AGENCY:
National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
ACTION:
Direct final rule.
SUMMARY:
NARA is revising these regulations to make administrative changes, such as updating office names and organizational codes, updating URLs, and updating links to NARA's records management web pages, to reflect organizational and contact changes, and revising the incorporation by reference language to make it consistent with newer regulations and to reflect contact changes.
DATES:
This rule is effective on April 30, 2018 without further notice, unless we receive adverse written comment that warrants revision by April 19, 2018. If we receive such comments, we will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule in the Federal Register.
ADDRESSES:
You may submit comments, identified by RIN 3095-AB95, by email at regulation_comments@nara.gov, or by mail to the External Policy Program Manager; Strategy Division (MP), Suite 4100; National Archives and Records Administration; 8601 Adelphi Road; College Park, MD 20740-6001.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Kimberly Keravuori, by email at regulation_comments@nara.gov, or by telephone at 301-837-3151.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulatory Review Information
This rule is not a significant regulatory action for the purposes of E.O. 12866 and a significance determination was requested from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). It is also not a major rule as defined in 5 U.S.C. Chapter 8, Congressional Review of Agency Rulemaking. As a result, this rule is also not subject to deregulatory requirements contained in E.O. 13771. As required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act, we certify that this rule will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities; it simply updates contact, office, and agency online site information to reflect organizational changes. This rule also does not have any Federalism implications.
This rule is effective upon publication for good cause as permitted by the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3)). NARA believes that a public comment period is unnecessary as this rule merely makes minor administrative updates to reflect NARA organizational changes.
