Non-Compete Clause Rule; Extension

Federal Trade Commission.
Notice of proposed rulemaking;
extension of public comment period.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Federal Trade
Commission (‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’)
is extending the deadline for filing
comments on its notice of proposed
rulemaking (‘‘NPRM’’) regarding the
Non-Compete Clause Rule.
DATES: For the NPRM published January
19, 2023 (88 FR 3482), the comment
deadline is extended from March 20,
2023, to April 19, 2023.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Karuna Patel (202–326–2510), kpatel1@

341–8605), dfisher@ftc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Comment Period Extension
On January 5, 2023, the Commission
announced and made public its notice
of proposed rulemaking regarding the
Non-Compete Rule, including its
request for public comment on all
aspects of the proposed rule. The NPRM
was subsequently published in the
Federal Register, with March 20, 2023,
established as the deadline for the
submission of comments. See 88 FR
3482 (January 19, 2023).
Interested parties have requested an
extension of the public comment period
to give them additional time to respond
to the NPRM’s request for comment,
while others oppose such an extension
and any potential delay. While the
Commission believes that the current
60-day period—which is 74 days after
public release of the notice of proposed
rulemaking—is sufficient for meaningful
comment and public participation, the
Commission agrees to allow the public
additional time to prepare and file
comments. The Commission has
therefore extended the comment period
to April 19, 2023, to provide
commenters a total of 104 days from the
public release of the NPRM on January
5, 2023. This is a 30-day extension of
PO 00000
Frm 00011
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
20441
the 60-day comment period from
publication in the Federal Register on
January 19, 2023. Additionally, the
Commission requests public comment
on a study, authored in part by a
Commission economist, on the value
that firms attach to enforceability of
noncompete agreements. See Hiraiwa,
Lipsitz, Starr, Do firms value court
enforceability of noncompete
agreements? A revealed preference
approach, (February 20, 2023) available
at SSRN: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/
papers.cfm?abstract_id=4364674.
II. Request for Comment
You can file a comment online or on
paper. For the Commission to consider
your comment, we must receive it on or
before April 19, 2023. Write ‘‘NonCompete Clause Rulemaking, Matter No.
P201200’’ on your comment. Your
comment—including your name and
your state—will be placed on the public
record of this proceeding, including the
https://www.regulations.gov website.
Because of the agency’s heightened
security screening, postal mail
addressed to the Commission will be
subject to delay. We strongly encourage
you to submit your comments online
through the https://www.regulations.gov
website. To ensure the Commission
considers your online comment, please
follow the instructions on the webbased form.
If you file your comment on paper,
write ‘‘Non-Compete Clause
Rulemaking, Matter No. P201200’’ on
your comment and on the envelope, and
mail your comment to the following
address: Federal Trade Commission,
Office of the Secretary, 600
Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Suite CC–
5610 (Annex C), Washington, DC 20580.
Because your comment will be placed
on the publicly accessible website at
https://www.regulations.gov, you are
solely responsible for making sure your
comment does not include any sensitive
or confidential information. In
particular, your comment should not
include any sensitive personal
information, such as your or anyone
else’s Social Security number; date of
birth; driver’s license number or other
state identification number, or foreign
country equivalent; passport number;
financial account number; or credit or
debit card number. You are also solely
responsible for making sure your
comment does not include any sensitive
health information, such as medical
records or other individually
identifiable health information. In
addition, your comment should not
include any ‘‘trade secret or any
commercial or financial information
which . . . is privileged or

46(f) and 16 CFR 4.10(a)(2)—including,
in particular, competitively sensitive
information such as costs, sales
statistics, inventories, formulas,
patterns, devices, manufacturing
processes, or customer names.
Comments containing material for
which confidential treatment is
requested must be filed in paper form,
must be clearly labeled ‘‘Confidential,’’
and must comply with 16 CFR 4.9(c). In
particular, the written request for
confidential treatment that accompanies
the comment must include the factual
and legal basis for the request and must
identify the specific portions of the
comment to be withheld from the public
record. Your comment will be kept
confidential only if the General Counsel
grants your request in accordance with
the law and the public interest. Once
your comment has been posted publicly
at https://www.regulations.gov—as
legally required by 16 CFR 4.9(b)—we
cannot redact or remove your comment,
unless you submit a confidentiality
request that meets the requirements for
such treatment under FTC Rule 4.9(c)
and the General Counsel grants that
request.
Visit the Commission’s website,
www.ftc.gov, to read this document and
the news release describing it. The FTC
Act and other laws the Commission
administers permit the collection of
public comments to consider and use in
this proceeding as appropriate. The
Commission will consider all timely
and responsive public comments that it
receives on or before April 19, 2023. For

privacy policy, including routine uses
permitted by the Privacy Act, see

AGENCY:
On February 9, 2023, HUD
published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking entitled
‘‘Affirmatively Furthering Fair
Housing’’, proposing to implement the
obligation to affirmatively further the
purposes and policies of the Fair
Housing Act, which is title VIII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1968, with respect to
certain recipients of HUD funds. The
proposed rule provided for a 60-day
comment period, which would have
ended April 10, 2023. HUD has
determined that a 14-day extension of
the comment period, until April 24,
2023, is appropriate. This extension will
allow interested persons additional time
to analyze the proposal and prepare
their comments.
DATES: The comment period for the
proposed rule published on February 9,
2023, at 88 FR 8516, is extended.
Comments should be received on or
before April 24, 2023.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit comments regarding
this proposed rule to the Regulations
Division, Office of General Counsel,
Department of Housing and Urban
Development, 451 7th Street SW, Room
10276, Washington, DC 20410–0500.
Communications must refer to the above
docket number and title. There are two
methods for submitting public
comments. All submissions must refer

public. Comments submitted
electronically through the
www.regulations.gov website can be

interested members of the public.
Commenters should follow the
instructions provided on that site to
submit comments electronically.
Note: To receive consideration as public
comments, comments must be submitted
through one of the two methods specified
above. Again, all submissions must refer to
the docket number and title of the rule.

comments must be scheduled by calling
the Regulations Division at 202–402–

SUMMARY: The Federal Trade Commission (``FTC'' or ``Commission'') is
extending the deadline for filing comments on its notice of proposed
rulemaking (``NPRM'') regarding the Non-Compete Clause Rule.
DATES: For the NPRM published January 19, 2023 (88 FR 3482), the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Comment Period Extension
On January 5, 2023, the Commission announced and made public its
notice of proposed rulemaking regarding the Non-Compete Rule, including
its request for public comment on all aspects of the proposed rule. The
NPRM was subsequently published in the Federal Register, with March 20,
2023, established as the deadline for the submission of comments. See
88 FR 3482 (January 19, 2023).
Interested parties have requested an extension of the public
comment period to give them additional time to respond to the NPRM's
request for comment, while others oppose such an extension and any
potential delay. While the Commission believes that the current 60-day
period--which is 74 days after public release of the notice of proposed
rulemaking--is sufficient for meaningful comment and public
participation, the Commission agrees to allow the public additional
time to prepare and file comments. The Commission has therefore
extended the comment period to April 19, 2023, to provide commenters a
total of 104 days from the public release of the NPRM on January 5,
2023. This is a 30-day extension of the 60-day comment period from
publication in the Federal Register on January 19, 2023. Additionally,
the Commission requests public comment on a study, authored in part by
a Commission economist, on the value that firms attach to
enforceability of noncompete agreements. See Hiraiwa, Lipsitz, Starr,

consider your comment, we must receive it on or before April 19, 2023.
Write ``Non-Compete Clause Rulemaking, Matter No. P201200'' on your
comment. Your comment--including your name and your state--will be

manufacturing processes, or customer names.
Comments containing material for which confidential treatment is
requested must be filed in paper form, must be clearly labeled
``Confidential,'' and must comply with 16 CFR 4.9(c). In particular,
the written request for confidential treatment that accompanies the
comment must include the factual and legal basis for the request and
must identify the specific portions of the comment to be withheld from
the public record. Your comment will be kept confidential only if the
