Public notices: Transportation Department publishes 22 in week ending July 23

There were 22 notices published by the Transportation Department in week ending July 23, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Coastwise Endorsement Eligibility Determination for a Foreign-Built Vessel: DISTRACTION (Motor); Invitation for Public Comments, was submitted on July 22, 2022.

The Transportation Department published four the week before, marking a 450 percent increase.

The Department handles nearly all infrastructure crisscrossing the country. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, said the Department should be privatized to save money, reduce congestion and spur innovation.

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.
