SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Authority and Section-by-Section Analysis
The ASC, since its creation under Title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989, as amended (Title XI), has adopted and amended several regulations that appear at 12 CFR part 1102. These regulations, found in subparts A, B, C, D and E of that part, relate to the ASC's implementation of The Privacy Act of 1974, the Freedom of Information Act, and various sections of Title XI.
On October 1, 2018, the ASC is moving its offices to 1325 G Street NW, Suite 500. Part 1102, as adopted, contains references to the ASC's previous addresses at 2000 K Street and 2100 Pennsylvania Avenue, as well as the present address at 1401 H Street NW. The ASC is amending part 1102 by removing references to the K Street address, the Pennsylvania Avenue address and the H Street address, and replacing it with its new G Street address.
II. Administrative Requirements
A. Notice and Comment Requirements Under 5 U.S.C. 553
The ASC, under 12 U.S.C. 553, is required, among other things, to publish in the Federal Register for public notice and comment a general notice of proposed rulemaking, unless, in accordance with paragraph (b)(3)(B), the agency finds "for good cause . . . that notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest." The ASC finds that notice and procedure are unnecessary in connection with these rule amendments because they are nonsubstantive and essentially are nomenclature changes, as that term is defined in the Federal Register Document Drafting Handbook , page 2-33, Revision 7 (May 15, 2018).
List of Subjects in 12 CFR Part 1102
Administrative practice and procedure, Appraisers, Banks, Banking, Freedom of information, Mortgages, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.
