Dear Friend of Small Business:
Small business owners, community leaders and representatives of trade 
associations concerned about excessive enforcement of federal rules can 
voice their complaints at a U.S. Small Business Administration Regulatory 
Fairness Board Hearing in Boston on July 14, 2006 from 8:30 a.m. to noon at 
the O’Neill Federal Building Auditorium, 10 Causeway Street, Boston, 
MA  02222.

SBA National Ombudsman Nicholas Owen, members of SBA’s Region I Regulatory 
Fairness Board, and representatives of federal regulatory agencies will 
hear comments and complaints about regulatory enforcement and compliance.

One of the biggest concerns small business owners face is unfair 
enforcement of federal regulations.  This forum offers small business 
owners a chance to express their concerns about federal compliance 
practices in New England.

Comments and complaints presented during the hearing will be directed to 
the appropriate federal regulatory agency.  This information will also be 
shared with federal officials in the Ombudsman’s annual report to Congress, 
and with managers of federal regulatory agencies to assist them with their 
enforcement actions.

The Boston hearing is open to the public. Those wishing to testify should 
contact Joan Trudell at 617-565-5572 or by email at 
<mailto:joan.trudell at sba.gov>joan.trudell at sba.gov before the hearing.

Comments and concerns about federal enforcement actions can be addressed 
directly to SBA’s Office of the National Ombudsman at 1-888-734-3247 
(REGFAIR).  For more information about the national ombudsman and this 
hearing, you may visit the National Ombudsman’s Web site at

Very truly yours,



Maurice L. Dubé
Massachusetts District Director
