| Regulatory Analysis |
| NHTSA has been analyzing the costs and benefits of its future rulemakings (proposed and final rules) since 1970. There have been several Executive Orders since 1978 that require the analysis of proposed and final regulations. Executive Order 12866 (1993) is the current order. A regulatory analysis is written for all proposed and final rules that have identifiable costs and/or benefits. These analyses identify the problem that is address by the proposed rule, the alternative countermeasures, and the costs and benefits of those alternative countermeasures. The Regulatory Flexibility Act (1980) requires a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis when there is a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. In some cases, a regulatory analysis is accompanied by a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis. All of the regulatory analyses have been entered in the NHTSA docket. |
