[Docket No. R–1543 RIN 7100 AE–55]
Rules of Practice for Hearings
Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System (the ‘‘Board’’) is
issuing a final rule amending its rules of
practice and procedure to adjust the
amount of each civil money penalty
(‘‘CMP’’) provided by law within its
jurisdiction to account for inflation as
required by the Federal Civil Penalties
Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements
Act of 2015.
DATES: This final rule is effective
January 25, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Federal Civil Penalties Inflation
Adjustment Act
The Federal Civil Penalties Inflation
Adjustment Act of 1990, 28 U.S.C. 2461
note (‘‘FCPIA Act’’), requires federal
agencies to adjust, by regulation, the
CMPs within their jurisdiction to
account for inflation. The Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
Improvements Act of 2015 (the ‘‘2015
Act’’)1 amended the FCPIA Act to
require federal agencies to make a
‘‘catch-up’’ adjustment—the first
inflation adjustment after the date of
enactment of the 2015 Act—through an
interim final rulemaking, to take effect
no later than August 1, 2016, and to
make adjustments not later than January
15 of every year thereafter.2 On July 20,
2016, the Board issued an interim final
rule setting the CMP levels pursuant to
the required catch-up adjustment. The
Board is now issuing a new final rule to
set the CMP levels pursuant to the
required annual adjustment for 2017.
The Board will apply these adjusted
maximum penalty levels to any
penalties assessed on or after January
15, 2017, whose associated violations
occurred on or after November 2, 2015.

Penalties assessed for violations
occurring prior to November 2, 2015
will be subject to the amounts set in the
Board’s 2012 adjustment pursuant to the
FCPIA Act.3
Under the 2015 Act, the annual
adjustment to be made for 2017 is the
percentage by which the Consumer
Price Index for the month of October
2016 exceeds the Consumer Price Index
for the month of October 2015. On
December 16, 2016, as directed by the
2015 Act, the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) issued guidance to
affected agencies on implementing the
required annual adjustment which
included the relevant inflation
multiplier.4 Using OMB’s multiplier, the
Board calculated the adjusted penalties
for its CMPs, rounding the penalties to
the nearest dollar.5
Comment Received in Response to the
July 20, 2016 Interim Final Rule
The Board received one comment
letter on behalf of International
Bancshares Corporation (‘‘IBC’’) in
response to the July 20, 2016 interim
final rule. IBC expressed
disappointment that the Board
published the new penalty levels
through an interim final rule without
engaging in prior notice and comment
proceedings. As IBC itself
acknowledged, however, the 2015 Act
required the Board to adjust the
penalties for the catch-up adjustment
through an interim final rulemaking to
take effect no later than August 1, 2016.
IBC also expressed concern with many
of the new maximum penalty amounts,
urging the Board to exercise its
discretion to ‘‘withhold using its
maximum penalty authority.’’ Again, as
IBC acknowledged, the Board calculated
the new penalty amounts strictly in
accordance with the 2015 Act and
OMB’s implementing guidance.
Moreover, setting the new upper limits
on penalties does not require the Board
in any particular case to assess the
maximum amounts.
Administrative Procedure Act
The 2015 Act states that agencies
shall make the annual adjustment

Memorandum M–17–11, Implementation
of the 2017 Annual Adjustment Pursuant to the
Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
Improvements Act of 2015 (Dec. 16, 2016).
5 Under the 2015 Act and implementing OMB
guidance, agencies are not required to make an
adjustment to a CMP if, during the 12 months
preceding the required adjustment, such penalty
increased due to a law other than the 2015 Act by
an amount greater than the amount of the required
adjustment. No other laws have adjusted the CMPs
within the Board’s jurisdiction during the preceding
12 months.

Regulatory Flexibility Act
Authority and Issuance
For the reasons set forth in the
preamble, the Board amends 12 CFR
part 263 to read as follows:
(a) Inflation adjustments. In
accordance with the Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
Improvements Act of 2015, which
further amended the Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of
1990, the Board has set forth in
paragraph (b) of this section the
adjusted maximum amounts for each
civil money penalty provided by law
within the Board’s jurisdiction. The
authorizing statutes contain the
complete provisions under which the
Board may seek a civil money penalty.
The adjusted civil money penalties
apply only to penalties assessed on or
after January 15, 2017, whose associated
violations occurred on or after
November 2, 2015.
(b) Maximum civil money penalties.
The maximum (or, in the cases of 12
U.S.C. 334 and 1832(c), fixed) civil
money penalties as set forth in the
referenced statutory sections are set
forth in the table in this paragraph (b).
The Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5
U.S.C. 601 et seq., requires a regulatory
flexibility analysis only for rules for
which an agency is required to publish
a general notice of proposed
rulemaking. Because the 2015 Act states
that agencies’ annual adjustments are to
be made notwithstanding section 553 of
title 5 of United States Code—the APA
section requiring notice of proposed
rulemaking—the Board is not
publishing a notice of proposed
rulemaking. Therefore, the Regulatory
Flexibility Act does not apply.
Paperwork Reduction Act
There is no collection of information
required by this final rule that would be

U.S.C. 2461 note (``FCPIA Act''), requires federal agencies to adjust,
by regulation, the CMPs within their jurisdiction to account for
inflation. The Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
Improvements Act of 2015 (the ``2015 Act'')\1\ amended the FCPIA Act to
require federal agencies to make a ``catch-up'' adjustment--the first

acknowledged, however, the 2015 Act required the Board to adjust the
penalties for the catch-up adjustment through an interim final
rulemaking to take effect no later than August 1, 2016. IBC also
expressed concern with many of the new maximum penalty amounts, urging
the Board to exercise its discretion to ``withhold using its maximum
penalty authority.'' Again, as IBC acknowledged, the Board calculated
the new penalty amounts strictly in accordance with the 2015 Act and
OMB's implementing guidance. Moreover, setting the new upper limits on
penalties does not require the Board in any particular case to assess
the maximum amounts.
Administrative Procedure Act
The 2015 Act states that agencies shall make the annual adjustment
[[Page 8361]]
``notwithstanding section 553 of title 5, United States Code.''
Therefore, this rule is not subject to the provisions of the
Administrative Procedure Act (the ``APA''), 5 U.S.C. 553, requiring
notice, public participation, and deferred effective date.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., requires a
regulatory flexibility analysis only for rules for which an agency is
required to publish a general notice of proposed rulemaking. Because
the 2015 Act states that agencies' annual adjustments are to be made
notwithstanding section 553 of title 5 of United States Code--the APA
section requiring notice of proposed rulemaking--the Board is not
publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking. Therefore, the Regulatory
Flexibility Act does not apply.
Paperwork Reduction Act
There is no collection of information required by this final rule
that would be subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.

2. Section 263.65 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 263.65 Civil money penalty inflation adjustments.
(a) Inflation adjustments. In accordance with the Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015, which
further amended the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of
1990, the Board has set forth in paragraph (b) of this section the
adjusted maximum amounts for each civil money penalty provided by law
within the Board's jurisdiction. The authorizing statutes contain the
complete provisions under which the Board may seek a civil money
penalty. The adjusted civil money penalties apply only to penalties
assessed on or after January 15, 2017, whose associated violations
occurred on or after November 2, 2015.
(b) Maximum civil money penalties. The maximum (or, in the cases of
12 U.S.C. 334 and 1832(c), fixed) civil money penalties as set forth in
the referenced statutory sections are set forth in the table in this
paragraph (b).
