proposal known  until  notice  of  it  appears  in  the  canada
gazette.   at  that  time,  copies  of  the  proposal  will  be
available from all regional and district offices of doc.  there
will  then  be  a  180  day  period  in  which  amateurs, their
organizations  and  other  interested  parties   may   comment.
