### Traffic and Conduct on the Grounds of Certain National Institute of Standards and Technology Sites

*Rule* — Commerce Department · National Institute of Standards and Technology

By this rule, NIST amends its regulations governing traffic and conduct at its sites in Gaithersburg, Maryland, and Boulder and Fort Collins, Colorado. This rule amends those regulations by removing excessive and redundant restrictions on personal conduct, updating or removing sections with outdated references or requirements, and broadening an exception regarding the use of service dogs. This action is necessary to ensure that NIST's regulations conform to the scope of the underlying statutory authorities and to reduce regulatory complexity, redundancy, and burden. This action is intended to promote statutory conformity, administrative efficiency, and accessibility for people with disabilities, without imposing any new obligations or costs on the public.

## Ask an assistant instead

Everything on this page is also a tool call. Add `mcp.downstream.sh` as an MCP server — no key, no
account — then paste this:

```
Using the Downstream MCP server at mcp.downstream.sh, call whats_new_since with agency "National Institute of Standards and Technology" since 2026-08-21, then summarise what changed and list every deadline it created.
```

Reaches `whats_new_since`. The response carries its own citations and states what it is missing,
including which dates it has no record for.

Every document linked here is a work of the United States government and in the public domain.
The Federal Register's HTML and XML renderings are unofficial; the PDF on each item is the
official text, and that is the one to cite.

Counts are arithmetic over published fields, dates are printed as filed, and titles are verbatim.
Where we have nothing, this says nothing rather than estimating. The one-sentence agency summaries
are machine-written from those same fields and are labelled where they appear.
