    OFAC: Assistant Director for Licensing, 202–622–2480; Assistant Director for Regulatory Affairs, 202–622–4855; or Assistant Director for Compliance, 202–622–2490.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    Electronic Availability

    This document and additional information concerning OFAC are available on OFAC's website: https://ofac.treasury.gov.

    Background

    In this document, OFAC is updating 20 parts of 31 CFR Chapter V and an Appendix to update the name of an OFAC office and an email address and is updating two parts to remove options for mail submissions. OFAC is also amending four parts to make gender language more inclusive, replacing instances of “his” (when not part of the phrase “his or hers”) with “theirs,” and replacing “he” (when not part of the phrase “he or she”) with “they.” Finally, OFAC is making changes in the authorities citations of 31 CFR part 594 and an Appendix to more specifically reference the relevant statutory authorities in each citation.

    Public Participation

    Because the amendment of the Regulations is a rule of agency procedure and because it involves a foreign affairs function, the provisions of E.O. 12866 of September 30, 1993, “Regulatory Planning and Review” (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), as amended, and the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, opportunity for public participation, and delay in effective date are inapplicable. Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for this rule, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601–612) does not apply.

    Paperwork Reduction Act

    The collections of information related to the regulations being amended in this rule are contained in 31 CFR part 501 (the “Reporting, Procedures and Penalties Regulations”). Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507), those collections of information have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 1505–0164. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of information displays a valid control number.
