Regulations.gov API v4 (U.S. eRulemaking Program) — the public face of federal rulemaking: dockets (the regulatory file), documents (proposed/final rules, notices, supporting materials), and the public comments submitted on them. Track O&G / environment rules (methane Waste Emissions Charge, offshore leasing, GHG reporting) and harvest stakeholder comments, filtered by agency (EPA, BLM, BOEM, PHMSA, NOAA, FS), keyword, and posted date. The third leg of the compliance trio: pair with the Federal Register ("what just changed") and eCFR (current regulatory text). Works out of the box (public DEMO_KEY); set REGULATIONS_GOV_API_KEY for production volume.
