The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal

The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

Electronic Access and Filing

Background

FTA had initiated a rulemaking titled “Statewide and Nonmetropolitan Planning; Metropolitan Transportation Planning” under Regulation Identifier Number (RIN) 2132-AB45, to update the regulations pertaining to FTA's transportation planning requirements in 23 CFR part 450.

Consistent with President Donald J. Trump's commitment to ending unlawful, unnecessary, and onerous regulations, FTA is reviewing its existing regulations and ongoing regulatory activities for alignment with law and Administration priorities. FTA is withdrawing this rulemaking activity because further rulemaking action does not align with agency needs, priorities, and objectives. FTA continues to consider the best means of addressing some or all the issues surrounding its transportation planning regulations, and the scope of any agency actions FTA concludes may be necessary to address these issues.

In addition, all agencies participate in the semi-annual Unified Agenda, which provides a summary description of the regulatory actions that each agency is considering or reviewing. Agencies' agendas are posted on the public website of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, and portions are published in the Federal Register in the spring and fall of each year. The Unified Agenda is often used as a tool to solicit interest and participation from stakeholders. Withdrawal of this rulemaking will allow FTA to better align its entries on the Department's Unified Agenda with the agency's needs, priorities, and objectives.

Accordingly, for these independently sufficient reasons, FTA is terminating the rulemaking associated with RIN 2132-AB45. By terminating the rulemaking, FTA is indicating that it no longer considers this rulemaking to be pending. Should FTA decide at a future date to initiate the same or similar rulemaking, FTA will issue a new NPRM under a new RIN, subject to the requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 553.

Issued in Washington, DC, under authority delegated in 49 CFR 1.91(c).

Marcus J. Molinaro,

Administrator.
