section 1307(c) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century

Background

    On October 19, 2001, at 66 FR 53288, the FHWA issued a NPRM 
regarding the implementation of regulations for design-build 
contracting as mandated by section 1307(c) of the TEA-21. The heading 
of this NPRM inadvertently referenced an incorrect docket number, FHWA-
2000-7790 (this docket number references a final rule published by the 
Coast Guard). The purpose of this notice is to correct the docket 
number for the design-build contracting NPRM. The correct docket number 
for the design-build contracting NPRM is FHWA-2000-7799. All written 
comments submitted to the docket in response to the October 19, 2001, 
NPRM should reference the correct docket number, FHWA-2000-7799.
