Transportation Department publishes 108 notices in November

There were 108 notices published by the Transportation Department in November, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Commercial Space Transportation Advisory Committee; Notice of Public Meeting, was submitted on November 30, 2022.

The Transportation Department published 89 the month before, marking a 21.3 percent increase for the current month.

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.
