The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) established guidelines federal agencies should follow when creating and disseminating important guidance. 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.

To meet this requirement we've created this web page which list FAA's Significant Guidance Documents.

If you want to learn more about this effort you can read the OMB Final Bulletin for Agency Good Guidance Practices (PDF).
