ELECTION ASSISTANCE COMMISSION


Proposed Notice and Comment Policy Version 2.0

AGENCY: U.S. Election Assistance Commission.

ACTION: Notice and request for public comment on Proposed Notice and 
Comment Policy 2.0.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) seeks public 
comment on the Proposed Notice and Comment Policy 2.0. EAC's current 
Notice and Comment Policy is to provide effective notice for a period 
of public comment on all policies being considered for adoption by the 
EAC, that are not subject to notice and comment under any Federal 
statute. The policy requires action within specified time periods to 
permit as much public notice as possible. Because of the firm 
deadlines, the current policy limits EAC's ability to address the rare 
situations that require swift action. The proposed policy amends the 
Notice and Comment policy to provide for unforeseeable circumstances 
that may require deviation from the default timelines indicated.

DATES: Written comments must be submitted on or before 4 p.m. EDT on 
June 1, 2010.
    Comments: Public comments are invited on the information contained 
in the policy. Comments on the proposed policy should be submitted 
electronically to [email protected]. Written comments on the 
proposed policy can also be sent to the U.S. Election Assistance 
Commission, 1201 New York Avenue, NW., Suite 300, Washington, DC 20005, 
ATTN: Proposed Notice and Comment Policy.
    Obtaining a Copy of the Policy: To obtain a free copy of the 
policy: (1) Access the EAC Web site at http://www.eac.gov; (2) write to 
the EAC (including your address and phone number) at U.S. Election 
Assistance Commission, 1201 New York Avenue, NW., Suite 300,
