Implementation of the Fastener Quality Act

AGENCY: National Institute of Standards and Technology, United States 
Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In the June 30, 1998, Federal Register notice announcing the 
final rule and extension of implementation date for the Fastener 
Quality Act, important information was inadvertently omitted from one 
of the amendments, which has created ambiguity in the final rule. 
Accordingly, the Director of the National Institute of Standards and 
Technology (NIST) is publishing this notice to correct that amendment.

DATES: Effective June 30, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. Subhas G. Malghan, FQA Program 
Manager, Technology Services, National Institute of Standards and 
Technology, Building 820, Room 306, Gaithersburg, MD 20899, telephone 
number (301) 975-5120.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register notice published on 
June 30, 1998, the letter (A) was inadvertently omitted from 
instruction number 4. Due to this omission, it was ambiguous whether 
subsections (B), (C), (D), and (E) were deleted from 
Sec. 280.810(c)(3)(i). Since the items listed in these subsections 
still are required, NIST is publishing this correction to the final 
rule to eliminate the ambiquity.
    In the final rule published in the Federal Register on June 30, 
1998 (63 FR 35507), on page 35508 in the first column, amendatory 
instruction number 4 is corrected to read as follows:
    4. Section 280.810(c)(3)(i)(A) is revised to read as follows:

    Dated: July 29, 1998.
Robert E. Hebner,
Acting Deputy Director, National Institute of Standards and Technology.
