John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Rules, 
Correction

AGENCY: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

ACTION: Correction to 36 CFR part 1290.

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

SUMMARY: This document contains corrections to the final regulation, 
which was published in the Federal Register of June 27, 2000, (65 FR 
39550). The regulations relate to the John F. Kennedy Assassination 
Records Collection. This final rule affects individuals and entities 
seeking access or disclosure of documents relating to the assassination 
of President John F. Kennedy.

EFFECTIVE DATE: Effective on April 12, 2001.

713-7360, ext. 253 or fax number 301-713-7270.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:   

Background

    The Assassination Records Review Board was established by the John 
F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 (106 Stat. 
3443). At the termination of the Review Board on September 30, 1998, 
its records were transferred to the Archivist of the United States. 
NARA continues to maintain and supplement the collection under the 
provisions of the Act. NARA is therefore, the successor in function to 
this defunct independent agency.
    In the final rule NARA transferred those regulations with no 
substantive change to a new 36 CFR part 1290 in subchapter H. 
Currently, the CFR contains incorrect internal references. This 
document corrects those references.

Need for Correction

    As published, the final regulations contain errors that are 
misleading and need to be corrected.
