SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This edition of the Unified Agenda of
Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions reports on actions planned
by the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Military Departments,
the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and
Sustainment for procurement-related actions, and the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers.
This agenda also identifies rules impacted by the:
a. Regulatory Flexibility Act.
b. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
c. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995.
Generally, rules discussed in this agenda will contain five
sections: (1) pre-rule stage; (2) proposed rule stage; (3) final rule
stage; (4) completed actions; and (5) long-term actions. Where certain
regulatory actions indicate that small entities are affected, the
effect on these entities may not necessarily have significant economic
impact on a substantial number of these entities as defined in the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601(6)).
