^®: CRE Regulatory Action of the Week

Agencies Publish Regulatory Agendas
Most federal agencies published their semi-annual regulatory agendas in the December 15, 2015 Federal Register. The Department of Agricultures' publication explains the purpose and reason for these regulatory agendas:

"This agenda provides summary descriptions of significant and not significant regulations being developed in agencies of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in conformance with Executive Orders 12866 'Regulatory Planning and Review,' and 13563 'Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review.' The agenda also describes regulations affecting small entities as required by section 602 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, Public Law 96-354. This agenda also identifies regulatory actions that are being reviewed in compliance with section 610(c) of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. We invite public comment on those actions as well as any regulation consistent with Executive Order 13563."
