Organizational Charters

AGENCY:

Department of Defense.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

This final rule removes Department of Defense (DoD) Subchapter R concerning organizational charters. The rules in this subchapter address DoD organizational processes for Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs (ASD(RA)), Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS), Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA), and Defense Legal Services Agency (DLSA). It has been determined that there is no need to codify the rules in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) because these documents will not create a mandate applicable to persons outside of the DoD.

DATES:

Effective October 20, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A copy of the current DoD Directives may be obtained from the DoD Directives Division Web site at the following Web addresses: http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/512501p.pdf,, http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/511805p.pdf,, http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/510555p.pdf,, http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/514504p.pdf.

Moreover, it has been determined that publication of these CFR part removals for public comment is impracticable, unnecessary, and contrary to public interest since it is based on removing DoD internal policies and procedures that are publically available on the Department's issuance Web site.
