Week ending Dec. 10: 18 notices published by Homeland Security Department

There were 18 notices published by the Homeland Security Department in week ending Dec. 10, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request; FEMA Public Assistance Program Customer Satisfaction Survey, was submitted on December 9, 2022.

The Homeland Security Department published 18 the week before, unchanged.

The Department was built out of more than 20 agencies in 2002. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lower taxes and boosting federal efficiency, argued the Department is burdened with "unneeded bureaucracy" which could be handled by other departments or standalone operations.

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.
