32 CFR Part 806b


Air Force Instruction 33-332; Privacy Act of 1974; Implementation

AGENCY: Department of the Air Force.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Department of the Air Force is deleting an exemption rule 
for the system of records F031 DOD A, entitled ``Joint Personnel 
Adjudication System (JPAS)''. The system of records was transferred to 
the Defense Security Service and assigned the identifier V5-05, 
entitled ``Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS)'', which was 
published in the Federal Register on July 1, 2005 (70 FR 38120). The 
exemption rule for the system of records also was transferred to the 
Defense Security Service and incorporated into its existing rules at 32 
CFR 321.13(h) which was published in the Federal Register on July 1, 
2005 (70 FR 38009). The exemption rule for the system of records is 
therefore being deleted.

DATES: Effective August 10, 2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. Novella Hill at (703) 588-7855.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Executive Order 12866, ``Regulatory Planning and Review''

    It has been determined that Privacy Act rules for the Department of 
Defense are not significant rules. The rules do not (1) Have an annual 
effect on the economy of $100 million or more or adversely affect in a 
material way the economy; a sector of the economy; productivity; 
competition; jobs; the environment; public health or safety; or State, 
local, or tribal governments or communities; (2) Create a serious 
inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by 
another Agency; (3) Materially alter the budgetary impact of 
entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs, or the rights and 
obligations of recipients thereof; or (4) Raise novel legal or policy 
issues arising out of legal mandates, the President's priorities, or 
the principles set forth in this Executive order.

Public Law 96-354, ``Regulatory Flexibility Act'' (5 U.S.C. Chapter 6)

    It has been determined that Privacy Act rules for the Department of 
Defense do not have significant economic impact on a substantial number 
of small entities because they are concerned only with the 
administration of Privacy Act systems of records within the Department 
of Defense.

Public Law 96-511, ``Paperwork Reduction Act'' (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35)

    It has been determined that Privacy Act rules for the Department of 
Defense impose 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 of 1974.

Section 202, Public Law 104-4, ``Unfunded Mandates Reform Act''

    It has been determined that Privacy Act rulemaking for the 
Department of Defense does not involve a Federal mandate that may 
result in the expenditure by State, local and tribal governments, in 
the aggregate, or by the private sector, of $100 million or more and 
that such rulemaking will not significantly or uniquely affect small 
governments.

Executive Order 13132, ``Federalism''

    It has been determined that Privacy Act rules for the Department of 
Defense do not have federalism implications. The rules do not have 
substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between 
the National Government and the States, or on the distribution of power 
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
