Overview of Changes
This rule amends the delegations of
authority in 7 CFR part 2 to reflect
changes to the organizational structure
of the Office of Partnerships and Public
Engagement (OPPE). This includes
removing the delegations of authority by
the Director, OPPE to the Director,
Office of Advocacy and Outreach (OAO)
at section 2.700, as OAO is no longer a
separate entity within OPPE. In
addition, this rule reflects the transfer of
oversight of the 1994 Tribal Scholars
Program from the Director of OPPE
(section 2.38) to the Director of the
Office of Tribal Relations (section 2.39)
and the transfer of oversight of the
Centers for Faith Based and
Neighborhood Partnerships from the
Director of OPPE to the Assistant
Secretary for Congressional Relations
(section 2.23).
This rule also amends the delegations
of authority to reflect the transfer of
responsibility for USDA’s Controlled
Unclassified Information Program from
the Assistant Secretary for
Administration (section 2.24) and the
Executive Director of the Office of
Homeland Security (section 2.95) to the
Chief Information Officer (section 2.32).
See Secretary’s Memorandum 1077–006
(Nov. 2, 2022), available at https://
www.usda.gov/directives/sm-1077-006.
Finally, this rule amends the
delegations to the Under Secretary for
Natural Resources and Environment
(section 2.16) and the Chief of the Forest
Service (section 2.60) to authorize the
Forest Service’s Law Enforcement and
Investigations staff to enforce and
investigate violations of the Lacey Act,
16 U.S.C. 3371–3378, involving timber
and timber products. These delegations
do not affect the existing delegations of
authority under the Lacey Act to the
Under Secretary for Marketing and
Regulatory Programs and the
Administrator of the Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service.
Classification
This rule relates to internal agency
management. Accordingly, pursuant to
5 U.S.C. 553, notice of proposed
rulemaking and opportunity for
comment are not required, and this rule
may be made effective less than 30 days
after publication in the Federal
Register. This rule also is exempt from
the provisions of Executive Orders
12866 and 13771. This action is not a

Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996, 5 U.S.C. 601 et
seq., or the Congressional Review Act, 5
U.S.C. 801 et seq., and thus is exempt
from the provisions of those acts. This
