SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Administrative Conference of the United 
States makes recommendations to federal agencies, the President, 
Congress, and the Judicial Conference of the United States regarding 
the improvement of administrative procedures (5 U.S.C. 594). The 
membership of the Conference, when meeting in plenary session, 
constitutes the Assembly of the Conference (5 U.S.C. 595).
    Agenda: The Assembly will discuss and consider two proposed 
recommendations as described below:
    Promoting Accuracy and Transparency in the Unified Agenda. This 
recommendation offers suggestions for improving the accuracy and 
transparency of the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and 
Deregulatory Actions. Among other things, it urges agencies to consider 
providing relevant updates between Agenda reporting periods, offers 
recommendations for ensuring that Agenda entries are properly 
categorized by projected issuance date and status, and encourages 
agencies to provide notice when entries are removed from the Agenda.
    Issue Exhaustion in Preenforcement Judicial Review of 
Administrative Rulemaking. This recommendation examines judicial 
application of an issue exhaustion requirement in preenforcement review 
of administrative rulemaking. It urges courts to recognize that issue 
exhaustion principles developed in the context of adversarial agency 
adjudications may not always apply in the context of preenforcement 
review of rulemaking, but also recognizes that courts generally should 
not resolve issues litigants did not raise during the administrative 
rulemaking proceeding. It also offers guidance to the judiciary and 
agencies regarding when it may be appropriate to make exceptions.
    Additional information about the proposed recommendations and the 
order of the agenda, as well as other materials related to the meeting,
