AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda.

SUMMARY: NASA is publishing its 2017 regulatory agenda pursuant to Executive Order 12866 "Regulatory Planning and Review," 58 FR 51735 (1993), with particular adherence to EO 13771, "Reducing Regulation and Controlling Costs," 82 FR 9339 (2017), EO 13777, "Enforcing the Regulatory Reform Agenda," 82 FR 12285, and the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. sections 601 to 612. The purpose of publishing this agenda is to give notice of regulatory activity being undertaken by NASA in order to provide the public an opportunity to participate in the rulemaking process.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Please direct all general comments and inquiries to Cheryl E. Parker, (202) 358-0252 or Office Mission Support Directorate, NASA Headquarters, Washington, DC 20546. For comments on specific regulatory actions, please contact the person identified as the point of contact for that action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The information provided in the Unified Agenda (Agenda) previews the rulemaking activities that the Agency expects to undertake in the immediate future. The Agenda focuses primarily on those actions expected to result in publication of Advanced Notices of Proposed Rulemaking, Notices of Proposed Rulemaking, or Final Rules within the next 12 months.

NASA is not a major regulatory agency outside of its work as a member of the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council and does not have regulatory actions that are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

A fully searchable e-Agenda is available for viewing in its entirety at www.reginfo.gov. Agenda information is also available at www.regulations.gov, the government-wide website for submission of comments on proposed regulations. Our fall 2017 agenda follows.
