Notice of Training Session: Effective Participation in Executive Order 12866 Meetings With the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (in Spanish)

Issuing agencies

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.
