RECOVERY ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY BOARD

4 CFR Ch. II

Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions

AGENCY: Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board.

ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda.

SUMMARY: This agenda announces the regulations the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board (Board) will have under development during the 12 months following publication. The purpose of publishing this agenda is to provide the public with an opportunity to participate in the rulemaking process.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The public is encouraged to contact the Board official listed for the particular agenda item. For further information concerning Board regulations or this semiannual agenda, contact Atticus Reaser, General Counsel, Office of General Counsel, Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board, 1717 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Suite 700, Washington, DC 20006; (202) 254-7900.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 602, executive agencies are required to publish in the Federal Register a regulatory flexibility agenda in April and October of each year. Such regulatory flexibility agenda must include rules that the agency expects to propose or promulgate that are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The Board will statutorily terminate on September 30, 2015. In light of the forthcoming termination, the Board expects to rescind all of its promulgated regulations effective September 30, 2015, through amendment to Title 4 of the Code of Federal Regulations by removing Chapter II, consisting of Parts 200 to 202. The Board does not expect to otherwise propose or promulgate any rules. The Board has determined, under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, that the rulemaking under consideration will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Moreover, as a result, no regulatory flexibility analysis is required pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Furthermore, the rulemaking being considered by the Board does not constitute "significant regulatory actions" within the meaning of Executive Order 12866 entitled "Regulatory Planning and Review" and, therefore, no Regulatory Plan is required.

Dated: April 6, 2015.
