Sec. 112.3  Written comments on requests (2 U.S.C. 437f(d)).

    (a) Any interested person may submit written comments concerning 
advisory opinion requests made public at the Commission.
    (b) The written comments shall be submitted within 10 calendar days 
following the date the request is made public at the Commission. 
However, if the 10th calendar day falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or 
Federal holiday, the 10 day period ends at the close of the business day 
next following the weekend or holiday. Additional time for submission of 
written comments may be granted upon written request for an extension by 
the person who wishes to submit comments or may be granted by the 
Commission without an extension request.
    (c) Comments on advisory opinion requests should refer to the AOR 
number of the request, and statutory references should be to the United

    (d) Written comments and requests for additional time to comment 
shall be sent to the Federal Election Commission, Office of General 
Counsel, 999 E Street, NW., Washington, DC 20463.
    (e) Before it issues an advisory opinion the Commission shall accept 
and consider all written comments submitted within the 10 day comment 
period or any extension thereof.
