SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Proposal To Renew the Following Currently-Approved Collections of 
Information

    1. Title: Community Reinvestment Act.
    OMB Number: 3064-0092.
    Form Number: FDIC.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Affected Public: Insured state nonmember banks and state savings 
associations.
    Estimated Reporting Burden--The reporting requirements involve 
approximately 257 large banks:
    257 respondents; 82,223 reporting burden hours
    Estimated Recordkeeping Burden--The recordkeeping requirements 
involve approximately 257 large banks:
    257 record keepers; 83,233 recordkeeping burden hours
    Estimated Disclosure Burden--The public file and public notice 
disclosure requirements involve 4524 small banks and 257 large banks:
    4781 respondents @ 10 hours = 47,810 total disclosure burden hours.
    Total CRA Burden--The FDIC estimates the combined estimated total 
annual reporting, recordkeeping, and disclosure burden at 213,266 
hours.
    General Description of Collection: The Community Reinvestment Act 
regulation requires the FDIC to assess the record of banks and thrifts 
in helping meet the credit needs of their entire communities, including 
low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, consistent with safe and sound 
operations; and to take this record into account in evaluating 
applications for mergers, branches, and certain other corporate 
activities.
    2. Title: Application for Waiver of Prohibition on Acceptance of 
Brokered Deposits
    OMB Number: 3064-0099.
    Form Number: None.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Affected Public: Insured state nonmember banks and state savings 
associations.
    Estimated Number of Applications: 85.
    Estimated Time per Application: 6 hours.
    Total Annual Burden: 510 hours.
    General Description of Collection: Section 29 of the Federal 
Deposit Insurance Act prohibits undercapitalized insured depository 
institutions from accepting, renewing, or rolling over any brokered 
deposits. Adequately capitalized institutions may do so with a waiver 
from the FDIC, while well-capitalized institutions may accept, renew, 
or roll over brokered deposits without restriction.
    3. Title: Management Official Interlocks.
    OMB Number: 3064-0118.
    Form Number: None.
    Affected Public: Insured state nonmember banks and state savings 
associations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 10.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Annual Burden Hours per Response: 4 hours.
    Total estimated annual burden: 40 hours.
    General Description of Collection: The FDIC's Management Official 
Interlocks regulation, 12 CFR 348, which implements the Depository 
Institutions Management Interlocks Act (DIMIA), 12 U.S.C. 3201-3208, 
generally prohibits bank management officials from serving 
simultaneously with two unaffiliated depository institutions or their 
holding companies but allows the FDIC to grant exemptions in 
appropriate circumstances. Consistent with DIMIA, the FDIC's Management 
Official Interlocks regulation has an application requirement requiring 
information specified in the FDIC's procedural regulation. The rule 
also contains a notification requirement.
    4. Title: Affordable Marketing/Consumer Opt-Out Notices.
    OMB Number: 3064-0149.
    Form Number: None.
    Affected Public: Insured state nonmember banks and state savings 
associations.
    Estimated Burden on Institutions:

978 x 18 hours = 17,604 hours.

    Estimated Burden on Consumers:

Number of large-bank consumers who opt out = 39 x 25,000 x      = 34,125
 0.035
Number of small-bank consumers who opt out = 939 x 5,000 x     = 164,325
 0.035
                                                            ------------
Total number of consumers who opt out = 34,125 + 164,325       = 198,450
 

    Estimated time per consumer opt-out = 5 minutes.
    Estimated burden on consumers who opt out = 198,450 x 5/60 hours = 
16,537.5 hours.
    Total Estimated Burden: 17,604 hours + 16,537.5 hours = 34,141.5 
hours.
    General Description of Collection: The Section 214 of the FACT Act 
requires financial institutions to disclose to consumers the 
opportunity to opt out of marketing solicitations from affiliates. The 
disclosures and responsive consumer opt-out notices comprise the 
elements of this collection of information.
