While the LPTV station is secondary 

and can be displaced, we believe given 

the rural nature of Montana and 

neighboring states it is unlikely the 

LPTV station would be displaced, and if 

it was, Scripps would easily be able to 

find a displacement channel for it. 

This document does not contain 

information collection requirements 

subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act 

of 1995, Public Law 104–13. In addition, 

therefore, it does not contain any 

proposed information collection burden 

‘‘for small business concerns with fewer 

than 25 employees,’’ pursuant to the 

Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 

2002, Public Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(4). Provisions of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601– 

612, do not apply to this proceeding. 

Members of the public should note 

that all ex parte contacts are prohibited 

from the time a notice of proposed 

rulemaking is issued to the time the 

matter is no longer subject to 

Commission consideration or court 

review, see 47 CFR 1.1208. There are, 

however, exceptions to this prohibition, 

which can be found in § 1.1204(a) of the 

Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.1204(a). 

Pursuant to §§ 1.415 and 1.420 of the 

Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.415, 

1.420, interested parties may file 

comments and reply comments on or 

before the dates indicated on the first 

page of this document. Comments may

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 28, 2022, at 87 FR 11156, 

DOT published in the Federal Register 

a notice of proposed rulemaking 

proposing to amend its transportation 

industry drug testing program 

procedures regulations, 49 CFR part 40, 

to include oral fluid testing. The 

proposal includes other provisions to 

update the Department’s regulation, and 

to harmonize, as needed, with the new 

Mandatory Guidelines for Federal 

Workplace Drug Testing Programs using 

Oral Fluid established by the U.S. 

Department of Health and Human 

Services. In addition to adding oral fluid 

as a drug testing method and 

harmonizing with pertinent OFMG 

sections, we also propose to clarify 

certain part 40 provisions that cover 

urine drug testing procedures; to remove 

provisions that no longer are necessary; 

to add clarifying language to other 

provisions such as updated definitions 

and web links, as appropriate; and to 

update provisions to reflect issues that 

have arisen in recent practice. 

All members of the public, including 

DOT-regulated employers and 

employees, urine collectors, HHS–NLCP 

certified laboratories, Medical Review 

Officers, Substance Abuse Professionals, 

and Consortium/Third Party 

Administrations, Transportation trade 

organizations, and labor organizations 

are invited to submit comments. 

The original comment period for the 

proposal would have closed March 30, 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 55 / Tuesday, March 22, 2022 / Proposed Rules 16161 

2022. However, DOT stakeholders have 

expressed concern that this closing date 

does not provide sufficient time to 

coordinate with their respective 

members to develop comments to the 

NPRM and/or to submit comments to 

the docket. To allow time for interested 

parties to submit comments, the closing 

date is changed from March 30, 2022 to 

April 29, 2022. 

Signed in Washington, DC, on March 16, 

2022.
