SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

    A proposed rule was published in the Federal Register on February 
23, 2009 (74 FR 14510) to solicit comments on a proposed change to FMR 
section 102-36.135 (41 CFR 102-36.135). The language used in that 
section caused confusion with our customers and resulted in 
unnecessarily prolonged removal periods. The proposed revision would 
make it clear that the acquiring agency is responsible for scheduling 
and coordinating the property removal once the acquiring agency 
receives notification from GSA that they have been allocated the 
property. No comments were received.

B. Executive Order 12866

    This final rule is excepted from the definition of ``regulation'' 
or ``rule'' under Section 3(d)(3) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory 
Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993 and, therefore, was not 
subject to review under Section 6(b) of that Executive Order.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    This final rule was not required to be published in the Federal 
Register for comment. Therefore, the Regulatory Flexibility Act does 
not apply. However, a proposed rule was published on February 23, 2009 
in order to elicit comments and to provide transparency in the 
promulgation of federal policies.

D. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the changes to 
the FMR do not impose information collection requirements that require 
the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 
3501, et seq.

E. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act

    This final rule is exempt from Congressional review under 5 U.S.C. 
801 since it relates solely to agency management and personnel.
