Dockets

Where to Send Comments for EPA Dockets

Regulations.gov is our preferred method of receiving comments. However, other submission formats are accepted.


Alternate Submission Forms for Regional Dockets

Please note that comments on dockets originating from one of EPA’s regional offices are usually to be directed to that region, not EPA Headquarters in Washington, DC. Mailing instructions for regional dockets will be included in the relevant Federal Register notice.
