Considering hardware, software, and
network and cloud security,
manufacturers should consider
developing a simulator, using case
scenarios and threat modeling on all
systems, sub-systems, and devices, to
test for safety risks, including
cybersecurity vulnerabilities, at all steps
in the manufacturing process for the
entire supply chain, to implement an
effective risk mitigation plan. See id.
Manufacturers of emerging
technologies and the motor vehicles on
which such technology is installed have
a continuing obligation to proactively
identify safety concerns and mitigate the
risks of harm. If a manufacturer
discovers or is otherwise made aware of
any defects, noncompliances, or other
unreasonable risks to safety after the
vehicle and/or technology has been in
safe operation for some time, then it
should strongly consider promptly
contacting the appropriate NHTSA
personnel to determine the necessary
next steps. Where a manufacturer fails
to adequately address a safety concern,
NHTSA, when appropriate, will
explicitly address that concern through
its enforcement authority.
Applicability/Legal Statement: This
proposed Enforcement Guidance
Bulletin sets forth NHTSA’s current
views on the topic of emerging
automotive technology and suggests
guiding principles and best practices to
be utilized by motor vehicle and
equipment manufacturers in this
context. This proposed Bulletin is not a
final agency action and is intended as
guidance only. This proposed Bulletin
does not have the force or effect of law.
This Bulletin is not intended, nor can it
be relied upon, to create any rights
enforceable by any party against
NHTSA, the U.S. Department of
Transportation, or the United States.
These recommended practices do not
establish any defense to any violations
of the Safety Act, or regulations
thereunder, or violation of any statutes
or regulations that NHTSA administers.
This Bulletin may be revised in writing
without notice to reflect changes in the
Agency’s views and analysis, or to
clarify and update text.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC
is proposing to extend OMB approval of
the following information collection:
Title: Securities Exchange Act
Disclosure Rules and Securities of
Federal Savings Associations.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0106.
Description: This submission covers
an existing regulation and involves no
change to the regulation or to the
information collection requirements.
The Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) is required by statute
to collect, in accordance with its
regulations, certain information and
documents from any firm that is
required to register its stock with the
SEC.1 Federal law requires the OCC to
apply similar regulations to any national
bank or Federal savings association
similarly required to be registered (those
with a class of equity securities held by
2,000 or more shareholders).2
12 CFR part 11 ensures that a national
bank or Federal savings association
whose securities are subject to
registration provides adequate
information about its operations to
current and potential shareholders,
depositors, and the public. The OCC
reviews the information to ensure that it
complies with Federal law and makes
public all information required to be
filed under the rule. Investors,

comments were received. Comments
continue to be requested on:

including whether the information has
practical utility;

estimates of the burden of the
information collections, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) Ways to minimize the burden of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC
is proposing to extend OMB approval of
the following information collection:
Title: Leasing.
PO 00000
Frm 00118

Sfmt 4703
OMB Control No.: 1557–0206.
Description: This submission requests
the renewal of PRA clearance for an
existing regulation and involves no
change to the regulation or to the
information collection requirements.
Under 12 CFR 23.4(c), national banks
must liquidate or release property that
is no longer subject to lease (off-lease
property) within five years from the date
of the lease expiration. If a national
bank wishes to extend the five-year
holding period for up to an additional
five years, it must obtain OCC approval.
Permitting a national bank to extend the
holding period may result in cost
savings. It also may provide flexibility
for a national bank that experiences
unusual or unforeseen conditions that
would make it imprudent to dispose of
the off-lease property prior to the
expiration of the five-year holding
period. Section 23.4(c) requires a
national bank seeking an extension to
provide a clearly convincing
demonstration as to why any additional
holding period is necessary. In addition,
a national bank must value off-lease
property at the lower of current fair
market value or book value promptly
after the property comes off-lease. These
requirements enable the OCC to ensure
that a national bank is not holding the
property for speculative reasons and
that the value of the property is
recorded in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Under 12 CFR 23.6, leases are subject
to the lending limits prescribed by 12
U.S.C. 84, as implemented by 12 CFR
part 32, or, if the lessee is an affiliate of
the national bank, to the restrictions on
transactions with affiliates prescribed by
12 U.S.C. 371c and 371c–1. Twelve
U.S.C. 24 contains two separate
provisions authorizing a national bank
to acquire personal property for
purposes of lease financing. Twelve
U.S.C. 24(Seventh) authorizes leases of
personal property (Section 24(Seventh)
Leases) if the lease is a conforming lease
as defined in 12 CFR 23.2(d)(2) and
represents a noncancelable obligation of
the lessee (i.e., the lease serves as the
functional equivalent of a loan). See 12
CFR 23.20. A national bank also may
acquire personal property for purposes
of lease financing under the authority of
12 U.S.C. 24(Tenth) (CEBA Leases).
Section 23.5 requires that if a national
bank enters into both types of leases, its
records must distinguish between the
two types of leases. This information is
required to establish that the national
bank is complying with the limitations
and requirements applicable to the two
types of leases.
National banks use the information to
ensure their compliance with applicable
