This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.
FederalRegister.gov retrieves relevant information about this document from Regulations.gov to provide users with additional context. This information is not part of the official Federal Register document.

Notice of proposed rulemaking; extension of comment period.
The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC” or “Commission”) is extending the deadline for filing comments on its notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPRM”) concerning its trade regulation rule entitled the “Rule on Unfair or Deceptive Fees.”
For the NPRM published November 9, 2023 (88 FR 77420), the comment deadline is extended from January 8, 2024, to February 7, 2024.
Interested parties may file a comment online or on paper by following the instructions in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of the NPRM published at 88 FR 77420. Write “Unfair or Deceptive Fees NPRM, R207011” on your comment and file your comment online at https://www.regulations.gov. If you prefer to file your comment on paper, please mail your comment to: Federal Trade Commission, Office of the Secretary, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Mail Stop H-144 (Annex J), Washington, DC 20580.

On November 9, 2023 (88 FR 77420), the Commission published in the Federal Register an NPRM with a January 8, 2024, deadline for filing comments. The Commission published the NPRM to solicit comments about the proposed Rule on Unfair or Deceptive Fees and, specifically, on the questions set forth in Section X of the NPRM.
Interested parties have subsequently requested an extension of the public comment period to give them additional time to respond to the NPRM's request for comment. While the original comment period affords the public a meaningful opportunity to provide the Commission with comments regarding its rulemaking proposal, the Commission will extend the period for public comment on its NPRM an additional 30 days to February 7, 2024. ( printed page 39)
The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC” or “Commission”) invites interested parties to submit data, views, and arguments on the proposed Rule on Unfair or Deceptive Fees and, specifically, on the questions set forth in Section X of the NPRM. The comment period will remain open until February 7, 2024.[1] To the extent practicable, all comments will be available on the public record and posted at the docket for this rulemaking at https://www.regulations.gov/docket/FTC-2023-0064. For additional detail regarding comment submission, see the information in the NPRM published at 88 FR 77420.
By direction of the Commission.
Joel Christie,
Acting Secretary.
