PURPOSE AND EFFECT: To update language to clarify requirements for reexamination.

SUMMARY: Update language to clarify requirements for reexamination.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COST AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION: The agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.  The proposed change should not have any effect on small businesses or regulatory costs, because the cost of testing is not being changed.
