Abstract: The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Federal Credit Union Act, 12 U.S.C. 1757(7), 1757(8), 1757(15), lists securities, deposits, and other obligations in which a Federal Credit Union (FCU) may invest. The regulations related to these areas are contained in Part 703 and Section 721.3 of the NCUA Rules and Regulations. These regulations also set forth requirements related to maintaining an adequate investment program, including several required reporting areas. The information collected is used by the NCUA to determine compliance with the appropriate sections of the NCUA Rules and Regulations and Federal Credit Union Act, which governs investment and deposit activities on the basis of safety and soundness concerns. It is used to determine the level of risk that exists within a credit union, the actions taken by the credit union to mitigate such risk, and helps prevent losses to federal credit unions and the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). Type of Review: Reinstatement with change of a previously approved collection. Affected Public: Federal credit unions. Estimated No. of Respondents/ Recordkeepers: 3,899. Frequency of Response: Upon occurrence of triggering action. Estimated Burden Hours per Response: Avg. time per response for information collection requirements prescribed under Subpart A: 0.55; Subpart B: 6.96. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 211,935. Reason for Change: The number of respondents have decreased (Subpart A) due to an adjustment in the number of FCUs, decreasing the total burden, and increases in the number of responses are attributed to adjustments to reflect actual program activity. Program changes are attributed to new information collection requirements prescribed by Subpart B. Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and included in the request for Office of Management and Budget approval. All comments will become a matter of public record. The public is invited to submit comments concerning: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the function of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; PO 00000 Frm 00078 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 (b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of the information on the respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

II. Background

    The NRC is requesting public comments on a preliminary draft action 
plan in an effort to gain an understanding of stakeholder perspectives 
of the digital I&C regulatory challenges, priorities and potential 
solutions. The development of this action plan was directed by the 
Commission in SRM-15-0106 (February 25, 2016) (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML16056A614). In order to reach the widest audience, the action plan 
will be provided via email and posted on the NRC public Web site, as 
well as published in the Federal Register. Additionally, a public 
meeting on the preliminary draft action plan will be held on March 30, 
2016, at NRC Headquarters. Additional information concerning the public 
meeting can be found on NRC's Public Meeting Schedule Web page; https://meetings.nrc.gov/pmns/mtg.
    The NRC staff has developed the preliminary draft action plan to

infrastructure in order to improve the predictability and consistency 
of the process for licensing and oversight of industry stakeholders. 
Improvements and modernization of the NRC's digital I&C regulatory 
processes will improve efficiency of the oversight of licensee 
implementation of digital I&C equipment.
    This preliminary draft action plan has not been subject to all 
levels of NRC management review. Accordingly, it may be incomplete or

before the staff presents an action plan regarding an integrated

regulatory infrastructure to the Commission in a SECY paper (currently 
scheduled to be provided to the Commission in May 2016).
    Because of the schedule for development of the plan, the NRC will 
not issue a comment response document providing formal written 
responses to comments which are received.
