It could be in the Footnote paragraph tag/style, under the Advanced tab, with the Frame Above Pgf. setting. 

Or someone could have edited the Footnote frame on the References pages.

Can you post the document? I think the forum will let you drop .fm files now.

You need the entire manual or just the book and IOM?  The IOM is the only section I have this issue with.  I have something in the Reference page that might be suspect in the IOM section.

The solution was to select the entire footer area and outside that footer areas, but not inside text area.  I was able to see the line boundary boxes and selected the line to delete it.

 

Thanks Rick!
