In today's action, the Agency is proposing amendments to the regulations governing Corrective Action Management Units (CAMUs) concerning: the types of wastes that may be managed in a Corrective Action Management Unit (CAMU), the design standards that apply to CAMUs, the treatment requirements for wastes placed in CAMUs, information submission requirements for CAMU applications, responses to releases from CAMUs, and public participation requirements for CAMU decisions. In addition, today's proposed amendments would ``grandfather'' certain categories of CAMUs and create new requirements for CAMUs used only for treatment or storage (i.e., those in which wastes will not remain after closure). Today's action also requests comment on a potential change to the staging pile regulations. Finally, today's action proposes an approach to state authorization that would, as part of this rulemaking, grant ``interim authorization'' for today's amendments to most states currently authorized for the CAMU rule and would expedite the authorization process for states authorized for corrective action but not the CAMU rule. Today's proposed amendments are intended to make clearer the Agency's general minimum expectations for CAMUs and to make the CAMU process more consistent and predictable, as well as more explicit for the public.

That AD resulted from wheel brake system malfunctions on several of the affected airplanes where regular brake system maintenance had been performed. This AD retains the modification and inspection requirements of AD 92-01-02 and incorporates inspection and replacement requirements for additional landing gear brake assemblies.

The Office of the Secretary proposes to revise its definitions of revenue passenger and nonrevenue passenger in 14 CFR 241.03 to specify that a passenger traveling on a ticket or voucher received as compensation for denied boarding or as settlement of a consumer complaint is considered to be a revenue passenger. The revised definitions will be added to 14 CFR parts 217 and 298. The definitions will be in harmony with the definitions of revenue and non revenue passenger adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Harmonizing of DOT's and ICAO's definitions will prevent air carriers from being required to keep two sets of traffic enplanement statistics--one for reporting to ICAO and one for reporting to DOT. This action is taken at DOT's initiative.

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention is issuing a solicitation for applications to undertake a definitive study of recent trends in juvenile crime and violence in order to better understand the factors correlated with these trends, and to be prepared to explain future trends in delinquency and youth violence. This 5-year research project will explore ways to determine the reasons for changes in local juvenile crime trends in the 1990's and to monitor them into the next millennium. Federal, State, and local policymakers need to have a better sense of what went right in communities where declines occurred and what went wrong where there were increases or where rates continued at high levels. Therefore, it is necessary to develop methods to understand and monitor the reasons for such changes. It is expected that the lessons learned from this inquiry will yield a number of tools that Federal, State and local policymakers and planners can use to anticipate, monitor, and explain future trends and to plan effective prevention and intervention strategies.

This rule increases the assessment rate established for the Citrus Administrative Committee (Committee) for the 2000-2001 and subsequent fiscal periods from $0.00385 to $0.0055 per \4/5\-bushel carton of citrus handled. The Committee locally administers the marketing order which regulates the handling of oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, and tangelos grown in Florida. Authorization to assess citrus handlers enables the Committee to incur expenses that are reasonable and necessary to administer the program. The fiscal period began on August 1 and ends July 31. The assessment rate will remain in effect indefinitely unless modified, suspended, or terminated.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend its Rules of Practice applicable to the use of the Licensing Support Network (LSN) for the licensing proceeding on the disposal of high- level waste (HLW) at a geologic repository. The proposed amendments would establish the basic data structure and transfer standards (``design standards'') that LSN participant websites must use to make documentary material available. The proposed amendments would also clarify the authority of the LSN Administrator to establish guidance for LSN participants on how best to meet the design standards and to review participant designs for compliance with the standards. Finally, the proposed amendments would clarify the timing of participant compliance certifications.
