NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS ADMINISTRATION
36 CFR Part 1258
RIN 3095-AA71
NARA Reproduction Fee Schedule
AGENCY: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: NARA is revising its schedule of fees for reproduction of
records created by other Federal agencies and transferred to the
custody of the Archivist of the United States; donated historical
materials; Presidential records and Presidential historical materials
transferred to the custody of the Archivist; and records filed with the
Office of the Federal Register. The fees are being changed to reflect
current costs of providing the reproductions. This rule affects members
of the public and Federal agencies who order reproductions from NARA.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 14, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nancy Allard on (301)713-7360.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NARA published a proposed rule on March 31,
1997 (62 FR 15137) and a correction to that document on April 3, 1997
(62 FR 15867). No comments were received during the 60-day comment
period. In the proposed rule, NARA announced its intention to make the
new fees effective on July 1, 1997, and cited that date in the proposed
Sec. 1258.16. An effective date of July 1, 1997, would not provide 30
days advance notice to the public, given the agency's inability to
publish the final rule before June 1, 1997. Therefore, NARA is
modifying the effective date in Sec. 1258.16 to provide the 30 days
advance notice. No other changes have been made in this final rule.
This rule is not a significant regulatory action for purposes of
Executive Order 12866 of September 30, 1993, and has not been reviewed
by the Office of Management and Budget. As required by the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, it is hereby certified that this rule will not have a
significant impact on small entities. This rule is not a major rule for
purposes of Congressional review of regulations under 5 U.S.C. Chapter
8.
