Treasury.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the
Department of the Treasury (Treasury)
gives notice of an amendment to update
its Privacy Act regulations to add an
exemption from certain provisions of
the Privacy Act for a system of records
related to the Internal Revenue Service
Return Preparer Office.
DATES: Effective date: March 17, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On behalf
of the Internal Revenue Service
Treasury published a system of records
notice at 76 FR 70813, November 15,
2011, establishing a new system of
records entitled ‘‘Treasury/IRS 37.111—
Preparer Tax Identification Number
Records.’’
Treasury also published a proposed
rule at 76 FR 71293, on November 17,
2011, that would amend 31 CFR
1.36(g)(1)(vii).
SUMMARY:
E:\FR\FM\17MRR1.SGM
17MRR1
13765
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 51 / Tuesday, March 17, 2015 / Rules and Regulations
The proposed rule would exempt the
new system of records (Treasury/IRS
37.111) from certain provisions of the
Privacy Act pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
552a(k)(2).
The proposed rule requested that the
public submit comments to the Internal
Revenue Service, Return Preparer
Office, and no comments were received.
Accordingly, Treasury is hereby giving
notice that the system of records
entitled ‘‘Treasury/IRS 37.111—Preparer
Tax Identification Number Records’’ is
exempt from certain provisions of the
Privacy Act, pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
552a(k)(2) as set forth in the proposed
rule.
This final rule is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under Executive
Order 12866.
Pursuant to the requirements of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5
U.S.C. 601–612, it is hereby certified
that this rule will not have significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. This
certification is based on the fact that the
final rule affects individuals and not
small entities. The term ‘‘small entity’’
is defined to have the same meaning as
the terms ‘‘small business,’’ ‘‘small
organization,’’ and ‘‘small governmental
jurisdiction,’’ as defined in the RFA.
As authorized by 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3),
Treasury finds that good cause exists for
dispensing with the 30-day delay in the
effective date of this rule. These
regulations exempt certain investigative
records maintained by Treasury from
notification, access, and amendment of
a record. In order to protect the
confidentiality of such investigatory
records Treasury finds that it is in the
public interest to make these regulations
effective upon publication. In addition,
interested persons have had advance
notice of and an opportunity to
comment on the proposed rule and no
comments were received.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Washington State Department of
Transportation (WSDOT) has requested
that the SR 529 Bridges, north bound
and south bound, across the Snohomish
River and Steamboat Slough remain
closed to vessel traffic to facilitate safe,
uninterrupted roadway passage of
participants of the Everett Marathon.
The SR 529 Bridges over the Snohomish
River at mile 3.6 provides 37 feet of
vertical clearance above mean high
water elevation while in the closed
position. Under normal conditions these
bridges operate in accordance with 33
CFR 117.1059(c), which requires
advance notification of one-hour when
a bridge opening is needed.
The SR 529 Bridges over Steamboat
Slough at mile 1.1 provide 10 feet of
vertical clearance above mean high
water elevation while in the closed
position. Under normal conditions these
bridges operate in accordance with 33
CFR 117.1059(g), which requires
advance notification of four hours when
a bridge opening is needed.
The deviation allows the SR 529
Bridges crossing the Snohomish River
and Steamboat Slough to remain in the
closed-to navigation position, and need

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On behalf of the Internal Revenue Service
Treasury published a system of records notice at 76 FR 70813, November
15, 2011, establishing a new system of records entitled ``Treasury/IRS

Treasury also published a proposed rule at 76 FR 71293, on November

The proposed rule would exempt the new system of records (Treasury/
IRS 37.111) from certain provisions of the Privacy Act pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 552a(k)(2).
The proposed rule requested that the public submit comments to the
Internal Revenue Service, Return Preparer Office, and no comments were
received. Accordingly, Treasury is hereby giving notice that the system
of records entitled ``Treasury/IRS 37.111--Preparer Tax Identification
Number Records'' is exempt from certain provisions of the Privacy Act,
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(2) as set forth in the proposed rule.
This final rule is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601-612, it is hereby certified that this rule will not
have significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities. This certification is based on the fact that the final rule
affects individuals and not small entities. The term ``small entity''
is defined to have the same meaning as the terms ``small business,''
``small organization,'' and ``small governmental jurisdiction,'' as
defined in the RFA.
As authorized by 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), Treasury finds that good cause
