Proposed Rule: Direct Final Rulemaking Procedures

NOTE: The item below may be impacted by a more recently published rulemaking or notice. View Related Rulemakings for more information.

Federal Register: 75FR 12720
RIN: 2126-AB23
Docket #: FMCSA-2009-0354
(What is this?)
49 CFR Part: 389
 
Publication Date: 3/17/2010
Comment By Date: 4/16/2010

Action:

Notice of proposed rulemaking.

Summary:

FMCSA proposes to amend its regulations by establishing direct final rulemaking procedures for use on noncontroversial rules. Under these procedures, FMCSA would make regulatory changes that would become effective a specified number of days after the date of publication in the Federal Register, unless FMCSA receives written adverse comment(s) or written notice of intent to submit adverse comment(s), received by the date specified in the direct final rule. These new procedures would expedite the promulgation of routine or noncontroversial rules by reducing the time and resources necessary to develop, review, clear, and publish separate proposed and final rules. FMCSA would not use the direct final rule procedures for complex or controversial issues.
