SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Surface Transportation Board (Board) has
adopted rules providing a means for the binding, voluntary arbitration
of certain disputes subject to the statutory jurisdiction of the Board.
By oversight, the Board's certification that these rules will not have
a significant economic effect on a substantial number of small entities
(set forth on page 12 of the Board's decision) was not included in the
Federal Register notice. Accordingly, in the final rule published on
September 2, 1997 (62 FR 46217), make the following correction:
On page 46217, in the first column, at the end of the last complete
paragraph add the following sentence: ``The Board certifies that these
rules will not have a significant economic effect on a substantial
number of small entities.''
By the Board, Vernon A. Williams, Secretary.
