3.2.3.2: Electronic Docketing
Continue to use electronic docketing for more than rulemaking information. Other Information:
Regulations.gov started in 2007 to improve public access to all documents relating to Federal agency rulemakings and to allow
agencies to maintain totally digital dockets. Regulations.gov was based on a system created by the DOT in 1995. It became
publicly available on the Internet in 1997, and had eliminated the use of paper dockets for the entire DOT by 1998. The DOT
took this electronic docket further by using it for adjudications, data quality requests, and other documentation, in order
to give the public even greater accessibility to DOT records. In 2007, the DOT’s electronic docket migrated to Regulations.gov,
and the DOT continues to use it for more than rulemaking information.
