SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The President's Executive Order 14219 of February 19, 2025,
Ensuring Lawful Governance and Implementing the President's
``Department of Government Efficiency'' Deregulatory Initiative, 90 FR
10583, and subsequent implementing memorandum directed all agency heads
to review regulations within their purview and rescind those that are,
among other things, unlawful or unnecessary. CCC has undertaken such a
review and is accordingly rescinding the following provisions from
title 7.
Regulatory Certifications
Executive Orders
This document does not meet the criteria for a significant
regulatory action as specified by Executive Order (E.O.) 12866. This
action also has no federalism or tribal implications and will not
impose substantial unreimbursed compliance costs on States, local
governments, or Indian tribal governments. Therefore, impact statements
are not required under E.O. 13132 or 13175.
Environmental Evaluation
This rule will have no significant effect on the human environment;
therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor impact statement is
required.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This rule does not contain reporting or recordkeeping requirements
subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act.
Explanation of Provisions
The regulations removed are:
Loans, Purchases, and Other Operations (7 CFR Part 1405)
The regulations at 7 CFR 1405.3 were in effect as of April 4, 1996,
and only continued to apply to the 1991 through 1995 crops of
agricultural commodities, to milk produced on or before May 1, 1996,
and to contracts entered prior to any amendments to this chapter after
that date. Therefore, these regulations are obsolete and removed
pursuant to the preamble.
Bioenergy Program (7 CFR Part 1424)
The program established at 7 CFR part 1424 was effective only from
2002 through 2006. Therefore, these regulations are obsolete and
removed pursuant to the preamble.
Asparagus Revenue Market Loss Assistance Payment Program (7 CFR Part
1429)
The regulations at 7 CFR part 1429 were applicable to program
applicants who produced both 2003- and 2007-crop asparagus. There was a
limit on funding availability, which has been reached. As such, they
are obsolete and therefore removed pursuant to the preamble.
