Extracted From Nuclear Weapons’’ (E.O.
13617). In E.O. 13617, the President
found that the risk of nuclear
proliferation created by the
accumulation of a large volume of
weapons-usable fissile material in the
territory of the Russian Federation
constituted an unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national
security and foreign policy of the United
States, and declared a new national
emergency to deal with that threat. The
President issued E.O. 13617 to continue
to protect the same property and
interests in property that had been
blocked pursuant to the national
emergency declared in E.O. 13159.
On May 26, 2015, the President issued
Executive Order 13695, ‘‘Termination of
Emergency With Respect to the Risk of
Nuclear Proliferation Created by the
Accumulation of a Large Volume of
Weapons-Usable Fissile Material in the
Territory of the Russian Federation’’
(E.O. 13695). In E.O. 13695, the
President found that the situation that
gave rise to the declaration of a national
emergency in E.O. 13617 had been
significantly altered by the successful
implementation of the HEU Agreements.
As a result, he terminated the national
emergency declared in E.O. 13617 and
revoked that order, noting that, pursuant
to section 202 of the NEA (50 U.S.C.
1622), termination of the national
emergency shall not affect any action
taken or proceeding pending that was
not fully concluded or determined as of
the date of E.O. 13695, any action or
proceeding based on any act committed
prior to such date, or any rights or
duties that matured or penalties that
were incurred prior to such date.
Accordingly, OFAC is removing the
Regulations from the Code of Federal
Regulations. Removal of this part does
not affect ongoing enforcement
proceedings or prevent the initiation of
enforcement proceedings with respect to
violations of the Regulations or of E.O.
13617 when they were in effect.
Public Participation
Because the Regulations involve a
foreign affairs function, the provisions
of Executive Order 12866 and the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553) requiring notice of proposed
rulemaking, opportunity for public
participation, and delay in effective date
are inapplicable. Because no notice of
proposed rulemaking is required for this
rule, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601–612) does not apply.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does
not apply because this rule does not
impose information collection

to better coordinate law enforcement
work and personnel both within the

other Federal, State, and local law
enforcement officials. The Department
of the Army is making minor
administrative changes based on the

Ms.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May
19, 2015, the Department of the Army
published an interim rule in the Federal
Register (80 FR 28545), as 32 CFR part
635, to amend its regulation concerning
law enforcement reporting for a number
of statutory requirements to better
coordinate law enforcement work and
personnel both within the Department
of the Army, across DoD, and with other
Federal, State, and local law
enforcement officials.
The interim rule met law enforcement
reporting requirements for selected
criminal and national security incidents
and provides law enforcement agencies,
such as the Department of Homeland
Security and Transportation Security
Administration, with the most current
information available. It also provided
the Army chain of command with
timely criminal information to respond
to queries from the Department of
Defense, the news media, and others.
The rule established policies and
procedures for offense and seriousincident reporting with the Army; for
reporting to DoD and the Department of
Justice, as appropriate; and for
participating in the Federal Bureau of
Investigation’s National Crime
Information Center, the Department of
Justice’s Criminal Justice Information
System, the National Law Enforcement
Telecommunications System, and State
criminal justice systems. It also updated
various reporting requirements
described in various Federal statutes.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
I. Public Comments
The publication of this rule finalizes
the interim final rule published on May
19, 2015, and will ensure the Army is

Department of Defense and Federal
requirements. No comments were
received on the interim rule; however,
the Department of the Army is making
minor administrative changes based on
the name change of a form and reporting
system mentioned in the rule.
II. Cost and Benefits
This rule will not have a monetary
effect upon the public. This rule
facilitates information sharing between
authorized agencies to enhance
protection of personnel and resources
critical to DoD mission assurance.
III. Retrospective Review
The revisions to this rule will be
reported in future status updates as part
of DoD’s retrospective plan under
Executive Order 13563 completed in
August 2011. DoD’s full plan can be
