entities or persons (NGEPs) through
their Community Reinvestment Act
(CRA) responsibilities. Section 48 of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act)
requires disclosure of certain of these
agreements, and imposes reporting
requirements on institutions and other
insured depository institutions (IDIs),
their affiliates, and NGEPs. 12 U.S.C.
1831y. As mandated by the FDI Act, the
OCC, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, and the Federal Reserve

these disclosure and reporting
requirements. The reporting provisions
of these regulations constitute
collections of information under the
PRA. The regulations issued by the OCC
are codified at 12 CFR parts 35 and 133;
the collections of information contained
in that regulation are known as ‘‘CRA

Section 48 of the FDI Act applies to
written agreements that: (1) Are made in
fulfillment of the CRA, (2) involve funds
or other resources of an IDI or affiliate

$10,000 in a year, or loans with an
aggregate principal value of more than
$50,000 in a year, and (3) are entered
into by an IDI or affiliate of an IDI and
an NGEP. 12 U.S.C. 1831y(e).
The parties to a covered agreement
must make the agreement available to
the public and the appropriate agency.
The parties also must file a report
annually with the appropriate agency
concerning the disbursement, receipt,
and use of funds or other resources
under the agreement. The collections of
information in CRA Sunshine
implement these statutorily mandated
disclosure and reporting requirements.
The parties to the agreement may
request confidential treatment of
proprietary and confidential
information in an agreement or annual
report. 12 CFR 35.8; 12 U.S.C. 1831y(a)–
(c).
The information collections are found
in 12 CFR 35.4(b); 35.6(b)–(d); 35.7(b)
and (f); 133.4(b); 133.6(b)–(d); and

requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide

existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, the OCC is publishing
notice of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
The OCC is proposing to extend, with
revision, the approval of the following
information collection:
Title: Notice Regarding Unauthorized
Access to Customer Information.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0227.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Description: Section 501(b) of the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (15 U.S.C.
6801) requires the OCC to establish
appropriate standards for national banks
relating to administrative, technical, and
physical safeguards: (1) To insure the
security and confidentiality of customer
records and information; (2) to protect
against any anticipated threats or
hazards to the security or integrity of
such records; and (3) to protect against
unauthorized access to, or use of, such
records or information that could result
in substantial harm or inconvenience to
any customer.
The Interagency Guidelines
Establishing Information Security
Standards, 12 CFR Part 30, Appendix B
and Part 170, Appendix B (collectively,
Security Guidelines), implementing
section 501(b), require each entity
supervised by the OCC (supervised
institution) to consider and adopt a
response program, if appropriate, that
specifies actions to be taken when the
supervised institution suspects or
detects that unauthorized individuals
have gained access to customer
information.
The Interagency Guidance on
Response Programs for Unauthorized
Customer Information and Customer
Notice (Breach Notice Guidance 1),
which interprets the Security
Guidelines, states that, at a minimum, a
supervised institution’s response
program should contain procedures for
the following:
(1) Assessing the nature and scope of
an incident, and identifying what
customer information systems and types
of customer information have been
accessed or misused;
(2) Notifying its primary Federal
regulator as soon as possible when the
supervised institution becomes aware of
an incident involving unauthorized
access to, or use of, sensitive customer
information;
(3) Consistent with the OCC’s
Suspicious Activity Report regulations,
notifying appropriate law enforcement
authorities and filing a timely SAR in
1 12
CFR Part 30, Appendix B, Supplement A.

situations in which Federal criminal
violations require immediate attention,
such as when a reportable violation is
ongoing;
(4) Taking appropriate steps to
contain and control the incident in an
effort to prevent further unauthorized
access to, or use of, customer
information (for example, by
monitoring, freezing, or closing affected
accounts) while preserving records and
other evidence; and
(5) Notifying customers when
warranted.
