ACTION: Final rule; technical amendments. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Department of Labor (DOL) is amending existing regulations to update obsolete non-substantive or nomenclature references in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This action is intended to improve the accuracy of the agency's regulations and does not impose any new regulatory or technical requirements. DOL is also publishing concurrently a separate rule amending existing Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations to update obsolete non-substantive references. EFFECTIVE DATE: April 3, 2006. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sheila McConnell, U.S. Department of Labor, Room S-2312, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington DC 20210, Telephone (202) 693-5959. Supplementary Information: DOL's strategic outcome goal 4.2 measures the agency's success in creating a regulatory structure that promotes compliance flexibility and reduces regulatory burden. As part of this strategic goal, DOL is conducting an ongoing review of its regulations governing labor standards, pensions, health care, and worker safety to ensure that these references in the CFR are accurate, current and reflect recent statutory amendments. Updates to the CFR that relate to statutory amendments include the Wage and Hour Division's Fair Labor Standards Act regulations for the exemptions for agricultural employees employed within the ``area of production'' and by ``country elevators,'' 29 CFR Part 536. Enacted originally as complete exemptions from both minimum wage and overtime, sections of the law were later amended to repeal and replace the original exemptions with an exemption from overtime only. Revisions are therefore being made to delete the regulatory sections that implemented the provisions of law that have since been repealed and to correct citations to current provisions of law. In addition, several sections of regulations of the Wage and Hour Division, entitled ``Petition for amendment of regulations,'' were originally adopted as initial implementing regulations in 1938 and provided for interested persons to petition the Wage and Hour Administrator for desired changes in the regulations. The substance of these sections has been superseded and supplanted by enactment of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(e), and the sections are therefore deleted as unnecessary. Publication of this document constitutes final action on these changes under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). Notice of Proposed Rulemaking is unnecessary since the agency is merely updating non-substantive and nomenclature references. Executive Order 12866 This rule has been drafted and reviewed in accordance with Executive Order 12866, section 1(b), Principles of Regulations. The agency has determined that this rule is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866, section 3(f), Regulatory Planning and Review. Accordingly, there is no requirement for an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that order. Regulatory Flexibility Act Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for this rule under section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601) pertaining to regulatory flexibility do not apply to this rule. See 5 U.S.C. 601(2). Paperwork Reduction Act This final rule is not subject to section 350(h) of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501) since it does not contain any new collection of information requirements. Publication in Final The Department has determined that these amendments need not be published as a proposed rule, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A), since several of these changes are interpretive, procedural in nature, or relate to agency organization. Because this final rule does not make substantive amendments, the Department of Labor has determined that delaying the effective date of the rule is unnecessary, and good cause exists under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) to make this rule effective immediately upon publication in the Federal Register. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 This rule is not classified as a ``rule'' under Chapter 8 of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, because it is a rule pertaining to agency organization, procedure, or practice that does not substantially affect the rights or obligations of non- agency parties.
