DELAWARE RIVER BASIN COMMISSION


Notice of Proposed Rulemaking; Proposed Amendments to the 
Administrative Manual--Rules of Practice and Procedure Concerning Fees 
Associated With Responses to the Freedom of Information Act Requests

AGENCY: Delaware River Basin Commission.

SUMMARY: The Delaware River Basin Commission (Commission) will hold a 
public hearing to receive comments on proposed amendments to the 
agency's Administrative Manual--Rules of Practice and Procedure 
updating the fee schedule associated with Commission responses to 
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. The current schedule of 
fees was promulgated in 1975 and has not been updated since. Over the 
past quarter of a century, computer technologies have introduced new 
methods of recording and reproducing information that were not 
contemplated by the 1975 regulations, and administrative costs have 
increased. The proposed fee structure reflects current technology and 
costs. The current fees, at Section 2.8.10 of the Administrative 
Manual--Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 401.110, and proposed 
amendments may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at http://www.drbc.net.

DATES: The public hearing will be held on Friday, May 31, 2002, during 
the Commission's regular business meeting, which will begin at 1:00 
p.m. The meeting on May 31 must end by 3:00 p.m., but if necessary, the 
hearing will continue at the Commission's next scheduled business 
meeting until all those who wish to testify are afforded an opportunity 
to do so. Persons wishing to testify are asked to register in advance 
with the Commission Secretary by phoning 609-883-9500 ext. 203. Written 
comments will be accepted through the close of the public hearing; 
however, earlier submittals would be appreciated.

ADDRESSES: The public hearing will be held at Grey Towers National 
Historic Landmark, 151 Grey Towers Drive, Milford, PA. Directions will 
be posted on the Commission's Web site at 
http://www.drbc.net by April 1, 2002. Written comments should be 
addressed to the Commission Secretary at DRBC, P.O. Box 7360, West 
Trenton, NJ 08628-0360.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Please contact Pamela Bush at 609-883-
9500 ext. 203 with questions about the proposed amendments or the 
rulemaking process. Notice also is posted on the Commission's Web site, 
at http://www.drbc.net.

    Dated: March 7, 2002.
Pamela M. Bush,
Commission Secretary.
