DoT Withdraws Unnecessary Rulemakings

Not All of Them, Obviously...

The U.S. Department of Transportation, as part of its effort to overhaul and expedite its rulemaking process, today announced the withdrawal or termination of 53 rulemaking actions for which no further regulatory action is planned.

"Rulemaking is one of DoT's most important activities, and I have worked to ensure that the department's rules -- and the process to develop them -- are driven by the results we are trying to achieve," U.S. Secretary of Transportation Norman Y. Mineta said. "The actions we are taking today build on our ongoing effort to complete all rulemakings in a timely manner."

Ignore it long enough, and it may go away.

At the direction of Secretary Mineta, the department reviewed the status of all DoT rulemakings.  The review identified numerous proceedings listed in DoT's Regulatory Agenda for which it was clear no further action was intended. Many of these proceedings had been pending for years without action. The withdrawn or terminated rulemakings include notices of proposed rulemaking, advance notices of proposed rulemaking, and one interim final rule, and involve proceedings within most of DoT's operating administrations as well as the Office of the Secretary.

Take a look at the list yourself, at the link below. It includes some interesting titles, including, "Objects affecting navigable airspace," "Improved water survival equipment," "Modification of the dimensions of the Grand Canyon National Park special flight rules area and flight free zones," and about a dozen others.
