Department of Defense June 30, 2023 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the DoD is providing notice to rescind 26 Privacy Act SORNs. A description of these systems can be found in the table in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section. Additionally, the DoD is issuing a direct final rule, published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, to amend its regulation and remove the Privacy Act exemption rules for 14 SORNs (items (a) through (m), and (s) in the aforementioned table) rescinded in this notice.

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations, DoD, GSA, and NASA invite the public to comment on a revision concerning Prohibition on Contracting with Entities Using Certain Telecommunications and Video Surveillance Services or Equipment. DoD, GSA, and NASA invite comments on: whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of Federal Government acquisitions, including whether the information will have practical utility; the accuracy of the estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. OMB has approved this information collection for use through November 30, 2023. DoD, GSA, and NASA propose that OMB extend its approval for use for three additional years beyond the current expiration date.
