NARA Regulations; Technical Amendments

AGENCY:

National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

NARA is correcting references to NARA Web sites in its regulations. References to NARA Web sites are currently in our records management regulations and in our public availability and use of records regulations. This final rule will affect Federal agencies and the public.

EFFECTIVE DATE:

June 27, 2002.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Kim Richardson at telephone number 301-837-2902, or fax number 301-837-0319.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

NARA has redesigned its public Web site and its Web site address is changed from www.nara.gov to www.archives.gov. Parts 1228, 1250, and 1254 contain references to the NARA Web site. These references need to be corrected to reflect the new Web site address. This final rule contains technical amendments such as references to NARA Web sites.

This rule is effective upon publication for "good" cause as permitted by the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3)). NARA believes that delaying the effective date for 30 days is unnecessary as this rule represents minor technical amendments. Moreover, as the public benefits immediately being provided with accurate Web site addresses for NARA's public Web site, any delay in the effective date would be contrary to the public interest.

This final rule is not a significant regulatory action for the purposes of Executive Order 12866 and has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget. As required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act, I certify that this final rule will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. This regulation does not have any federalism implications.
