| The Regulatory Review Process in Pennsylvania Tips for Commenting
on State & Federal Regulations
The Pennsylvania Bulletin (state)
and the Federal Register (federal) are where all government agencies
must post newly-proposed regulations and changes to existing regulations.
Each proposed regulation will have a date that comments must be submitted
by and an address to submit comments. This is your opportunity to be
heard. It is always important when submitting comments to be as specific
as possible:
- Always try to note the section in the proposal
that you are referring to;
- Whenever possible, try to identify how the
proposal might impact your company;
- Include recommended language changes where
appropriate; and
- It is always acceptable to send a letter
immediately asking the agency to extend the comment deadline if
you feel the proposal is too complex to digest within the official
comment period.
