NOTICE OF CANCELLATION OF OCTOBER 9TH DBE NPRM LISTENING SESSION
Due to the government shutdown as of October 1, 2013, and the uncertainty regarding when the shutdown will end, the Department cannot be certain that it will have sufficient funding authority on October 9, 2013 to hold this listening session. Therefore, the Department has decided to cancel this meeting. Once the issues regarding the lapse in government funding have been resolved, the Department will reschedule the public listening session and notify the public of the new date and time. The comment period will remain open until October 30, 2013, which may be extended based on when the Department will be able to reschedule the listening session.
