Technical Amendments

AGENCY: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco

and Firearms (ATF) Treasury.

ACTION: Final rule, Treasury decision.

SUMMARY: This Treasury decision

changes the titles Regional Regulatory

Administrator and Regional Director

(Compliance) to District Director. All

changes are to provide clarity and

uniformity throughout title 27 Code of

Federal Regulations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: June 13, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Julie

F. Cox, Tax Compliance Branch, 650

Massachusetts Avenue, NW.,

Washington, DC 20226, (202–927–8220).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and

Firearms (ATF) administers regulations

published in chapter I of title 27 Code

of Federal Regulations. Upon reviewing

title 27 for the annual revision, ATF

determined that the regulations in part

200 should be revised to reflect the ATF

field structure reorganization that

established District Directors in place of

the Regional Directors (Compliance)

(formerly Regional Regulatory

Administrators).

These amendments do not make any

substantive changes and are only

intended to improve the clarity of title

27.

Paperwork Reduction Act

The provisions of the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1980, Public Law 96–

511, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, and its

implementing regulations, 5 CFR part

1320, do not apply to this final rule

because there are no recordkeeping or

reporting requirements.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

Because no notice of proposed

rulemaking is required for this rule, the

provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility

Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) does not

apply.

Executive Order 12866

It has been determined that this rule

is not a significant regulatory action

because it will not, (1) Have an annual

effect on the economy of $100 million

or more or adversely affect in a material

way the economy, a sector of the

economy, productivity, competition,

jobs, the environment, public health or

safety, or State, local or tribal

governments or communities; (2) Create

a serious inconsistency or otherwise

interfere with an action taken or

planned by another agency; (3)

Materially alter the budgetary impact of

entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan

programs or the rights and obligations of

recipients thereof; or (4) Raise novel

legal or policy issues arising out of legal

mandates, the President’s priorities, or

the principles set forth in Executive

Order 12866.

Administrative Procedures Act

Because this final rule merely makes

technical amendments and conforming

changes to improve the clarity of the

regulations, it is unnecessary to issue

this final rule with notice and public

procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b).
