ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY:
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC)is revising its regulations to reflect the renaming of the Office of the Chief Information Officer as the Office of Information Services, the establishment of the Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response, the transfer of the responsibility for the allegations program from the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation to the Office of Enforcement, and other minor changes. These amendments are necessary to inform the public of administrative changes within the NRC. EFFECTIVE DATE: November 16, 2005. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alzonia Shepard, Senior Regulations Specialist, Rules and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative Services, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, Telephone
(301)415-6864, e-mail *aws1@nrc.gov.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 6, 2005, the NRC announced a realignment of functions of the Office of the Executive Director for Operations. In the realignment, the NRC renamed the Office of the Chief Information Officer as the Office of Information Services. On April 7, 2002, the Commission established the Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response (NSIR). These amendments include a description of the duties of NSIR. These amendments also reflect the transfer of the allegations program from the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation to the Office of Enforcement, the replacement of the reference to the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Act with the Congressional Review Act, corrections to the addresses for Regions II and III, as well as other minor changes. Because these amendments constitute minor administrative changes to the regulations concerning agency organization, the notice and comment provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act do not apply under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A). The amendments are effective upon publication in the **Federal Register** . Good cause exists under 5 U.S.C 553(d) to dispense with the usual 30-day delay in the effective date of the final rule, because the amendments are of a minor and administrative nature dealing with changes to certain CFR sections, which do not require action by any person or entity regulated by the NRC. Further, the final rule does not change the substantive responsibilities of any person or entity regulated by the NRC. Environmental Impact: Categorical Exclusion The NRC has determined that this final rule is the type of action described in categorical exclusion 10 CFR 51.22(c)(2). Therefore, neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental assessment has been prepared for this final rule. Paperwork Reduction Act Statement This final rule does not contain information collection requirements and therefore, is not subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). List of Subjects in 10 CFR Part 1 Organization and functions (Government Agencies). For the reasons set forth in the preamble and under the authority of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended; the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended; and 5 U.S.C. 552 and 553, the NRC is adopting the following amendments to 10 CFR Chapter 1.
