AGENCY:

Department of the Air Force, DoD.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

This final rule removes the Department of the Air Force's regulation concerning the delivery of military personnel to U.S. civilian authorities for criminal prosecution. The part prescribes internal Air Force procedures and command responsibilities and is unnecessary.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Major Andrea M. Hunwick at 240-612-4829.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

It has been determined that seeking public comment on the removal of this CFR part is impracticable, unnecessary, and contrary to public interest since it is based on removing publicly available internal Air Force policies and procedures.

The Air Force policy is available on the Air Force's online publication site ( http://www.e-publishing.af.mil/ ). The pertinent internal Air Force instruction is currently numbered (AFI) 51-1001, but it is in the process of being renumbered and republished as AFI 51-205.

This rule is not significant under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866, “Regulatory Planning and Review,” therefore, E.O. 13771, “Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs” does not apply.
