SUMMARY: MTMC, for the Department of Defense, intends to modify the

shipments between locations in the United States and to and from 
locations in Alaska and Canada. The draft publication may be obtained 
from the MTMC Home Page on the Internet at the following address: 
http://baileys_mtmcwww.army.mil. After the MTMC Home Page screen has 
loaded, access the ``Functional Support'' button on the screen. After 
the screen appears, access the ``Global Traffic Management'' button on 
the screen. Then under the ``Freight Movements'' section, access the 
``Freight Traffic Rules'' button. Then access ``MFTRP No. 30,'' and the 
draft publication will download for you to highlight and copy to any 
word processor to read and/or print. Written comments should reach
