(``Reform Act'') (see 71 FR 28804). The FDIC is extending the comment

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by RIN number 3064-AD07 
by any of the following methods:

Analyst, Division of Insurance and Research, (202) 898-8967; Donna M.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 18, 2006, the FDIC requested comment 
on its proposal to implement the dividend requirements for an initial 
two-hear period. The proposed rule would sunset on December 31, 2008, 
and addresses the method for the calculation, declaration, and payment 
of dividends, and administrative appeals of individual dividend 
amounts.
    The proposed rule on dividends is just one of three notices of 
proposed rulemaking to implement certain aspects of the Reform Act 
published by the FDIC on the same date. At that time, the FDIC also 
published proposed rules on the one-time assessment credit (see 71 FR 
28809) and certain procedural and operational changes to its risk-based 
assessments regulations in part 327 (see 71 FR 28790). In addition, the 
Reform Act requires the FDIC to prescribe rules on the designated 
reserve ratio and risk-based assessments. Those proposed rules are 
expected to be published in the coming weeks.
    The FDIC has determined that it would be most effective for comment 
purposes to have a longer period of overlap between the pending 
proposed rules on credits, dividends, and operational changes to the 
risk-based assessments regulations, and the upcoming proposed rules on 
the designated reserve ratio and risk-based assessments. All of these 
proposals relate in one way or another to risk-based assessments, and 
commenters should have a period of time during which they could, if 
they so choose, review all of the proposals together.
    Recently, ING Bank, fsb and Nationwide Bank requested that the FDIC 
extend the closing date for comments on the pending proposed rules to 
coincide with the closing date for comments on the upcoming proposed 
rules. While the FDIC understands the concerns expressed, a 30-day 
extension should provide sufficient comment period overlap to permit 
all of the proposals to be reviewed together, giving interested parties 
90 days to comment on the three pending proposals and allowing FDIC 
staff to consider all comments in a timely manner.

    Dated at Washington, DC this 20th day of June, 2006.
    By order of the Board of Directors.

Executive Secretary.
