DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
7 CFR Part 3010
Office of the Chief Financial Officer; Organization and Function
AGENCY: Office of the Chief Financial Officer, USDA.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document removes the Organization and Function regulation
that deals with the internal structure of the Office of Finance and
Management (OFM). Under the reorganization of the Department of
Agriculture, OFM no longer exists. The OFM functions have been assigned
to the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) (60 FR 56392-56465,
revising 7 CFR Part 2).
EFFECTIVE DATE: This final rule is effective October 15, 1996.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Richard Guyer, Director, Fiscal Policy Division, Office of the Chief
Financial Officer, USDA room 3022, South Building, 14th and
Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, DC 20250, (202) 690-0291.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In support of the Department of
Agriculture's regulatory reform initiative, it has been determined that
this regulation is unnecessary. It deals with the internal structure of
an organization, OFM, that was eliminated in the recent reorganization
of USDA. The duties of OFM were delegated to the newly established
OCFO.
Authority: 5 U.S.C. 301, 552
Impact Analysis
This rule relates to internal agency management. Therefore,
pursuant to U.S.C. 553, notice of proposed rulemaking and opportunity
for comment are not required, and this rule may be made effective less
than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. Further, since
this rule relates to internal agency management, it is exempt from the
provisions of Executive Order Nos. 12866 and 12988. This action also is
not a rule as defined by the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601
et seq.) and the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of
1996 (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), and, thus is exempt from the provisions of
those Acts. Finally, this rule does not contain any requirements for
collection of information on financial or property matters within the
scope of the Paperwork Reduction Act (45 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.)
