SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As set
forth in Executive Order 13891,
Promoting the Rule of Law Through
Improved Agency Guidance Documents,
84 FR 55235 (October 15, 2019)
(‘‘Executive Order 13891’’), Americans
deserve an open and fair regulatory
process that imposes new obligations on
the public only when consistent with
applicable law and after an agency
follows appropriate procedures.
Therefore, it is the policy of the
executive branch, to the extent
consistent with applicable law, to
increase transparency by taking public
input into account when appropriate in
formulating guidance documents, and
making guidance documents readily
available to the public. Unless otherwise
provided in statute, regulation, or
contract/agreement, guidance
documents lack the force and effect of
law.
The term ‘‘guidance documents’’ is
defined as any statement of agency
policy or interpretation concerning a
statute, regulation, or technical matter
10803
within the jurisdiction of the agency
that is intended to have general
applicability and future effect, but
which is not intended to have the force
or effect of law in its own. For SBA,
‘‘guidance documents’’ includes
externally facing Standard Operating
Procedures, Policy Notices, Procedural
Notices, and some miscellaneous
documents, such as certain Program
Guides, and other general guidance.
This Notice is published in
accordance with Executive Order 13891
and OMB Memorandum #M–20–02,
Guidance Implementing Executive
Order 13891, Titled ‘‘Promoting the
Rule of Law Through Improved Agency
Guidance Documents’’ (October 31,
2019), available at https://
www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/
uploads/2019/10/M-20-02-GuidanceMemo.pdf (‘‘OMB Memorandum’’). The
purpose of Executive Order 13891 is to
provide greater transparency to the
public of an agency’s policies and
procedures and provide one convenient
site where all of the agency’s guidance
documents may easily be found. To
accomplish this, Executive Order 13891
requires all Agencies and Departments
to establish or maintain on their website
a single, searchable, indexed database
that contains or links to all guidance
documents in effect from such agency or
component.
For each guidance document
published on SBA’s guidance web page,
we will include the following
