[Docket ID: DOD–2017–OS–0026] RIN 0790–AJ67 Defense Investigative Service (DIS) Freedom of Information Act Program AGENCY: This final rule removes DoD’s regulation concerning the Defense Security Service (DSS), formerly the Defense Investigative Service (DIS), Freedom of Information Act program. On February 6, 2018, the DoD published a revised FOIA program rule as a result of the FOIA Improvement Act of 2016. When the DoD FOIA program rule was revised, it included DoD component information and removed the requirement for component supplementary rules. The DoD now has one DoD-level rule for the FOIA program at 32 CFR part 286 that contains all the codified information required for the Department. Therefore, this part can be removed from the CFR.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: It has been determined that publication of this CFR part removal for public comment is impracticable, unnecessary, and contrary to public interest since it is based on removing DoD internal policies and procedures that are publically available on the Department’s website. DSS internal guidance concerning the implementation of the FOIA within DSS will be published in new guidance in the near future (will be available at https://www.dss.mil/foia/).

RIN 0790-AJ68


National Security Agency/Central Security Service (NSA/CSS) 
Freedom of Information Act Program

AGENCY: National Security Agency/Central Security Service, DoD.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This final rule removes DoD's regulation concerning the 
National Security Agency/Central Security Service (NSA/CSS) Freedom of 
Information Act program. On February 6, 2018, the DoD published a 
revised FOIA program rule as a result of the FOIA Improvement Act of 
2016. When the DoD FOIA program rule was revised, it included DoD 
component information and removed the requirement for component 
supplementary rules. The DoD now has one DoD-level rule for the FOIA 
program at 32 CFR part 286 that contains all the codified information 
required for the Department. Therefore, this part can be removed from 
the CFR.

DATES: This rule is effective on April 26, 2018.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Chapman at 301-688-6527.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: It has been determined that publication of 
this CFR part removal for public comment is impracticable, unnecessary, 
and contrary to public interest since it is based on removing DoD 
internal policies and procedures that are publically available on the 
Department's website.
    NSA/CSS internal guidance concerning the implementation of the FOIA 
within NSA/CSS will continue to be published in NSA/CSS Policy 1-5 
(available at https://www.nsa.gov/resources/everyone/foia/assets/files/policy1-5.pdf).
    This rule is one of 14 separate DoD FOIA rules. With the 
finalization of the DoD-level FOIA rule at 32 CFR part 286, the 
Department is eliminating the need for this separate FOIA rule and 
reducing costs to the public as explained in the preamble of the DoD-
level FOIA rule published at 83 FR 5196-5197.
    This rule is not significant under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866, 
``Regulatory Planning and Review,'' therefore, E.O. 13771, ``Reducing 
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs'' does not apply.
