This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily
Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal
Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official
electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal
Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the
corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the
daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial
informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal
Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status.

The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

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.
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
( printed page 13653)
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.
