Regulation Identifier Number (RIN)
editEvery entry appearing in the Unified Agenda or Regulatory Plan is assigned a Regulation Identifier Number (RIN), in accordance with the requirements for the Unified Agenda set forth in section 4 of Executive Order 12866. RINs help the public to identify and follow the progress of each regulatory action or rulemaking proceeding in the Unified Agenda, the Federal Register, and on the Reginfo.gov website. Each regulatory action retains the same RIN throughout the entire rulemaking process.[1]
A RIN consists of a 4-digit agency code plus a 4-character alphanumeric code, assigned sequentially when a rulemaking is first entered into the database, which identifies the individual regulation under development. For example, all RINs for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration have agency code 1218. The RIN for OSHA's rulemaking on hazard communication is 1218-AC20.[1]
The RIN is the unique identifying feature for each entry in the Unified Agenda, which enables a user to access entries of interest discovered through searches. Because the online Unified Agenda is designed principally as a searchable database rather than as a copy of a printed publication, it no longer has a fixed sequential ordering of entries. Therefore, the sequence numbers used in the editions printed in the Federal Register do not appear at all in the new online format. (The regulatory flexibility agendas and The Regulatory Plan printed in the Federal Register beginning in fall 2007 continue to use sequence numbers to identify the location of individual entries, but those numbers do not appear in the online Unified Agenda.)[1]
