Supplementary Information

Background The President's Executive Order 14219 of February 19, 2025, Ensuring Lawful Governance and Implementing the President's ``Department of Government Efficiency'' Deregulatory Initiative, 90 FR 10583, and subsequent implementing memorandum directed all agency heads to review regulations within their purview and rescind those that are, among other things, unlawful or unnecessary. RD has undertaken such a review and is accordingly rescinding 7 CFR 1930. Regulatory Certifications Executive Orders This document does not meet the criteria for a significant regulatory action as specified by Executive Order (E.O.) 12866. This action also has no federalism or tribal implications and will not impose substantial unreimbursed compliance costs on States, local governments, or Indian tribal governments. Therefore, impact statements are not required under E.O. 13132 or 13175. Environmental Evaluation This rule will have no significant effect on the human environment; therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor impact statement is required. Paperwork Reduction Act This rule does not contain reporting or recordkeeping requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act. Explanation of Provisions The regulations removed are: General, 7 CFR part 1930. Part 1930 of title 7 is already blank. RD is therefore amending this part to clarify these regulations no longer exist. List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 1930 Fair housing, Grant programs-housing and community development, Loan programs-housing and community development, Low and moderate income housing, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Rural areas. PART 1930--[Removed and Reserved] For the reasons stated in the preamble, under the authority of 5 U.S.C. 301 and 7 U.S.C. 1989 Rural Development removes 7 CFR part 1930.
