<body>
<p>As part of our retrospective regulatory review, the FHWA intends to update 23 CFR part 772. This part was substantially updated in 2010; however, substantial comments from stakeholders and the public have suggested that the part could be rewritten for clarity and ease of use. The FHWA will assess ways to streamline its regulation, increase clarity, and improve the Noise Abatement process.</p>
