When the Commission proposes to amend the regulations in this part, it will normally publish a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register.
A notice of proposed rulemaking will include:
The authority for the proposed rule;
The substance and purpose of the proposed rule;
Directions for public participation;
The time and place of any public hearing; and
If a hearing is to be held by other than the Commission, designating of a presiding officer and instructions for the conduct of the hearing.
A notice of proposed rulemaking will be published not less than 15 days before any hearing, unless the Commission for good cause provides otherwise in the notice.
