32 CFR Part 700

[USN-2007-0050]
RIN 0703-AA84


Fraternization and Sexual Harassment

AGENCY: Department of Navy, DoD.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Department of the Navy is amending its rules to remove 
existing sections relating to Fraternization and Sexual Harassment 
among naval personnel. These rules relate solely to internal personnel 
matters. Therefore, it has been determined that these rules are not 
required to be published in the Code of Federal Regulations.

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is effective March 7, 2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: LT Tanya Cruz, JAGC, U.S. Navy, 
Legislation and Regulations Branch, Administrative Law Division, (Code 
13), Office of the Judge Advocate General, Department of the Navy, 1322 
Patterson Ave., SE., Suite 3000, Washington Navy Yard, DC 20374-5066, 
telephone: 703-604-8200.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 14, 1990, the Secretary of the 
Navy issued, revised, and amended the Navy Regulations in accordance 
with 10 U.S.C. Section 6011. In 1993, the Secretary of the Navy amended 
two articles of the Navy Regulations relating to Fraternization and 
Sexual Harassment among naval personnel. The 1993 amendment was not 
reflected in the Federal Register publication of the Navy Regulations, 
64 FR 56061 dated October 15, 1999. The Department of the Navy seeks to 
remove these two sections from the Code of Federal Regulations. In 
accordance with 5 U.S.C. Section 552, it has been determined that these 
rules are not required to be published as they relate solely to 
internal personnel matters. The Navy Regulations articles on 
Fraternization and Sexual Harassment remain in effect and may be 
accessed at the Department of the Navy Directives Web site at http://neds.daps.dla.mil//.
