Sec. 11.33
- How can I track FAA's rulemaking activities?
The best ways to track FAA's rulemaking activities are with the docket number or the regulation identifier number. (a) Docket number.
We assign a docket number to each rulemaking proceeding. Each rulemaking
document FAA issues in a particular rulemaking proceeding, as well as
public comments on the proceeding, will display the same docket number.
This number allows you to search DOT's Docket Management System (DMS) for
information on most rulemaking proceedings. You can view and copy docket
materials during regular business hours at the U.S. Department of
Transportation, Plaza Level 401, 400 7th Street, SW., Washington, DC
20590-0001. Or you can view and download docketed materials through the
Internet at http://dms.dot.gov. If you can't find the material in the
electronic docket, contact the person listed under
(b) Regulation identifier number. DOT publishes a semiannual agenda of all current and projected DOT rulemakings, reviews of existing regulations, and completed actions. This semiannual agenda appears in the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulations, published in the FEDERAL REGISTER in April and October of each year. The semiannual agenda tells the public about DOT's -- including FAA's -- regulatory activities. DOT assigns a regulation identifier number (RIN) to each individual rulemaking proceeding in the semiannual agenda. This number appears on all rulemaking documents published in the FEDERAL REGISTER and makes it easy for you to track those rulemaking proceedings in both the FEDERAL REGISTER and the semiannual regulatory agenda. |
