APPALACHIAN REGIONAL COMMISSION
5 CFR Part 1900
Repeal of Employee Responsibilities and Conduct Regulations for
Appalachian Regional Commission Federal Employees (Federal Staff);
Correction
AGENCY: Appalachian Regional Commission.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Appalachian Regional Commission is correcting one
erroneous citation in its employee responsibilities and conduct
regulation published on December 7, 1995.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This final rule is effective March 26, 1996.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Guy Paul Land, Counsel to the Federal Co-Chairman, Appalachian Regional
Commission, 1666 Connecticut Avenue NW., Washington, D.C. 20235, 202-
884-7660.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Appalachian Regional Commission is
correcting one erroneous citation to the Office of Government Ethics
(OGE) executive branchwide standards of ethical conduct regulation
which appeared in the ARC's revision to 5 CFR Part 1900, published in
the Federal Register of Thursday, December 7, 1995, on page 62702. The
OGE executive branchwide standards of ethical conduct regulation was
erroneously cited as codified at CFR Part 3635. This final rule
corrects that citation to read 5 CFR Part 2635.
Administrative Procedure Act
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C 553(b), the Appalachian Regional Commission
finds good cause exists for waiving the general notice of proposed
rulemaking as to this final rule. The notice is being waived because
this rulemaking relating to ARC Federal employees concerns matters of
agency organization, practice and procedure. Further, it is in the
public interest that the citation be corrected as soon as possible.
Executive Order 12866
In promulgating this final regulation, the Appalachian Regional
Commission has adhered to the regulatory philosophy and the applicable
principles of regulation set forth in section 1 of Executive Order
12866, Regulatory Planning and Review. This final rule has not been
reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget under that Executive
order, since it deals with agency organization, management, and
personnel matters and is not in any event deemed ``significant''
thereunder.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Appalachian Regional Commission has determined under the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) that this regulation
will not have a significant impact on small business entities because
it affects only ARC Federal employees.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The Appalachian Regional Commission has determined that the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35) does not apply because
this regulation does not contain any information collection
requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and
Budget.
List of Subjects in 5 CFR Part 1900

Jesse L. White, Jr.,
Federal Co-Chairman, Appalachian Regional Commission.
