43010 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 154 / Monday, August 11, 1997 / Notices

with the text of 36 CFR, part 51, as

revised on October 5, 1992.

2. Chapter 19 of NPS–48 is amended

by deleting the first sentence of

subsection G and replacing it with the

following two sentences:

When a concessioner’s Annual Overall

Rating is Unsatisfactory for a year, or

Marginal for two consecutive years, it

constitutes grounds for termination of the

contract/permit. Further, if a concessioner

receives an annual overall rating of

Unsatisfactory during the last year prior to

issuance of a prospectus, or an annual overall

rating of Marginal during the 2 years prior to

issuance of a prospectus, then the

concessioner is not entitled to a right of

preference in the renewal of its contract or

permit.

3. Chapter 24 of NPS–48 is clarified,

effective immediately as a matter of law,

by adding the following two sentences

to the end of the first paragraph of

section 5.i.:

Franchise fee waivers are only permissible

under this section or otherwise where the

concession contract or permit in question

contains an express provision which

authorizes such a waiver or when payment

of franchise fees is otherwise excused by

operation of law. In addition, even in

circumstances where a concession contract or

permit contains such an express franchise fee

waiver provision, such waiver authority

applies only to payment of franchise fees; it

does not apply to any other financial or other

obligations a concessioner may have under

the terms of a concession contract or permit

unless the contract or permit in question

expressly so states.

3. Chapter 29 of NPS–48 is amended

by deleting subsection D.2.b.

4. Chapter 21, Standard 1, of NPS–48

is amended, effective immediately, by

deleting existing Standard 1 and

replacing it with a new Standard 1

conforming with the revised ‘‘Food

Code’’ (exclusive of Annex 1 thereto)

issued by the United States Public

Health Service in 1993. Copies of the

revised Standard 1 are available upon

request.

All other portions of NPS–48 remain

in effect.
