Subject: RANGE RULE TO O.M.B.
 
RANGE RULE SUBMITTED TO O.M.B.

On June 12, 1997, the Department of Defense (DOD) submitted the draft 
proposed Range Rule, designed to govern its response to explosive 
contamination at closed munitions impact ranges, to the White House 
Office of Management and the Budget (OMB) for review. During OMB 
review, there is no opportunity for public comment, but once the rule 
is formally proposed (in about two or three months) there will be a 
90-day comment period. During that period, DOD is expected to hold four 
regional public meetings to discuss the document, and the Range Rule 
Partnering Team, in which DOD meets with state officials, tribal 
representatives, and me, will be holding a session as well.

The Defense Department also reports that the Range Rule Risk 
Model/Protocol is likely to be released to the public in August.
