Wave of the Future: e-RulemakingThe age of e-rulemaking is upon us—many agencies now solicit e-mail comments in rulemaking, and many of these comments are uploaded onto agency Web sites for all to see. In 1994 the Office of the Federal Register led the way by making the daily Federal Register and the Code of Federal Regulations available online for free. Agencies followed by making their Web sites increasingly informative and sophisticated. Some agencies now maintain listservs for people to join for announcements of regulatory actions. Even more dramatically, government-wide Internet portals have been established, which allow the public to search for government documents generally and to file comments on a pending rule.
