when a specified condition does not

enforcement action or review by the
REC is appropriate. The REC will review
the proposed actions and draft
enforcement documents and assess the
recommendations for pursuing any such
actions. The REC may revise the
recommendations and will document its
concurrence or nonconcurrence with
the supervisory strategy or enforcement
action.
For institutions under a formal
Enforcement Document, or assigned a
composite FIRS rating of ‘‘4’’ or ‘‘5’’,

actions, will be referred to the REC for
consultation.

As appropriate, referrals for the REC’s
consideration also may be made for
conditions not specified above.
Notification of the REC
The REC will be notified when any
institution is assigned a ‘‘3’’ composite

Agency’s supervisory strategies.
Referral to the FCA Board
The REC will refer to the FCA Board
for its consideration all
recommendations concurred with by the
REC for the placement of an
Enforcement Document on a FCS
institution or person. In the unlikely
instance, when an institution receives a
composite ‘‘4’’ or ‘‘5’’ FIRS rating and a
formal Enforcement Document is not
recommended to the FCA Board, the
REC will promptly document and report
the Agency’s supervisory strategy to the
FCA Board.
Reporting to the FCA Board
The REC Chairman will report at least
quarterly to the FCA Board if matters are
referred to or reviewed by the REC, but
FCA Board action is not subsequently
requested.
Actions by the REC
The REC will develop procedures to
address the responsibilities outlined
herein.
Due to OSMO’s statutory
independence, the Director of OSMO
will develop procedures for actions
affecting Farmer Mac.
Dated this 7th day of August 2009 by
order of the Board.
