United States average price received for
potatoes by growers as reported by the
Department of Agriculture. Further, not
more than one such assessment may be
collected on any potatoes. The average
price was determined to be $5.88 using
the years 1994–2003 and one-half of one
per centum is 2.94 cents. Accordingly,
the Board’s recommendation of 2.5
cents is within the formula allowed by
section 1207.342(a).
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553, it is also
found and determined upon good cause
that it is impracticable, unnecessary,
and contrary to public interest to give
preliminary notice prior to putting this
rule into effect and that good cause
exists for not postponing the effective
date of this rule until 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register
because: (1) The increase in the
assessment rate should correspond as
closely as practicable with the new 2006
crop; (2) the Board currently needs
additional funding to maintain its
marketing programs and nutrition
campaign; and (3) a sixty-day period is
provided for interested persons to
comment.

BILLING CODE 3410–02–P
12 CFR Part 202
The Equal
Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA), 15
U.S.C. 1691–1691f, makes it unlawful
for a creditor to discriminate against an
applicant in any aspect of a credit
transaction on the basis of the
applicant’s national origin, marital
status, religion, sex, color, race, age
(provided the applicant has the capacity
to contract), receipt of public assistance
benefits, or the good faith exercise of a
right under the Consumer Credit
Protection Act, 15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.
The ECOA is implemented by the
Board’s Regulation B.
In addition to the general prohibition
against discrimination, Regulation B
contains specific rules concerning the
taking and evaluation of credit
applications, including procedures and
notices for credit denials and other
adverse action. Under section 202.9 of
Regulation B, notification given to an
applicant when adverse action is taken
must contain the name and address of
the federal agency that administers
compliance with respect to the creditor.
The federal agencies’ names and
addresses are listed in Appendix A of
Regulation B. This technical
amendment updates the addresses of the
Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency and the United States Small
Business Administration.
