Title: ●Revisions to the Office of Hearings and Appeals Procedural Regulations for the DOE Contractor Employee Protection Program  
Abstract:

This action rescinds a regulation that encourages the use of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) for resolving complaints under the DOE Contractor Employee Protection Program. The regulation does not confer any substantive right or obligation on DOE or any party and is not required by statute. If DOE elects to encourage the use of ADR for resolving complaints under the DOE Contractor Employee Protection Program, then DOE can promulgate guidance doing so.
