    Technical Amendments to Records Management Regulations
    
    AGENCY: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
    
    ACTION: Final rule; technical amendments.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: NARA is updating organizational titles and addresses in 36 CFR 
    ch. XII, subchapter B, to reflect the current organizations that 
    perform the functions. Since the regulations in 36 CFR ch. XII, 
    subchapter B, were last revised, NARA has reorganized and renamed the 
    offices that have records management responsibilities. Additionally, 
    the offices have been relocated to the Archives II facility in College 
    Park. Updating the titles and addresses will facilitate agency and 
    public correspondence with NARA.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: July 1, 1998.

    extension 226.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule is being issued as a final rule 
    without prior notice of proposed rulemaking because under 5 U.S.C. 553 
    (b)(3)(A) it is exempt from notice-and-comment procedure as it solely 
    concerns matters relating to internal agency organization. NARA finds 
    good cause to issue this rule with an immediate effective date under 5 
    U.S.C. 553(d)(3) because it is a nonsubstantive rule that only updates 
    organizational titles and addresses.
        This rule is not a significant regulatory action for the purposes 
    of Executive Order 12866, and has not been reviewed by OMB. As required 
    by the Regulatory Flexibility Act, it is hereby certified that this 
    rule will not have a significant impact on small entities.
        For the reasons set forth in the preamble, and under the authority 
    of 44 U.S.C. 2104, NARA is amending chapter XII of title 36, Code of 
    Federal Regulations, as follows:
