The Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
established guidelines federal agencies
should follow when creating and
disseminating important guidance
(Bulletin No. 07-02). Part of
these guidelines state that agencies
must provide easy access to a list of
all of an agency's significant guidance
documents in electronic form on its Web
site.
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) provides guidance
products to the public and the federal
community in fulfilling its mission.
CDC is currently compiling a list of
these documents and will shortly add
these to this Web site. CDC will
add any new significant guidance
documents that it issues to this Web
site within 30 days of their
publication. |
