DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary

32 CFR Part 165

[Docket ID: DOD-2018-OS-0088]
RIN 0790-AK24


Recoupment of Nonrecurring Costs (NCs) on Sales of U.S. Items

AGENCY: Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), DoD.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This final rule removes the Department of Defense (DoD) 
regulation that paraphrases existing authorities under the Arms Export 
Control Act and describes internal procedures for calculating and 
assessing nonrecurring cost (NC) recoupments, for granting foreign 
government NC waiver requests, for the types of foreign military sales 
agreements covered, and for the offices authorized to waive NC 
recoupment. The corresponding internal procedures will continue to be 
made publicly available online.

DATES: This rule is effective on August 19, 2019.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kellie Allison at 703-614-0410.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This removal supports a recommendation from 
the DoD Regulatory Reform Task Force. This rule was codified on May 24, 
2013 (78 FR 31400), and it was never updated. It has been determined 
that publication of this CFR part removal for public comment is 
unnecessary since it is based on removing DoD internal procedures and 
information which paraphrases law. DoD internal guidance on the 
recoupment of NCs under the Arms Export Control Act, Public Law 90-629, 
as amended, will continue to be published in DoD's Financial Management 
Regulation, Volume 15, Chapter 7 (updated in November 2018), available 
at https://comptroller.defense.gov/Portals/45/documents/fmr/current/15/15_07.pdf.
    This rule is not significant under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866, 
``Regulatory Planning and Review.'' Therefore the requirements of 
Executive Order 13771, ``Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory 
Costs,'' do not apply.
