Summary
The FHWA is announcing the extension of the period for public comment on draft Volume III, Scenario Analysis, of the Comprehensive Truck Size and Weight (TS&W) Study. The original date for closing the comment period was March 16, as published in the January 15, 1999, Federal Register (64 FR 2699). This extension is in response to requests for additional time
to submit comments. The FHWA believes that an additional 30 days will permit interested persons reasonable time to provide meaningful comments. Volume III describes the analytical framework used to evaluate a set of alternative TS&W scenarios selected for review by the DOT. The impacts of five different scenarios have been assessed and compared to the status quo. The results of DOT's analysis are presented in Volume III. Those who have already submitted comments may supplement them.
