To gather information concerning the effects of changing time zone boundaries in Indiana, DOT is holding four public hearings. This notice provides the dates, times, locations, and agenda for these public hearings. The objective of the hearings is to provide State and local government representatives and the public an opportunity to comment on DOT's proposal concerning the time zone boundary in 18 Indiana counties. To aid us in our consideration of whether a time zone change would be ``for the convenience of commerce,'' which is the standard Congress established for these matters, DOT seeks comments on how the time zone change impacts on such things as economic, cultural, social, and civic activities and how time zone changes affect businesses, communication, transportation, and education.
