   ACTION:  Correcting Amendment

   SUMMARY:  This document contains a correction to the final regulations, which were published in the Federal Register on Thursday, June 15, 1995 (60 FR 31391). The regulations provided the procedural and substantive rules for SRBC review and approval of water resources projects.

   DATES:  Effective upon publication in the Federal Register and retroactive on May 11, 1995

   FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Richard A. Cairo, General Counsel, (717) 238-0423; Fax: (717)238-2436; e-mail: rcairo@srbc.net

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

   The SRBC adopted a final rule on May 11, 1995 establishing: (1) the scope and procedures for review and approval of projects under Section 3.10 of the Susquehanna River Basin Compact, Pub. L. 91-575; 83 Stat. 1509 et seq. (the Compact); and (2) special standards under Section 3.4(2) of the Compact governing water withdrawals and consumptive use of water. The definitions included in that final rulemaking action were intended to match the definitions provided in the Compact. Because of a typographical transposition, the definition of ''project'' in the final rule does not match the definition of ''project'' in Article 1, Section 1.1(7) of the Compact.

Need for Correction

   As published, the final regulations contain an error that may prove to be misleading to project applicants and needs to be corrected.

List of Subjects in 18 CFR Part 803

   Administrative practice and procedure, Water resources.

   Accordingly, 18 CFR part 803 is corrected by making the following correcting amendment:
