Semiannual Agenda of Regulations

AGENCY:  Office of the Secretary, Labor.

ACTION:  Semiannual regulatory agenda.

_______________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY:  This document sets forth the Department's semiannual agenda 
of regulations that have been selected for review or development during 
the coming year. The agenda complies with the requirements of both 
Executive Order 12866 and the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The agenda 
lists all regulations that are expected to be under review or 
development between April 2001 and April 2002 as well as those 
completed during the past six months.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  Barbara Bingham, Acting Director for 
the Office of Regulatory Economics, Office of the Assistant Secretary 
for Policy, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., Room 
S-2312, Washington, DC 20210, (202) 693-5959.

Note: Information pertaining to a specific regulation can be obtained 
from the agency contact listed for that particular regulation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  Executive Order 12866 and the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act require the semiannual publication in the Federal 
Register of an agenda of regulations. As permitted by law, the 
Department of Labor is combining the publication of its agendas under 
the Regulatory Flexibility Act and Executive Order 12866.

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act became effective on January 1, 
1981, and applies only to regulations for which a notice of 
proposed rulemaking was issued on or after that date. It requires 
the Department of Labor to publish an agenda, listing all the 
regulations it expects to propose or promulgate that are likely to 
have a ``significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities'' (5 U.S.C. 602).

    Executive Order 12866 became effective September 30, 1993, and, 
in substance, requires the Department of Labor to publish an agenda 
listing all the regulations it expects to have under active 
consideration for promulgation, proposal, or review during the 
coming 1-year period. The focus of all departmental regulatory 
activity will be on the development of effective rules that advance 
the Department's goals and that are understandable and usable to 
the employers and employees in all affected workplaces.

    The Department is committed to carrying out its 
responsibilities under the many statutes and Executive order 
programs it administers. However, in order to allow me and my staff 
to have sufficient opportunity to review the regulatory plans of 
the Department, many of the dates for next action are not specified 
or the nature of next action to be taken is listed as undetermined. 
The regulatory priorities of the Department will be reflected in 
the fall semiannual agenda.

    All interested members of the public are invited and encouraged 
to let departmental officials know how our regulatory efforts can 
be improved, and, of course, to participate in and comment on the 
review or development of the regulations listed on the agenda.

 Elaine L. Chao,

Secretary of Labor.
