(e) * * *
(3) * * *
(i) * * *
(A) * * * Because the determination
as to whether there would be an
extraordinary reduction amount or
tiered extraordinary reduction amount
greater than zero is made without regard
to this paragraph (e)(3)(i), this
determination is made without taking
into account any elections that may be
available, or other events that may
occur, solely by reason of an election
described in this paragraph (e)(3)(i),
such as the application of section
954(b)(4) to a short taxable year created
as a result of the election. * * *

(i) * * *
(8) Extraordinary disposition E&P.
The term extraordinary disposition E&P
has the meaning set forth in paragraph
(c)(3)(i)(C) of this section.
(9) Extraordinary disposition
ownership percentage. The term
extraordinary disposition ownership
percentage has the meaning set forth in
paragraph (c)(3)(i)(B) of this section.

(j) * * *
(10) * * *
(ii) * * * Because the loan from CFC1
to CFC2 and the subsequent distribution
of cash were carried out with a principal
purpose of avoiding the purposes of this
section, appropriate adjustments are
required to be made under the antiabuse rule in paragraph (h) of this
section. * * *

29 CFR Part 2201
Regulations Implementing the
Freedom of Information Act
Occupational Safety and Health
Review Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Occupational Safety and
Health Review Commission (OSHRC) is
amending its regulations implementing
the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
The amendments to the FOIA
regulations concern minor issues that
have arisen since the regulations were
last revised in 2016.
DATES: Effective November 13, 2020.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ron
Bailey, Attorney Advisor, Office of
General Counsel, by telephone at (202)
606–5410 or by email at rbailey@
oshrc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Revisions to Part 2201
OSHRC’s regulations implementing
FOIA, 29 CFR part 2201, were last
revised on December 27, 2016, 81 FR
95035. OSHRC is making several minor
revisions to these regulations.
In 29 CFR 2201.5, OSHRC is revising
the reference to its Privacy Act
regulation—from § 2400.6 to § 2400.4—
based on the re-designation of section
numbers in 29 CFR part 2400, 85 FR
65221.
In 29 CFR 2201.6(a)(1), the regulation
presently states that the 20-day period
for granting or denying a FOIA request
can be tolled under two different
circumstances: ‘‘(1) The agency may toll
the 20-day period once while awaiting
information that it has reasonably
requested from the requester under this
section . . . ; or (2) The agency may toll
the 20-day period as many times as are
necessary to clarify any issue regarding
fee assessment.’’ OSHRC is revising the
word ‘‘or’’ to ‘‘and,’’ because guidance
from the Department of Justice’s Office
of Information Policy (OIP) indicates
that tolling under one circumstance
does not preclude the agency from
subsequently tolling based on the other
circumstance. This guidance, from
November 18, 2008, is available at
https://www.justice.gov/oip/oipguidance.
In 29 CFR 2201.8(e), the third
sentence of that paragraph states: ‘‘In
cases in which a requester has been
notified that actual or estimated fees
amount to more than $25, the request
shall not be considered received and
further work shall not be done on it
