deadlines requiring the submission of material to the Board were 
tolled. The Board is now providing notice that any material due to be 
submitted to the Board during the shutdown is due no later than October 
24, 2013. Should a party to a proceeding believe that further 
modification to a procedural schedule is necessary, the party should

be considered filed on October 17, 2013.
    This action will not significantly affect either the quality of the 
human environment or the conservation of energy resources.

    Decided: October 18, 2013.

    By the Board, Rachel D. Campbell, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.
