SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

EPA, USCG, MMS, RSPA, and OSHA published a notice in the Federal
Register on June 5, 1996 (61 FR 28642), announcing the availability of
the NRT's Integrated Contingency Plan Guidance (``one plan''). The
guidance is intended to be used by facilities to prepare emergency
response plans. The intent of the NRT is to provide a mechanism for
consolidating multiple plans that facilities may have prepared to
comply with various regulations into one functional emergency response
plan or integrated contingency plan (ICP). The notice contained the
suggested ICP outline as well as guidance on how to develop an ICP and
demonstrate compliance with various regulatory requirements.

Need for Correction

As published, the notice contained minor transcription errors that
omitted certain information and should be corrected.
