[Federal Register Volume 65, Number 10 (Friday, January 14, 2000)] [Rules and Regulations] [Pages 2333-2334] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 00-925] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Departmental Offices 31 CFR Part 1 Privacy Act of 1974; Implementation AGENCY: Department of the Treasury. ACTION: Final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury is amending its Privacy Act regulations by revising the list of Treasury Department officials and offices which are subject to this part. In addition, the reference to the United States Savings Bonds Division's Appendix K is being removed by redesignating Appendices K and L. EFFECTIVE DATE: January 14, 2000. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dale Underwood, Disclosure Services, (202) 622-0930. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of the Treasury is updating its list of officials and offices that are subject to this part due to the organizational changes occurring since the list was last published on July 14, 1987. In addition, the United States Savings Bonds Division has been made a part of the Bureau of the Public Debt. Therefore, the United States Savings Bonds Division's Appendix K is being removed from Subpart C which re-designates Appendix L-Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, and Appendix M-Office of Thrift Supervision, of Subpart C as Appendices K and L respectively. These regulations are being published as a final rule because the amendment does not impose any requirements on any member of the public. This amendment is the most efficient means for the Treasury Department to implement its internal requirements for complying with the Privacy Act. Accordingly, pursuant to the administrative procedure provisions in 5 U.S.C. 553, the Department of the Treasury finds good cause that prior notice and other public procedure with respect to this rule are impracticable and unnecessary and finds good cause for making this rule effective on the date of publication in the Federal Register. In accordance with Executive Order 12866, it has been determined that this final rule is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and, therefore, does not require a Regulatory Impact Analysis. Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required, the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply. In accordance with the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Department of the Treasury has determined that this proposed rule will not impose new record-keeping, application, reporting, or other types of information collection requirements.
