ATTACHMT: Attached to Letter Dated 09/16/94 from Christopher A. Hart (for Ricardo Martinez) to Doug Bereuter (A42; Part 303)

TEXT: I am writing to you again regarding my continuing interest in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) long-delayed rulemaking concerning compressed natural gas fuel containers. In previous correspondence, you stated that the final r ule would be sent to the Office of Management and Budget for review. Has this happened or is this no longer necessary? Please send me an update on the current status of the rulemaking. Despite past assurances, this matter continues to be stalled. I w ant evidence that progress is being made. This matter is too important to be placed on NHTSA's back-burner.
