AGENCY: Department of the Army, DOD.
ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of the Army deleted an exempt Privacy Act

deletes the corresponding exemption rule from 32 CFR part 505.
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 16, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Janice Thornton at (703) 806-4390 
or DSN 656-4390.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
Executive Order 12866.  It has been determined that this Privacy Act 
rule for the Department of Defense does not constitute `significant 
regulatory action'. Analysis of the rule indicates that it does not 
have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more; does not 
create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action 
taken or planned by another agency; does not materially alter the 
budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs 
or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof; does not raise 
novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the 
President's priorities, or the principles set forth in Executive Order 
12866.
Regulatory Flexibility Act. It has been determined that this Privacy 
Act rule for the Department of Defense does not have significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities because it is 
concerned only with the administration of Privacy Act systems of 
records within the Department of Defense.
Paperwork Reduction Act. It has been determined that this Privacy Act 
rule for the Department of Defense imposes no information requirements 
beyond the Department of Defense and that the information collected 
within the Department of Defense is necessary and consistent with 5 
U.S.C. 552a, known as the Privacy Act, and 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35.
