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.

Andrew Nielson, Director of the Government-wide IT Accessibility Program, Office of Government-wide Policy, GSA, at telephone 202-330-3036 or via email to andrew.nielson@gsa.gov for clarification of content.
GSA's Office of Governmentwide Policy (OGP) is in the process of developing an application to facilitate and provide a centralized repository of Accessibility Conformance Reports (ACRs) for information and communication technology (ICT) products.
Our ACR Repository is also in response to a requirement from OMB in M-24-08 to “explore options for establishing a standardized accessibility conformance reporting process for government procurement of ICT, which should include a central repository of vendor accessibility conformance reports.”
Federal agencies often require submission of ACRs as part of quotes/bids in response to procurement solicitations. We intend to encourage product vendors to list/upload their ACRs into the repository to make it easier and more efficient for Federal employees involved in the acquisition and implementation of ICT and interested members of the public to locate ACRs when considering accessibility in the procurement process (as required by Section 508 and in the Federal Acquisition Regulation).
There is no obligation for product owners to submit ACRs for any product. The total number of annual responses would be at the product owner's discretion.
Vendor Admin Respondents: 2500.
Vendor User Respondents: 1500.
Hours per Vendor Profile Creation: 10 mins.
Hours per Vendor User Creation: 3 mins.
ACRs per Vendor Account: 2.
Total ACRs Uploaded: 5000.
Hours per ACR Upload: 5 mins.
Total Burden Hours: 907 hours.
Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this collection of information is necessary, whether it will have practical utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Obtaining Copies Of Proposals: Requesters may obtain a watermarked “DRAFT” copy of the supporting statement via the Federal eRulemaking portal at regulations.gov by searching for Docket ID “GSA-GSA-2026-0232.” Select the document titled “Supporting Statement: 3090-XXXX, Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) Repository—DRAFT” located under Supporting and Related Material.”
