On May 25, 1976, FEA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking and public hearing to amend Chapter II, Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, to establish a new part setting forth regulations with respect to mandatory gasoline and diesel fuel rationing. Written comments were invited through June 28, 1976. Public hearings were held on June 21, 22, and 24, 1976, in Washington, Atlanta, Kansas City, San Francisco, and Anchorage. This contingency rationing plan, if approved by the Congress, would remain in standby status unless the President finds that putting the plan into effect is required by a severe energy supply interruption or in order to fulfill obligations of the US under the international energy program and transmits such finding to the Congress, together with a statement of the effective date and manner for exercise of such plan. The provisions of the contingency plan are discussed.
