    The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has decided to remove an outdated regulation from the Code of Federal Regulations, which was related to environmental quality improvements in water resource projects. This rule, originally published in 1980, was found to be redundant and focused on internal agency processes that don't impact the public. Its removal is intended to reduce confusion about current policies, particularly those related to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). This move is considered non-significant and not expected to have any financial impact on the public.

    Simple Explanation

    The Army Corps of Engineers had a rule about water and the environment that was really old and didn't need to be followed anymore, so they decided to erase it to make things simpler and clearer.

    The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, part of the Department of Defense, has issued a final rule removing a section from the Code of Federal Regulations that dealt with Boards, Commissions, and Committees. This section was redundant and only involved internal agency operations, which did not impact the public. The removal simplifies guidance related to the Greater Mississippi River Basin Water Management Board, which is covered by an updated regulation available online. The change, which is not significant under federal regulatory planning guidelines, aims to reduce confusion without affecting public responsibilities or costs.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers decided to clean up their rulebook by deleting a rule about their own meetings because it wasn't needed and didn’t affect the public. This makes things less confusing for everyone, but they didn’t explain much about why it was a problem before.
