Document Number: 2021-16304

Agency: Department of Defense, Office of the Secretary
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the DoD is modifying and reissuing a current system of records titled ``Identity Synchronization Services (IdSS),'' K890.14. This system of records was originally established by the DISA to populate and maintain persona- based user objects in DoD enterprise-level Domain Controllers, such as the Enterprise Application and Services Forest (EASF) implemented by DISA to provide DoD Enterprise E-Mail, DoD Enterprise Portal Service (DEPS), etc. In addition, the DISA uses the IdSS to populate and maintain persona data elements in DoD Component networks and systems, such as directory services and account provisioning systems. This system of records notice (SORN) is being updated to make various changes, including expanding the individuals covered and adding DoD's standard routine uses.
Semiannual Regulatory Agenda, Spring 2021
Document Number: 2021-15083
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2021-07-30
Agency: Department of Agriculture, Office of the Secretary
This agenda provides summary descriptions of significant and not significant regulations being developed in agencies of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in conformance with Executive Orders (E.O.) 12866, ``Regulatory Planning and Review,'' and 13563, ``Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review.'' The agenda also describes regulations affecting small entities as required by section 602 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, Public Law 96-354. This agenda also identifies regulatory actions that are being reviewed in compliance with section 610(c) of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. We invite public comment on those actions as well as any regulation consistent with Executive Order 13563. USDA has attempted to list all regulations and regulatory reviews pending at the time of publication except for minor and routine or repetitive actions, but some may have been inadvertently missed. There is no legal significance to the omission of an item from this listing. Also, the dates shown for the steps of each action are estimated and are not commitments to act on or by the date shown. USDA's complete regulatory agenda is available online at www.reginfo.gov. Because publication in the Federal Register is mandated for the regulatory flexibility agendas required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 602), USDA's printed agenda entries include only: (1) Rules that are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities; and (2) Rules identified for periodic review under section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

TRICARE: Extended Care Health Option (ECHO) Respite Care
Document Number: 2021-14614
Type: Rule
Date: 2021-07-09
Agency: Department of Defense, Office of the Secretary
The Department of Defense is amending the TRICARE regulation to allow an ECHO program beneficiary to receive, when authorized, up to sixteen (16) hours of respite care per month without a prerequisite to receive other authorized non-respite care during the same month. Currently, Active Duty Family Members who are eligible for the ECHO program can receive a maximum of 16 hours of respite care per month, in any calendar month in which the beneficiary receives other non-respite ECHO benefits (referred to as ``concurrent'' care). As the specific requirement for a concurrent ECHO benefit, which was originally implemented to ensure optimal medical management of the beneficiary's ECHO-qualifying condition, is no longer necessary and may serve as an inappropriate barrier to receipt of respite services for some families, this final rule will eliminate the concurrent ECHO benefit requirement and allow an ECHO beneficiary to receive up to a maximum of 16 hours of respite care per month, regardless of whether another ECHO benefit is received in the same month.
