Print out these instructions. Federal Regulation Web Assignment Administrative agencies have the authority to issue rules and regulations by which they will implement the policies enacted by Congress that are within their jurisdiction. Administrators draft proposed rules and regulations and publish them in the Federal Register.
All interested parties can file written comments on the proposed rules.
After the comment period is over, agencies evaluate the feedback and decide whether to rewrite some of the proposed rules in light of the comments. All regulations of the federal government are published first in the Federal Register. In this exercise you will access a regulation of the Food and Drug Administration in the Federal Register. Go to the MSU Library's home page. This will take you to the same page of the GPO from which you accessed President Bush's Executive Order on Faith-Based Initiatives.
