SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Administrative Conference of the United 
States makes recommendations to federal agencies, the President, 
Congress, and the Judicial Conference of the United States regarding 
the improvement of administrative procedures (5 U.S.C. 594). The 
membership of the Conference, when meeting in plenary session, 
constitutes the Assembly of the Conference (5 U.S.C. 595).
    Agenda: Three proposed recommendations will be considered by the 
Assembly. In addition, there will be updates on past, current, and 
pending Conference initiatives, as well as other business. Summaries of 
the recommendations appear below:
    Agency Investigative Procedures. This proposed recommendation 
provides agencies with best practices to promote accuracy, efficiency, 
and fairness in investigations of specific regulated entities. It 
provides guidance on initiating investigations; exchanging and 
considering evidence and arguments; issuing subpoenas and warrants; and 
deciding whether to terminate an investigation, negotiate with the 
subject of an investigation, or pursue an action in an administrative 
or judicial tribunal.
    Consultation with State, Local, and Tribal Governments in 
Regulatory Policymaking. This proposed recommendation provides agencies 
with best practices for consulting with state, local, and tribal 
governments when they make or implement regulatory policies that have 
federalism or tribal implications. It encourages agencies to develop 
policies on consultation; designate officials responsible for 
overseeing and facilitating consultation; publicize consultation 
opportunities; and adopt procedures to consult effectively with state, 
local, and tribal officials throughout the development and 
implementation of regulatory policies.
    Public Participation in Agency Adjudication. This proposed 
recommendation provides agencies with best practices regarding public 
participation in agency adjudicative proceedings. It provides guidance 
on circumstances in which public participation may be appropriate; 
options for public participation; and methods for facilitating public 
participation effectively.

as any changes or updates to the same, can be found at the 83rd Plenary
