The proposed amendment would revise a limited number of Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements by adding a note or footnote permitting a one-time extension from a refueling frequency (i.e., at least once per 18 months) to a maximum of 28 months.

The Farm Credit Administration (FCA, we or our) is proposing to amend our regulations related to Farm Credit System (System) bank and association disclosures to shareholders and investors. The proposed rule would exclude certain employees and their associated compensation amounts from the reporting requirement in our regulations. Under the proposed rule, there would be no reporting requirement for employees that are not senior officers and would not otherwise be considered ``highly compensated employees'' but for payments related to or change(s) in value of the employee's qualified pension plan. Under the proposed rule, such employees' pension plans must have been available to all similarly situated employees on the same basis.
