    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    Background

    As a part of its continuing efforts to reorganize chapter I of title 27 of the Code of Federal Regulations (27 CFR chapter I), the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is removing all of part 275, Importation of Tobacco Products and Cigarette Papers and Tubes, from subchapter M, Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Excise Taxes, and recodifying it as part 41 in subchapter B, Tobacco. This change merely Start Printed Page 52422improves the organization of chapter I of title 27. The table below shows from which section of part 275 the requirements of part 41 are derived.

    In addition, section 1111 of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-296, 116 Stat. 2135) divided the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, Department of the Treasury, into two separate agencies, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in the Department of Justice, and TTB which remains in the Department of the Treasury. This reorganization requires us to amend each of the CFR parts under our jurisdiction to reflect our Bureau's new name and organizational structure. This document makes the appropriate administrative, nonsubstantive changes to the newly redesignated part 41.

    Regulatory Flexibility Act

    Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for this final rule under 5 U.S.C. 553, the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply.

    Executive Order 12866

    This final rule is not a significant regulatory action as defined in Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, this final rule is not subject to the analysis requirement of this Executive Order.

    Inapplicability of Prior Notice and Comment and Delayed Effective Date Requirements

    Because this final rule merely makes organizational and technical or conforming nonsubstantive amendments to improve the layout of the regulations and to reflect the new name and organizational structure of TTB, no notice of proposed rulemaking and public comment period are required under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B). For the same reasons, this final rule is not subject to the delayed effective date requirement of 5 U.S.C. 553(d). Start Printed Page 52423
