AGENCY: Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System.
ACTION: Final rule; technical
amendment.
SUMMARY: The Board of Governors
(Board) is amending the routing number
guide to next-day availability checks
and local checks in Regulation CC to
delete the reference to the Baltimore
branch office of the Federal Reserve
Bank of Richmond and to reassign the
Federal Reserve routing symbols
currently listed under that office to the
head office of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Philadelphia. These amendments
reflect the restructuring of checkprocessing operations within the
Federal Reserve System.
DATES: The final rule will become
effective on April 18, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulation
CC establishes the maximum period a
depositary bank may wait between
receiving a deposit and making the
deposited funds available for
withdrawal.1 A depositary bank
generally must provide faster
availability for funds deposited by a
‘‘local check’’ than by a ‘‘nonlocal
check.’’ A check is considered local if it
is payable by or at or through a bank
located in the same Federal Reserve
check-processing region as the
depositary bank.
1 For purposes of Regulation CC, the term ‘‘bank’’
refers to any depository institution, including
commercial banks, savings institutions, and credit
unions.

Appendix A to Regulation CC
contains a routing number guide that
assists banks in identifying local and
nonlocal banks and thereby determining
the maximum permissible hold periods
for most deposited checks. The
appendix includes a list of each Federal
Reserve check-processing office and the
first four digits of the routing number,
known as the Federal Reserve routing
symbol, of each bank that is served by
that office for check-processing
purposes. Banks whose Federal Reserve
routing symbols are grouped under the
same office are in the same checkprocessing region and thus are local to
one another.
On April 18, 2009, the Reserve Banks
will transfer the check-processing
operations of the Baltimore branch
office of the Federal Reserve Bank of
Richmond to the head office of the
Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.
As a result of this change, some checks
that are drawn on and deposited at
banks located in the Baltimore and
Philadelphia check-processing regions
and that currently are nonlocal checks
will become local checks subject to
faster availability schedules. To assist
banks in identifying local and nonlocal
checks and making funds availability
decisions, the Board is amending the list
of routing symbols in appendix A
associated with the Federal Reserve
Banks of Richmond and Philadelphia to
reflect the transfer of check-processing
operations from the Baltimore branch
office of the Federal Reserve Bank of
Richmond to the head office of the
Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.
To coincide with the effective date of
the underlying check-processing
changes, the amendments to appendix A
are effective April 18, 2009. The Board
is providing notice of the amendments
at this time to give affected banks ample
time to make any needed processing
changes. Early notice also will enable
affected banks to amend their
availability schedules and related
disclosures if necessary and provide
their customers with notice of these
changes.2
Administrative Procedure Act
The Board has not followed the
provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553(b) relating to
notice and public participation in
connection with the adoption of the
final rule. The revisions to appendix A
are technical in nature and are required
by the statutory and regulatory
definitions of ‘‘check-processing
2 Section 229.18(e) of Regulation CC requires that
banks notify account holders who are consumers
within 30 days after implementing a change that
improves the availability of funds.

region.’’ Because there is no substantive
change on which to seek public input,
the Board has determined that the
§ 553(b) notice and comment procedures
are unnecessary. In addition, the
underlying consolidation of Federal
Reserve Bank check-processing offices
involves a matter relating to agency
management, which is exempt from
notice and comment procedures.

[Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia]
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506;
5 CFR 1320 Appendix A.1), the Board
has reviewed the final rule under
authority delegated to the Board by the
Office of Management and Budget. The
technical amendment to appendix A of
Regulation CC will delete the reference
to the Baltimore branch office of the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and
reassign the routing symbols listed
under that office to the head office of
the Federal Reserve Bank of
Philadelphia. The depository
institutions that are located in the
affected check-processing regions and
that include the routing numbers in
their disclosure statements would be
required to notify customers of the
resulting change in availability under
§ 229.18(e). However, all paperwork
collection procedures associated with
Regulation CC already are in place, and
the Board accordingly anticipates that
no additional burden will be imposed as
a result of this rulemaking.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Final rule; request for
comments.
SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
CASA Model C–212–DF airplanes. This
AD requires a one-time conductivity
inspection to determine the material
used in manufacturing outer to center
wing attachment fittings; and one-time
inspections to detect cracks on affected
fittings, and corrective action if
necessary. This AD results from reports
of cracks found in outer to center wing
attachment fittings. We are issuing this
AD to detect and correct cracks on the
upper and lower fittings in both outer
and center wings, which could result in
reduced structural integrity of the
airplane.
DATES: This AD becomes effective
March 9, 2009.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of certain publications listed in the AD
as of March 9, 2009.
We must receive comments on this
AD by March 23, 2009.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments by
any of the following methods:
• Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to
https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments.
• Fax: 202–493–2251.

SUMMARY: The Board of Governors (Board) is amending the routing number
guide to next-day availability checks and local checks in Regulation CC
to delete the reference to the Baltimore branch office of the Federal
Reserve Bank of Richmond and to reassign the Federal Reserve routing
symbols currently listed under that office to the head office of the
Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. These amendments reflect the
restructuring of check-processing operations within the Federal Reserve
System.
DATES: The final rule will become effective on April 18, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulation CC establishes the maximum period
a depositary bank may wait between receiving a deposit and making the
deposited funds available for withdrawal.\1\ A depositary bank
generally must provide faster availability for funds deposited by a
``local check'' than by a ``nonlocal check.'' A check is considered
local if it is payable by or at or through a bank located in the same
Federal Reserve check-processing region as the depositary bank.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ For purposes of Regulation CC, the term ``bank'' refers to
any depository institution, including commercial banks, savings
institutions, and credit unions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Appendix A to Regulation CC contains a routing number guide that
assists banks in identifying local and nonlocal banks and thereby
determining the maximum permissible hold periods for most deposited
checks. The appendix includes a list of each Federal Reserve check-
processing office and the first four digits of the routing number,
known as the Federal Reserve routing symbol, of each bank that is
served by that office for check-processing purposes. Banks whose
Federal Reserve routing symbols are grouped under the same office are
in the same check-processing region and thus are local to one another.
On April 18, 2009, the Reserve Banks will transfer the check-
processing operations of the Baltimore branch office of the Federal
Reserve Bank of Richmond to the head office of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Philadelphia. As a result of this change, some checks that are drawn
on and deposited at banks located in the Baltimore and Philadelphia
check-processing regions and that currently are nonlocal checks will
become local checks subject to faster availability schedules. To assist
banks in identifying local and nonlocal checks and making funds
availability decisions, the Board is amending the list of routing
symbols in appendix A associated with the Federal Reserve Banks of
Richmond and Philadelphia to reflect the transfer of check-processing
operations from the Baltimore branch office of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Richmond to the head office of the Federal Reserve Bank of
Philadelphia. To coincide with the effective date of the underlying
check-processing changes, the amendments to appendix A are effective
April 18, 2009. The Board is providing notice of the amendments at this
time to give affected banks ample time to make any needed processing
changes. Early notice also will enable affected banks to amend their
availability schedules and related disclosures if necessary and provide
their customers with notice of these changes.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Section 229.18(e) of Regulation CC requires that banks
notify account holders who are consumers within 30 days after
implementing a change that improves the availability of funds.

Administrative Procedure Act
The Board has not followed the provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553(b)
relating to notice and public participation in connection with the
adoption of the final rule. The revisions to appendix A are technical

comment procedures are unnecessary. In addition, the underlying
consolidation of Federal Reserve Bank check-processing offices involves
a matter relating to agency management, which is exempt from notice and
comment procedures.
Paperwork Reduction Act
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3506; 5 CFR 1320 Appendix A.1), the Board has reviewed the final rule
under authority delegated to the Board by the Office of Management and
