Abstract

Interested members of the public may request a meeting with the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) to present their views about a regulatory action that is under OIRA review. These meetings, known as E.O. 12866 meetings, serve as listening sessions for OIRA officials and representatives from the agency or agencies taking the regulatory action. To assist members of the public seeking to request an E.O. 12866 meeting, OIRA has modified its website and posted an instructional video and a step-by-step guide to requesting a meeting, in English and Spanish, on its website. Moreover, to encourage participation by those who have not historically requested E.O. 12866 meetings, including those from underserved communities, OIRA will offer periodic and accessible trainings on effective participation in E.O. 12866 meetings. OIRA has recently held two training sessions on E.O. 12866 meeting participation. To assist Spanish-speaking members of the public who may wish to request an E.O. 12866 meeting in the future, OIRA will hold a training session in Spanish.

SUMMARY: Interested members of the public may request a meeting with 
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) to present 
their views about a regulatory action that is under OIRA review. These 
meetings, known as E.O. 12866 meetings, serve as listening sessions for 
OIRA officials and representatives from the agency or agencies taking 
the regulatory action. To assist members of the public seeking to 
request an E.O. 12866 meeting, OIRA has modified its website and posted 
an instructional video and a step-by-step guide to requesting a 
meeting, in English and Spanish, on its website. Moreover, to encourage 
participation by those who have not historically requested E.O. 12866 
meetings, including those from underserved communities, OIRA will offer 
periodic and accessible trainings on effective participation in E.O. 
12866 meetings. OIRA has recently held two training sessions on E.O. 
12866 meeting participation. To assist Spanish-speaking members of the 
public who may wish to request an E.O. 12866 meeting in the future, 
OIRA will hold a training session in Spanish.

DATES: The training session will be held on August 14, 2024, at 3 to 
3:45 p.m., Eastern Time.

ADDRESSES: Information to access the virtual training sessions will be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Executive Order 12866 establishes and 
governs the process under which OIRA reviews agencies' significant 
regulatory actions. E.O. 12866 provides that members of the public may 
meet with OIRA during OIRA's review of draft proposed and final rules. 
These meetings, known as E.O. 12866 meetings, offer an opportunity for 
members of the public to present their views on regulatory actions 
under review. OIRA invites representatives from the agency or agencies 
taking the regulatory action to these meetings, though participation 
may be limited by scheduling or other considerations. E.O. 12866 
meetings serve as listening sessions for OIRA and agency 
representatives, and both the identity of meeting attendees and any 
written materials provided by the meeting requestors are disclosed on 
OIRA's website.
    In an effort to facilitate meeting requests, OIRA has modified its 
website to simplify the request form and to provide several avenues 
through which outside parties can request meetings.\1\ In addition, 
OIRA has provided detailed written step-by-step instructions in English 
and Spanish,\2\ as well as a video (also translated into Spanish),\3\ 
on its website, <a href="http://RegInfo.gov">RegInfo.gov</a>, on how to schedule a meeting. To 
facilitate broader participation in E.O. 12866 meetings, including by 
requestors who have not historically requested such meetings or face 
challenges in traveling to Washington, DC, OIRA holds E.O. 12866 
meetings virtually, primarily as teleconferences.

    To encourage participation by members of the public who have not 
historically requested E.O. 12866 meetings, including members of 
underserved communities, OIRA will offer periodic and accessible 
trainings on effective participation in E.O. 12866 meetings. OIRA 
recently held two training sessions. To assist Spanish-speaking members 
of the public, OIRA will hold a training session in Spanish on August 
14, 2024, at 3 to 3:45 p.m., Eastern Time. The training session will be 
conducted entirely in Spanish, and will include a question-and-answer 
period. At the training sessions OIRA will describe (1) what an E.O. 
12866 meeting is; (2) how members of the public may request and 
schedule a meeting; (3) the format of E.O. 12866 meetings; (4) what 
type of information or input is most helpful to receive during an E.O. 
12866 meeting; and (5) what makes for an effective presentation during 
an E.O. 12866 meeting.
