###### Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

          - 12 CFR Parts 1022, 1002, and 1026

# AGENCY:

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

# ACTION:

Final rule; correction.

# SUMMARY:

                        On March 20, 2023, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (Bureau or CFPB) published the “Agency Contact Information” final rule in the                         **Federal Register**                        . The Bureau has identified four clerical errors in that final rule. These errors are found in the Federal agency contact information that must be provided with Equal Credit Opportunity Act adverse action notices in appendix A to Regulation B, the Fair Credit Reporting Act Summary of Consumer Rights in appendix K to Regulation V, and a Bureau website address where the public may access certain APR tables referenced in comment appendix J-2 to Regulation Z. This document corrects these errors.                    

# DATES:

This correction is effective on September 25, 2023.

# FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

                        Luke Diamond, Counsel or Ruth Van Veldhuizen, Senior Counsel, Office of Regulations, at 202-435-7700. If you require this document in an alternative electronic format, please contact                         *CFPB_Accessibility@cfpb.gov.*

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    On March 20, 2023, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (Bureau or CFPB) published the “Agency Contact Information” final rule in the                     **Federal Register**                    . This final rule made non-substantive corrections and updates to Bureau and other Federal agency contact information found at certain locations in Regulations B, E, F, J, V, X, Z, and DD, including Federal agency contact information that must be provided with Equal Credit Opportunity Act adverse action notices and the Fair Credit Reporting Act Summary of Consumer Rights. This final rule also revised the chapter heading, made various non-substantive changes to Regulations B and V, and provided a Bureau website address where the public may access certain APR tables referenced in Regulation Z.                

                    The Bureau has identified four clerical errors in the final rule. First, in appendix A to Regulation B, “National Credit Union Administration, Office of Consumer Financial Protection (OCFP), Division of Consumer Compliance Policy and Outreach, 1775 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314” should read “National Credit Union Administration, Office of Consumer Financial Protection (OCFP), 1775 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314.” Second, on page two of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Summary of Consumer Rights (found in appendix K to Regulation V), the toll-free opt out phone number listed as 1-800-XXX-XXXX should read 1-888-567-8688. Third, on page four of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Summary of Consumer Rights, “Assistant General Counsel for Office of Aviation Protection” should read “Assistant General Counsel for Office of Aviation Consumer Protection.” Fourth, in comment appendix J-2 to Regulation Z,                     *https://www.consumerfinance.gov/​resources/​applicable-requirements/​annual-percentage-rate-tables/​*                     should read                     *https://www.consumerfinance.gov/​compliance/​compliance-resources/​other-applicable-requirements/​annual-percentage-rate-tables/​.*

*Regulatory Requirements:*                     The Bureau finds that public comment on this correction is unnecessary because the Bureau is correcting inadvertent, technical errors, about which there is minimal, if any, basis for substantive disagreement. Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required, the Regulatory Flexibility Act does not require an initial or final regulatory flexibility analysis. The Bureau has determined that these corrections do not impose any new or revise any existing recordkeeping, reporting, or disclosure requirements on covered entities or members of the public that would be collections of information requiring OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act.

While the formulas contained in this appendix may be directly applied to calculate the annual percentage rate for an individual transaction, they may also be utilized to program calculators and computers to perform the calculations.

Volume I of the tables may be used for credit transactions involving equal payment amounts and periods, as well as for transactions involving any of the following irregularities: odd first period, odd first payment and odd last payment. Volume II of the tables may be used for transactions that involve any type of irregularities. These tables may be obtained from the Bureau, 1700 G Street NW, Washington, DC 20552, upon request. The tables are also available on the Bureau's website at:                         *https://www.consumerfinance.gov/​compliance/​compliance-resources/​other-applicable-requirements/​annual-percentage-rate-tables/​.*
