View Rule

The existing regulation authorized and directed implementation of a procedure for certification of the compatibility of a locally constructed flood control element/component with a specific, potential Federal Project then under study. However, the authority for such a certification process ceased to be in effect after December 31, 1977. The final rule action is largely administrative in nature, by repealing this regulation, this action will provide clarity and reduce confusion to the public. The rule does not place a burden on the public, therefore its repeal does not provide a burden reduction or cost savings. This removal supports a recommendation of the DoD Regulatory Reform Task Force.
