                Department of the Air Force
                32 CFR Part 881
                [Docket ID: USAF-2019-HQ-0005]
                RIN 0701-AA91
                Determination of Active Military Service and Discharge for
                Civilian or Contractual Groups
                AGENCY: Department of the Air Force, DoD.
                ACTION: Final rule.
                -----------------------------------------------------------------------
                SUMMARY: This final rule removes the Department of the Air Force's
                regulation containing procedures for processing discharge applications
                of civilians or contractors claiming prior active military service with
                the Air Force or a predecessor organization. The content of this part
                is addressed in a DoD-level regulation, and it is unnecessary.
                DATES: This rule is effective on September 30, 2019.
                FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lt Col Matthew Huibregtse, 703-571-
                0827.
                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final rule removes 32 CFR part 881,
                ``Determination of Active Military Service and Discharge for Civilian
                or Contractual Groups,'' which was codified on June 23, 1999 (64 FR
                33400), and never updated. It has been determined that publication of
                this CFR part removal for public comment is impracticable, unnecessary,
                and contrary to public interest since it is based on removing content
                which is covered in the DoD-level regulation at 32 CFR part 47,
                ``Active Duty Service for Civilian or Contractual Groups'' (codified on
                September 29, 1989, at 54 FR 39993). To the extent that internal Air
                Force procedures concerning discharge applications are necessary, they
                will continue to be published in Air Force Instruction 36-2602,
                ``Application For Individual Discharge Of Member Of A Civilian Or
                Contractual Group Determined To Qualify For Active Duty Service,''
                (updated January 12, 2017) which is available at: http://static.e-publishing.af.mil/production/1/af_a1/publication/afi36-2602/afi36-2602.pdf.
                 This rule is not significant under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866,
                ``Regulatory Planning and Review.'' Therefore; E.O. 13771, ``Reducing
                Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs'' does not apply.

                removed.
