<p class="MsoNormal">I believe OMB has a 90 day window to act on a rule, and is allowed to request a 30 day extension.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I continue to hope/expect that the Feds will be true to their time schedule commitment in the Federal Register notice and release the final rule during March 2014. They better hop to it!!<o:p></o:p></p>
