32 CFR Part 718
[Docket ID: USN-2018-HQ-0020]
RIN 0703-AB07
Missing Persons Act
AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This final rule removes the DoD regulation on the Missing
Persons Act because its content is internal to DoD. The corresponding
internal guidance document has been updated since this rule was last
amended, and it is publicly available. The rule is outdated and
unnecessary.
DATES: This rule is effective on March 26, 2019.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lieutenant Colonel Theresa Strebel at
703-693-0696.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: It has been determined that publication of
this CFR part removal for public comment is impracticable, unnecessary,
and contrary to public interest since it is removing outdated internal
information. The rule provides guidance to Department of the Navy
entities on implementation and compliance with the Missing Persons Act.
It does not add requirements beyond those established in Title 37
U.S.C. Chapter 10, ``Payments to Missing Persons'' (sections 551-559).
The corresponding internal implementation guidance is
[[Page 11225]]
publicly available in DoD Issuance 2310.05, ``Accounting for Missing
Persons--Boards of Inquiry,'' at https://www.esd.whs.mil/Portals/54/Documents/DD/issuances/dodi/231005p.pdf.
This rule is not significant under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866,
``Regulatory Planning and Review,'' therefore, the requirements of E.O.
13771, ``Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs'' do not
apply.
