optimum radial length is 300 feet, but

this length may be shortened to fit

within property boundaries. Wherever

possible, a cable plow method will be

used in the radial installation to

minimize soil disturbance.

(c) DGPS Antennas—Two 30 foot

masts to support six small (4 inches by

18 inches diameter) receiving antennas

will be required. The masts will be

installed on concrete foundations. The

antennas support the primary and

backup reference receivers and integrity

monitors.

(d) Equipment shelter—DGPS

transmitting equipment will be housed

in a 10 foot 8 inch by 16 foot 8 inch

shelter.

(e) Ultilities—The Coast Guard

proposes to use available commercial

power as the primary source for the

electronic equipment with battery

power as a backup. A telephone line

and modem will be required at each site

for remote monitoring and operation.

Proposed Finding

Implementation of a DGPS service at

Geiger Key, FL, is determined to have

no significant effect on the quality of the

human environment or require

preparation of an Environmental Impact

Statement.

Office of the Secretary

Federal Highway Administration

Announcement of Conference on DOT

Drug and Alcohol Testing

Requirements for Mexican Carriers

AGENCIES: Office of the Secretary,

Federal Highway Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Office of the Secretary

(OST), the Federal Highway

Administration (FHWA), and the

Mexico Secretariat of Communication in

Transportation (SCT) are holding a

conference on the implementation by

Mexican motor carriers of the DOTrequired drug and alcohol testing rules.

Members of the Mexican motor carrier

industry and the general public are

invited to attend. The governments of

Mexico and the United States are

working cooperatively to ensure that

companies needing to comply with the

rules are able to do so by the effective

date. This conference will provide

Mexican carriers with an opportunity to

meet SCT and DOT personnel and speak

with them on all issues related to

implementation of these rules. Both

governments strongly urge attendance

and participation of Mexican carriers.

DATES: June 24, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Holiday Inn, Downtown

Market Square, 318 West Durango

Street, San Antonio, Texas. The

conference will run from 8:00 a.m. to

5:00 p.m.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Mary Bernstein, Director, Office of Drug

Enforcement and Program Compliance,

Room 10317, (202–366–3784), 400 7th

Street, SW, Washington, D.C. 20590.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Omnibus Transportation Employee

Testing Act of 1991 required the

Secretary of Transportation to issue

regulations requiring controlled

substances and alcohol testing of

commercial motor vehicle drivers who

are subject to the commercial driver’s

licensing requirements of the

Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act of

1986, 49 U.S.C. Chapter 313. The final

rules, 49 CFR Part 40, ‘‘Procedures for

Transportation Drug and Alcohol

Testing Programs,’’ and 49 CFR Part

382, ‘‘Commercial Driver’s License

Program and Controlled Substance and

Alcohol Use and Testing,’’

implementing such testing, were

published on February 15, 1994.

Following comments from United

States, foreign industry, and other

interested parties, FHWA amended Part

382 on September 22, 1995 (60 FR

49322) and extended the drug and

alcohol testing requirements to foreign

employers and drivers who drive into

the United States. The implementation

dates of the requirements of 49 CFR Part

40 and Part 382 will go into effect on

July 1, 1996, for large foreign employers

(with more than 50 drivers), and will go

into effect on July 1, 1997, for small

foreign employers (with less than 50

drivers).

Currently, Mexico has a drug and

alcohol testing program which is wholly

supported and operated by the

government. This program will remain

intact under the control and

enforcement of SCT and run

concurrently with, but in addition to,

the DOT program requirements.

Mexican motor carriers must comply

with DOT requirements on their own,

by partnering with SCT, or by

contracting the requirements to

consortia/third party administrators (C/

TPA) working on the employer’s behalf.

The DOT is providing technical

assistance in a number of areas to speed

up the implementation process.

This conference will be an

opportunity for the Mexican employers

and their industry associations to have

a dialogue with OST, FHWA, and SCT

personnel regarding implementation

issues, questions, and concerns. OST,

FHWA, and SCT personnel will present

to the participants a concise overview of

the rule requirements. Although the

primary purpose of this conference is to

meet with Mexican motor carrier

industry officials, other Mexican or

United States interested parties, such as

laboratories, consortia, third party
