§ 1.308 Documentation of procurementactions; maintenance and dispositionof contract files.

(a) Each office performing purchas-ing, contract administration, or contractpaying functions shall maintain official

records of all actions with respect tosolicitations and contracts in accordancewith the provisions of this section, ex-cept that the application of these pro-visions to small purchases and othersimplified procurements covered by sub-part F Part 3 of this chapter, is optional.The head of each such office sball beresponsible for the establishment, -cur-rency, completeness, and review of thisdocumentation, and for Its final disposi-tion, In accordance with Supplement 2entitled "Contract File Maintenance,Closeout, and Disposition."

(b) The combination of official con-tract files listed In 52-101 shall containdocumentation of all actions taken withrespect to the contract, Including finaldisposition, sufficient to constitute a fullhistory of the transaction and permitready reconstruction of all stages of thetransaction, for the purpose of (1) pro-viding a complete background to assureinformed decisions at each step in theprocurement, (2) supporting actionstaken by personnel In the procurementcycle. (3) providing Information for re-views and investigations conducted bythe Department concerned, the Depart-ment of Defense, the General AccountingOffice, or others, and (4) furnishing ez-sential facts in the event of litigation orCongressional inquiries.

§ 1.311 "Buying in".

"Buying In" refers to the practice ofattempting to obtain a contract awardby knowingly offering a price or cost ezsti-mate less than anticipated coAs with theexpectation of either (a) Increasing thecontract price or estimated cost duringthe period of performance throughchange orders or other means., or (b)receiving future "follow-on" contractsat prices high enough to recover anylosses on the original "buy-in" contract.Such a practice Is not favored by the De-partment of Defense since its long-termeffects may diminish competition and itmay result in poor contract performance.Where there is reason to believe that"buying in" has occurred, contractingofficers shall assure that amounts therebyexcluded in the development of the orig-inal contract price are not recovered inthe pricing of change order. or of fol-low-on procurements subject to costanalysis.

§ 1.313 Procurement of parts.

(a) Any part, subassembly or compo-nent (hereinafter called "part") for mill-tary equipment, to be used for replenish-ment of stock, repair, or replacement,must be procured so as to assure the req-uisite safe, dependable, and effectiveoperation of the equipment. (Items pro-cured as spare parts are governed by the'"DOD High Dollar Spare Parts Break-out Program" described in DOD JointRegulation AR 715-22, NAVMATINSTP4200.33, APR 57-6, MCO P4200.13,DSAM 4105.2.) Where It is feasible to doso without impairing this assurance,parts should be procured on a competi-tive basis, as In the kind of cass de-scribed in paragraph (b) of this section.However, where this assurance can behad only if the parts are procured from

the original manufacturer of the equip-ment or his supplier, the procurementshould be restricted accordingly, as Inthe kind of cases described In paragraph(c) of this section.

(b) Parts that are fully Identified andcan be obtained from a number of knownsources, and parts for which fully ade-quate manufacturing drawings and anyother needed data are available (or canbe made available In keeping with thepollcles In Subpart B. Part 9 of thischapter) are to be procured on a com-petitive basis. In general. such parts areof a standard design configuration. TheyInclude Individual items that are sus-ceptible of separate procurement, suchas resistors, transformers, generators,spark plugs, electron tubes, or otherpart- having commercial equivalents.

(c) Parts not within the scope of para-graph (b) of this section generallyshould be procured (either directlyor indirectly) only from sources thathave satisfactorily manufactured orfurnished such parts In the past, unlessfully adequate data (including any nec-essary data developed at private ex-pense), test reszults, and quality asur-ance procedures, are available (or canreasonably be made available in keepingwith the policies in Subpart B, Part 9of this chapter) to asu the requisitereliability and interchangeability of theparts, and procurement on a competitivebasis would be consistentwith the a-ur-ance described In paragraph (a) of thissection. In asessIng this assurance, thenature and function of the equipmentfor which the part is needed should beconzidered. Parts qualifying under thiscriteria are normally sole source orsource controlled parts (see LIJISTD100) which exclusively provide the per-formance, Installation, and interchange-ability characteristics required for sre-cific critical applications. To llustrate,acceptable tolerances for a commercialtelevidon part may be far less stringentthan thoze for a comparable militaryradar part, permitting competitive pro-curement of the former but not of thelatter. The exactinz performance re-quirements of specially designed mili-tary equipment may demand that partsbe closely controlled and have provencapabilities of precise integration withthe system In which they operate, toa de ,ree that precludes the use of evenapparently Identical parts from newcources, since the functioning of thewhole may depend on latent character-isticG of each part which are not defi-nitely knovn.

(d) Vjbent an award is made to asource that has not previously producedthe item, the cognizant Government in-spection activity and the appropriatecontract administratfon office should benotified by the procurement contract-ing office that the contractor will be pro-ducing the item for the first time.

In support of this policy, Govern-ment purchases of jewel bearings shallbe made from that plant in all caseswhere it can meet purchase require-ments. Additionally, all procurements ofItems containing jewel bearings shallprovide, in the solicitations and result-ing contracts, a requirement that jewelbearings in the quantities, and of thetypes and sizes necessary for the enditems to be supplied under the contract,be purchased from the William LangerJewel Bearing Plant and be incorporatedin the delivered items, subject to thecriteria provided in paragraphs (b), (c),and (d) of this section, except:

(1) When quantity requirements, qual-ity standards, or delivery requirementscannot be satisfied by bearings manu-factured at the William Langer JewelBearing Plant;

(2) For purchases of commercial enditems or of military end items havingjeweled components used in commercialend items, when the quantities of suchend items or components are such thatthe contracting officer either knows orreasonably expects that all such com-mercial end items or commercial com-ponents of military end items are al-ready manufactured and available fromthe stock of any dealer, wholesaler, dis-tributor, or manufacturer; or

(3) For bearings used in Items that areto be procured and used outside theUnited States, its possessions, and PuertoRico.

(b) In order to assure that all biddersor offerors are competing on the samebasis, it is necessary that the solicita-tion for items containing jewel bearingsclearly state:

(1) The successful contractor will berequired to purchase (directly or throughsubcontractors, as appropriate) WilliamLanger Jewel Bearing Plant bearings atprices established in the U.S. Govern-ment Jewel Bearing Price List then ineffect, and to incorporate such bearingsin the items to be delivered; and

(2) Bids or proposals are to be predi-cated on this requirement.

If it should occur, after award, that theWilliam Langer Jewel Bearing Plant re-jects the contractor's (or subcontrac-tor's) purchase order entirely or in part,the contractor (or subcontractor) shallbe required to so notify the contractingofficer who will effect an equitable adjust-ment in the contract price to reflect anycosts or savings accruing to contractor byreason of any price differential for suchbearings, pursuant to the clause of thiscontract entitled "Changes."

(c) To the extent William LangerJewel Bearing Plant bearings are fungi-ble with other bearings and it is not prac-tical or would be costly to segregate jewelbearing inventories or work in processfor items to be furnished the Govern-ment from that to be furnished commer-cial customers, or for other similar rea-sons, it may be in the Government's in-terest to waive the use requirements atthe discretion of the contracting officer.No waiver will be granted to prospective

contractors prior to award and no assur-ance will be given prior to award to anyprospective contractors that such waiverwill be granted after award. Minor In-convenience to contractors alone will notsatisfy the need for demonstrating thatthe Government's interests are served bysuch waiver. When the use requirementis waived, an equitable adjustment forcost savings resulting therefrom shall

%be made.(d) In circumstances where a pro-

curement is not exempt from this pro-cedure but it would be impractical orcontrary to the Government's best inter-est to require actual use of all of theWilliam Langer Jewel Bearing Plantbearings required to be purchased, thecontracting officer may provide in thesolicitation and resulting contract thata minimum fixed percentage of the totalbearings requirements be of WilliamLanger Jewel Bearing Plant origin, orthat William Langer Jewel Bearing Plantbearings be purchased for and used in acertain number of the total items to besupplied.

Procurement procedures of special ap-plication to research and developmentcontracts are set forth In this subpart,and in certain instances other portions ofthis subchapter having particular sig-nificance to research and developmentcontracts are cross-referenced herein.This subpart, however, does not purportto contain or cros-reference all provi-sions of this subchapter applying to re-search and development contracts. Otherprovisions of this subchapter are alsoapplicable to research and developmentcontracts and shall be adhered to whereapplicable.

§ 4.101 Definitions.

(a) The following terms and cate-gories relating to "research and develop-ment" are those set forth by the Depart-ment of Defense for management ofRDT&E programs. However, the term"research and development" as used inthis regulation ordinarily encompassesonly the first six categories below. Gen-erally, It does not cover categories sub-paragraphs (7) and (8) of this para-graph. For example, construction of rec-reational facilities at an installation usedexclusively or generally for research anddevelopment would not be procurementof "research and development" underthis subchapter. Nevertheless, In an ex-ceptional case, depending upon the par-ticular facts, some kinds of work withincategories In subparagraphs (7) and (8)could be "research and development"within this subehapter.

(1) Research. Includes all effort di-rected toward increased knowledge ofnatural phenomena and environmentand efforts directed toward the solu-tion of problems In the physical, behav-ioral and social sciences that have noclear direct military application. Itwould, thus. by definition, include allbasic research and, in addition, that ap-plied research directed toward the ex-pansion of knowledge in various scientificareas. It does not include efforts directed

10161

to prove the feasibility of solutions ofproblems of immediate military Impor-tance or time-oriented investigationsand developments.

(2) Exploratory development. In-cludes all effort directed toward the solu-tion of specific military problems, shortof major development projects. This typeof effort may vary from fairly fundamen-tal applied research to quite sophisti-cated bread-board hardware, study, pro-graming, and planning efforts. It wouldthus include studies, investigations andminor development effort. The dominantcharacteristic of this category of effortis that It be pointed toward specific mili-tary problem areas with a view towarddevelopment and evaluating the feas-bility and practicability of proposed solu-tions and determining their parameters.

(3) Advanced development. Includesall effort directed toward projects whichhave moved into the development ofhardware for experimental or opera-tional test. It Is characterized by lineItem projects and program control isexercised on a project basis. A furtherdescriptive characteristic lies in the de-sign of such Items being directed towardhardware for test or experimentation asoppoced to Items designed and engi-neered for eventual Service use.

(4) Concept formulation. Describesthe activities preceding a decision tocarry out Engineering Development orOperational Systems Development. Theseactivities include accomplishment ofcomprehensive system studies and ex-perimental hardware efforts under Ex-ploratory and Advanced Development,and are prerequisite to a decision to carryout Engineering or Operational SystemsDevelopment.

(5) Contract definition. (Formerly re-ferred to as Project Definition Phase)-Is that phase during which preliminarydesign and engineering are verified oraccomplished, and firm contract andmanagement planning are performed.

(6) Engineering development. In-cludes all effort directed toward thosedevelopment procrams being engineeredfor Service use but which have not yetbeen approved for procurement or oper-ation. This area Is characterized by ma-jor line Item projects and program con-trol will be exercised by review of Indi-vidual projects.

(7) Operational system development.Includes all effort directed toward devel-opment, engineering and test of systems,support pro rams, vehicles and weaponsthat have been approved for productionand Service deployment. This area isincluded for convenience in consideringall RDT&E projects. All Items in this areaare major line Item projects which ap-pear as 1DT&E Costs of Weapons Sys-tems Elements in other programs. Pro-grain control will thus be exercised byreview of the individual research anddevelopment effort in each WeaponSystem Element.

(8) Management and Support. In-cludes all effort directed toward supportof Installations or operations requiredfor general research and developmentuse. Included would be military con-ftruction of a general nature unrelated

FEDERAL REGISTER, VOL 32, NO. 132-TUESDAY, JULY 11, 1967

RULES AND REGULATIONS

to specific programs, maintenance sup-port of laboratories, operation andmaintenance of test ranges, and main-tenance of test aircraft and ships. Costsof laboratory personnel, either in-houseor contract-operated, would be assignedto appropriate projects or as a line in theResearch, Exploratory Development, orAdvanced Development Program areas,as appropriate. Military constructioncosts directly related to a major develop-ment program will be included in theappropriate element.

(b) "Educational or other nonprofitorganization" means any corporation,foundation, trust, or institution operatedfor scientific, educational, or medicalpurposes, not organized for profit, nopart of the net earnings of which inuresto the profit of any private shareholderor individual.

(o) "Unsolicited proposal" is a re-search or development proposal which ismade to the Government by a prospec-tive contractor without prior formal orinformal solicitation from a purchasingactivity. See also §§ 4.106-1a) and4.106-2(d) (2).

§ 4.102 General policy.A fundamental mission of research

and development programs is to main-tain scientific and technological superi-ority requisite to promote and advancethe effectiveness of military operations.The accomplishment of this mission re-quires the broadest possible base of con-tractor and subcontractor sources in-cluding the optimum use of manpowerand resources. It is essential that the besttechnical competence be located and fullyutilized. The procurement pattern of re-search and development must be respon-sive to the achievement of these goals ona timely basis.

§ 4.103 Publicizing procurement actionsand expanding sources.

The Departments shall continuallysearch for and develop information onsources (including small business con-cerns) competent to perform researchand development. Advance publicity, in-cluding use of the Commerce BusinessDaily (see § 1.1003-4 of this chapter) tothe fullest extent practicable, shall begiven for this purpose. The search shouldinclude (a) a review of relevant data orbrochures furnished by sources seekingresearch and development work and (b) acooperative effort by technical personnel,small business specialists, and contract-ing officers to obtain information andrecommendations with respect to po-tintial sources and to consider the de-sirability of seeking other sources bypublication of proposed procurements, inaddition to the synopsis requirement.

§ 4.104 Method of contracting.

In research and development procure-ments it is generally not possible to for-mulate precise specifications necessaryfor formal advertising and, therefore, ne-gotiation is necessary.'The inherent dif-ficulties in obtaining research and de-velopment by formal advertising are rec-ognized by the exception in § 3.211 of thischapter. However, two-step formal ad-

vertising as stated in Subpart B, Part2 of this chapter, may be useful, forexample, in the case of an advanced de-velopmental project. While the use ofnegotiation Is the general rule for re-search and development contracts, thisdoes not diminish the obligation to ob-tain competition to the maximum prac-ticable extent. (See Subparts A and B,Part 3 of this chapter.)

§ 4.105 Statement of work.

(a) The preparation and use of a clearand complete statement of work is essen-tial to sound contracting for researchand development. In research, explora-tory development and advanced develop-ment, statements of work must be in-dividually tailored by technical and con-tracting personnel to attain the desireddegree of flexibility for contractor cre-ativity, both in submitting proposals andin contract performance. Careful dis-tinction must be drawn between level-of-effort work statements, which essentiallyrequire the furnishing of technical effortand a report on the results thereof, andtask completion type work statementswhich often require development of tan-gible end items designed to meet specificperformance characteristics.

(b) In preparing statements of work,the following elements shall be con-sidered:

(1) A general description of the re-quired objectives and desired results;

(2) Background Information helpfulto a clear understanding of the require-ments and how they evolved;

(3) Technical considerations, suchas any known specific phenomena ortechniques;

(4) A detailed description of the tech-nical requirements and subordinatetasks;

(5) A description of reporting require-ments and any other deliverable items,such as data, experimental hardware,mock-ups, prototypes, etc., and

(6) Other special considerations.

§ 4.106 Selection of research and de-velopment contractors.

§ 4.106-1 Selection of sources.(a) General. Through its research and

development programs, the Departmentof Defense must seek the most advancedscientific knowledge attainable and thebest possible equipment, weapons, andweapon systems that can be devised andproduced. This means two things. First,it means seeking the best scientific andtechnological sources consistent with thedemands of the proposed procurementfor the best mix of cost, performancesand schedules. Second, it means unrnemit-ting efforts to increase the number ofqualified sources, and to encourage par-ticipation by small business concerns, aswell as others, in Defense research anddevelopment. See also § 1.903 of thischapter.

(b) Small business sources. (1) Con-tracting officers, technical personnel, andsmall business specialists shall cooper-atively seek and develop information onthe technical competence of small busi-ness concerns for research and develop-ment contracts. Small business special-

Ists shall regularly bring to the attentionof contracting officers and technical per-sonnel descriptive data, brochures, andother information as to small businessqconcerns that are apparently competentto perform research or development workin fields in which the purchasing activityis interested.

(2) In order to cooperate with theSmall Business Administration In carry-ng out Its responsibility of assisting

small business concerns to obtain con-tracts for research and development,contracting offIcers, technical person-nel and small business specialists shall,upon request, provide to authorized SBArepresentatives Information necessary tounderstand the Government's needs con-cerning research and development pro-grams under consideration for specificfuture procurement actions. Normally,this information shall be provided to SBArepresentatives assigned to a purchasingactivity, as early as practicable, and shaUcover the Government's requirements foreach proposed research and developmentprocurement exceeding $10,000. To themaximum extent feasible, SBA shall beafforded a minimum of 15 working daysto provide pertinent Information con-cerning qualified potential small businesssources developed through Its investi-gation of the capabilities of specific firmsin the particular field of research anddevelopment covered by such procure-ments. Full evaluation shall be given toany such information In selecting quali-fied sources. Exception to the policy ofproviding SBA a minimum 15 workingday interval to recommend additionalqualified small research and developmentsources for a proposed procurement willbe permitted only In those cases wherethe head of the purchasing activity or hisdesignated representative advises theSBA representative that such actionwould result In unjustifiable delay.

(e) Recommendations by technicalpersonnel. Recommendations as to whichpotential sources are technically quali-fied shall be made by cognizant technicalpersonnel after review of the informa-tion obtained as a result of advance pub-licity (see § 4.103), and, as appropriate,on the basis of discussion with potentialsources (either singly or in a group),correspondence or suitable surveys.

(d) Research and development pools.See § 1.302-3 of this chapter.

(e) Unsolicited proposals. (1 Ulnso-licited proposals may be the product oforiginal thinking and generally are theproperty of the organization or indi-vidual who presents them. They areoffered in the hope that the Governmentwill contract with the offeror for furtherresearch on, or development of, the Ideasthey contain. Accordingly, it Is Impor-tant that such proposals received by pur-chasing activities be handled in a man-ner which will encourage prospectivecontractors to disclose to the Govern-ment ideas which they have orIginated,conceived, or developed.

(2) The submitter of an unsolicitedproposal may mark It with a legend, suchas that provided In § 3.507-1(a) of thischapter, restricting the disclosure and

RULES AND REGULATIONS

use of data in the proposal. If a pro-posal is so marked, the terms of thelegend shall be compiled with.

(3) If the contracting officer receivesan unsolicited proposal marked with amore restricted legend than that pro-vided in § 3.507-1(a) of this chapter,then he shall immediately return theproposal to the submitter with a letterstating that the proposal cannot be con-sidered because it is impracticable forthe Government to comply with the leg-end (and pointing out specifically whythis is so), but that the proposal will beconsidered if it is resubmitted with asatisfactorily revised legend or with thelegend provided in § 3.507-1(a) of thischapter.

(4) If the contracting officer receivesan unsolicited proposal without any re-strictive legend, he shall place a coversheet on the proposal or otherwise clearlymark it substantially as follows-andthe terms of the notice shall be compliedwith-unless the submitter gives a clearwritten indication that he does not wishto impose any restrictions on the dis-closure or use of the data contained inthe proposal.

UmS5OLICTrED ftOPOSAL

USE OF DATA ltr=

All Government personnel handling thisproposal shal exercise EXTREME CARE toinsure that the Information contained hereinis NOT DISCLOSED outside the Governmentand is 'NOT DUPLICATED, USED, OR DIS-CLOSED In whole or part for any purposeother than to evaluate the proposal, withoutthe written permission of the submitter (ex-cept that if a contract is awarded on thebasis of this proposal, the terms of the con-tract shall control disclosure and use).

This notice does not limit the Govern-ment's right to use Information contained inthe proposal if it is obtainable from anothersource without restriction.

This is a Government notice, and shall'not by itself be construed to impose anyliability upon the Government or Govern-ment personnel for any disclosure or use ofdata contained in this proposal.

(5) The submitter of an unsolicitedproposal is not necessarily entitled topreferential treatment in the award ofany contract because of his submissionof such a proposal. See § 4.106-2(d) (2).

§ 4.106-2 Solicitation.(a) To reduce the number of technical

proposals, the preparation of which canbe both costly and wasteful of scientificor engineering manpower, contractingofficers should request proposals onlyfrom sources which have been technicallyevaluated and found qualified to per-form research or development in thespecific field of science or technology in-volved. Where several sources are foundfully qualified technically, proposals gen-erally @hall be solicited from each suchsource. Sources which become known asA result of synopses or other means ofpublicizing requirements shall be sentrequests for proposals if such sourceshave been technically evaluated and de-termined reasonably qualified to per-form, and possess the necessary securityclearance. When a source not initiallysolicited requests a copy of a solicitationand such source has been technically

evaluated within the past 6 months anddetermined not qualified, he may be soAdvised and his request denied. In theevent such source has not been techni-cally evaluated within the past 6 monthsa copy of the request for proposal shall befurnished but only after advice has beengiven to the source making the requestas to the reasons for the limited solicita-tion and, as appropriate, the unlikel-hood of any other source being able toqualify for a contract award under thecircumstances. The formal solicitationprocess described above is not the onlymethod of entering into contracts forresearch and development. The ongoingresearch and development work pursuedin industrial laboratories is lproducingideas and products of interest to theGovernment; this Is especially true inthe exploratory and advanced develop-ment segment of the research and de-velopment spectrum. In the R&D areaswhere there has been unique and signifi-cant industrial accomplishment by a spe-cific concern, the establishment of spec-ifications for solicitation of others maydefeat the purpose of taking advantage ofthis industrial initiative. When a con-tractor has a new Idea or product in thefields of exploratory development or ad-vance development there should be nohesitancy to discuss It with him, encour-age him to submit a proposal, and tonegotiate directly with him. SubJect to §3.211 of this chapter, this can be donewithout a formal solicitation. Wherethere is no substantial question as to thechoice of the source, as Illustrated inparagraph d) of this section, solilcita-tions may be limited to a single source.

(b) In soliciting proposals for the con-duct of research and exploratory devel-opment, It may be desirable for the Gov-ernment to furnish prospective con-tractors with certain information toelaborate on the proposed statement ofwork, permit optimum response by of-ferors, and Allow more timely and com-parable evaluation of proposals by theGovernment. This information normallyshould consist of the Government's esti-mate of the scientific and technical man-effort, or other reasonable indicators, Itenvisions when it is not possible to de-scribe the magnitude of the proposedwork to a sufficiently definitive degree.For example, the estimated effort may beexpressed in terms of numbers of man-months or years in particular occupa-tional categories. This technique may beappropriate In cases of contracts for re-search studies, investigations, or labora-tory scale evaluations of feasiblity wherethe Government desires to limit thescope of effort or depth of research.Where the degree of effort type of in-formation is furnished, it should be madeclear that such information is advisoryonly and is not cause for restricting whatthe contractor believes to be a meritorioustechnical proposal

(c) In addition to paragraph (a) ofthis section, exploratory requests maybe used to determine the existence ofideas or prior work in speciflc fields ofresearch. However, the request for suchinformation shall clearly state that Itdoes not impose any obligation on the

Government or signify a firm Intentionof the Government to enter Into a con-tract.

d) The following examples are illus-trative of circumstances where there maybe no substantial question as to choiceof source:

(1) As a result of thorough technicalevaluation, only one source is found fullyqualified to perform the proposed work.

(2) The purpose of the contract is toexplore an unsolicited proposal whichoffers significant sclentific or technolo~i-cal promise, represents the product oforiginal thinking, and was submitted inconfidence by one source.

(3) Where the purpose of the contractis to take advantage of unique and sig-nificant industrial accomplishment by aspecific concern, or to insure that a newproduct or idea of a specific concern isgiven financial support.

(e) In all procurements of research ordevelopment in which no small businesssource was solicited for a proposal, astatement shall be included in the solici-tation file setting forth the reasons fornot soliciting small businez.

§ 4.106-3 Conduct of negotiations.

See § 3.804 and 3.805 of this chapter.The contracting officer should make cer-tain that each prospective contractorfully understands the details of the vari-ous phases of the Government's require-ment, especially the statement of work.This may be best accomplished by con-ferences between a prospective con-tractor, the contracting offlcer, and ap-propriate technical personnel, particu-larly where there is doubt that a workstatement is understood or will be in-terpreted correctly by prospective con-tractors.§ 4.106-4 Evaluation for award.

(a) Generally, research and develop-ment contracts should be awarded tothose organizations, Including educa-tional organizations, which have thehighest competence in the specific fieldof science or technology involved. How-ever, awards should not be made for re-search or development capabilities thatexceed those needed for the successfulperformance of the work.

b) Before determining the technicalcompetence of prospective contractors,and recommending to the contracting of-fieer the concern or concerns that theyconsider most technically competent,cognizant technical personnel shall con-sider the following:

(1) The contractor's understanding ofthe scope of the work as shown by thecentiflc or technical approach proposed;

(2) Availability and competence of ex-perienced engineering, scientific, or othertechnical personnel;

(3) AvaIlabillty, from any source, ofnecessary research, test, and productionfacilities;

(4) Experience or pertinent novelideas In the specific branch of scienceor technology involved; and

(5) The contractor's willingnes to de-vote his resources to the proposed workwith appropriate diligence.

FEDERAL REGISTER, VOL 32, NO. 132-TUESDAY, JULY 11, 1967

10163

RULES AND REGULATIONS

(c) In determining to whom the con-tract shall be awarded, the contractingofficer shall consider not only technicalcompetence, but also all other pertinentfactors including management capabili-ties, cost controls including the natureand effectiveness of any cost reductionprogram (see J 3.101(h) of this chapter),and past performance in adhering tocontract requirements, weighing eachfactor in accordance with the require-ments of the particular procurement(see § 1.903 of this chapter). The con-tracting officer shall notify those sourceswhose proposals or offers have been de-termined to be unacceptable of that de-cision in accordance with § 3.508 of thischapter.

(d) In evaluating proposals for con-tracts in excess of $1 million foradvanced development, engineering de-velopment, operational systems devel-opment, and followon or concurrentproduction contracts, the Source Se-lection Advisory Council or any otherperson or group acting in a similarcapacity shall obtain from the DefenseDocumentation C e n t e r, Attention:DDC-OSB, Cameron Station, Alex-andria, Va. 22314 (see § 4.117), atranscript of the performance evalua-tions of all contractors submitting ac-ceptable proposals, or a statement thatthere is no record on file. This transcriptor statement may be obtained for a pro-curement below $1 million. This infor-mation shall be furnished within 3 work-ing days from receipt of the request bythe Defense Documentation Center.

§ 4.106-5 Evaluation of price and costs.

(a) While cost or price should not bethe controlling factor in selecting a con-tractor for a research or developmentcontract, cost or price should not be dis-regarded in the choice of the contractor.It is important to evaluate a proposedcontractor's cost or price estimate, notonly to determine whether the estimateis reasonable, but also to determine hisunderstanding of the project and abilityto organize and perform the contract.The most useful tools for this purposeare price analysis and cost analysis (see§ 3.807-2 of this chapter.

(b) Price analysis generally considersthe overall reasonableness of the pro-posals in relation to the total contem-plated expenditures and the extent andnature of the task scheduled to be ac-complished. In most research and devel-opment contracts, the inability to definespecifications and the nature of the enditems prevent the effective use of certaintechniques of price analysis, such as com-parisons with prior quotations and cur-rent prices and evaluations in terms ofquantitative yardsticks. The conclusionsreached by price analysis techniquesmust be supported by cost analysis pro-cedures, used to examine the details ofthe offerors' proposals.

(c) The analysis of cost factors beginswith an evaluation of the reliability ofthe offeror's cost estimating proceduresand the dependability of his cost con-trols, as demonstrated by his history ofcost management in the performance ofother contracts or by his establishment

of sound practices for this purpose. Thecost analysis proceeds with a critical ex-amination of the composition of eachcost element in terms of Its expected ap-plication to the objectives of the con-tract, and its conformance to the ac-cepted principles of alocability and rea-sonableness. (See Subpart C, Part 15, and§ 15.201 of this chapter.) A Governmentcost estimate may help in projectingtools for these purposes and may de-velop the expected incidence of variouscost factors in relation to performancephases, planned segments, or identifi-able "milestones." This estimate shouldprovide a summary forecast of the time,effort, materials, equipment, and serv-ices necessary to accomplish the researchor development objective. The compari-son and reconciliation of the Govern-ment cost estimate with the offeror's costestimate for the same phases, segments,or events should bring into focus anyareas of excessive or insufficient empha-sis and provide a foundation for mean-ingful discussions with the offeror.

(d) Special care should be exercisedto comply with §§ 15.205-1 and 15.205-33of this chapter in the allowance of ad-vertising costs under § 15.309-1 of thischapter.

§ 4.106-6 Profit or fee.See §§ 3.405-1(c), 3.405-5(c), 3.805-2,

3.806, 3.807-10(d), and 3.808 of thischapter.

§ 4.106-7 Documentation.

Contract files for research and devel-opment procurement shall be fully docu-mented to include the basis and reasonsfor the selection of the sources solicitedand for the award. Such documentationshould be adequate to justify the selec-tion of the contractor over others whoseproposals, from the standpoint of somesingle factor (such as lower estimatedcosts or shorter performance time),might appear more advantageous to theGovernment. (See § 1.308 of thischapter.)94.107 Concept formulation and con-

tract definition.

Policies governing concept formula-tion and contract definition as set forthin AR-705-5, SEC N A V Instruction3900.33 and APR 80-20 are applicable toall new (or major modifications of exist-ing) engineering developments and oper-ational systems developments estimatedto require total cumulative RDT&Efinancing in excess of 25 million dollars,or estimated to require a total produc-tion investment In excess of 100 milliondollars, un 1 e s s specific waivers aregranted by written approval of the Di-rector of Defense Research and Engi-neering. Other projects may be requiredto be conducted in accordance with theseprocedures at the discretion of the indi-vidual Departments or as directed byDDR&E. Concept formulation and con-tract definition have a significant im-pact on both procurement and researchand development personnel, particularlyIn their advanced planning for a majordevelopment program. It is essential thatengineering and operational system de-

velopment policies be considered earlyin concept formulation in order for pro-curement to be conducted efficiently andIn consonance with these policies.§ 4.108 Grants for basic research.

Grants are authorized under 42 U.S.C.1891 for basic research at educational in-stitutions and other nonprofit organiza-tions whose primary purpose is the con-duct of scientific research. The policiesand procedures for grants are prescribedby other Department of Defense direc-tives as implemented In DepArtmentalprocedures.§ 4.109 Types of contract" most appli-

cable for research and development.See Subpart D, Part 3 of this chapter.

§ 4.110 Cost-sharing policy.(a) It is the policy of the Department

of Defense to utilize cost-sharing in re-search or development procurementswith contractors, other than educationalinstitutions and foreign governments,only when there is a high probability thatthe contractor will receive substantialpresent or future commercial benefits.Accordingly, cost-sharing contracts maybe used in such procurements only when:

(1) The contracting officer shows con-clusive evidence that there Is a highprobability that the contractor will re-ceive substantial present or future com-mercial benefits, and

(2) The Head of a Procuring Activityapproves the use of 'such a contract inwriting.It should be recognized that these con-trols do not apply to Jointly sponsoredresearch or development work with edu-cational institutions or to cost-sharingarrangements between the United Statesand foreign governments.

(b) Willingness to share costs shouldnot be a factor in competitive sourceselection. Department of Defense ob-jectives of fostering competition andfurthering the Small Business Programwill be inhibited unless competition isconducted on terms that provide equi-table opportunity for all eligible sources,An award based on ability to share costsrather than on competence does notprovide such equitable opportunity andmay preclude securing the services ofthe best qualified source.

(c) Purchasing activities should notinclude in solicitations statements ofwork which would require more fundsfor completion than will be available.Similarly, the prospect of preferred con-sideration for award of a possible futurecontract should not be offered or im-plied as an incentive to induce con-tractors to enter into cost-sharing ar-rangements.§ 4.111 Special use allowances for re-

search facilities acquired by educ.tional institutions.

(a) Definitions. As used in this sec-tion:

(1) "Special use allowance" means anegotiated direct or indirect allowancefor buildings, structures, and real prop-erty, other than land, computed at anannual rate in excess of the rate which

FEDERAL REGISTER, VOL 32, NO. 132-TUESDAY, JULY 11, 1967

10164

RULES AND REGULATIONS

normally would be allowed under Sub-part C, Part 15 of this chapter; and

(2) "Reseaxch facility" means realproperty, other than land, and includesstructures, alterations, and improve-ments, acquired for the purpose of con-ducting scientific research under con-tracts with agencies of the Departmentof Defense.

(b) Polck. The expanding require-ments of the Department of Defense forthe performance of scientific researchprograms by educational institutions maycreate special situations wherein the ac-quisition or construction of additionalresearch facilities by such institutions Isessential for the effective performance ofscientific research programs-of major im-portance to the Department of Defense.Educational institutions are expected tofurnish facilities required for the per-formance of Defense contracts, and theextent of reimbursement by the Gov-ernment for the research programs ofsuch institutions shall be governed bythe principles set forth in Subpart C,Part 15 of this chapter. However, in cer-tain limited situations an educational in-stitution may be unable to provide cap-ital for new laboratories or other ex-panded facilities necessitated bDefensecontracts unless the institution is givenGovernmental assistance in return forthe risks and expenses it assumes in ac-quiring or constructing. such facilities.Special use allowances constitute ameans for recognizing these risks andexpenses on the part of the educationalinstitution and also provide a basis forpermitting essential governmental re-search programs to go forward. The re-sort to special use allowances as providedby this section is an extraordinary typeof arrangement and constitutes an ex-ception to the provisions for normal useallowances contained in § 15.309-10 ofthis chapter. Any specific agreement pro-viding for a special use allowance shallbe negotiated on a case-by-case basisusing the criteria established herein.

(c) Authorization of special use allow-ances. The Secretary concerned, or hissole designee for the purpose, may ap-prove special use allowances for the ac-quisition or construction costs of researchfacilities financed by educational in-stitutions only when all of the followingconditions are met:

(1) The research facility is essentialto the performance of Department of De-fense contracts;

(2) The program requirements cannotbe met practically and effectively by ex-isting -facilities, either Government ornon-Government;

(3) The proposed agreement for thespecial use allowances represents a soundbusiness arrangement;

(4) It is undesirable or impractical forthe Government to provide Government-owned facilities for the performance of'the research; and

(5) The proposed use of the researchfacility is in consonance with the under-

.lying objective of the Government ingranting the special use allowance.

(d) Negotiation and administrationof contract& providing for special useallowances. The negotiation and admin-

istration of contracts providing for rpe-cial use allowances are subject to theconditions set forth In subparagraphs (1)through (13) of this paragraph:

(1) The terms of the agreement forspecial use allowances authorized hereinshall be specified or incorporated by ref-erence in the applicable contracts.

(2) Where the special use allowanceis based on the total acquisition cost, nonormal use allowance or other use or de-preciation charge will apply during thespecial allowance period nor after theeducational institution has recovered thetotal acquisition cost under Governmentcontracts or from other users. Where thespecial use allowance is based on lessthan total acquisition cost of the re-search facility, the agreement willspecify whether any normal use allow-ance or other use or depreciation chargewill apply to the balance during the spe-cial use allowance period; however, nomore than the normal use allowancecomputed in accordance with Subpart C,Part 15 of this chapter may be appliedthereafter to the balance.

(3) During the period of the specialuse allowance, and for subsequent pe-riods to the extent agreed upon, the re-search facility shall be available for Gov-ernment research use on a priority basisover non-Government use. Any sgnif-icant use during such period other thanthat which justified the special use al-lowance shall be subject to prior conzentof the cognizant approval authorityspecified in this section.

(4) Special use allowances are applU-cable only in years In which the Govern-ment has contracts in effect with theeducational institution for research to beconducted in the facility. The Govern-ment has no liability to the educationaIinstitution for the special use allowancein any year in which there is no Govern-ment contract. In any year when thelevel of research effort under Govern-ment contracts has been reduced to apoint where the special use allowance isexcessive in relation to the extent of theGovernment research funding, the par-ties may negotiate a special use allow-ance for that year at a mutually accept-able rate.

(5) Where more than one Govern-ment contract s to be performed in theresearch facility, special use allowancesgenerally should be allocated to usingcontracts on an equitable basis.

(6) If during the period when a spe-cial use allowancis in effect, any sub-stantial use is made of the research facil-ity for parties other than the Govern-ment, only an allocable share of the spe-cial use allowance shall be charged tothe Government.(7) Special use allowances shall not

-include any maintenance, utilities, orother operational costs.

(8) Generally, the period for whicha special use allowance is authorizedshall be at least 10 years. However, ashorter period of time Is authorizedwhere the total amount to be allowed I-less than acquisition cost for the re-search facility.

(9) Reimbursements under contractsfor special use dllowances shall not corn-

mence until the research facility I- oc-cupied and used for research under thecontract. However, equitable adjustmentsmay be made in the special use allow-ance during the construction period ifthe rezearch facility is partially used forreszearch under the contract.

(10) Determination of the amount ofa rpecial use allowance shall be based onthe comparative need for the researchfacility by the Dapartment of Defenseand by the educational institution. In noevent shal the institution be paid morethan the acquisition costs.

(11) In estabI!shing the annual spe-clal use allowance, due considerationshall be given to rental costs for similarspace in the area where the researchfacility is to be located.

(12) No payment shall be made to theeducational institution for costs of landor interest charges on capital, used orborrowed, for the acquisition of the re-search facility.

(13) Information copies of each sp2-cial use allowance agreement negotiatedshall be furnished to each duthorlzlngofficial specified in paragraph (c) ofthis ection and to the Director of De-fense Research and Engineering, Officeof the Secretary of Defense.

§4.112 Plating suLcontracts for re-search and development effort.

Since the celection of research or de-velopment contractors is based uponseeldng the best scientific and technolog-eal sources, it I- important that thecontractor celected on this basis does notin turn subcontract technical or scientificwork without prior approval of the con-tracting officer. The clause prescribed in§ 7.402-8 of this chapter, for cost-re-Imburzement type rezearch and develop-ment contracts, require. prior writtenconsent of the contracting officer for theplacement of any subcontract which hasexperimen ta, developmental, or researchwork as one of its purposes. During thenegotiation of the contract, it is impera-tive that the contracting officer obtaincomplete information concerning thecontractor's plans for subcontractingany portion of the research or develop-ment effort. See §§ 1.906, 3.807-10 and23.201-2 of this chapter.

§ 4.113 Scientific and technical reports.

(a) Scientific and Technical Reportsare documents written for the perma-nent record to document results obtainedfrom and recommendations made onsclentiflc and technical activities relat-Ing to a single project, task, or contractor relating to a small group of closelyconnected efforts within the Departmentof Defense Research and DevelopmentPro-ram. A completed Document Con-trol Data-R&D (DD Form 1473) is tobe included in each copy of a scientificor technica report, required by the con-tract. (See § 1M.E07 of this chapter.)

(b) Wherever a scientific or technicalreport I- required as a product of theResearch. Development, Test, and Evalu-ation Effort, the contracting officer willzsure that the requirement for a com-pleted DD Form 1473 Is clearly statedand that a complete DD Form 1473 is in-

eluded with each copy of the requiredscientific and technical reports.

(c) Research and development con-tracts are required to contain appropri-ate data clauses as prescribed in SubpartB, Part 9 of this chapter, which usuallyprovide, among other things, for the re-production and use for any purpose ofthe Government of any or all of the in-formation to be provided under the con-tract. Contracting officers shall requirecontractors to furnish all such informa-tion resulting from research or develop-ment contracts. Scientific and technicalreports should be reproduced as econom-ically as practicable, consistent with thereporting needs of the Government.

(d) It is important that the results ofresearch and development contracts bemade readily available to Governmentactivities, and to non-Government or-ganizations and persons who have a needto know in accordance with proceduresof the Military Departments. DefenseDocumentation Center, Cameron Sta-tion, Alexandria, Va. 22314, provides acentral service for the interchange ofscientific and technical information ofvalue to Department of Defense agenciesand contractors.

§ 4.114 Data under research and de-velopment contracts.

(a) It Is Imperative that all researchand development contracts carefullyspecify the data to be delivered under thecontract since the Basic Data clause re-quires delivery only of "Subject Data"and defines "Subject Data" as data tobe delivered under the contract.

(b) In planning a developmental pro-curement, when subsequent productioncontracts are contemplated, considera-tion should be given to the need and timerequired for obtaining a procurementpackage. The term "procurement pack-age" means plans, drawings, specifica-tions, and other descriptive informationand data nedessary to achieve competi-tion in production contracts.

54.115 Insurance under research anddevelopment contracts.

See Part 10 of this chapter.

§4.115-1 Contractor immunity fromliability for torts.

In the case of cost-reimbursementtype contracts where nonprofit educa-tional institutions or other contractorsdo not carry insurance either becauseas charitable organizations they claimimmunity from liability for torts or, inthe case of State institutions, because theState law does not permit them to ex-pend their funds for insurance pre-miums, the requirements of the Insur-ance-Liability clause, § 7.203-22 of thischapter, may be modified to recognizea claim of partial immunity as providedin I 7.402-26(a) of this chapter or fora claim of total immunity as provided in§ 7.402-26(b) of this chapter.§ 4.115-2 Indemnification against un-

usually hazardous risks.

Under the authority provided by 10U.S.C. 2354, research and developmentcontracts may specifically include lan-guage to indemnify contractors against

liability on account of claims by thirdparties (including those of contractors'employees) for death, bodily injury, andloss of or damage to property, and forloss of or damage to the contractors'property, to the extent such liabilitiesarise out of the direct performance ofthe contract involved and from a riskdefined in the contract as unusuallyhazardous. (See Subpart G, Part 10 ofthis chapter.)§ 4.116 Government property under re-

search and development contracts.§ 4.116-1 General.

In research and development contractswith commercial organizations, theclauses relating to property furnished bythe Government or acquired by the con-tractor at Government expense are thesame as those used in other types of con-tracts. (See §§ 13.702 and 13.703 of thischapter.) Different clauses are pre-scribed for use in research and develop-ment contracts with educational or othernonprofit institutions where no profit orfee is involved. (See §§ 13.706 and 13.707of this chapter.)§ 4.116-2 Control of Government prop-

erty in possession of research anddevelopment contractors.

The basic requirements to be observedby the Departments for establishing andmaintaining control over GovernmentProperty as set forth in § 30.2 of thischapter are applicable to research anddevelopment contracts except, in con-tracts with educational or other non-profit organizations (executed on a non-profit basis), § 30.3 of this chapter isapplicable.§ 4.116-3 Providing Government pro-

duction and research property.See Subpart C, Part 13 of this chapter.

§ 4.116-4 Transfer of title to equip-ment to nonprofit educational or re-search institutions.

(a) General. This section Implements42 U.S.C. 1892 which gives the Depart-ment of Defense discretionary authorityto vest in nonprofit institutions of highereducation or nonprofit organizationswhose primary purpose is the conductof scientific research, without furtherobligation to the Government or on suchother terms and conditions as may beappropriate, title to equipment pur-chased with funds available for grantsor contracts for the conduct of basic orapplied research.

(b) Purpose of the legislation. Thegeneral purpose of the legislation Im-plemented by this section is to facilitatethe scientific research performed undercontract for the Government by the non-profit institutions and organizations de-scribed in paragraph (a) of this section.It is intended to permit the eliminationof the recordkeeping required when theGovernment retains title to equipmentfurnished or purchased under a researchcontract, in those cases where the costof such recordkeeping to the contractoror to the Government is out of propor-tion'to the value of the equipment. It isfurther intended to reduce where desira-

ble the time and labor involved informally circulating through the Gov-ernment long lists of highly specializedor minor items of equipment or in relo-cating major equipment when suchrelocation is impracticable or uneconom-Ical and not required for other researchprograms of the Government. Finally, Itis intended to provide a measure of ad-ministrative flexibility when, from thestandpoint of increased research effec-tiveness and in the absence of other De-partmental or Governmental require-ments, it is desirable to transfer title toequipment to such research contractors.

(c) Transfer of title. (1) Contractswith nonprofit institutions of higher ed-ucation or nonprofit organizations whoseprimary purpose Is the conduct of scien-tific research, shall provide, or shall beamended to provide, for transfer to con-tractors of title to each item of equip-ment having an acquisition cost of lessthan $200 and purchased with fundsavailable for grants or contracts for theconduct of basic or applied research.With respect to such equipment alreadyin possession of such contractors, thecontracting officer shall vest in the con-tractor title to all such low cost equip-ment at the time of amendment of theappropriate contract or as soon as prac-ticable thereafter. With respect to suchequipment to be acquired by the con-tractor for the account of the Govern-ment, the contracting officer shall vest Inthe contractor title to such equipmentupon receiving from the contractor awritten receipt pursuant to Item 305,§ 30.3 of this chapter. The requirementsof this section are not applicable totransfers of title that are precludedby controls governing the equipmentinvolved.

(2) With respect to equipment havingan acqutsition cost of $200 or more, con-tracts with such institutions and organi-zations may provide, or may be amendedto provide, that the contracting ofilcermay transfer title to the contractor. Tothe maximum extent possible, transferof title should be effected at the begin-ning of the contract or upon acquisitionof the equipment, but such transfer maybe effected at the beginning, during thecourse of, or at the end of a contractprovided:

(I) The equipment was purchasedwith grant or contract funds allocatedfor basic or applied scientific research;

(l) (a) Either the retention of titlein the Government would create an ad-ministrative burden not warranted bythe value of the equipment, or the keep-ing of inventory and records by the con-tractor would become prohibitivelycomplicated or expensive, or

(b) It would be impractical or un-economical to remove the equipmentfrom the contractor's plant:

(ii) The transfer of title will furtherthe scientific research objectives of theDepartment concerned; and

(iv) The transfer of title Is not pre-cluded by controls governing the equip-ment involved.

(3) The contracting officer may, whenprovision is made therefor by contract,vest in the contractor title to any Item

10167RULES AND REGULATIONS

of equipment having an acquisition costof from $200 to $3,000, inclusive, follow-Ing his written determination that thecriteria In subparagraph (2) of thisparagraph had been met. When the ac-quisition cost of an item of equipment IsIn excess of $3,000, the contracting officermay transfer title to the contractor uponthe written approval of the head of theprocuring activity or his designee. Suchapproval shall be given on the basis ofthe criteria in subparagraph (2) of thisparagraph and only after consideringwhether transfer of title is consistentwith any known need of the Departmentconcerned. (No formal screening is re-quired.) In addition, for items of equip-ment having an acquisition cost in ex-cess of $25,000, the approval of desig-nated representativesI of the Depart-ments must be secured. Such approvalshall be given within sixty (60) days,but only after a reasonable check, com-mensurate with the value of the iteminvolved, has established that there isno known requirement for the itemwithin the respective Departments.

(4) Where title to equipment is vestedpursuant to subparagraph (1) or (2) ofthis paragraph, the contractor shall bewithout further obligation to the Gov-ernment with respect to such equipment,except that the contractor must agree.as a condition to taking title, that nocharge will be made to the Governmentfor any depreciation, amortization, oruse charge with respect to such equip-ment under any existing or future Gov-ernment contract.

(d) Contract clauses. Where it is an-ticipated that in connection with a con-tract, title to equipment may be vested inthe contractor in accordance with thisparagraph, the alternate subparagraph(c) (2) of the clause in § 13.706 of thischapter shall be included in fixed-pricetype contracts, and the addition to sub-paragraph (c) (1) of the clause in § 13.707of this chapter shall be included in cost-reimbursement contracts.

§ 4.117 Contractor performance evalua-tion program.

The Contractor performance evalua-tion program is a procedure for deter-mining and recording the effectivenessof advanced-development (with meas-urable contractual commitments), en-gineering-development, and operational-systems-development and productioncontractors in meeting the performance,schedule, and cost provisions of theircontracts.

PART 73-RADIO BROADCASTSERVICES

Subpart G-Emergency Action Notifi-cation System and the EmergencyBroadcast System

In the matter of amendment ofSubyart G of Part 73 of the Commis-sion s rules and regulations-EmergencyBroadcast System (EBS):

1. The Commission has before it forconsideration the amendmeit of Sub-part G of Part 73 of the Commission'srules and regulations governing the op-eration of the Emergency BroadcastSystem (EBS).

2. The National Industry AdvisoryCommittee (NIAC) has forwarded thefirst revision of the Basic EmergencyBroadcast System (EBS) plan to theCommission for approval. The revisionincorporates into the Plan the provisionsof a Presidential Memorandum of Dec-'mber 21, 1966 to his Armed Forces Aidedirecting that in the event an enemyattack has been detected, the WhiteHouse Communications Agency (WHCA)shall be authorized to activate the EBSand the Office of Civil Defense (OCD)shall be authorized to follow with thedissemination of appropriate warningmessages. Since the EBS may possibly beactivated where no enemy attack hasbeen detected, the revision provides forthe broadcast of an Emergency ActionNotification message either with or with-out an OCD attack warning message.

3. The present Basic EBS Plan pro-vides for activation of the EBS duringa "war, threat of war, state of publicperil or disaster, or other nationalemergency." The first revision changesthe above-quoted language to provide foractivation during a "grave national crisisor war."

4. Additionally, the revision providesnational level guidelines for the develop-ment of Detailed State EBS OperationalPlans; incorporates the concept of as-signing operational designations (pri-mary, alternate, primary relay, or alter-

nate relay) to specific National DefenseEmergency Authorization (NDEA) sta-tions; and effects numerous editorialchanges which serve to clarify the mean-ing and objectives of the Basic EBS Plan.The revised EBS Plan has been approvedby the Commission.

5. There is a need to amend SubpartG of Part 73 of the rules and regulationsto reflect those changes in the EmergencyAction Notification System and theEmergency Broadcast System whichhave been effected in the first revisionof the Basic EBS Plan.

6. Since the prompt amendment ofSubpart G of Part 73 of the rules andregulations Is necessary for purposes ofnational defense, compliance with thenotice, public procedure, and effectivedate requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553 wouldbe contrary to the public interest.

7. The authority for the rules adoptedherein is contained in sections 1, 4(i),and 303(r) of the Communications Actof 1934, as amended, and ExecutiveOrder 11092;

It is ordered, That effective August 4,1967, Subpart G of Part 713 of the Com-mission's rules and regulations isamended as set forth in the Appendixbelow.(Sees. 1, 4, 303, 48 Stat., as amended, 1064,1066, 1082; 47 U.S.C. 151, 154, 303, and E.O.11092 of Feb. 26, 1963)

The purpose of amended Part 328 Is toinclude the new official sign and to re-state the mandatory requirements withregard to its display and the use of theofficial advertising statement.

In view of the recent increase in de-posit insurance coverage from $10,000 to$15,000 for each depositor, a new officialsign has been adopted by the Corpora-

"'tion for use by insured banks. As wasformerly the case, the official sign mustbe displayed at each station or windowwhere deposits are received. However,the use of a substitute sign, in lieu of theofficial sign, will not be permitted.

The official advertising statement hasbeen broadened to include the short title"Member FDIC" and reproductions ofthe official sign and to permit their useby insured banks, at their option, asthe official advertising statement. Pro-motional items which are of the typeor character making it impractical toinclude thereon the official advertisingstatement are included in advertisementswhich are exempted from the require-ments as to the official advertisingstatement.

In adopting these amendments to theCorporation's rules and regulations, theBoard of Directors has found that (1) forgood cause shown prior publication ofnotice of proposed rule making In theFEDERAL REMISTER and public participa-tion in the making of rules under theprovisions of the Administrative Proce-dure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) and Part 302 ofthe Corporation's rules and regulations(12 CPR 302.1-302.7) is not required withrespect to the adoption of these amend-ments and such publication is impracti-cable, unnecessary, and contrary to thepublic interest, and (2) that a delay ofnot less than 30 days in the effective dateof said amendments after their publica-tion is not required by the provisions ofthe Administrative Procedure Act (5U.S.C. 553) and Part 302 of the Corpo-ration's rules and regulations (12 CFR302.1-302.7), since the amendments im-pose no substantial additional duties orburdens upon the public and are there-fore excepted from the 30-day prior pub-lication before the effective date require-ment of the Administrative ProcedureAct.

PART 71-DESIGNATION OF FEDERALAIRWAYS, CONTROLLED AIRSPACE,AND REPORTING POINTSAlteration of Control Zone and

Transition AreaThe purpose of this amendment to Part

71 of the Federal Aviation Regulationsis to alter the Albuquerque, N. Mex.,c6ntrol zone and transition area by de-leting the controlled airspace which isbased on the Albuquerque RBN. This ac-tion is necessary since the Albuquerque,

N. Mex., RBN has been decommissioned,the facility converted to an SABH aid,and the instrument approach procedurebased on the Albuquerque R1BN has beencanceled.

Since this amendment is less restric-tive in nature, and lessens the burdenon the public, notice and public proce-dures hereon are unnecessary and theamendment may be made effectiveimmediately.

In consideration of the foregoing. Part71 of the Federal Aviation Regulationsis amended, effective immediately, ashereinafter set forth.

In § 71.171 (32 F.R. 2072) the Albu-querque, N. lex. (Albuquerque SunportAirport/Kirtland AFB) control zone isamended by deleting "* " within 2miles each side of the 1880 bearing fromthe Albuquerque RBN extending fromthe 5-mile radius zone to 7 miles south6f the RBN; * • ."

In § 71.181 (32 P.R. 2149) the Albu-querque, N. Mlex., transition area isamended by deleting "" " within 2miles each side of the 1880 bearing fromthe Albuquerque RBN, extending fromthe 14-mile radius area to 12 miles southof the RBN; * 0 * "

§ 200.100 Statutory functions.(a) The National Bureau of Standards

has been assigned the following func-tions (15 U.S.C. 271-278e):

(1) The custody, maintenance, anddevelopment of the national standardsof measurement, and the provision ofmeans and methods for making meas-urements consistent with those stand-ards, including the comparison of stand-ards used in scientific investigations,engineering, manufacturing, commerce,and educational institutions with thestandards adopted or recognized by theGovernment.

(2) The determination of physicalconstants and properties of materialswhen such data are of great importanceto scientific or manufacturing interestsand are not to be obtained of suffIcientaccuracy elsewhere.

(3) The development of methods fortesting materials, mechanisms, andstructures, and the testing of materials,supplies, and equipment, including items

purchased for use of Government de-partments and independent establish-ments.

(4) Cooperation with other govern-mental agencies and with private orga-nizations in the establishment of stand-ard practices, incorporated in codes andspecifications.

(5) Advisory service to Governmentagencies on scientific and technicalproblems.

(6) Invention and development of de-vices to serve special needs of the Gov-ernment.

(b) The calibration and testing activi-ties of the Bureau stem from the func-tions in paragraph (a) (1) and (3) ofthis section. These activities are assignedprimarily to the NBS Institute for BasicStandards. Its program provides the cen-tral basis within the United States fora complete and consistent system ofphysical measurement; coordinates thatsystem and the measurement system ofother nations; and furnishes essentialservices leading to accurate and uniformphysical measurements throughout theNation's scientific community, industry,and commerce.

(c) The provision of standard refer-ence materials for sale to the public isassigned to the Office of Standard Refer-ence Materials of the NBS Institute forMaterials Research. It evaluates the re-quirements of science and Industry forcarefully characterized reference mate-rials, stimulates the Bureau's efforts todevelop methods for production of neededreference materials and directs theirproduction and distribution. The Itemsavailable under this program are listedin Subchapter B of this chapter.

(d) The provision of technical serv-ices to facilitate technical Innovation andindustrial use of the results of modernscience and technology Is assigned to theNBS Institute for Applied Technology,The principal elements of the Instituteare (1) a Textiles and Apparel Tech-nology Center furnishing specializedtechnical services to that industry; (2)technical divisions which provide serv-ices in technology of more general ap-plicability; (3) the Clearinghouse forFederal Scientific and Technical Infor-mation which promotes widest effectiveuse by the scientific community, indus-try, and commerce of current informa-tion in all fields of industrial technology;and (4) a Center for Computer Sciencesand Technology which conducts researchand provides technical services designedto improve cost effectiveness in the con-duct of agency programs through the usoof computers and related techniques.§ 200.101 Measurement research.

(a) The NBS Institute for BasicStandards carries out the Bureau's func-tion in developing an adequate nationalsystem of physical measurement, andin providing related calibration services.Its staff continually reviews the advancesin science and the trends in technology,examines the measurement potentialitiesof newly discovered physical phenomena,and uses these to devise and improvestandards, measuring devices, and meas-

urement techniques. As new require-ments appear, there are continual shiftsof program emphasis to meet the mosturgent needs for the measurement ofadditional qilantities, extended ranges,or improved accuracies.

(b) The basic research and develop-ment activities of the Bureau are pri-marily funded by direct appropriations,and are aimed at meeting broad generalneeds. When necessary, the Bureau alsoundertakes investigations or develop-ments to meet some specialized physicalmeasurement problem of another gov-ernment agency, industrial group, ormanufacturing firm, using funds suppliedby that organization.§ 200.102 Standards for measurement.

(a) (1) An international treaty, theMetric Convention, was signed by 18countries in 1875. In 1893 the UnitedStates established prototype No. 27 of theinternational meter bar and prototypeNo. 20 of the international kilogram asU.S. Prototype Standards for length andmass. Representatives of many of the 80nations now adhering to this treaty meetperiodically, in the General Conferenceof Weights and Measures, to considerdetailed proposals concerning interna-tional standards for physical measure-ment. The 11th Conference (1960) re-defined the meter in terms of wave-lengths of kiypton 86 light, and agreedto adopt six units to serve as a practicalbase for an International System ofUnits (abbreviated SI from the French,Systime International)-kilogram, me-ter, second, degree Kelvin, ampere, andcandela. These are arbitrarily chosenbut precisely defined magnitudes of sixquantities of the-physical world-mass,length, time, temperature, electric cur-rent, and luminous intensity, respec-tively-which are assigned unitary valuein the International System. The unitsof the English System-pound, inch,second, degree Fahrenheit, etc.-and ofother systems of units are related to theSI units by agreed-upon conversion fac-tors. Consistent units for all other phy-sical quantities needed by science andtechnology can be derived from, andtheir numerical values are fixed by, theseSI units.

(2) The SI units for the six quantitiesare defined as follows:

(i) In terms of a prototype object:(a) Mass. The kilogram is the mass of

a platinum-iridium cylinder preservedat the International Bureau of Weightsand Measures of Sevres, France. Proto-type No. 20 is kept at NBS; equivalentprototypes are kept by other countries.

(ii) In terms of natural phenomena:(a) Length. The meter is the length

of exactly 1,650,763.73 wavelengths ofradiation in vacuum corresponding to theunperturbed transition between the levels2po and 5d of the atom of krypton 86,the orange-red line.

(b) Time interval. The second waslong defined as 1/86400 of the time re-quired for gn average complete rotationof the earth on its axis with respect tothe sun This led to the universal timescale (UT). Because of the slight siow-Ing of the earth's average rotation rate

(from 5 to 6 ms per year, each year), andother larger random fluctuations, theuniversal second thus defined Is not aconstant. The 11th Conference (1960)ratified the following definition: "the-econd is the fraction 1/31,556,925.9747of the tropical year for January 0, 1900at 12 o'clock ephemerls time." The 12thConference (1964) authorized the des-ignation of an atomic standard of fre-quency to be used temporarily for thephysical measurement of time. Thestandard designated is "the transitionbetween the hyperfine levels F=4, 111=0,and F=3, M=0 of the ground state2.m of the cesium 133 atom not perturbedby external fields, and the value 9,192,-631,770 hertz is assigned to the frequencyof this transition" Experimental evi-dence indicates that the two alternativedefinitions of the second are consistentwithin expected uncertainties.

(c) Temperature. The degree Kelvinis 1/273.16 of the thermodynamic tem-perature range between the triple pointof water and absolute zero.

(d) Electric current. The ampere Isthat constant current which If main-tained in two straight parallel conduc-tors of infinite length, of negligible cir-cular sections, and placed I meter apartin a vacuum, would produce betweenthese conductors a force equal to 2 x 10 1newton per meter of length.

(e) Luminous intensity. The candelais the luminous intensity of 1/60 of 1square centimeter of projected area of ablackbody radiator at the temperatureof freezing platinum.

(b) (1) Although the six base units,and others derived from them, are ex-actly defined, their practical use requiresa realization through the developmentof accurate measurement standards.Measurement standards may be based onphysical phenomena, specimen objects,signal sources, or reference instruments.Extensive theoretical studies and labora-tory experiments are involved in theirselection, design, construction, andoperation.

(2) It will be noted that a kilogrammass standard can be calibrated onlythrough a series of comparisons, startingfrom the International Prototype. Theunits for the other five base quantities,and all quantities derived from them,are in principle independently realizablein many laboratories. In practice, how-ever, inevitable minor differences amongInstruments, environments, and opera-tors are bound to introduce small dis-crepancies. Periodic comparison ofstandards and the resolution of thesediscrepancies is required for compatibil-ity among domestic standards labora-tories, as well as internationally.

(3) Within the United States, NBSconsults with the major industrial andgovernmental standards laboratories,and cooperates with the Department ofDefense and the National Conference ofStandards Laboratories in conductingmeasurement agreement comparisons.Periodic - intercomparisons of Bureaustandards with those of other countriesare made through the InternationalBureau of Weights and Measures,through international scientific organi-

sations, or by direct arrangement. Theoperations of the International Bureauare supervised by the General Confer-ence of 'Weights and .$e-asures, to whichUS. delegates are appointed by theDepartment of State.

(4) Frequency and time comparisonswithin the United States are made be-tween the National Bureau of Standards,the U.S. Naval Observatory, and manu-facturers of frequency standards. Thedata from worldwide astronomical ob-servations and from standards labora-tories in many countries are coordinatedby the International Bureau of theHour, which announces recommendedapproxhmations for the rate differencebetween atomic and universal time, aswell as for epoch adjustments.§ 200.103 Types of calibration and test

serivices.(a) The Bureau has developed instru-

mentation and techniques for realizingstandards for the six base units of theInternational System of Units, as agreedupon by the General Conference ofWeights and Measures. Reference stand-ards have been established not only forthese six base units, but also for manyderived quantities and their multiplesand submultiples. Such reference stand-ards, or equivalent working standard,are used to calibrate laboratory andplant standards for other organizations.Accuracy Is maintained by stabilitychecks, by comparison with the stand-ards of other national and internationallaboratories, and by the exploration ofalternative technique as a means ofreducing poz.ble systematic error.

(b) .Calibrations for many types ofInstruments and ranges of physicalquantities are described in the itemizedschedules of this Subchapter. (See also1NBS Miscellaneous Publication 250,2"Calibration and Test Services of theNational Bureau of Standards,)Charges for many services are basedupon established fees, while charges forcome services are billed on the basis ofactual costs Incurred. (See subsequentParts of this Subchapter for descriptionof service items and schedule of fees.)Changes in services and fees are pub-lished in the FmzAr RmisTm Suchchanges are announced also in supple-ments to Miscellaneous Publication 250and in the monthly NBS Technical NewsBulletin1

(c) Conzideration will always be givento requests involving unusual physicalquantities, upper or lower extremes ofrange, higher levels of accuracy, fastresponse speeds, short durations, broaderranges of associated parameters, orspecial environmental conditions. Suchinquiries should describe as clearly aspozsible the measurement desired andthe scientific or economic basis for therequirement to be satisfied.

(d) The BureauWs principal emphasisIs on those calibrations and other testsrequiring such accuracy as can be ob-tained only by direct comparison with its

reference standards. However, in order tomaintain efficient utilization of special-ized equipment and skilled personnel,NBS will at times undertake upon requestto calibrate devices requiring lesser ac-curacy but suitable for working stand-ards in plant or laboratory.

(e) Other services which may be ob-tainable include:

(1) Tests of measuring instrumentsto determine compliance with specifi-cations or claims, when the evaluationis critical in national scientific or tech-nical operations, and when suitablefacilities are not available elsewhere.

(2) Referee tests in important caseswhen clients are unable to agree uponthe method of measurement, the resultsof tests, or the interpretation of theseresults, but have agreed in advance inwriting to accept and abide by the find-ings of the Bureau.

(f) In general, measurement servicesare not provided for organizations orindividuals in foreign countries.

(g) The Bureau reserves the right todecline any request for services if thework would interfere with other activi-ties deemed by the Director to be ofgreater importance.

§ 200.104 Consulting and advisory serv-ices.

(a) In areas of its special competence,the Bureau offers consulting and advis-ory services on physical or mathematicalproblems related to measurement, e.g.,unusual or extreme conditions, methodsof statistical control of the measure-ment process automated acquisition oflaboratory data, and data reduction andanalysis by computer. The Bureau at itsdiscretion may make appropriatecharges for rendering such services; thecharges would be based upon actualcosts.

(b) To enhance the competence ofstandards laboratory personnel, theBureau conducts annually several groupseminars on the precision measurementof specific types of physical quantities,offering the opportunity of laboratoryobservation and informal discussion. A2-week summer course in electromag-netic measurements and standards isconducted biennially by the NBS RadioStandards Laboratory.

(c) Suggestions will be offered onmeasurement techniques and on cthersources of assistance on calibration ormeasurement problems when the Bu-reau's own equipment and personnel areunable to undertake the work. The Na-tional Conference of Standards Labora-tories issues a Directory of StandardsLaboratories in the United States (ob-tainable from NCSL Secretariat, c/o Na-tional Bureau of Standards, Washington,D.C. 20234.) Others are listed in theASTM Directory of Testing Laboratories,Commercial and Institutional. (Direc-tory available from the American Societyfor Testing and Materials, 1916 RaceStreet, Philadelphia, Pa. 19103.) Similarlistings appear in buyer's guides for com-merical products and in technical Jour-nals concerned with physical measure-ment.

§ 200.105 Standard reference materials.Often the performance of a device or

structure can be evaluated at the user'slaboratory by comparing its response tounknown values with its response to astandardized specimen or a material ofcertified composition, properties, or puri-ty. Several types of such specimens arelisted in Part 202 of this Subchapter.(See also NBS Miscellaneous Publication250.1) Carefully characterized materialsare listed in Part 230 of Subchapter B ofChapter Ir, Title 15 of the Code of Fed-eral Regulations. (See also MiscellaneousPublication 260,1 "Standard ReferenceMaterials".) The Office of Standard Ref-erence Materials in the NBS Institutefor Materials Research administers aprogram to provide all types of well-characterized materials that are neededto calibrate a measurement system or toproduce scientific data that can be read-ily referred to a common base.§ 200.106 Critically evaluated data.

Data on the physical properties of thethousands of well-defined substanceswhich are commercially available needto be compiled and evaluated to be use-ful for reference in engineering design.The Office of Standard Reference Datain the NBS Institute for Basic Standardsprovides two-way communication with anumber of governmental and nongovern-mental data centers throughout thecountry. Its compilation and dissemina-tion activities cover seven technicalareas-nuclear data, atomic and molec-ular data, solid state data, thermody-namic and transport data, chemicalkinetics, solloid and surface properties,and mechanical properties. Monthly ac-counts of progress appear in the NationalStandard Reference Data System News(available upon request from the Officeof Standard Reference Data) and in theTechnical News Bulletin.,§ 200.107 Publications.

§ 200.108 Broadcasts.(a) The Radio Standards Laboratory

of NBS broadcasts various types ofstandard frequency and time signalsfrom four radio stations: WWV, WWVH,WWVL, and WWVB. (NBS Miscellane-ous Publication 236,* "NBS StandardFrequency and Time Services", containsinformation concerning the broadcastsof various types of such signals fromthese four stations.) WWVH is locatedat Maul, Hawaii. WWV, WWVL, andWWVB are located at Fort Collins, Colo.(WWV was relocated In December 1906,from Greenbelt, Md.) Notices of preci-sions, accuracies, and adjustments inNBS clocks and radio emissions are pub-lished regularly in the FEDXRAL RcGISTIR.(Such notices are published also In theTime and Frequency Service Bulletinwhich is available from the RadioStandards Laboratory on request,)

(b) Broadcasts from WWV are atnominal frequencies of 2.5, 5, 10, 15, 20,and 25 MHz, and from WWVH at 2.5,5, 10, 15'MHz; the carrier frequenciesand time pulse rates emitted by both areoffset from nominal values in accordancewith the Universal Time Coordinated(UTC) system. The frequency is offset by-300 parts in 100, and the time pulsesoccur at intervals slightly longer than 1second. As recommended by the Inter-national Bureau of the Hour, the phaseof the time pulses is occasionally ad-justed to approximate UT2 within about100 ms. The UT2 scale Is a partlysmoothed version of Universal Time(UT), as determined by astronomicalobservations and with annual and semi-annual fluctuations removed. WWV andWWVH also provide standard musicalpitch at 440 hertz, weather forecasts, andgeophysical alerts. WWV broadcasts Uni-versal Time--seconds, minutes, hours,and days of the year-in the code formatof the National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration. For more precise de-termination of UT2, both WWV andWWVH broadcast in International MorseCode appropriate corrections based onastronomical data from the U.S. NavalObservatory, Washington, D.C.

(c) At WWVL, the modes of broadcastof the carrier and the timing signals arealso in conformity with the UTC system

(d) Station WWVB broadcasts on thestandard radio frequency of 60 Kfil.without offset, emitting time markerpulses exactly 1 second apart, as deter-mined by the NBS cesium clock. Thephase of these pulses Is reset every fewmonths by 0.2-s adjustments, as recom-mended by the International Bureau ofthe Hour, in order to approximate UT2within about 0.1 s. This is a coordinatedsystem known as Stepped Atomic Time(SAT).

(e) The U.S. Naval Observatory alsobroadcasts standard UTC time and timeinterval (frequency), using both astro-nomical and atomic data. It coordinatesa number of Navy and Coast Guard sta-tions around the globe, and also monitorsthe NBS broadcasts.

§ 200.109 Request procedure.(a) A formal purchase order for the

calibration or test should be sent priorto or at the time of shipment. This shouldprovide clear fdentification of the instru-ment or standard being submitted, andgive instructions for'billing. If a clientwishes to minimize the time duringwhich his equipment is out of service, hecan usually arrange to delay shipmentuntil the test is scheduled to star.Requests from Federal agencies, or fromState agencies, for calibrations or testson material to be used on private orFederal contract work, should be ac-companied either by purchase order or byletter or document authorizing the costof the test to be billed to the agency.

(b) Acceptance of purchase ordersdoes not imply acceptance of any pro-visions set forth in the order contrary tothe policy, practice, or regulations of theNational Bureau of Standards or theU.S. Government. (A statement to theeffect that the National Bureau of Stand-ards is an agency of the U.S. Governmentshould satisfy other Government agen-cies with regard to compliance withGovernment regulations and Executiveorders.)

(c) A test number will be assignedby the Bureau to each item (instrumentor group of similar instruments or stand-ards) when accepted for test. This testnumber should be referred to in all sub-sequent communications. If the appara-tus submitted has been previously cali-brated by the Bureau, reference shouldbe made to the test number previouslyassigned, so that a continuing record ofstability history can be established.

(d) Inquiries related to electricalstanlards in the radio frequency region(above 30 kHz, Part 201, §§201.701through 201.950 of this subchapter), andon all frequency and time standardsshould be directed to:Coordinator, Calibration Services, Radio

ices listed in this subchapter, other thanthose noted in paragraph (d) of thissection, should be directed to:Test Administration Unit, National Bureau

of Standards, Washington, D.C. 20234.§ 200.110 Shipping, insurance and risk

of loss.(a) Shipment of material to the"u-

reau for calibration or other test shouldbe made only after the client has ac-cepted the estimate of cost and thetentative scheduling.

(b) Calibrations of electrical stand-ards in the radiofrequency region (above30 kHz, Part 201, §§ 201.701 through201.950 of this subchapter) are per-formed at Boulder, Colo. Shipmentsshould be addressed to:Coordinator, Calibration Services, Radio

If apparatus for high frequency is alsoto be given incidental low-frequency

calibration, this may be done at Boulder,Colo. but If a complete range of low-frequency tests are needed, the Instru-ment should be sent to:National Bureau of Standards, Routo 703

and Quince Orchard Road. Galthercburg,Id.

(c) The calibrations listed in this sub-chapter, other than those noted In para-graph (b) of this section, are performedin the Bureau's laboratories at eitherGaithersburg, Ald., or Washington, D.C.For'shipments which are heavy (in ex-cess of 100 lbs.) or bulky (a combinedgirth In excess of 27 cu. ft.), request ashipping address from:Test Administration Unit, National Bureau

of Standards, Washington, D.C. 23.Items other than heavy or bulky chip-ments that are sent by common carricr,should be addressed to:National Bureau of Standardrs, Route 70S

and Quince Orchard Road, Galthcrzburg,Ld.

(d) Equipment sent to the Bureaumust be properly packed to minimizelikelihood of damage In shipment andhandling. Suggestions on packing andshipping are made in some sections ofthe fee schedule. In every case, the clientshould consider the nature of the equip-ment, pack It accordingly, and clearlylabel shipments containing fragile In-struments or materials, such as glass andthe like. The use of "cecurity exprezs"should be considered in shipping delicateinstruments.

(e) To minimize damage during chip-ment resulting from Inadequate packing,the use of strong reusable containers isrecommended. As an aid in preventingloss of such containers, the client's nameshould be legibly and permanentlymarked on the outside. In order to pro-long the container's use, the notationReusable Container, Do Not Destroyshould be marked on the outside.

(f) Shipping and insurance coverageinstructions, In order to be followed,must be clearly and legibly shown on thepurchase order for the calibration ortest. As the Bureau will not pay shippingor insurance charges and add this costto the billing invoice, return shipment,when no shipping or insurance instruc-tions are furnished, will be made bycommon carrier collect, but uninsured.

(g) When a test number has been as-signed prior to shipment to the Bureau,this number should be clearly marked onthe shipping container. When a testnumber has not been assigned, an in-voice, copy of the purchase order, orletter should be enclozed in the shipmentto insure proper Identification. The orig-inal purchase order should be forwardedas appropriate to:Test Administration Unit National Bureau

of Standards. Washington. D.C. 20234Coordinator, Calibration Srvice, Radio

Standards Laboratory, National Bureau ofStandards, Boulder. Colo. 80302.(h) NES will not be responsible for

the risk of loss or damage to any Itemin shipping to or from the Bureau. Anyarrangements for insurance coveringthis risk must be made by the client.Return shipment will be made by the

Bureau as Indicated In paragraph (f)of this section. The purchase ordershould always show the value of theequipment, and If transit Insurance iscarricd by the client, this fact shsuld bestated.

(1) The risk of Ioss or damage in han-dling or testing of any Item by NIBS mustbe assumed by the client, except whenit Is determined by the Bureau that suchIo= or damage was occasioned solely bythe negligence of Burtau personne:.§ 200.111 Identification and operability

of devices ublnitted.

(a) Since the data provided by theBureau's report is specific to the indi-vidual Item or piece of apparatus tested,It i- essential that this piece be identifieduniquely by an appropriate number orsymbol. In most cases, the manufac-turer's name and serial numbers areused. When such a number is lacking,an alternative Identifying mark shouldbe provided. If none is found, the Bureaumay apply an appropriate one, usuallythe Bureau's Test Number, for which anadditiona) charge may be made.

(b) All apparatus submitted for cali-bration and test must be in good operat-ing condition. Repairs and adjustmentsshould be attended to by the client priorto shipment. Apparatus not in good con-dilton cannot be tested, nor can the Bu-reau undertake the repair or adjustmentof any equipment, except by special ar-rangement. If It is evident that equip-ment has been abused or has not reca-vedproper care, a tf-st ordinarily will not beconducted. If defects are found at theBureau after a test has begun, this factwill be reported, the test may be termi-nated, and a report issu.ed summariziarsuch information as has been found, anda fee charged in accordance ith theamount of worL done.§ 200.112 Priority and tlime of comple-

tion.(a) Except for emergency Govern-

ment work, calibrations mid other testsare in general undertaken in the orderin which requests are received.

(b) The date at which a test will becompleted depends on a number of fac-tors, such as the condition of submittedequipment, setup time, duration of testrun, limitations on available personnel,occasional large backllogs of work, andgrouping of tests of similar devices tolessen costz. Sometimes repetitive runsare needed to determine reliability ofresults, or peculiar behavior i. noted, re-quring unusually careful invetation.The Bureau will cooperate with a clientto minimize the out-of-use time for hisequipment, and will upon request informhim of a probable starting date and givenotice of unexpected delays in compie-tion of the work. Estimates of completiondates are therefore provisional.§ 200.113 Witnessingof operatiom.

The Bureau welcomes scientists andengineers who may rish to visit its Iab-oratories and discuss its methods. How-ever, visitors ordinarily will not be per-mitted to witness- the actual carryin- outof highly precise measurements becausetheir presence introduces distraction

that may lead to errors or delays. Thispolicy may be waived in those cases wherethe visitor can be of service in settingup apparatus of a new or unusual nature,in the case of referee tests, or in othercases in which the legal validity of theresult may require the presence of dulyauthorized witnesses.

§ 200.114 Reports.

Results of calibrations and other testsare issued as reports entitled, "NationalBureau of Standards Report of Calibra-tion," "National Bureau of StandardsReport of Test," or "National Bureau ofStandards Report of Analysis," as ap-propriate. The report form used carriesno special significance. Whenever formalcertification is required by law, or to meetspecial conditions adjudged by the Na-tional Bureau of Standards to warrantIt, a letter will be provided certifying thatthe particular item was received andcalibrated or tested, and identifying thereport containing the results.

§ 200.115 Use of results.

(a) The NBS report of calibration ortest contains data which pertain onlyto the particular device or specimen cal-ibrated or tested. There is no implicationthat other items of the same lot or typewill show comparable results. However,on the basis of tests on a sample ofInstruments or objects drawn from a lotof nominally identical items, in accord-ance with an approved sampling pro-cedure, the Bureau may declare that theentire lot does or does not meet statedrequirements for acceptance.

(b) The results given in the NBS re-port are limited to the condition of theequipment at the time of calibration ortest. Clients should not assume thatcomparable performance will be sus-tained unless suitable precautions aretaken in handling and use.

(c) The National Bureau of Standardsdoes not "approve," "recommend," or"endorse" any proprietary product ormaterial, either as a single Item or as aclass or group. Results reported by theBureau shall not be used in advertisingor sales promotion, or to indicate explicitor implicit endorsement of the productor material by the Bureau.

§ 200.116 Fees.(a) In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 271-

278e, fees are charged for all calibra-tions and tests made by the NationalBureau of Standards.

(b) This fee schedule is published sub-ject to the above-mentioned basic actwhich authorizes the Secretary of Com-merce, from time to time, to make reg-ulations regarding the payment of fees,the limits of tolerance on standards sub-mitted for verification, and related mat-ters.

§ 200.117 Billing charges.

The minimum billing charge for anytest request accepted by the Bureau is$10, unless otherwise indicated in a par-ticular fee schedule. If apparatus is re-turned without testing, a minimumcharge of $10 may be made to cover

handling. Fees for tests include the costof preparation of an original report.Additional copies ordinarily are not Is-sued to other than the recipient of theoriginal, and are not issued unless theclient has shown a technical need forthem. Copies of reports requested subse-quent to the date of tests will be sup-plied at cost, with a minimum chargeof $5. All checks should be made pay-able to NBS, Department of Commerce.

lation listing and exempting from cer-tification the color additive corn endo-sperm oil for use in chicken feed:

An order in the above-identified mat-ter was published in the FEaaaAT Rx0Lo-TER of March 30, 1967 (32 P.R. 5324).The original petitioner, Corn ProductsCo., 717 Fifth Avenue, New York, N.Y.10022, subsequently submitted datashowing that the color additive producedby good manufacturing practice cannotreasonably meet the 50 parts per millionspecification for isopropyl 61cohol andhas requested that the specification bechanged to 100 parts per millon. TheCommissioner of Food and Drugs findsthat such a change is necessary and wilnot adversely affect the public health.

Therefore, pursuant to the provis, onsof the Federal Food, Drug, and Cos-metic Act (se. 706(b), (c)(2), (d). 74Stat. 399-403: 21 U.S.C. 376(b), (c) (2),(d)) and under the authority delegatedto the Commissioner by the Secretary ofHealth, Education, and Welfare (21OFF 2.120): It is ordered, That § 8.322(b) (32 FR. 5324) be amended by chang-ing the item reading "1sopropyl alcohol,not more than 50 parts per million" toread 'Isopropyl alcohol, not more than100 parts per million."

No other response was received to theorder of March 30, 1907; therefore, asidefrom the amendment herein ordered,§ 8.322 became effective May 29, 1967.

PART 205-WITHDRAWAL OF CASHFROM THE TREASURY FOR AD-VANCES UNDER FEDERAL PRO-GRAMS

Subehapter A, Chapter II of Title 31of the Code of Federal Regulations Isamended by a new part, designatedPart 205 (also appearing as Treasury De-partment Circular 1075 (Revised), datedFeb. 13, 1967) reading as follows:Sec.205.1 Purpose.205.2 Scope of regulations.305.3 General policy.205.4 Letter-of-credit method of financing

advances.205.5 Implementing Instructions.

AuTnoarr: The provisions of this Part205 are issued under R.S. 161, as amended;5 U.S.C. 301.

§ 205.1 Purpose.This part is issued in recognition of the

facts that Federal programs which in-volve cash advances to organizations out-side the Federal Government constitutea significant portion of the FederalBudget and that timing of advance pay-ments has a substantial impact on theTreasury, including the level of the pub-lie debt and financing costs. The pur-pose of this part is to preclude with-drawals from the Treasury any soonerthan necessary to finance the operationsof recipients of advances.§ 205.;2 Scope of regulations.

The regulations in this part cover dis-bursement practices for all advances un-der Federal grant or other programs, in-cluding advances to a State and localgovernment, educational institution, in-ternational organization, and any otherpublic and private organization, herein-after referred to as "recipient organiza-tion". Coverage is intended to be so broadas to apply to any program requiring ad-vance Federal payments to finance therecipient organization's activities incarrying out that program, whether bycontract, grant, contribution, or otherform of agreement. Programs involvingeither administrative budget or trustfunds are covered. Programs for whichdisbursements are made, or will be made,as reimbursements for work performed

FEDERAL

or which require delivery or performancebefore payment are not covered by thispart.§ 205.3 General policy.

Advances shall be limited to the mini-mum amounts possible. Advances shallbe timed to be in accord with the actualcash requirements of the recipient or-ganization in carrying out the purpose ofthe approved program or project. Forrelatively small operations (where theaggregate annual amount of advances isunder $250,000) the amount of cash ad-vances in the hands of the recipient or-ganization shall not at any time exceed1 month's needs and the agency authoriz-ing the advance shall be guided accord-ingy. For larger operations the amountof cash advances in the hands of therecipient organization shall be as closeto daily needs as administratively fea-sible. In general, the larger the annualamount of advances to any recipient or-ganization, the more frequent specificcash advances shall be.§ 205.4 Letter-of-credit mclod of

financing advances.(a) Applicability. Whenever the pur-

pose of this part cannot be fully accom-plished by making advances by checkunder regular disbursement procedure,the letter-of-credit method shall be con-sidered. Letters of credit provide recip-ient organizations with the means ofobtaining funds promptly from theTreasury, from time to time, as close toactual daily needs as administrativelyfeasible, under approved Federal pro-grams. Alternative methods of malingadvances may be approved by the Treas-ury if equally advantageous in meetingthe purpose of this part.

(b) Limitations. The letter-of-creditmethod shall not apply unless (1) theFederal department or agency has, orexpects to have, a continuing relation-ship of at least 1 year with a recipientorganization, and (2) the annual amountof advances will be at least $250,000.Documents drawing on letters of creditordinarily will not be in amounts le sthan $10,000 or more than $1 million,but in no case more than $5 million un-less so stated on the letter of credit.

(c) Execution. Each letter of credit(Standard Form 1193) shall be executedby an authorized certifying officer of thedepartment or agency concerned and theprovisions of this part shall be consid-ered as part of the conditions therein.

(d) Drawdowns. Recipient organiza-tions shall draw on letters of credit byIssuing a payment voucher, StandardForm 218. Each payment voucher, bear-ing the signature and, if required, thecountersignature of the individuals soauthorized by the recipient organiza-tion, shall be forwarded through thecommercial bank In which the recipientorganization has its account to the ap-propriate Federal Reserve Bank orbranch, where the payment voucher willbe reviewed for compliance herewith andthe payment charged to the general ac-count of the Treasurer of the UnitedStates. The amount of each paymentvoucher paid by a Federal Reserve Bankor branch to a designated commercial

bank for credit to the account of the re-ciplent organization shall constitute pay-ment to the recipient organization by theUnited States.

(e) Signature cards. The Federal de-partment or agency, before Issuing a let-ter of credit, shall secure from the re-cipient organization a signature card,Standard Form 1194, bearing (1) thenames and signatures of the individualsauthorized to sign and, if required,.counterslgn payment vouchers, and (2)the signature of an official of the re-cipient organization who has authorityto decignate the individuals so author-ized. The signature card shall be signedby an authorized certifying officer of theFederal department or agency evidenc-ing that agency's approval of the signa-tures. The Federal department or agencyconcerned Is responsible for determiningthat the officlal of the recipient orga-nization whose signature appears in ac-cord with subparagraph (2) of this para-graph Is duly authorized to designatethe individuals indicated in subpara-graph (1) of this paragraph. If deemednece sary in fulfilling such responsibility,the Federal department or agency mayalso secure from the recipient organiza-tion a dedignation, authenticated by itsgoverning body (or by the officer dulyauthorized In the case of a publicagency) of the official or officials of therecipient organization, together withspecimens of their signatures, who areauthorized to designate the individualsto sign payment vouchers.

W(f) Disoition. Letters of credit, to-gether with related signature cards,shall be transmitted to the Bureau of Ac-counts, Department of the Treasury,Washington, D.C. 20226, for transmittalto the appropriate Federal Reserve Bankor branch and a copy of the letter ofcredit sall be furnished to the recipientorganization. A recipient organizationshall not submit, and a Federal ReserveBank or branch shall not charge the ac-count of the Treasurer of the UnitedStates for, any payment voucher whichexceeds the balance of the letter or creditremaining available, or which does notcontain the signature and, if required,countersignature of the individuals au-thorized to sign the payment voucher.§ 205.5 Implementing instructions and

forms.(a) Procedural requirements under

this part will be promulgated by theCommissioner of Accounts in the "Treas-ury Fiscal Requirements Manual forGuidance of Departments and Agencies."

(b) Agency procedures to accomplishthe objective of this part will be sub-mitted to the Commissioner of Accounts,Bureau of Accounts, for approval inbehalf of the Fiscal Assistant Secretary.

MILK IN THE SOUTHERN ILLINOIS,CENTRAL ILLINOIS, ST. LOUIS, MO.,AND OZARKS MARKETING AREAS

Decision on Proposed Amendmentsto Tentative Marketing Agree-ments and to Orders

Pursuant to the provisions of the Agri-cultural Marketing Agreement Act of1937, as amended (7 U.S.C. 601 et seq.),and the applicable rules of practice andprocedure governing the formulation ofmarketing agreements and marketingorders (7 CFR Part 900), a public hearingwas held at St. Louis, Mo., on March 2,1967, pursuant to notice thereof issuedon February 23, 1967 (32 PR. 3298).

Upon thq basis of the evidence intro-duced at the hearing and the recordthereof, the Deputy Administrator, Regu-latory Programs, on June 2, 1967 (32 F.R.8176; F.R. Doe. 67-6357) filed with theHearing Clerk, U.S. Department of Agri-culture, his recommended decision con-taining notice of the opportunity to filewritten exceptions thereto.

The material issues, findings and con-clusions, rulings, and general findings ofthe recommended decision (32 F.R. 8176;F.R. Doe. 67-6357) are hereby approvedand adopted and are set forth in fullherein subject to the following modifi-cations:

Under Findings and Conclusions twosentences are added at the end of thesecond paragraph and a sentence isadded at the end of the 14th paragraph.

The material issue on the record ofthe hearing relates to the seasonal pro-duction incentive plan in each of thefour markets.

Findings and conclusions. The follow-ing findings and conclusions on thematerial issue are based on evidencepresented at the hearing and the recordthereof.

Seasonal production incentive plan.The "Louisville" plan for seasonal pay-ments to milk producers in these fourmarkets should be modified to set aside15 cents per hundredweight of producermilk during each of the months ofMarch and July and 25 cents per hun-dredweight during each of the monthsof April, May, and June. The payment ofthis money to producers during the fallmonths should be modified also by add-ing the month of September to themonths of October, November, and De-cember as the period in which the pay-

ments are made. The rate of payment ofthis money in the September-Decemberperiod should be 20 percent in each ofthe months of September and Decemberand 30 percent In each of the months ofOctober and November. These changesshould be made effective beginning withMarch 1968. In addition, the period forset aside this year should be continuedthrough August at the existing rate of10 cents per hundredweight. The monthof September 1967 should be added as a"pay-back" month. The payments backto producers in 1967 should be made atthe rate of one-fourth of the total with-held for each of the months of Septem-ber through December.

A Louisville plan for seasonal adjust-ment of payments to producers has beeneffective in the St. Louis, Mo., Ozarks,and Suburban St. Louis (now SouthernIllinois) orders for several years. A simi-lar Louisville plan was made A part ofthe Central Illinois order Issued to be ef-fective January 1, 1967. The purpose ofthese plans is to provide incentive forproducers in each of these markets toachieve a more even production of millthroughout the year.

The present orders provide for retain-Ing In the producer-settlement fund 10cents per hundredweight of producermilk delivered during the months of Aprilthrough July. This money is distributedto producers during the following monthsof October through December, one-thirdof the total in each month, During eachof the months of October, November, andDecember in each of the three orderswhere the plan has been operative, theinclusion of this money in the uniformprices to producers during the fallmonths has contributed approximately14 cents per hundredweight to the levelof price.

This seasonal variation in returns toproducers has been in addition to that re-sulting from seasonal changes in ClassI price differentials. Prior to amendmentof the orders May 1, 1967, seasonal Cla!sI differentials were provided as follows:At the annual average for each respec-tive order in the months of December,January, February, and July; 20 centsper hundredweight higher in the monthsof August through November; and 20cents lower than the annual average inother months.1

The seven cooperative associations,which represent a majority of the pro-ducers n each of the four markets hereconsidered, asked that the Louisvilleplans of the respective orders be modifiedas described above if the seasonal ClassI differentials were changed to A singleannual differential. The proponent co-

Officlal notice Is tahen of amendments tothese orders effective My 1, 1967 (32 Pn.6606), providing for a snslo CIaa I differ-ential in each order equal to the annual aver-age of the prior sceaonal dilerentials.

operative aszocations were of the opinionthat with the seasonal changes in ClassI price differentials eliminated it wouldbe necessary to provide other means toencourage producers to avoid undue sea-sonal changes In production.

For the afrch-July period, under theproposal, the average of the monthlyrates of deduction would be 21 cents perhundredweight. Money set aside at thisrate during these 5 months, and subse-quent payment in the 4-month fallperiod, would produce a seasonal varia-tion in the St. Louis market blend priceestimated at close to 50 cents perhundredweight. Additional seasonalchanges in per hundredweight returnswould result from normal changes inclass utilization.

The proposed plan, would produce sim-ilar seasonal changes in returns to pro-ducers in each of the four markets. Thetotal effect would be not greatly dif-ferent from the changes previously re-sulting from the combination of theexisting Louisville plans at a lesser rateof deduction and the additional effect ofthe seasonal changes in Class I differen-

The problem that the seasonal pro-duction incentive plan is intended tocorrect Is the tendency towards largeseasonal changes in production whichaggravate the problems of handling re-serve milk in some months and the con-verse problem of providing an adequatesupply during other times of the year.Production per farm tends to be higherin spring months than in the fall.

In the St. Louis market during 1966,production per farm during the proposedset-aside months (March through July)was 109 percent of the production perfarm during the subsequent fall monthsof September through December. In theOzarks market the corresponding per-centage was approximately i1 percent.

The problem of seasonal changes inproduction, however, is greater thanwould be represented by these averageproduction per farm data for thesegroups of months. This is because theaverage obscures the extremes of varia-tion from spring to fall seasons. In theSt. Louis market, for instance, the pro-duction per farm at the highest levelwas in May, which was 122 percent ofthe production per farm in October.Similarly, in the Ozarks market, produc-tion per farm in May was 129 percent ofproduction per farm in October.

In the Southern Illinois market, basedon data prior to expansion of the mar-keting area January 1, 1967, productionper farm in June 1966 was 117 percent ofthe production per farm in September:While similar data are not available forthe Central Illinois market, inasmuch as

OlclU notice Is taken of data publihedby the market admlnLtrator for Order No. 32.

FEDERAL REGISTER, VOL 32, NO. 132-TUESDAY, JULY 11, 1967

PROPOSED RULE MAKING

It became effective January 1, 1967, itwould be expected because of the sim-ilarity of production conditions that theproblem of seasonal variation in produc-tion per farm would be about the sameas in the other three markets.

The position of the proponent co-operative associations was that seasonalchanges in production would continueto be a problem which could become moresevere unless the orders were amendedto provide seasonal changes in producerreturns comparable to those under priorpricing plans. With the removal of sea-sonal changes in Class I differentials, thecooperatives felt that a larger seasonalchange in producer returns should beprovided under the Louisville plan.

The proposed modification would beginLouisville plan deductions in March,which was the month of the hearing. Theproposed higher rates of deduction werecontingent, however, on adoption of pro-posed amendments to eliminate seasonalClass I price differentials, which wereeffectuated May 1, 1967. The proponentwitness indicated that under this condi-tion the higher rates of set aside shouldbe made effective beginning in March1968, and that the present deduction of10 cents per hundredweight should becontinued through August this year. Intheir exceptions proponents stated thattheir proposal would include Septemberin the fall payment months beginning in1967 rather than in 1968 as provided inthe recommended decision.

The rates of deduction and payfnentproposed by the cooperative associationsfor these four markets will result in aneffective and proper method of encourag-Ing a more even seasonal rate of produc-tion. The varying rates of deductionduring the March-July period are de-signed to apply the highest rates in themonths of greatest seasonal surplus,namely April through June. The lesserrates of deduction would apply in Marchand July when production is normallyhigher than the annual average, althoughnot as high as in April, May, and June.

Similarly, the fall payments would behighest in October and November whenproduction normally is seasonally lowest.The lesser rate of payment would applyIn September and December when pro-duction normally s higher than in Octo-ber and November but less than the an-nual average. It Is appropriate that thepayment months of 1967 include Septem-ber as requested by the association.Proponents' exceptions pointed out thatthis month represents the beginning ofseasonal decrease in production andseasonal increase in Class I sales. Suchconditions would be as applicable thisyear as in subsequent years. However,the 1967 fall payments should be dividedpro rata among the four months (Sep-tember through December) in view ofthe lesser amount of funds involved thanprovided for subsequent years.

The purpose of discouraging extremeseasonal changes in production is in theinterest of orderly marketing of milk inthese markets. The proposed modifica-tions of the seasonal production incentiveplans in these four orders are adopted.

Three handlers who operate plants Inone or the other of the Southern Illinoisor Central Illinos order areas stated thatthey approved the principle of the Louis-ville plan as a method of encouraging amore level production throughout theyear. The same handlers objected, how-ever, to the proposed increase in the rateof set aside at this time under the Cen-tral Illinois and Southern Illinois orders.They feared that the increased rates ofset aside during the spring and summermonths and payment during fall monthswould result in seasonal misalignmentof prices to producers compared withmarkets to the north in Illinois, Wiscon-sin, and Iowa. It was also argued thathandlers would need to pay premiums inwhichever market the uniform priceswere lower due to the proposed seasonalchanges. Otherwise, it was argued, dairyfarmers would tend to shift betweenmarkets to get a higher price.

If the arguments of these handlershave validity, the same arguments wouldapply to the producer price relationshipsbetween St. Louis and Southern Illinois,and between Southern Illinois and Cen-tral Illinois if the proposed higher rateswere made effective only in Southern Illi-nois. In effect, therefore, the argumentsseem to preclude modification of theLouisville plans of these orders unlesssimilar seasonal pricing to dairy farmerswere simultaneously made effective in allmarkets which are in close geographicrelationship.

It is concluded that the reasons givenby the handlers in objection to the pro-posed changes should not prevent theadoption of changes to be effective begin-ning March 1968. During the interveningperiod there will be opportunity for par-ties in adjoining markets to propose ap-propriate changes in seasonal variationof returns to their producers. The issu-ance of a recommended decision at thistime on this record will serve to informinterested parties in other markets as tothe changes to be made in the four mar-kets considered here. Furthermore,whether or not comparable changes aremade in adjoining markets, it would notbe expected that the difference in pay-ment plans would result in serious dis-ruption of milk supplies. Some seasonalvariation In returns to producers nor-mally occurs in any market due tochanges in class utilization. Thus allmarkets in the area will to a degree havesimilar periods of seasonally higher andseasonally lower prices.

The Louisville plan of distributing re-turns to producers does not affect han-dlers' costs under the order or changethe total amount of money received by allproducers for a year's milk production.For the individual producer, however,the plan may change the amount ofmoney he receives for his year's pro-duction of milk. The plan would tend toincrease, or on the other hand, decrease,the returns to an individual dairy farmerdepending on whether the seasonal vari-ation in his production was less or more,respectively, than the market average.It is only by providing that the individualdairy farmer's returns will be so affectedthat the plan can achieve its purpose of

rectifying extreme seasonal changes inmilk production. In these markets pro-ducers as represented by their coopera-tive associations desire that their moneybe paid to them in the manner proposed,

A cooperative association whose men-bers supply certain Ozarks order han-dlers requested that If such handlers areexempted from the Ozarks order regula-tion due to a change in the marketin),area between the periods of set aside antpayment under the Louisville plan, thenthe proportionate amount of money de-ducted for member milk should be Insome manner returned to such members.

The question of marketing area changeIs a consideration in records of otherhearings on the Ozarks and St. Louis or-ders pursuant to notice Issued Januaiy24, 1967 (32 F.R. 1042) and the Ozarksand Fort Smith orders pursuant to noticeissued October 11, 1966 (31 F.R. 13395,.Decisions on those records are pending.It would not be possible to anticipate onthis record what modifications of themarketing area might be made or whatimportance these or other changes basedon the other records would have in rela-tion to the Louisville plan. The problemraised by the cooperative therefore can-not be resolved on this record.

MILK IN CENTRAL WEST TEXAS Dublin.MARKETING AREA IThe cooperative association represent-Ing all but one of the Central West Texas

cision an Proposed Amendments producers and a handler operating poolo Tentative Marketing Agreement distributing plants at Midland and Abi-and to Order lene proposed elimination of the 15-cent

increase in the Class I price at MidlandPursuant to the provisions of the Ag- over the price effective at Abilene. Altural Marketing Agreement Act of handler operating a pool distributing7, as amended (7 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), plant at Abilene proposed a general re-

duction of 15 cents per hundredweight inthe Class I price at all plant locations.

The handler who operates two pool'plants, one at Midland and the other atAbilene, also operates a plant at Lubbockthat Is a pool plant under the Lubbock-Plainview order. This handler con-tended that the Midland area Class Iprice is excessive in relation to prices tocompeting distributors regulated by thisorder at certain locations and in relationto prices under nearby Federal orders.He testified that a shift in the area ofsupply of producer milk for the Midlandplant from the eastern portion of themarketing area to west Texas and NewMexico has removed justification for a15-cent higher level in the Class I pricesat that location. The cooperative Joinedin the proposal, primarily because itfeared that the Midland plant would beclosed and the distribution area nowserved by the plant would be servedeither by other order plants or from theAbilene plant of this handler. In eithercase the cooperative association felt itcould not provide producers supplyingthe Midland plant a market with returnsequal to those they now have.

The handler proposing a general 15-cent reduction in the Class I price levelopposed elimination of the 15-cent dif-ferential at Midland. He distributesmilk in the Midland section of the mar-keting area from his Abilene plant. Hecontends that a Midland price at theAbilene level would give his Midlandcompetitor a competitive advantage equalto the transportation cost on the milkhe moves the 143 miles between thetwo cities. He contended that at pres-ent price levels distribution in other partsof the marketing area by plants regulatedby the Red River Valley, Lubbock-Plainview, North Texas, and OklahomaMetropolitan orders could displace pro-ducer milk from Class I uses.

A handler operating plants regulatedunder the Red River Valley and NorthTexas orders that distribute milk In theCentral West Texas area offered at thehearing a modified proposal to set theAbilene Class I price at 17 cents overthat of North Texas and the price atMidland 13 cents higher than ths Abileneprice. In his brief, however, heabandoned this proposal In favor of nochange in present order provisions.

Producer receipts and Class I use atCentral West Texas regulated plantshave been maintained at a relativelysteady level for the past 2 years. Thismarket is one of relatively high Class Iutilization of producer receipts, For thepast 4 years Class I use of producer milkhas ranged from 85 to 90 percent. In1965, 85 percent of producer milk wasused In Class I, down from the 90 percentutilization in 1963 and 1964, but such useincreased to 86 percent of producerreceipts in 1966.

Generally the local supply of producermilk has been sufficient at present ClassI prices to supply the fluid milk needs ofhandlers regulated by the Central WestTexas order. There has been no occasionIn the recent past to procure bulk milkfrom alternative sources for the needs

PROPOSED RULE MAKING

of these plants. However, regular dis-tribution in this marketing area is madeby plants regulated under nearby orders.Such other order plant distribution ofmilk has not increased in the past 2 yearsbut has been maintained relativelysteady. Regular route distribution Ismade by handlers in this area from theNorth Texas, San Antonio, Red RiverValley, Oklahoma -Metropolitan, RioGrande Valley, and Lubbock-Plalnviewmarkets.

The principal source of milk supplyfor local plants is from approximately300 producers with farms located incounties containing parts of the market-ing area or counties adjacent thereto.Some of these producers delivering milkdirectly to Central West Texas plants arelocated in New Mexico and in Texascounties located in the marketing areaof the Red River Valley or North Texasorderm

There are regular and continuing ClassI sales of fluid milk to consumers in themarketing area from plants regulatedunder nearby orders and by producer-handlers. Such sales by these otherplants have ranged from 28 percentof the total marketing area Class Idistribution to 32 percent in the last 7years. In 1966, distribution from plantsother than regulated plants amounted to45 million pounds or 29 percent of total-Class I distribution in the marketingarea. This is a decline from 32 percentin 1964 and 31 percent in 1965.

The Lubbock-Plainview and Red RiverValley orders are the principal ordersunder which it claimed that milk may bedistributed in the Central West Texas

_area at a competitive advantage overmilk priced by the Central West Texasorder. To a lesser extent it is claimedthat North Texas handlers have com-

.petitive advantage, particularly in theeastern portion of the area to whichCentral West Texas handlers move milkeastward.

The Lubbock-Plainview price is 30cents less than the Central West Texasprice at Midland and 15 cents less thanthat at Abilene. Lubbock is 117 milesfrom Midland. At a rate of 1.5 cents perhundredweight per 10 miles, Lubbock-Plainview milk could be delivered to Mid-land at 12 cents less than the CentralWest Texas price at Midland. Lubbock-Plainview milk is distributed in theMidland-Odessa section of the CentralWest Texas area. More important, it isat Lubbock that the Midland handlerhas a plant from which he could servethe sales now served by the Midlandplant.

Red River Valley milk is distributedin the Midland-Odessa area from a plantin Wichita Falls. In 1966, the Midlandprice exceeded the Wichita Falls priceby 16 cents per hundredweight in addi-tion to the transportation cost. WhileRed River Valley milk has in the pastalso been distributed in the Abilene por-tion of the Central West Texas area, suchsales are presently being served from theNorth Texas plant of this handler. TheRed River Valley milk could have beendelivered to Abilene in 1966 at an aver-

age of about 22 cents per hundredweightless than the Central West Texas Class Iprice.

About 4 cents of these differences Inprices was due to the action of separatesupply-demand adjustors affecting theClass I prices. Olilcial notice Is takenthat a hearing has been held at whichproposals were offered to establish a com-mon supply-demand adjustor for allOklahoma and Texas orders which wouldremove supply-demand adjustor differ-ences between these markets. If thesesupply-demand adjustor disparities hadbeen removed in 1966. milk from both theRed River Valley and Lubbock-Plainvewmarkets could have been delivered toMidland at 12 cents less than the Cen-tral West Texas price at that location.

While Central West Texas handlersand producers are not currently losingClass I sales to other markets, there isclearly potential for such loss In the cur-rent price alignment with such orders.The potential loss is greatest with respectto sales of the Midland plant since theoperator of this plant also operates another order plant which could serve theMidland sales area. The Imminent threatto loss of Class I sales to other marketsis with respect to the sales served bythe Midland plant.

The recommended decision propozedthat prices be reduced by 10 cents atplants located in the Abilene area and by5 cents in the San Angelo area. After areview of the record, it is concluded thatno change should be made in prices ap-plicable at these plant locations at thistime. Strong exceptions were filed to therecommended decision which proposedreduction of prices at pool plants at loca-tions other than at Midland. Exceptorspointed out that only at the Midlandplant location is there any immediateneed for price adjustment.

Review of the record evidence in lightof the exceptions filed indicates there isless need at this time for price adjust-ments at plants located in the Abileneand San Angelo areas than at the Mid-land plant. The Midland handler couldserve the local distribution area from hisLubbock-PlainvIew plant and such ClassI sales would be lost to producers in thismarket.

Handlers with plants at Abilene couldstart serving the fluid milk sales in thismarketing area from their plants underother orders. There is no indication onthe record that they Intend to do so atthis time. The current alignment ofprices at the Abilene area plants and theprices at plants of such handlers underother orders would indicate little or noprice advantage could accrue to handlersIf sales were shifted to other order plants.The Central West Texas handlers withplants at Abilene and San Angelo do notoperate Red River Valley plants underwhich some price advantage might befound.

While handlers under the Red RiverValley order can deliver milk to Abilenefor less than the Central West Texasprices at Abilene and San Angelo. no RedRiver Valley handler is currently makingsales in the city of Abilene or n othercities close to Abilene. Except for the

sales In the Midland-Odessa area notedabove, Red River Valley handlers wereshown to have sales in only seven of the32 cities of the marketing area. Theseseven cities are small cities in the gen-eral area nearest to Wichita Falls, wherethese handiers' plants are located. Evenin these cities their sales exceed 10 per-cent of the total in only two dties, forwhich It was claimed their sales were 17and 20 percent, respectively, of totalsales. One handler rezulated by the SanAntonio order, but whose plant is locatedin the Red River Valley marketing area,distributes more generally over the Cn-

,tral West Texas are, but was not shownto have over 10 percent of total sales inany cty. In Abilene this percentage was2 percent.

While there is potential danger of lossof Abilene sales to Red River Valley milk,there is no present showing of such lozznor danger that It will become substan-tial in the immediate future. Should suchlosses occur, an amendatory hearingcould be called to examine the need forfurther price alignment.

Accordingly. It is concluded that ac-tion on this record should be limited toremoval of the plus 15-cent location ad-Justment at plants located within 70mlles of Midland, Tex.

2. Emergency action on Issue 1. TheMidland handler and the cooperativeasociation urged that emergency sus-pension action be taken and that a rec-ommended decision on Issue 1 withrespect to the Midland price be omitted.Other handlers objected to taking emer-gency action contending that this is aproblem that has existed for a long timeand there is no urgency in the matterwhich would require deviation from nor-mal amendatory procedures.

In view of the expressed oppositionto the emergency suspension or elimina-tion of a recommended decision andbecause testimony on the record indi-cates no Imminence of disorderly mar-keting conditlolz in the area, emergencyaction is denied.

CONTROL ZONE AND TRANSITIONAREA

Proposed DesignationThe Federal Aviation Administration

is considering amendments to Part 71of the Federal Aviation Regulations thatwould designate a control zone and tran-sition area at Point Barrow, Alaska, asfollows:

1. The Point Barrow. Alaska, controlzone would be within a 5-mile radius ofthe Point Barrow AFS Airport, PointBarrow, Alaska (latitude, 71020'18" N.,longitude 156°38'00" W.) ; within 2 mileseach side of the 0410 True (0150 M)bearing from the Point Barrow radiobeacon (PBA), extending from the 5-mile radius zone to 8 miles northeast ofthe RBN; within 2 miles each ide ofthe 1710 True (1450 M) bearing fromthe Point Barrow RBN (PBA), extend-Ing from the 5-nille radius zone to 8miles south of the RBN; within a 5-mileradius of the Wiley Post-Will RogersMemorial Airport, Barrow, Alaska (lati-tude 7117'05" N., longitude 156046'05"W.) ; within 2 miles each side of the 226°

True (2000 A) bearing from the PointBarrow, Alaska RBN (BRW), extendingfrom the 5-mile radius zone to 8 milessouthwest of the RBN; and within 2miles each side of the 2660 True (2400 l)bearing from the Point Barrow RBN(BRW), extending from the 5-mile ra-dius zone to 8 miles west of the RBN.This control zone would be effective dur-ing the specific dates and times estab-lished in advance by a Notice to Airmen.The effective date and time would there-after be continuously published in theAla ska Airman's Guide and ChartSupplement.

2. The Point Barrow, Alaska, transi-tion area would be designated as thatairspace extending upward from 700 feetabove the surface within a 17-mile radiusof latitude 71018'00" N., longitude 156043'00" W. This transition area would beeffective during the specific dates andtimes established in advance by a Noticeto Airmen. The effective date and timewould thereafter be continuously pub-lished in the Alaska Airman's Guide andChart Supplement.

The proposed control zone and transl-tion area would provide controlled air-space for aircraft executing holding pat-terns, and instrument approach anddeparture procedures for the airportsconcerned.

Considerably more than 200 annualinstrument approach procedures havebeen conducted in the Point Barrow areafor a number of years. The continuingvolume of instrument operations in thisarea of notably poor weather conditionsdictates the need for the proposed con-trol zone and transition area.

Minimum facilities necessary to sup-port the proposed control zone, transi-tion area and a public instrument ap-

proach procedure for the Point Barrowarea are planned in the near future.Special Instrument approach proceduresusing a private radio beacon to both air-ports, are authorized for a scheduledair carrier.

A part-time Flight Service Station isexpected to be operational at Barrow,Alas-La, in the near future. Initially, thehours of operation will be from 0800 to1800, local time, daily. However, afterIt has been in operation for a sufficientperiod of time, a determination will bemade concerning the hours of operationrequired to meet the public need. Thetime of weather observations, point-to-point communications to Fairbanks,Alaska, air route traffic control center,and air/ground communications capabi-Ity will coincide with the hours of opera-Uon of the Flight Service Station.

As parts of thee proposals relate tonavigable airspace outside the UnitedStates, this notice is submitted in con-sonance with the ICAO InternationalStandards and Recommended Practices.

Applicability of International Stand-ards and Recommended Practices, by theAir Traffic Service, FAA, in areas out-side domestic airspace of the UnitedStates is governed by Article 21 andAnnex 11 to the Convention on Interna-tional Civil Aviation ICAO), which per-tains to the establishment of air navi-gation facilities and services necessaryto promoting the safe, orderly, andexpeditious flow of civil air traffic. Itspurpose is to Insure that civil flying oninternational air routes is carried outunder uniform conditions designed toimprove the safety and efficiency of airoperations.

The International Standards andRecommended Practices in Annex 11apply in those parts of the airspace un-der the Jurisdiction of a contractingstate, derived from ICAO, wherein airtralie services are provided and alsowhenever a contracting state accepts theresponsibillty of providing air trafficservices over high seas or in airspace ofundetermined sovereignty. A contractingstate accepting such responsibility mayapply the International Standards andRecommended Practices to civil aircraftin a manner consistent with that adoptedfor airspace under Its domestic jurisdic-tion.

In accordance with Article 3 of theConvention on International Civil Avia-tion, Chicago, 1944, state aircraft areexempt from the provisions of Annex 11and Its Standards and RecommendedPractices. As a contracting state, theUnited States agreed by Article 3 (d) thatIts state aircraft will be operated ininternational airspace with due regardfor the safety of civil aircraft.

Since this action Involves, in part, thedesignation of navigable airspace outsidethe United States, the Administrator hasconsulted with the Secretary of State andSecretary of Defense in accordance withthe provisions of Executive Order 10854.

PROPOSED RULE MAKING

Plant Construction Permits." 1 The pur-pose of the proposed amendment wouldbe to provide guidance to applicants indeveloping the principal design criteriato be included in applications for Com-mission construction permits. TheseGeneral Design Criteria would not addany new requirements, but are intendedto describe more clearly present Com-mission requirements to assist applicantsin preparing applications.

The proposed amendment would com-plement other proposed amendments toPart 50 which were published for publiccomment in the FEDERAL REGISTER onAugust 16, 1966 (31 F-R. 10891).

The proposed amendments to Part 50reflect a recommendation made by aseven-member Regulatory Review Panel,appointed by the Commission to study:(1) The programs and procedures forthe licensing and regulation of reactorsand (2) the decision-making process inthe Commission's regulatory program.The Panel's report recommended thedevelopment, particularly at the con-struction permit stage of a licensingproceeding, of design criteria for nuclearpower plants. Work on the developmentof such criteria had been in process atthe time of the Panel's study.

As a result, preliminary proposedcriteria for the design of nuclear powerplants were discussed with the Com-mission's Advisory Committee on ReactorSafeguards and were informally distrib-uted for public comment in CommissionPress Release H-252 dated November 22,1965. In developing the proposed criteriaset forth in the proposed amendmentsto Part 50, the Commission has takenInto consideration comments and sug-gestions from the Advisory Committeeon Reactor Safeguards, from membersof industry, and from the public.

Section 50.34, paragraph (b), as pub-lished for comment in the FEDERAL REG-ISTER on August 16, 1966, would requirethat each application for a constructionpermit include a preliminary safetyanalysis report. The minimum informa-tion to be included in this preliminarysafety analysis report is (1) a descrip-tion and safety assessment of the site,(2) a summary description of the facil-ity, (3) a preliminary design of thefacility, (4) a preliminary safety analysisand evaluation of the facility, (5) anidentification of subjects expected to betechnical specifications, and (6) a pre-liminary plan for the organization,training, and operation. The followinginformation is specified for inclusion aspart of the preliminary design of thefacility:

(I) The principal design criteria forthe facility;

(i) The design bases and the relationof the design bases to the principaldesign criteria;

(iI) Information relative to materialsof construction, general arrangementand approximate dimensions, sufficient

'Inasmuch as the Commission has underconsideration other amendments to 10 CFRPart 50 (31 P.R. 10891), the amendment pro-posed herein would be a further revision toPart 50 previously published for commentin the FEDxRAL RGxsrTu.

to provide reasonable assurance that thefinal design will conform to the designbases with adequate margin for safety;

The "General Design Criteria for NuclearPower Plant Construction Permits" pro-posed to be included as Appendix A tothis part are intended to aid the appli-cant in development item (i) above, theprincipal design criteria. All criteria es-tablished by an applicant and acceptedby the Commission would be incor-porated by reference in the constructionpermit. In considering the issuance ofan operating license under the regula-tions, the Commission would assure thatthe criteria had been met in the detaileddesign and construction of the facilityor that changes in such criteria havebeen justified.

Section 50.34 as published in the FED-ERAL REGISTER on August 16, 1966, wouldbe further amended by adding to Part 50a new Appendix A containing the Gen-eral Design Criteria applicable to theconstruction of nuclear power plantsand by a specific reference to thisAppendix in § 50.34, paragraph (b).

The Commission expects that theprovisions of the proposed amendmentsrelating to General Design Criteria forNuclear Power Plant Construction Per-rpits will be useful as interim guidanceuntil such time as the Commission takesfurther action on them.

Pursuant to the Atomic Energy Actof 1954, as amended, and the Adminis-trative Procedure Act of 1946, asamended, notice is hereby given thatadoption of the following amendmentsto 10 CFR Part 50 is contemplated. Allinterested persons who desire to submitwritten comments or suggestions in con-nection with the proposed amendmentsshould send them to the Secretary, U.S.Atomic Energy Commission, Washing-

industry estimates indicate that about2,861,000 short tons, raw value, sugar willbe produced from the 1966 crop fromabout 1,230,000 planted acres. Accordingto beet sugar company figures, about1,207,101 acres have been or will beplanted to 1967-crop sugar beets.

Views and recommendations on theneed for establishing proportionateshares may be presented orally at thehearing, preferably supported In writingby an original and two copies of the oralstatement. Views and recommendationsmay also be submitted In writing (orig-inal and two copies) at the hearing orthey may be mailled to the Director,Sugar Policy Staff, Agricultural Stabili-zation and Conservation Service, U.S.Department of Agriculture, Washington,D.C. 20250, postmarked not later thanAugust 8, 1967.

Oral and written views proposing thatproportionate shares be established forthe 1968 crop should include recom-mendations as to the level of the nationalsugar beet acreage requirement and as tnthe details of a program. These wouldinclude such Items as methods (form-ulae) of establishing State allocations,area allotments and farm bases, the levelof set asides for new producers, appealsand adjustments, and the acreage, if any,to be reserved for any nonaffiliated singleplant processor of sugar beets.

AMERICAN & FOREIGN POWER CO.,INC.

Notice of Filing of Application Ex-empting Transactions Between Af-filiated Persons

JuLY 5, 1967.Notice is hereby given that American

& Foreign Power Co., Inc. ("ForeignPower"), 2 Rector Street, New York, N.Y.,a Maine corporation, a registered closed-end nondiversified investment company,and a majority-owned subsidiary of Elec-tric Bond and Share Co., has filed an ap-plication pursuant to section 17(b) of theInvestment Company Act of 1940 ("Act")for an order exempting from the provi-sions of section 17(a) of the Act the pro-posed purchase from Amercon EAter-prises, Ltd. ("Amercon"), a whollyowned subsidiary of Foreign Power, by

Aluminum Company of America ("Al-coa"), of all of Amercon's holdings ofcommon stock of Aluminio, S.A. de C.V.("Aluminio"). All interested persons arereferred to the application, which Is onfile with the Commission, for a full state-ment of the representations therein,which are summarized below.

The proposed transaction. Amerconand Alcoa have entered into an agree-ment under which it is proposed thatAlcoa will purchase Amercon's entirestock holdings, consisting of 14 percentof the common stock of Aluminio, 52,500shares, for $35 per share or a total priceof $1,837,500 plus any cash dividends ac-crued and unpaid at the closing date.Each share of common stock carries acoupon which will entitle Alcoa to a com-mon stock dividend of two-thirds of ashare per share.

Aluminio, a Mexican corporation whichoperates an aluminum smelter in Vera-cruz, Mexico, was formed by Amercon,Alcoa and Intercontinental S.A., a Mexi-can "corporation, pursuant to agreementsof September 25 and October 6, 1961. Aspart of this arrangement Amercon ob-tained the 52,500 shares which are thesubject of this application at a costequivalent to $420,000 or $8 per shareand subordinate debentures in totalprincipal amount of $3,150,000. As of thedate of the application $1,925,000 prin-cipal amount of such debentures re-mained outstanding. As of December 31,1966, Aluminio had consolidated assetsof $16.9 million, outstanding long-termdebt of $4.8 million (excluding currentmaturities), preferred stock with a totalpar value equivalent to $3.8 million, andcommon stock equity equivalent to $5.9million.

Aluminlo is an affiliated person ofForeign Power by virtue of ForeignPower's ownership of all of the capitalstock of Amercon and Amercon's owner-ship of 14 percent of the common stockof Aluminio. Alcoa is an affiliated personof Aluminio by virtue of its ownershipof 131,250 shares or 35 percent of thecommon stock of Aluminio. Alcoa alsoowns 368,750 shares (77.6 percent) ofthe preferred (nonvoting) stock ofAluminio.

Upon consummation of the proposedtransaction, Alcoa will own 49 percentof the common stock of Alumlnio, Inter-continental, S.A., will own 35 percent andother Mexican nationals will own 16percent. Americon will still own the$1,925,000 principal amount of Aluminosubordinate debentures which the appli-cation states it is presently negotiatingto sell to a third party. However, thisis not part of the transaction for whichan exemption is sought.

Commission jurisdiction. Section 17(a), as hdre pertinent, makes unlawfulthe purchase by Alcoa, an affiliated per-son of an affiliated person (Alumino) ofa registered investment company (For-eign Power), of any securities fromAmercon (a company controlled by suchregistered investment company). TheCommission may, upon application pur-suant to section 17(b), grant an orderexempting a transaction if it finds thatthe terms of the proposed transaction,

including the consideration to be paidor received, are reasonable and fair anddo not involve over-reaching on the partof any person concerned, that the pro-posed transaction Is consistent with thepolicy of the registered Investment com-pany concerned, as recited In Its regis-tration statement and reports filed underthe Act, and Is consistent with thegeneral purposes of the Act.

Supporting statements. The applica-tion states that Aluminio's plant has afinished product capacity of 20.000 metrictons per year which Is now completelyabsorbed by the Mexican and exportmarkets; that the management of Alu-minio has proposed doubling plant ca-pacity, which expansion project It hasbeen estimated will cost $13 million overa period ending In 1972 and that Amercondeemed It desirable to terminate its stockinvestment in Alumino In view of thefact that Aluminio's contemplated ex-pansion program which was to befinanced by retained earnings made itextremely likely that Aluminlo wouldcontinue reinvesting earnings ratherthan paying dividends.

The application also states that dis-cussions were held with underwritingfirms in Mexico and elsewhere with aview to the sale of Amercon's stock in-terest and a firm offer to purchase theshares at a price equal to $30 per sharewas made by a Mexican firm. Both Inter-continental, S.A., and Alcoa have theright of first refusal In respect to anycontemplated sale of Amercon's Alu-minio stock. After advising them that Itwas considering such a sale, Amercon,with the knowledge of Intercontinental,SA., entered into direct negotiationswith Alcoa which resulted in agreementupon a price of $35 per share. Intercon-tinental, S.A., advised Foreign Power thatit did not wish to purchase any of theseshares.

The application further states that itappeared to Amercon that the proposedtransaction would be advantageous to itas the sale of stock could be effectedwithout delay and at the same time thetransaction should be advantageous toAlcoa, because it will permit Alcoa tostrengthen Its position in Aluminlo.

The Series A-1 common stock of Alu-minio which Is Identical to Amercon'sstock, except that It Is held by Mexicannationals only, Is traded on the MexicoCity Stock Exchange, and between Janu-ary 1, 1967, and June 2, 1967, 11 trans-actions Involving 1,300 shares were re-corded, the low being $31.20 per shareand the high $32 per share. From decla-ration on April 27, 1967, until June 2,1967, there were no reported transactionsin the stock dividend shares on a "whenissued" basis and no reported transac-tions in the coupon attached to thecertificates for the outstanding commonstock, against the delivery of whichcoupon, certificates for the dividendshares will be Issued.

In addition, the application states thatthere Is no affiliation or other relation-ship between Electric Bond and ShareCo., Foreign Power and Amercon on theone hand and Alcoa on the other, except

FEDERAL REGISTER, VOL. 32, NO. 132-TUESDAY, JULY 1, 1967

NOTICES

by reason of the respective holdings ofthe stock of Alumlnto by Amercon andAlcoa- and that the price and terms of.sale are the result of negotiations atarm's-length between Amercon andAlcoa, and that each party, by virtue ofits ownership position in Auminto, hashad an equal opportunity to evaluateAluminlo and reach its own conclusionsconcerning the value of the shares ofcommon stock of Aluminlo which areproposed to be transferred.
