· If this keeps up, the total tally for 2013 will be 3,261 new final rules.
· Last week, 1,975 new pages were added to the 2013 Federal Register, for a total of 11,554 pages.
· At its current pace, the 2013 Federal Register will run 90,110 pages.
· Rules are called “economically significant” if they have costs of $100 million or more in a given year. One such rule was published last week, for a total of eight so far in 2013.
· The total compliance costs of this year’s economically significant regulations ranges from $2.532 billion to $4.810 billion.
