06-4302. Official Seals and Logos

AGENCY:

National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is modifying its regulations on the use of official NARA seals and logos by the public and other Federal agencies by updating two of the logos that are used. This part applies to the public and other Federal agencies.

DATES:

This rule is effective June 8, 2006.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Kim Richardson at telephone number 301-837-2902 or fax number 301-837-0319.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

NARA published a proposed rule on February 24, 2006, at 71 FR 9503, for a 60-day public comment period. NARA did not receive any comments and therefore, we are not making any changes in this final rule.

This final rule is not a significant regulatory action for the purposes of Executive Order 12866 and has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget. This rule is not a major rule as defined in 5 U.S.C. chapter 8, Congressional Review of Agency Rulemaking. As required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act, I certify that this rule will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. This regulation does not have any federalism implications.
