This portion of the “Regulatory Transparency Act of 2015” requires agencies to develop a regulatory flexibility analysis when proposing to amend or develop new regulations. Agencies must consider, where feasible, means of reducing burdens on small businesses and individuals through means, such as establishing less stringent requirements and deadlines, establishing performance standards in lieu of design standards, considering small business and individual exemptions. No regulatory change may be proposed without a flexibility analysis.
