SUMMARY:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with RULES
I. Objective
The objective of this final rule is to
reflect the change of address for two
FCA field office locations. The Freedom
of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552,
requires, in part, that each Federal
agency publish in the Federal Register
for the guidance of the public a
description and the location of its
central and field organizations. As two
of FCA’s field offices recently changed
locations, this final rule amends our
regulation to include the new addresses,
in accordance with the Freedom of
Information Act.
II. Certain Finding
We have determined that the
amendment involves Agency
management and personnel. Therefore,
this amendment does not constitute a
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
rulemaking under the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 551,
553(a)(2). Under this statute of the APA,
the public may participate in the
promulgation of rules that have a
substantial impact on the public. This
amendment to our regulation relates to
Agency management and personnel
only and has no direct impact on the
public and, therefore, does not require
public participation.
Even if this amendment was a
rulemaking under 5 U.S.C. 551,
553(a)(2) of the APA, we have
determined that notice and public
comment are unnecessary and contrary
to the public interest. Under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(A) and (B) of the APA, an agency
may publish regulations in final form
when they involve matters of agency
organization or where the agency for
good cause finds that notice and public
comment are impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest. As discussed above, this
amendment results from recent address
changes due to the relocation of two
field offices. Because the amendments
will provide accurate and current
information on field office addresses to
the public, it would be contrary to the
public interest to delay amending the
regulation.
III. Regulatory Flexibility Act
Pursuant to section 605(b) of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601
et seq.), the FCA hereby certifies that the
final rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. Each of the
banks in the Farm Credit System
(System), considered together with its
affiliated associations, has assets and
annual income in excess of the amounts
that would qualify them as small
entities. Therefore, System institutions
are not ‘‘small entities’’ as defined in the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
