Reports on the Effects of DOT Rulemakings
Access Reports
You may generate a current report by "clicking"
here. There are separate reports for each "effect." You may review the
individual effects reports by using the "pull down" menu. By "clicking" on the
title, you can pull up a summary description of the rulemaking. By
"clicking' on the docket number, where one is provided, you can gain access to
the public docket for the rulemaking. (The public rulemaking docket contains
agency issued documents, supporting documents, public comments, and other
related material.) Note that there may be entries on the reports for which rulemaking
dockets have not been opened yet.

DOT is providing this information as way to inform the public
regarding its regulatory activities. This information can be used in conjunction
with a number of tools already available to the public. For instance, DOT's
rulemaking dockets are maintained in the Federal Docket Management System
(FDMS), which electronically stores all DOT-issued documents, supporting
documents, public comments, and related documents regarding a
particular rulemaking. Click on the docket number shown in the reports to access
the particular docket. Once in the docket, you may sign up to receive an email notification
when particular documents are placed in the docket. You may also access
our "Report on Significant Rulemakings" -- a monthly report that provides detailed
information on each current DOT significant rulemaking. In addition, our
semi-annual Regulatory Agenda -- which provides information on our significant and nonsignificant rulemakings -- or our annual Regulatory Plan -- which provides
detailed information on some of our most important rulemakings -- may be accessed
via http://reginfo.gov, which provides the
Unified Agenda and Regulatory Plan for the Federal Government.
Questions
If you have substantive questions regarding a particular rulemaking, you may contact the responsible office directly by looking up the regulation in the
semi-annual DOT Regulatory
Agenda and obtaining the contact information for that office.
