## Abstract

The FTC is amending its Rule of Practice 2.51(b), which governs requests to reopen a Commission decision containing an order that has become effective. The amendment clarifies the "satisfactory showing" that a requester must make to support a request that the Commission reopen the proceeding to determine whether the order should be modified on public interest grounds.
