Title: Revisions to Procedures for the Departmental Appeals Board and Other Departmental Hearings 
Abstract: This notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) would amend Departmental regulations governing administrative review by the Departmental Appeals Board (DAB) to ensure that the final administrative decision of the Department reflects the considered judgment of the Secretary. Specifically, it would provide a process for Secretarial review of DAB decisions, and would make clear that the DAB must follow published guidance. The NPRM would address DAB review under a number of different authorities, and would also make technical changes to the DAB's regulations.
