SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

    Federal Management Regulation (FMR) part 102-5 was published in the 
Federal Register on September 12, 2000 (65 FR 54966) to establish 
policy regarding home-to-work transportation. Section 102-5.20 defines 
who is not covered by the policy within part 102-5. This final rule 
clarifies who is not covered by the policy within part 102-5. This 
final rule also refers readers to section 102-34.210 which addresses 
when a Government motor vehicle can be used for transportation between 
places of employment and mass transit facilities.

B. Executive Order 12866

    This final rule is excepted from the definition of ``regulation'' 
or ``rule'' under Section 3(d)(3) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory 
Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993 and, therefore, was not 
subject to review under Section 6(b) of that Executive Order.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    This final rule is not required to be published in the Federal 
Register for notice and comment as per the exemption specified in 5 
U.S.C. 553 (a)(2); therefore, the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 
601, et seq., does not apply. However, this final rule is being 
published to provide transparency in the promulgation of Federal 
policies.

D. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the changes to 
the FMR do not impose information collection requirements that require 
the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 
3501, et seq.

E. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act

    This final rule is exempt from Congressional review under 5 U.S.C. 
801 since it relates solely to agency management and personnel.
