How do I prepare and submit comments?
Your comments must be written and in English. To ensure that your
comments are filed correctly in the docket, please include the docket
number of this document in your comments.
Please submit one copy (two copies if submitting by mail or hand
delivery) of your comments, including the attachments, to the docket
following the instructions given above under ADDRESSES. Please note, if
you are submitting comments electronically as a PDF (Adobe) file, we
ask that the documents submitted be scanned using an Optical Character
Recognition (OCR) process, thus allowing the agency to search and copy
certain portions of your submissions.
How do I submit confidential business information?
Any submissions containing Confidential Information must be
delivered to OST in the following manner:
Submitted in a sealed envelope marked ``confidential
treatment requested'';
Accompanied by an index listing the document(s) or
information that the submitter would like the Departments to withhold.
The index should include information such as numbers used to identify
the relevant document(s) or information, document title and
description, and relevant page numbers and/or section numbers within a
document; and
Submitted with a statement explaining the submitter's
grounds for objecting to disclosure of the information to the public.
OST also requests that submitters of Confidential Information
include a non-confidential version (either redacted or summarized) of
those confidential submissions in the public docket. In the event that
the submitter cannot provide a non-confidential version of its
submission, OST requests that the submitter post a notice in the docket
stating that it has provided OST with Confidential Information. Should
a submitter fail to docket either a non-confidential version of its
submission or to post a notice that Confidential Information has been
provided, we will note the receipt of the submission on the docket,
with the submitter's organization or name (to the degree permitted by
law) and the date of submission.
Will the Agency consider late comments?
U.S. DOT will consider all comments received before the close of
business on the comment closing date indicated above under DATES. To
