                DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
                Department of the Air Force
                32 CFR Part 903
                [Docket ID: USAF-2019-HQ-0007]
                RIN 0701-AA92
                Air Force Academy Preparatory School
                AGENCY: Department of the Air Force, DoD.
                ACTION: Final rule.
                -----------------------------------------------------------------------
                SUMMARY: This final rule removes the regulation concerning how the
                Department of the Air Force accesses individuals into the Air Force
                Academy Preparatory School. This part is outdated, contains internal
                guidance, reiterates statutory law, and is otherwise subject to the
                military function exemption to rulemaking. Candidates to the
                preparatory school are individually
                [[Page 10285]]
                provided with any relevant entrance information and the current policy
                is publically available on the department's website. Therefore, this
                part is unnecessary and can be removed from the CFR.
                DATES: This rule is effective on February 24, 2020.
                FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dawn M.K. Zoldi at 719-333-7279.
                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final rule removes 32 CFR part 903,
                ``Air Force Academy Preparatory School,'' which was originally
                published on March 8, 2007 (72 FR 10436) and most recently updated on
                February 21, 2008 (73 FR 9456). Part 903 part is outdated, contains
                internal guidance, reiterates statutory law, and is otherwise subject
                to the military function exemption to rulemaking. Current policy is
                provided individually to applicants and is contained in Air Force
                Manual 36-2032, Military Recruiting and Accessions, September 27, 2019,
                https://static.e-publishing.af.mil/production/1/af_a1/publication/afman36-2032/afman36-2032.pdf. Accordingly, this part is unnecessary
                and can be removed from the CFR.
                 It has been determined that publication of this CFR part removal
                for public comment is impracticable and contrary to the public interest
                because it is based on removing outdated and unnecessary content. This
                rule is not significant under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866, Sec 3,
                ``Regulatory Planning and Review.'' Therefore; E.O. 13771, ``Reducing
                Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs,'' does not apply.
                List of Subjects in 32 CFR Part 903
                 Military academies, Military personnel.
                PART 903--[REMOVED]
                0
                Accordingly, by the authority of 5 U.S.C. 301, 32 CFR part 903 is
                removed.
