Paperwork Reduction Act

    The provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 
104-13, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, and its implementing regulations, 5 CFR 
part 1320, do not apply to this final rule because there are no new or 
revised recordkeeping or reporting requirements.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for this rule 
under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553), the provisions 
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply. 
We sent a copy of this final rule to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of 
the Small Business Administration in accordance with 26 U.S.C. 7805(f). 
No comments were received.

Executive Order 12866

    This final rule is not a significant regulatory action as defined 
in Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, this final rule is not subject 
to the analysis required by this Executive Order.

Administrative Procedure Act

    Because this final rule merely makes technical amendments and 
conforming changes to improve the clarity of the regulations, it is 
unnecessary to issue this final rule with notice and public procedure 
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b). Similarly, because of the nature of this final 
rule, good cause is found that it is unnecessary to subject this final 
rule to the effective date limitation of 5 U.S.C. 553(d).
