Appointing an agency head has very little to do with rule making or reporting which is governed be law. Rules and rule making is up to the agency, congress, and the judicial system. each agency reports once a year date and time aren't governed as far as I know.
The process is done according to law once a year by all Federal agency's... every year, no matter what president or party is sitting.
The rules them selves that are reported are not limited to new rules but also those that are changed and or done away with and of course any new ones.
If you think that this is all done by the President or even under close watch by the President, well you don't understand the government.
