Tenth Triennial Section 1201 Proceeding, 2027 Cycle

Instructions for Submitting Short-Form Comments

Submit a short-form comment to briefly express general support for or opposition to a renewal petition.

Type your comment directly into the Comment field on the Regulations.gov submission form. Do not upload a file containing the same comment. The Comment field has a 5000-character limit.

Submit a separate comment for each renewal petition you wish to address. You may submit comments for more than one renewal petition.

Instructions for Submitting Long-Form Comments

To submit comments responding to petitions for renewal exemptions, click the "Section 1201 Submission" button below. This will direct you to Regulations.gov, where you will click the "Comment" button to submit comments. Comments responding to petitions for renewal exemptions are not required to use a particular form; they may be single-spaced, but should be in at least 12-point type.

Submit a separate comment for each renewal petition you wish to address. You may submit comments for more than one renewal petition.

Include the name of the submitter and any organization the submitter represents at the top of the document. This information is required in the uploaded document even though you will also enter it in the fields on the submission form.

To upload a comment, click the "Choose files" button under the "Upload file(s)" section of the form. Do not type any information into the Comment field—the system will automatically populate the Comment field with the phrase “See attached file(s).”

Upload comments and all associated documentary evidence as a single file in either a Portable Document File (PDF) format that contains searchable, accessible text (not an image); Microsoft Word; WordPerfect; Rich Text Format (RTF); or ASCII text file format (not a scanned document). The maximum file size is 6 MB.
