ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
On April 1, 2019, the
Department of Justice published in the
Federal Register a final rule making
technical changes to remove expired,
obsolete, or unnecessary regulations;
correct specific headings; and reflect
changes to nomenclature in the Bureau
of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and
Explosives regulations related to the
commerce in firearms and ammunition.
That document inadvertently included
an incomplete revision to remove all
words related to an expired regulation.
This final rule corrects the April 2019
amendment by revising the section to
complete the removal of the expired
regulation.

I. Background
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms, and Explosives (ATF)
administers regulations published in
title 27, Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), part 478, concerning commerce
in firearms and ammunition. On April
1, 2019, the Department of Justice (DOJ)
published in the Federal Register a final
rule that made technical amendments in
ATF regulations in the CFR (84 FR
12093). The technical changes made in
this rule included the removal of
expired regulations and regulations that
are no longer applicable; the correction
of section headings for accuracy; and a
change in nomenclature resulting from
the transfer of ATF to the Department of
Justice from the Department of the
Treasury pursuant to the Homeland
Security Act of 2002.
Several sections were removed or
amended because the statute that
formed the basis of those regulations is
no longer in effect. The Public Safety
and Recreational Firearms Act (the Act),
enacted as part of the Violent Crime
Control and Law Enforcement Act of
1994, Pub. L. 103–322, Title XI (1994),
established a 10-year prohibition on the
manufacture, transfer, or possession of
‘‘semiautomatic assault weapons,’’ as
defined in the Act, as well as large
capacity feeding devices. The Act
expired on September 13, 2004, and the
final rule was issued to remove or
amend the regulatory provisions that
had, in whole or in part, implemented
that Act as they are no longer effective.
The April 2019 technical amendments
inadvertently failed to remove all words
related to the expired regulation that
were included in 27 CFR 478.171. This
final rule corrects the changes in the
CFR made by the 2019 technical
amendments by amending § 478.171 to
remove ‘‘and manufactured after
September 13, 1994, ’’ and ‘‘or were’’ in
the last sentence of the paragraph and
to add ‘‘was’’ before ‘‘exported’’ in the
last sentence of the paragraph.
II. Statutory Orders and Executive
Review
A. Executive Orders 12866, 13563, and
13771
This rule has been drafted and
reviewed in accordance with Executive
Orders 12866, ’’ Regulatory Planning
and Review,’’ section 1(b), The Principle
of Regulation; Executive Order 13563,
‘‘Improving Regulation and Regulatory
Review,’’section 1(b), General Principles
PO 00000
Frm 00027
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
60333
of Regulation; and Executive Order
13771, ’’ Reducing Regulation and
Controlling Regulatory Costs.’’
This rule makes technical corrections
to eliminate outdated and incorrect
terminology and improve the clarity of
the regulations, and makes no
substantive changes. The Department
has determined that this final rule is not
a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ as
defined in Executive Order 12866,
section 3(f). Accordingly, this final rule
has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget.
Finally, because this rule is not a
significant regulatory action, it is not
subject to the requirements of Executive
Order 13771. There are no costs
associated with this regulation;
however, it benefits the industry in that
it removes outdated regulations and
provides clarity for the regulated
industry. Because there are no costs
associated with this final rule, there are
no monetized benefits. This rule is
considered a deregulatory action under
Executive Order 13771.
B. Executive Order 13132
This final rule will not have
substantial direct effects on the States,
on the relationship between the Federal
Government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government. Therefore, in
accordance with section 6 of Executive
Order 13132, ‘‘Federalism,’’ the
Attorney General has determined that
this regulation does not have sufficient
federalism implications to warrant the
preparation of a federalism summary
impact statement.
C. Executive Order 12988
This regulation meets the applicable
standards set forth in sections 3(a) and
3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, ‘‘Civil
Justice Reform.’’
D. Administrative Procedure Act
Under the Administrative Procedure
Act (‘‘APA’’), 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), an
agency may, for good cause, find the
usual requirements of prior notice and
comment are impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest. Currently, 27 CFR part 478
contains references to expired
regulations and has obsolete, outdated,
and incorrect terminology that may be
confusing to the public. The rule makes
technical corrections to improve the
clarity and accuracy of the regulations
and makes no substantive changes. For
