                FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION
                11 CFR Part 1
                [Notice 2024-07]
                ZIP Code Correction; Technical Amendment
                AGENCY: Federal Election Commission.
                ACTION: Final rule.
                -----------------------------------------------------------------------
                SUMMARY: The Federal Election Commission is correcting its mailing
                address as set forth in its regulations, to clarify the correct ZIP
                Code to use for certain purposes.
                DATES: This rule effective date is March 20, 2024.
                FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Joanna S. Waldstreicher, Attorney,
                or Mr. Robert M. Knop, Assistant General Counsel, (202) 694-1650 or
                (800) 424-9530.
                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission is amending its regulation at
                11 CFR 1.2, defining ``Commission,'' to clarify that different ZIP
                Codes must be used for the Commission's address for certain purposes.
                For all uses, the Commission's street address is 1050 First Street NE,
                Washington, DC. For purposes of U.S. Postal Service delivery, the
                Commission's ZIP Code is 20463. For purposes of physical location as
                well as for all other deliveries, including by courier or by private
                delivery service such as FedEx or UPS, the Commission's ZIP Code is
                20002.
                 The Commission is promulgating this amendment without advance
                notice or an opportunity for comment because it falls under the ``good
                cause'' exemption of the Administrative Procedure Act. 5 U.S.C.
                553(b)(B). The Commission finds that notice and comment are unnecessary
                here because this amendment is merely technical; it effects no
                substantive changes to any rule. For the same reason, this amendment
                falls within the ``good cause'' exception to the delayed effective date
                provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act and the Congressional
                Review Act. 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), 808(2). Moreover, because this
                amendment is exempt from the notice and comment procedure of the
                Administrative Procedure Act under 5 U.S.C. 553(b), the Commission is
                not required to conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis under 5
                U.S.C. 603 or 604. See 5 U.S.C. 601(2), 604(a). Nor is the Commission
                required to submit this amendment for congressional review under the
                Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended, the Presidential
                Election Campaign Fund Act, as amended, or the Presidential Primary
                Matching Payment Account Act, as amended. See 52 U.S.C. 30111(d)(1),
                (4) (providing for congressional review when Commission
                ``prescribe[s]'' a ``rule of law''); 26 U.S.C. 9009(c)(1), (4),
                9039(c)(1), (4) (same).
                List of Subjects in 11 CFR Part 1
                 Privacy.
                 For the reasons set out in the preamble, the Federal Election
                Commission amends 11 CFR part 1 as follows:
                PART 1--PRIVACY ACT
                0
                1. The authority citation for part 1 continues to read as follows:

                0
                2. Amend Sec. 1.2 by revising the definition for ``Commission'' to
                read as follows:
                Sec. 1.2 Definitions.

                 Commission means the Federal Election Commission, its Commissioners

                Commission's address is 1050 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20463. For
                purposes of physical location as well as for all other deliveries,
                including by courier or by private delivery service such as FedEx or
                UPS, the Commission's address is 1050 First Street NE, Washington, DC
                20002. The Commission's website is www.fec.gov.
