Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 93 / Friday, May 13, 2016 / Notices
Secretary, 999 E Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20463. Requestors are
advised that if they submit a request,
electronically or otherwise, to a
different address than designated in this
Policy, the processing of the request
may be delayed. Upon receipt of a
request, the Commission Secretary shall
forward a copy of any request to each
Commissioner, the General Counsel,
and the Staff Director.
Any request for an extension of time
to file will be considered on a case-bycase basis and will only be granted if
good cause is shown, and the
Commission approves the extension
request by four affirmative votes within
five business days of receipt of the
extension request. Within five business
days of notification to the
Commissioners of a request for
consideration of a legal question, if two
or more Commissioners agree that the
Commission should consider the
request, OGC may, at that time, attempt
to resolve the matter informally over the
course of five business days. Within 15
business days from the date upon which
OC and OGC conclude that the matter
cannot be resolved informally, or from
the expiration of the five business day
period, whichever occurs first, OGC will
prepare and circulate a recommendation
in accordance with all applicable
Commission Directives. If the matter is
resolved informally, OC and OGC will
notify the Commission that the matter
has been resolved, and notify the
Requestor in writing of the notification
to the Commission. Informal resolution
of a matter does not prevent the
Requestor from seeking Commission
consideration, in an additional or
subsequent determination, subject to the
requirements of this program.
After the recommendation is
circulated for a Commission vote, in the
event of an objection, the matter shall be
automatically placed on the next
meeting agenda consistent with the
Sunshine Act, 5 U.S.C. 552b(g), and
applicable Commission regulations, 11
CFR part 2. However, if within 60
business days of the filing of a request
for consideration, the Commission has
not resolved the issue or provided
guidance on how to proceed with the
matter by the affirmative vote of four or
more Commissioners, the OC may
proceed with the matter. After the 60
business days has elapsed, any
requestor will be provided a copy of
OGC’s recommendation memorandum
and an accompanying vote certification,
or if no such certification exists, a cover
page stating the disposition of the
memoranda. Confidential information
will be redacted as necessary.

Jkt 238001
After the request review process has
concluded, or a Final Audit Report has
been approved, a copy of the request for
consideration, as well as the
recommendation memorandum and
accompanying vote certification or
disposition memorandum, will be
placed with the Committee’s filings or
audit documents on the Commission’s
Web site within 30 days. These
materials will also be placed on the
Commission’s Web page dedicated to
legal questions considered by the
Commission under this program.
This procedure is not intended to
circumvent or supplant the Advisory
Opinion process provided under 52
U.S.C. 30108 and 11 CFR part 112.
Accordingly, any legal issues that
qualify for consideration under the
Advisory Opinion process are not
appropriate for consideration under this
new procedure. Additionally, this
policy statement does not supersede the
procedures regarding eligibility and
entitlement to public funds set forth in
Commission Directive 24 and 11 CFR
9005.1, 9033.4, 9033.6 or 9033.10.
II. Annual Review
No later than July 1 of each year, the
OC and OGC shall jointly prepare and
distribute to the Commission a written
report containing a summary of the
requests made under the program over
the previous year and a summary of the
Commission’s consideration of those
requests and any action taken thereon.
The annual report shall also include the
Chief Compliance Officer’s and the
General Counsel’s assessment of
whether, and to what extent, the
program has promoted efficiency and
fairness in both the Commission’s report
review process and in the audit process,
as well as their recommendations, if
any, for modifications to the program.
The Commission may terminate or
modify this program through additional
policy statements at any time by an
affirmative vote of four of its members.
On behalf of the Commission.
Dated: May 5, 2016.
Matthew S. Petersen,
Chairman, Federal Election Commission.
