SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    The subject of the public hearing is the notice of proposed 
regulations (REG-103735-00 and REG-103736-00). The public hearing was 
originally scheduled on December 11, 2002, and notice of the public 
hearing was published in the Federal Register on Tuesday, October 22, 
2002 (67 FR 64842). Due to inclement weather, some hearing participants 
were unable to attend. For this reason, the IRS is rescheduling the 
public hearing.
    The rules of 26 CFR 601.601(a)(3) apply to the hearing.
    Persons who have submitted written comments and wish to present 
oral comments at the hearing, must submit an outline of the topics to 
be discussed and the amount of time to be devoted to each topic (signed 
original and eight copies) by Friday, January 3, 2002.
    A period of 10 minutes is allocated to each person for presenting 
oral comments.
    After the deadline for receiving outlines has passed, the IRS will 
prepare an agenda containing the schedule of speakers. Copies of the 
agenda will be made available, free of charge, at the hearing.
    Because of access restrictions, the IRS will not admit visitors 
beyond the immediate entrance area no more than 30 minutes before the 
hearing starts. For information about having your name placed on the 
building access list to attend the hearing, see the FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this document.
