Background
On January 18, 2007, the President issued Executive Order 13422, and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued its Final Bulletin for Agency Good Guidance Practices (72 FR 3432) establishing policies and procedures for the development, issuance, and use of significant guidance documents by Executive Branch departments and agencies. OMB issued the Bulletin to increase the quality and transparency of federal agency guidance practices, including guidance documents.
Treasury Guidance Documents: Guidance documents issued by the Department of the Treasury that meet the definition of “significant” under the OMB Final Bulletin for Agency Good Guidance Practices, will be published on this web page and the public will have an opportunity to submit comments on the document. If a Treasury bureau issues a significant guidance document, the bureau will publish the document to its website and a link will be established from this web page.
