Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions
AGENCY: General Services Administration (GSA).
ACTION: Semiannual Regulatory Agenda.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This agenda announces the proposed regulatory actions that GSA
plans for the next 12 months and those that were completed since the
fall 2012 edition. This agenda was developed under the guidelines of
Executive Order 12866 ``Regulatory Planning and Review.'' GSA's purpose
in publishing this agenda is to allow interested persons an opportunity
to participate in the rulemaking process. GSA also invites interested
persons to recommend existing significant regulations for review to
determine whether they should be modified or eliminated. Proposed rules
may be reviewed in their entirety at the Government's rulemaking Web
site at http://www.regulations.gov.
Since the fall 2007 edition, the Internet has been the basic means
for disseminating the Unified Agenda. The complete Unified Agenda will
be available online at www.reginfo.gov, in a format that offers users a
greatly enhanced ability to obtain information from the Agenda
database.
Because publication in the Federal Register is mandated for the
regulatory flexibility agendas required by the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 602), GSA's printed agenda entries include only:
(1) Rules that are in the Agency's regulatory flexibility agenda,
in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, because they are
likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities; and
(2) Any rules that the Agency has identified for periodic review
under section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
Printing of these entries is limited to fields that contain
information required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act's Agenda
requirements. Additional information on these entries is available in
the Unified Agenda published on the Internet. In addition, for fall
editions of the Agenda, the entire Regulatory Plan will continue to be
printed in the Federal Register, as in past years, including GSA's
regulatory plan.

Regulatory Secretariat Division at (202) 501-4755.
