Abstract and Request for Comments NCUA is reinstating its OMB collection number 3133–0152 for its Management Official Interlocks regulation, 12 CFR part 711, which implements the Interlocks Act for federally insured credit unions. The Interlocks Act generally prohibits financial institution management officials from serving simultaneously with two unaffiliated depository institutions or their holding companies. 12 U.S.C. 3201–3208. For credit unions, the Interlocks Act restricts interlocks between credit unions and other types of financial institutions, not between two or more credit unions. 12 U.S.C. 3204(3). NCUA last substantively revised 12 CFR part 711 in 1999, as part of a coordinated interagency effort with other federal financial regulatory agencies. 64 FR 66356–66360, Nov. 26, 1999. VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:44 Aug 21, 2013 Jkt 229001 NCUA finds information collection burdens associated with this regulation still apply and is reinstating this OMB collection number 3133–0152. The information collections associated with Part 711 are as follows. • Under § 711.3, a credit union may have to maintain records to determine whether the major assets prohibition applies. • Under § 711.4(h)(1)(i), a credit union must notify NCUA to obtain approval to have a director in common with a diversified savings and loan holding company. • Under § 711.5, a credit union may have to maintain records to comply with the small market share exemption. • Under § 711.6(a), a credit union seeking a general exemption to a management official interlocks prohibition in § 711.3 would have to compile information and submit an application to NCUA for approval. The NCUA requests that you send your comments on this collection to the location(s) listed in the addresses section. Your comments should address: (a) The necessity of the information collection for the proper performance of NCUA, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of our estimate of the burden (hours and cost) of the collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways we could enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways we could minimize the burden of the collection of the information on the respondents such as through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 274b. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 as amended (AEA), provides the NRC authority to enter into agreements with States so they can assume, and the NRC can relinquish regulatory authority over, specified AEA radioactive materials and activities. On December 15, 1969, Georgia entered into a Section 274b. Agreement with the Atomic Energy Commission (the predecessor regulatory agency to the NRC) to regulate source, byproduct, and special nuclear material in quantities not sufficient to form a critical mass. Currently, the State of Georgia has an Agreement with the NRC which recognizes the State’s regulatory authority to evaluate and approve SS&D applications. On June 5, 2013, the NRC received a letter from Georgia Governor Nathan Deal (ADAMS Accession No. ML13165A092) requesting to relinquish the State’s regulatory authority to evaluate and approve SS&D applications, and asking the NRC to assume regulatory authority over this program. PO 00000 Frm 00093 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 52219 The Governor of Georgia stated that it has become increasingly challenging for Georgia to recruit and retain the personnel necessary to perform the specialized SS&D activities, and concluded that it is in the best interest of the State to return regulatory authority to evaluate and approve SS&D applications to the NRC in order to focus more attention and resources on the primary areas of the State’s radioactive materials program. The State of Georgia currently has 15 manufacturers with 77 active SS&D sheets in the national registry. The Commission approved the request (ADAMS Accession No. ML13219A293) and has notified the State of Georgia that effective August 20, 2013, the NRC has assumed authority to evaluate and approve sealed source and device applications within the State (ADAMS Accession No. ML13221A153). The State of Georgia will retain authority to regulate the manufacture and use of sealed sources and devices within the State in accordance with its Section 274b. Agreement with the NRC.
