Frequent Questions

How does EPA communicate with the public and seek comments on new or proposed regulations? How can I submit an official comment on proposed environmental regulations?

Many people get involved with EPA's regulations by submitting comments when we publish a proposed version in the Federal Register. You can submit comments on-line at Regulations.gov or you can make a submission via mail, e-mail, or EPA docket centers.

Often, you can also get involved well before a proposed regulation is published. And after a regulation is finalized, regulated entities (such as businesses, state governments, or individuals) can stay involved by learning how to comply.

At Get Involved with EPA Regulations you can learn how to:

  • Comment on our regulations
  • Keep tabs on rulemakings
  • Read our Regulatory Agendas and Plans
  • Access our docket centers
