regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the 
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or

substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information 
and/or data that you used.

arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be 
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and 
suggest alternatives.
