Notice Pursuant to the National Cooperative Research and 
Production Act of 1993 Fuel Cell Commercialization Group

    Notice is hereby given that, on April 2,1998, pursuant to Section 
6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993, 
15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), the Fuel Cell Commercialization 
Group (``FCCG'') has filed written notifications simultaneously with 
the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission disclosing 
changes in its membership/project status. The changes include the 
resignation and withdrawal of nine members of the FCCG. The 
notifications were filed for the purpose of extending the Act's 
provisions limiting the recovery of antitrust plaintiffs to actual 
damages under specified circumstances. Specifically, the FCCG advised 
that City of Burbank Public Service Department, Burbank, CA; Central 
and Southwest Services, Dallas, TX; Lincoln Electric System, Lincoln, 
NE; City of Manassas Electric Department, Manassas, VA; Massachusetts 
Municipal Wholesale Electric Company, Ludlow, MA; Southern California 
Edison, Irwindale, CA; New York Power Authority, New York, NY; 
Oglethrope Power Corporation, Tucker, GA; and Zieglar Coal Holding 
Company, Fairview Heights, IL are no longer members of the FCCG.
    No other changes have been made in either the membership or planned 
activity of the group research project. Membership in this group 
research project remains open, and the FCCG remains open, although 
certain membership benefits are based in part on the date on which the 
member joined the organization. The FCCG intends to file additional 
written notification disclosing all changes in membership.
    On September 21, 1990, the FCCG filed its original notification 
pursuant to section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice 
published a notice in the Federal Register pursuant to section 6(b) of 
the Act on October 25, 1990, 55 FR 43050.
    The last notification was filed with the Department on January 24, 
1996. A notice was published in the Federal Register pursuant to 
Section 6(b) of the Act on April 10, 1996, 61 FR 15970.
