General description of report: This
information is mandatory (12 U.S.C.
602, 625). In addition, with respect to
the contact information collected in the
Patriot Act Contact Information section,
the Board’s regulation’s (12 CFR part
211.5(m)) instruct Edge and agreement
corporations to comply with the
information sharing regulations that the
Department of the Treasury issued
pursuant to Section 314(a) of the USA
Patriot Act of 2001, Public Law 107–56,
115 Stat. 307 (31 U.S.C. 5318(h)); and

investment Edge corporations, only
information collected on Schedule RC–
M (with the exception of item 3) are
given confidential treatment pursuant to
Section (b)(4) of FOIA (5 U.S.C.
552(b)(4)).
In addition, the information provided
in the Patriot Act Contact Information
section may be withheld as confidential
under FOIA to prevent unauthorized
individuals from falsely posing as an
institution’s point-of-contact in order to
gain access to the highly sensitive and
confidential communications sent by
email between the Financial Crimes
Enforcement Network or federal law
enforcement officials and the Patriot Act
point-of-contact. The identity and
contact information of private
individuals, which is collected and
maintained for law enforcement
purposes under the Patriot Act, appears
exempt from disclosure pursuant to
exemption 7(C) of FOIA (5 U.S.C.
552(b)(7)(C)).
Abstract: The FR 2886b collects
quarterly financial data from banking
Edge and agreement corporations and
investment (nonbanking) Edge and
agreement corporations. Except for
examination reports, it provides the
only financial data available for these
corporations. The Federal Reserve is
solely responsible for authorizing,
supervising, and assigning ratings to
Edge and agreement corporations. The
Federal Reserve uses the data collected
on the FR 2886b to identify present and
potential problems and monitor and
develop a better understanding of
activities within the industry.
Current Actions: On March 27, 2015,
the Federal Reserve published a notice
in the Federal Register (80 FR 16386)
requesting public comment for 60 days
on the revision, without extension, of
the financial statements for holding
companies. The comment period
expired on May 26, 2015. The Federal
Reserve did not receive any public
comments addressing the proposed
revisions to these information
collections. However, due to delays in
enhancements to the Federal Reserve’s
automated systems, the Federal Reserve
is extending the implementation date to
March 31, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
The purpose of this application is to
streamline the business information
collection process to accelerate the
approval process between the Federal
Government and a commercial wireless
telecommunications company wishing
to install a wireless antenna on a
Federal asset for the expansion of the
company’s wireless network. Federal
executive agencies with landholding
authority will use this form.
Lhorne on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
B. Discussion and Analysis
One respondent submitted multiple
comments on the request to approve the
new information collection. The
analysis of the public comments is
summarized as follows:
Comment: The proposed application
form requests site-specific, detailed
information that may not be available to
the applicant at the time of the
application.
Response: The submission of sitespecific, detailed, complete, and
accurate drawings and specifications is
not required at the time the application
is submitted. However, if the
application is approved, detailed
drawings and specifications are required
and critical to determine if an
installation would be suitable,
particularly for a rooftop antenna. The
Government reserves the right to reject
a request if the applicant does not
provide detailed drawings and
specifications of the proposed
equipment, structures and installation
prior to the completion of contract
negotiations.
Comment: GSA should require each
agency to provide a contact person for
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:19 Aug 27, 2015
Jkt 235001
handling applications related to each
property.
Response: The application requests
the name of individuals who will serve
as the respective points of contact for
the applicant and the Government.
Since the application is project/building
specific (i.e., not a blanket application
for multiple installations at multiple
locations,) the desired results will be
attained with use of the application.
GSA already maintains an online map of
all federally owned properties under
GSA’s jurisdiction, custody, and control
with point-of-contact information
specific to using space for private sector
antenna installations and will encourage
the other executive landholding
agencies to do the same.
Comment: Online tracking
mechanisms should be utilized.
Response: GSA agrees online tracking
mechanisms are useful tools. GSA, in
consultation with other executive
landholding agencies, will work to
develop an online tracking system.
Comment: RFI certification report
requirement should be clarified.
Response: The RFI certification is
listed as a potential requirement
because it is not required for all
projects; for instance, the RFI
certification is of no benefit for landsited towers, as these types of towers are
secured against unauthorized access.
The RFI certification is a long standing
requirement for rooftop antenna
installations so that the many
individuals requiring access to building
rooftops may do so safely and so that
the new antenna microwave frequencies
will not cause interference with existing
rooftop antennas. This certification
requirement is a business practice that
GSA encourages other executive
landholding agencies to adopt for their
rooftop antenna installations. It is not
the intention of this application to
require a RFI certification for those
secured Government campuses where
access to the antenna installation is
restricted.
Comment: ‘‘Federal, state and local
statutory recording requirements’’
should be clarified or deleted.
Response: GSA currently requires
vendors to comply with all Federal,
state and local statutory requirements
and will encourage other executive
landholding agencies to adopt this
practice. No change will be made in
response to this comment.
Comment: Requirements for a security
deposit should be eliminated at the
application stage.
Response: The security deposit is not
required until after the application is
approved. GSA requires a security
deposit for antenna installations to
PO 00000
Frm 00042
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
protect against damage and
abandonment. While the majority of
large carriers are responsible tenants,
carrier bankruptcy is a possibility. The
Government reserves the right to avoid
the necessity of using appropriated
funds to address damage or equipment
abandonment.
Comment: Requirements for a
performance bond should be eliminated.
Response: Requiring a performance
bond is standard business practice. The
purpose of the application is to prequalify the carrier. The applicant is not
expected to furnish the performance
bond at the time it submits the
application. This provision is intended
to notify applicants that a performance
bond may be required prior to
commencing installation of the
equipment.
Comment: Certain information
requested is too broad, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
License does not apply to all, and
clarification needed for Check List items
1 and 7.
Response: The information being
collected is standard business
information required to establish the
financial viability of a business to
determine whether to enter into
negotiations. The information would
only be collected by the Contracting
Officer (CO) or the Contracting Officer’s
Representative (COR). The CO or the
COR may not handle day-to-day site
issues, but are reliable agency points of
contact for the carrier throughout the
life of the contract.
If the application is being used for a
system that does not require an FCC
license, the carrier can notify the agency
and the agency can, in turn, confirm
with the FCC that a license is not
required for the proposed installation.
With regard to the Potential
Document Check List, item No. 1 refers
to the business license that most, if not
all, states require for a commercial
business to be conducted in their state.
Item No. 7 refers to the contractual
requirement that lessees must comply
with all applicable Federal, state, local
government, and municipal laws,
statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations,
codes, decrees, orders and other such
requirements, including, without
limitation, those laws regarding wages
and hours, health, safety, building
codes, emergencies, and security.
Comment: GSA should clarify the title
of the proposed common form
application.
Response: The posting to the Federal
Register for the second request for
comments will use the correct title for
the application.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 167 / Friday, August 28, 2015 / Notices
Comment: The application form
should be used by all federal agencies.
Response: The current draft
application for wireless antenna
installations is being processed as a
Common Form for use by all federal
agencies. Once the Federal Register
posting process is complete, the
application will be submitted to OMB
for approval. An application for right-ofway and easements, the SF299
‘‘Application for Transportations and
Utility Systems on Federal Land,’’ is
already in existence, and its use is
required for all federal agencies. The
SF–299 was developed by the
Departments of Agriculture, Interior,
and Transportation.
Comment: Moratoria on accepting
applications are prohibited.
Response: This comment speaks not
to the application, but rather to shared
policy and procedures to be developed
by the executive landholding agencies
acting in common in support of the
application process. This comment will
be taken into consideration; however,
no change will be made to the
application in response to this
comment.
Comment: Timely responses to
applications are mandatory.
Response: It is agreed that timely
responses are important; however, the
comment speaks not to the application,
but rather to shared policy and
procedures to be developed by the
executive landholding agencies acting
in common in support of the application
process. No change will be made to the
application in response to this
comment.
Comment: Applications should be
‘‘deemed approved’’ upon passage of
time.
Response: While timely approval is a
shared goal, federal agencies must
perform the due diligence required to
confirm that implementation of a
proposal is in the best interests of the
Government and the taxpayer.
Comment: Applications should be
presumed consistent with each agency’s
mission and property use.
Response: Given the different
missions and property uses existent
among the executive landholding
agencies, it is not clear how making
such a presumption is in the best
interest of the Government and the
taxpayer.
Comment: The application form
should not implicate a Joint Spectrum
Center review for commercial providers
of unlicensed wireless services.
Response: The decision to use
unlicensed wireless services is an
internal policy decision to be developed
in concert among the executive
VerDate Sep<11>2014

landholding agencies in support of the
application process. No change will be
made to the application in response to
this comment.
Comment: Applicants may opt in to
the rates, terms, and conditions of other
providers located at the federal
property.
Response: This comment speaks not
to the application, but rather to shared
policy and procedures to be developed
by the executive landholding agencies
acting in common in support of the
application process. No change will be
made to the application in response to
this comment.
Comment: The ‘‘Notice of Competitive
Procedures’’ should be posted to
FedBizOps.gov upon receipt of an
application.
Response: This comment speaks not
to the application, but rather to shared
policy and procedures to be developed
by the executive landholding agencies
acting in common in support of the
application process. No change will be
made to the application in response to
this comment.
Comment: Application forms should
be utilized to initiate amendments to
existing installations and the applicable
lease, easement, or right-of-way.
Response: This comment speaks not
to the application, but rather to shared
policy and procedures to be developed
by the executive landholding agencies
acting in common in support of the
application process. No change will be
made to the application in response to
this comment.
Comment: Executive agencies may
utilize easements or leases with 25-year
terms for wireless siting requests.
Response: This comment speaks not
to the application, but rather to shared
policy and procedures to be developed
by the executive landholding agencies
acting in common in support of the
application process. No change will be
made to the application in response to
this comment.
