29 CFR Ch. XII

Semiannual Regulatory Agenda

AGENCY: Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS).

ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda.

_______________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY: This document sets forth the Federal Mediation and 
Conciliation Service's (FMCS) regulatory agenda issued under Executive 
Order 12866 and the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The agenda lists 
regulations that are currently under development or review or that FMCS 
expects to have under development or review during the next 12 months. 
The effect of this agenda is to advise the public of FMCS' current and 
future regulatory activities.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information on the agenda 
in general, contact Jeannette Walters-Marquez, Attorney-Advisor, Office 
of the General Counsel, Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, at 
(202) 606-5444. For information about a specific regulation project 
listed on the agenda, contact the person designated in the agenda for 
that regulation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the President's order on Regulatory 
Planning and Review, Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 
1993), each agency is required to prepare an agenda of all regulations 
under development or review. The Regulatory Flexibility Act, Public Law 
98-354, has a similar agenda requirement (5 U.S.C. 602). Under the law, 
the agenda must list any regulation that is likely to have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

     The Office of Management and Budget has issued guidelines 
prescribing the form and content of the regulatory agenda. Under 
those guidelines, the agenda must list all regulatory activities 
being conducted or reviewed in the next 12 months and provide 
certain specified information on each regulation. All of the items 
on this agenda are current or projected rulemakings.

Dated: September 2, 2005.

 Jeannette Walters-Marquez,

Attorney-Advisor, FMCS.
