            Regulations
  WHO:   Sponsored by the Office of the Federal Register.
  WHAT:  Free public briefings (approximately 3 hours) to present:
         1. The regulatory process, with a focus on the Federal 
            Register system and the public's role in the development 
            of regulations.
         2. The relationship between the Federal Register and Code 
            of Federal Regulations.
         3. The important elements of typical Federal Register 
            documents.

  WHY:   To provide the public with access to information necessary to 
            research Federal agency regulations which directly affect
