substantive regulatory changes.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
As a part of its continuing efforts to reorganize chapter I of
title 27 of the Code of Federal Regulations (27 CFR chapter I), the
Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is removing all of part
194, Liquor Dealers, from subchapter M, Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other
Excise Taxes, and recodifying it as part 31 in subchapter A, Liquors.
We are also revising the title of new part 31 to read ``Alcohol
Beverage Dealers.'' These changes improve the organization of chapter I
of title 27 and better describe the contents of newly designated part
31. The table below shows from which section of part 194 the
requirements of part 31 are derived.
In addition, section 1111 of the Homeland Security Act of 2002
(Pub. L. 107-296, 116 Stat. 2135) divided the former Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), Department of the Treasury, into two
separate agencies, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives in the Department of Justice, and TTB, which remains in the
Department of the Treasury. This reorganization requires us to amend
each of the CFR parts under our jurisdiction to reflect our Bureau's
new name and organizational structure. This document makes the
appropriate administrative, nonsubstantive changes to the newly
designated part 31.

Regulatory Flexibility Act
Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for this final
rule under 5 U.S.C. 553, the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply.
Executive Order 12866
This final rule is not a significant regulatory action as defined
in Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, this final rule is not subject
to the requirements of this Executive Order.
Inapplicability of Prior Notice and Comment and Delayed Effective Date
Requirements
Because this final rule merely makes organizational and technical
or
[[Page 19882]]
conforming nonsubstantive amendments to improve the layout of the
regulations and to reflect the new name and organizational structure of
TTB, no notice of proposed rulemaking and public comment period are
required under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B). For the same reasons, this final
rule is not subject to the delayed effective date requirement of 5
U.S.C. 553(d).
