                         Subpart 1.05_Rulemaking

 

Sec. 1.05-40  Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM).



    An SNPRM may be issued if a proposed rule has been substantially 

changed from the original notice of proposed rulemaking. The 

supplemental notice advises the public of the revised proposal and 

provides an opportunity for additional comment. To give the public a 

reasonable opportunity to become reacquainted with a rulemaking, a 

supplemental notice may also be issued if considerable time has elapsed 

since publication of a notice of proposed rulemaking. An SNPRM contains 

the same type of information generally included in an NPRM.
