The collection is related to the requirement that each federal credit union (FCU) must establish reasonable policies and procedures for implementing the red flag guidelines to identify possible risks to FCU members or to an FCU’s safety and soundness. Each FCU also must develop an Identity Theft Prevention Program, provide staff training, and report to its board of directors, a board committee, or senior management, at least annually. Due to the transferring of agency responsibilities under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (Dodd-Frank Act), this notice and collection have been modified since the 60-day notice to reflect the current regulatory landscape.

E&I Contact: Program Officer Judy Graham eimail@ncua.gov, 703–518– 6360. Jkt 229001 I. Abstract and Request for Comments NCUA is reinstating and amending the collection for 3133–0175. This collection of information is required by Sections 114 of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACT Act), Public Law 108–159, amending the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681– 1681x. NCUA is renewing its collection, and also updating the collection to reflect that a portion of the FACT Act authority has been transferred to the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB) pursuant to Title X of the Dodd-Frank Act, Public Law 111– 203, 124 Stat. 1955, and republished as CFPB regulations at 76 FR 79308, Dec. 21, 2011. The burden estimates for this portion of the collection have been revised to remove the burden attributable to the four federally insured credit unions with over $10 billion in total assets, now carried by CFPB pursuant to section 1025 of the DoddFrank Act. As required by Section 114 of the FACT Act, Appendix J to 12 CFR part 717 contains red flag guidelines for FCUs to use in identifying patterns, practices, and specific forms of activity that indicate the possible existence of identity theft. In addition, 12 CFR 717.90 requires each FCU to establish reasonable policies and procedures to address the risk of identity theft that incorporate the guidelines. Pursuant to Section 717.91, credit card and debit card issuers must implement reasonable policies and procedures to assess the validity of a request for a change of address under certain circumstances. Section 717.90 requires each NCUA regulated FCUs that offers or maintains one or more covered accounts to PO 00000 Frm 00045 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 53171 develop and implement a written Identity Theft Prevention Program (Program). In developing the Program, financial institutions and creditors are required to consider the guidelines in Appendix J to part 717 and include those that are appropriate. The initial Program must be approved by the board of directors or an appropriate committee thereof. The board, an appropriate committee thereof, or a designated employee at the level of senior management must be involved in the oversight of the Program. In addition, staff members must be trained to carry out the Program. Pursuant to Section 717.91, each credit and debit card issuer is required to establish and implement policies and procedures to assess the validity of a change of address request under certain circumstances. Before issuing an additional or replacement card, the card issuer must notify the cardholder or use another means to assess the validity of the change of address. Burden estimate: The hourly burden increased despite a decline in respondents due to an increase in the estimated processing times. NCUA estimates 4,206 respondents (FCUs with assets of $10 million or less). Each FCU requires 111 hours annually for a total of 466,866 hours annually. Included in the NCUA estimates of the 4,206 annual respondents annually, two are new FCUs requiring a one-time additional 250 hours for program development. Therefore, the new FCUs incur an additional 500 hours annually. Hence, NCUA’s estimated total annual burden is 467,366 hours, based upon the 111 hours for the annual program and additional 250 hours for new FCU program development. The NCUA requests that you send your comments on this collection to the location 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 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. It is NCUA’s policy to make all comments available to the public for review. E:\FR\FM\28AUN1.SGM 28AUN1 53172 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 167 / Wednesday, August 28, 2013 / Notices II.

Abstract and Request for Comments NCUA is reinstating the collection for 3133–0169. FICUs will apply to the NCUA for approval to purchase assets or assume liabilities of privately-insured credit unions or other financial institutions. NCUA will use the information in the application to determine the safety and soundness of the transaction and risk to the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). NCUA anticipates a FICU’s application for approval to purchase assets or assume liabilities of a privately-insured credit union or other financial institution would consist of a cover letter and any transaction documents already prepared by the FICU in conjunction with the anticipated purchase or assumption. NCUA believes this would take one hour or less to prepare and transmit the cover letter and attach any additional documents; therefore, there is no increase or decrease in the burden for this data collection. The term ‘‘transaction documents’’ include contracts, agreements, letters, offers, or similar documents already created between two parties as evidence of a transaction or negotiation. NCUA does not require FICUs to prepare these documents and believes they are created in the regular course of business. Therefore, NCUA has used one burden hour per credit union per filing required from an FICU to prepare a letter requesting NCUA’s approval of the transaction and describing the transaction. The NCUA requests that you send your comments on this collection to the location listed in the addresses section. Your comments should address: (a) The necessity of the information collection PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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:

I. Abstract and Request for Comments

    NCUA is reinstating and amending the collection for 3133-0175. This 
collection of information is required by Sections 114 of the Fair and 
Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACT Act), Public Law 108-159, 
amending the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681-1681x. NCUA is 
renewing its collection, and also updating the collection to reflect 
that a portion of the FACT Act authority has been transferred to the 
Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB) pursuant to Title X of 
the Dodd-Frank Act, Public Law 111-203, 124 Stat. 1955, and republished 
as CFPB regulations at 76 FR 79308, Dec. 21, 2011. The burden estimates 
for this portion of the collection have been revised to remove the 
burden attributable to the four federally insured credit unions with 
over $10 billion in total assets, now carried by CFPB pursuant to 
section 1025 of the Dodd-Frank Act. As required by Section 114 of the 
FACT Act, Appendix J to 12 CFR part 717 contains red flag guidelines 
for FCUs to use in identifying patterns, practices, and specific forms 
of activity that indicate the possible existence of identity theft. In 
addition, 12 CFR 717.90 requires each FCU to establish reasonable 
policies and procedures to address the risk of identity theft that 
incorporate the guidelines. Pursuant to Section 717.91, credit card and 
debit card issuers must implement reasonable policies and procedures to 
assess the validity of a request for a change of address under certain 
circumstances.
    Section 717.90 requires each NCUA regulated FCUs that offers or 
maintains one or more covered accounts to develop and implement a 
written Identity Theft Prevention Program (Program). In developing the 
Program, financial institutions and creditors are required to consider 
the guidelines in Appendix J to part 717 and include those that are 
appropriate. The initial Program must be approved by the board of 
directors or an appropriate committee thereof. The board, an 
appropriate committee thereof, or a designated employee at the level of 
senior management must be involved in the oversight of the Program. In 
addition, staff members must be trained to carry out the Program. 
Pursuant to Section 717.91, each credit and debit card issuer is 
required to establish and implement policies and procedures to assess 
the validity of a change of address request under certain 
circumstances. Before issuing an additional or replacement card, the 
card issuer must notify the cardholder or use another means to assess 
the validity of the change of address.
    Burden estimate: The hourly burden increased despite a decline in 
respondents due to an increase in the estimated processing times. NCUA 
estimates 4,206 respondents (FCUs with assets of $10 million or less). 
Each FCU requires 111 hours annually for a total of 466,866 hours 
annually.
    Included in the NCUA estimates of the 4,206 annual respondents 
annually, two are new FCUs requiring a one-time additional 250 hours 
for program development. Therefore, the new FCUs incur an additional 
500 hours annually.
    Hence, NCUA's estimated total annual burden is 467,366 hours, based 
upon the 111 hours for the annual program and additional 250 hours for 
new FCU program development.
    The NCUA requests that you send your comments on this collection to 
the location 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 
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. It is 
NCUA's policy to make all comments available to the public for review.
