[Docket ID OPM-2025-0140]
RIN 3206-AO85
Sunset of the Pathways Presidential Management Fellows Program;
Correction
AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION: Correcting amendments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is correcting a final
rule that published in the Federal Register and was effective on August
11, 2025. The document rescinded the regulations on the Pathways
Presidential Management Fellows Program and made other conforming
amendments. The August 11 final rule resulted in an error in the
regulatory text, and this final rule corrects that error.
DATES: This final rule is effective on December 10, 2025.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Katika Floyd by telephone at (202)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rule ``Sunset of the Pathways
Presidential Management Fellows Program'' (90 FR 38604; Aug. 11, 2025),
OPM erred in its amendments to regulatory text at 5 CFR 315.713. The
final rule removed paragraph (a)(3). As a result, paragraph (a)(2) is
now the last paragraph and incorrectly retained the word ``and'', which
needs to be removed and replaced with a ``.'' to close out the
paragraph. Similarly, paragraph (a)(1) needs to have the word ``and''
added as it is now the penultimate subparagraph in paragraph (a). This
final rule corrects those errors.
Procedural Issues and Regulatory Review
A. Administrative Procedure Act
As explained above, this correcting amendment is necessary to
correct an editorial error in the final rule. Therefore, OPM has
determined, pursuant to 553(b)(3)(B), that prior notice and opportunity
for public comment are impractical and unnecessary. Public comment
could not inform this process in any meaningful way. We have further
determined that, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the agency has good cause to
make this correction effective upon publication.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
This correcting amendment will not have a significant economic
effect on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.).
C. Regulatory Review
OIRA has determined this rule is not a significant regulatory
action under E.O. 12866. Therefore, this rule is not an E.O. 14192
regulatory action because it is not significant under E.O. 12866.
D. Federalism
This regulation will not have substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the National Government and the
States, or on distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government. Therefore, in accordance with E.O. 13132
(Aug. 10, 1999), it is determined that this rule does not have
sufficient federalism implications to warrant preparation of a
Federalism Assessment.
E. Civil Justice Reform
This regulation meets the applicable standards set forth in section
3(a) and (b)(2) of E.O. 12988 (Feb. 7, 1996).
F. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
This rulemaking will not result in the expenditure by State, local,
or tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the private sector, of
more than $100 million annually (adjusted annually for inflation with
the base year 1995). Thus, no written assessment of unfunded mandates
is required.
G. Congressional Review Act
OMB's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs has determined
this rule does not satisfy the criteria listed in 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
H. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35)
This regulatory action will not impose any reporting or
recordkeeping requirements under the Paperwork Reduction Act.
