RIN 3245-AF64


Agency Titling Procedure Revision; Nomenclature Changes

AGENCY: U.S. Small Business Administration.

ACTION: Notice of correcting amendments.

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

SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is amending its 
regulations to correct omissions and errors in its final rule titled 
Agency Titling Procedure Revision; Nomenclature Changes which appeared 
in the Federal Register on August 30, 2007. In the Agency Titling 
Procedure Revision rule SBA amended its regulations to change the 
titles of certain SBA officials to conform to titles that are commonly 
used across the Federal Government. However, several references to SBA 
titles were inadvertently excluded in the original rule and there were 
some name changes that were not properly made. This notice will correct 
the improperly made changes and include the omitted title changes.

DATES: Effective Dates: These corrections are effective on September 4, 
2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Napoleon Avery, Chief Human Capital 
Officer, Office of Human Capital Management, Office of Management and 
Administration, Small Business Administration, 409 3rd Street, SW., 
Washington, DC 20416. Tel: (202) 205-6780 and e-mail: 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#ee808f9e81828b8f80c08f988b9c97ae9d8c8fc0898198"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="d6b8b7a6b9bab3b7b8f8b7a0b3a4af96a5b4b7f8b1b9a0">[email protected]</span></a>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The SBA published a final rule in the 
Federal Register on August 30, 2007, (72 FR 50037), which amended its 
regulations to reflect the new titles of certain SBA officials. The new 
titles conform SBA's management titles with those commonly used across 
the Federal Government. No changes were made to the responsibilities, 
reporting relationship, or other regulatory duties of the SBA officials 
whose titles are changed.
    However, several SBA titles were inadvertently left unchanged. In 
addition, several title changes were improperly made and need to be 
corrected. This Notice of Correction will incorporate these additional 
title changes and will correct the improperly made changes.

Savings Provision

    This Notice of Correcting Amendment shall constitute notice that 
all references to the old titles cited in SBA rules affected by this 
Notice in any documents, statements, or other communications, in any 
form or media, and whether made before, on, or after the effective date 
of this Notice, shall be deemed to be references to the new titles. Any 
actions undertaken in the name of or on behalf of these SBA officials 
under the old title, whether taken before, on, or after the effective 
date of this Notice, shall be deemed to have been taken in the name of 
the SBA official under the new title.
