    SUMMARY: The Bureau of Transportation Statistics under delegated 
    authority 49 CFR 1.71(a) amends the Secretary's regulations in order to 
    reflect recent Departmental organizational changes, correct outdated 
    organizational and statutory references, and eliminate obsolete 
    provisions. It also makes editorial changes to correct addresses and 
    make other technical corrections. This rule makes no substantive 
    changes to current regulations.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: This rule is effective on December 26, 1995.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bernie Stankus; Regulations Division, 
    Office of Airline Information, K-25, U.S. Department of Transportation, 
    400 Seventh Street SW., Washington, DC 20590, (202) 366-4387.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    Background and Purpose
    
        Responsibility for the Department's aviation information program 
    was transferred from the Administrator of the Research and Special 
    Programs Administration (RSPA) to the Director of the Bureau of 
    Transportation Statistics (BTS) in May 1995. Before RSPA, the function 
    resided in the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) until the sunset of the 
    latter. The office that has this responsibility is the Office of 
    Airline Information (OAI). Before the transfer, this office was known 
    as the Office of Airline Statistics (OAS) and, prior to a 1990 
    reorganization of RSPA, the Office of Aviation Information Management 
    (OAIM). This rule reflects the transfer by revising those portions of 
    the CFR that still refer to RSPA, CAB, OAS, and OAIM with respect to 
    the aviation information program.
        The rule also makes editorial changes throughout the 14 CFR chapter 
    II to eliminate obsolete provisions, and to correct addresses, 
    terminology, cross-references, and outdated titles of Department 
    organizations and officials. These changes are necessitated in part by 
    the revision and recodification of the Federal Aviation Act within 
    subtitle VII of title 49 of the United States Code (Transportation) by 
    action of Pubic Law 103-272, enacted July 5, 1994. 14 CFR 399.100 is 
    being removed since it is redundant to 14 CFR part 241 section 19-7(d); 
    the policy regarding release of international passenger origin and 
    destination statistics remains unchanged.
    
    Notice and Opportunity for Public Comment Unnecessary
    
        Since this amendment relates to departmental management, 
    organization, procedure, and practice, notice and comment are 
    unnecessary. The amendments made in this document are ministerial, 
    removing obsolete and redundant material and making minor technical and 
    terminology changes. For the same reason, good cause exists for not 
    publishing this rule at least 30 days before its effective date, as is 
    ordinarily required by 5 U.S.C. 553(d). Therefore, this final rule is 
    effective upon publication in the Federal Register.
    
    Regulatory Evaluation
    
        This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) 
    of Executive Order 12866. It has not been reviewed by the Office of 
    Management and Budget under that order. It is not significant under the 
    regulatory policies and procedures of the Department of Transportation 
    (DOT) (44 FR 11040, February 26, 1979). As this rule involves internal 
    agency practices and procedures, it will not impose any costs on the 
    public.
    
    Paperwork Reduction Act
    
        This rule contains no reporting or recordkeeping requirements.
    
    Federalism
    
        The Bureau of Transportation Statistics has analyzed this rule 
    under the principles and criteria in Executive Order 12612 and has 
    determined that this rule does not have sufficient federalism 
    implications to warrant the preparation of a Federalism Assessment.
    
    National Environmental Protection Act
    
        The Bureau of Transportation Statistics has also analyzed the 
    proposed amendments for the purpose of the National Environmental 
    Protection Act. The amendments will not have any impact on the quality 
    of the human environment.
