FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

The Commission is adopting an amendment to its FOIA regulations at 17 CFR
200.80a2ii.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background The Freedom of Information Act requires each agency, in accordance with published rules, to make certain records available for public inspection in an electronic format.1 The Commissions regulation at 17 CFR
200.80a2ii provides that records that the FOIA requires to be made available for public inspection in an electronic format are accessible through the Commissions website. In addition, under the existing regulation, persons without access to the internet may obtain these records by telephone or email request or by visiting the Public Reference Room at the Commissions headquarters in Washington, DC. The FOIA itself does not require that agencies provide access to documents that are available for public inspection in an electronic format in a public reference room.
The Public Reference Room, which is housed within the Commissions Library, contains a computer terminal that members of the public may use to access records that the SEC is required to make publicly available under the FOIA. The Commissions visitor logs and information from the Commission Library staff indicate that no one has used the computer terminal in the Public Reference Room to access records that the FOIA requires to be made available for public inspection in an electronic format from 2018 through the date of this document.2 In light of the lack of use of the computer terminal in the Public Reference Room as a means of accessing the records, we are adopting technical amendments to our FOIA rules to remove the reference to obtaining access in the Public Reference Room. The Commissions regulation will continue to provide that persons who do not have access to the internet will be able to obtain the documents required to be made available for public inspection via telephone or email request to the Commissions Office of FOIA Services.

U.S.C. 552a2.
to the COVID pandemic, the public has not been allowed access to the Public Reference Room since April 13, 2020.

II. Administrative Law Matters The Commission finds, in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act APA, that these revisions relate solely to agency organization, procedures, or practice and do not constitute a substantive rule.
Accordingly, the APAs provisions regarding notice of rulemaking, opportunity for public comment, and advance publication of the amendments are not applicable.3 For the same reason, and because these amendments do not substantially affect the rights or obligations of non-agency parties, the provisions of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act are not applicable.4
Additionally, the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, which apply only when notice and comment are required by the APA or other law, are not applicable. These amendments do not contain any collection of information requirements as defined by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
III. Economic Analysis We are adopting an amendment to remove a provision that states that documents that the FOIA requires to be made available for public inspection in an electronic format will be available to persons who do not have access to the internet in the Commissions Public Reference Room. This amendment does not impose any substantive regulatory obligations on any person. We do not believe the amendment will have any substantial economic effect, including on efficiency, competition, or capital formation. All documents that the FOIA
requires to be available will remain available to the public via the internet, mail, email, or telephone request.
Members of the public who wish to make use of the Commissions Public Reference Room but who must now make use of one of the alternatives could potentially incur net costs if the alternatives are less accessible than using the computer available in the Public Reference Room. However, since the documents at issue are readily available through any computer connected to the internet and can also be obtained by mail and since no person has used the Commissions Public Reference Room for this purpose in at least two years, we believe any such incremental costs will be small and incurred infrequently. Because the amendment imposes no substantial new burdens on private parties, the Commission believes that the amendment will not have any impact on
