ACTION: Correcting amendments to final 

regulations. 

SUMMARY: This document contains 

corrections to DFARS final rule 2015– 

D001, Elimination of Quarterly 

Reporting of Actual Performance 

Outside the United States, which was 

published Thursday, December 11, 2014 

(79 FR 73499). The rule that is the 

subject of this correction eliminates the 

requirement for quarterly reporting of 

actual contract performance outside the 

United States contained at DFARS 

clause 252.225–7006. 

DATES: Effective December 19, 2014. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Manuel Quinones, telephone 571–372–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As 

published, the DFARS final rule 2015– 

D001 contains errors, which are in need 

of correction. DFARS section 252.225– 

7005 was inadvertently removed instead 

of section 252.225–7006. To correct this 

error, this technical amendment 

reinstates 252.225–7005 and removes 

DFARS section 252.225–7006.

[Docket No. FRA–2001–11213, Notice No. 

18] 

Alcohol and Drug Testing: 

Determination of Minimum Random 

Testing Rates for 2015 

AGENCY: Federal Railroad 

Administration (FRA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Notice of determination. 

SUMMARY: This notice of determination 

provides the FRA Administrator’s 

minimum annual random drug and 

alcohol testing rates for calendar year 

2015. According to data from FRA’s 

Management Information System, the 

rail industry’s random drug testing 

positive rate has remained below 1.0 

percent for the last two years. FRA’s 

Administrator has therefore determined 

that the minimum annual random drug 

testing rate for the period January 1, 

2015 through December 31, 2015, will 

remain at 25 percent of covered railroad 

employees. In addition, because the 

industry-wide random alcohol testing 

violation rate has remained below 0.5 

percent for the last two years, the 

Administrator has determined that the 

minimum random alcohol testing rate 

will remain at 10 percent of covered 

railroad employees for the period 

January 1, 2015 through December 31, 

2015. Railroads remain free, as always, 

to conduct random testing at higher 

rates. 

DATES: This notice of determination is 

effective December 19, 2014. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jerry 

Powers, FRA Drug and Alcohol Program 

Manager, W38–105, Federal Railroad 

Administration, 1200 New Jersey 

Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590 

(telephone 202–493–6313); or Sam Noe, 

FRA Drug and Alcohol Program 

Specialist (telephone 615–719–2951). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FRA 

determines the minimum annual 

random drug testing rate and minimum 

random alcohol testing rate for the next 

calendar year based on railroad industry 

data available for two calendar years (for 

this Notice, calendar years 2012 and 

2013). Data from FRA’s Management 

Information System shows the rail 

industry’s random drug testing positive 

rate has remained below 1.0 percent for 

the applicable two calendar years. 

FRA’s Administrator has therefore 

determined the minimum annual 

random drug testing rate for the period
