Proposal To Approve Under OMB
Delegated Authority the Extension for
Three Years, Without Revision, of the
Following Report
Report title: Notifications Related to
Community Development and Public
Welfare Investments of State Member
Banks.
Agency form number: FR H–6.
OMB control number: 7100–0278.
Frequency: Event-generated.
Respondents: State member banks.
Estimated number of respondents:
Post Notification, 20; Application (Prior
Approval), 71; and Extension of
divestiture period, 1.
Estimated average hours per response:
Post Notification, 2 hours; Application
(Prior Approval) 5 hours; and Extension
of divestiture period, 5 hours.
Estimated annual burden hours: Post
Notification, 40 hours; Application
(Prior Approval) 355 hours; and
Extension of divestiture period, 5 hours.
General Description of Report:
Regulation H requires state member
banks planning to make community
development or public welfare
investments to comply with the
Regulation H notification requirements:
(1) If the investment does not require
prior Board approval, a written notice
must be sent to the appropriate Federal
Reserve Bank; (2) if certain criteria are
not met, and the investment requires
prior Board approval, a request for
PO 00000
Frm 00034
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
approval must be sent to the appropriate
Federal Reserve Bank; and, (3) if the
Board orders divestiture, but the bank
cannot divest within the established
time limit, a request or requests for
extension of the divestiture period must
be submitted to the appropriate Federal
Reserve Bank.
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The Board’s Legal
Division has determined that the public
welfare investment notice, request for
approval, and request for extension of
the divestiture period are authorized by
the Federal Reserve Act, (12 U.S.C.
338a), and by the Board’s Regulation H,
(12 CFR 208.22). The obligation of state
member banks to make public welfare
investments under both the Reserve
Bank post-notice and the Board’s prior
approval procedure is mandatory. The
request for extension of the divestiture
period is required to obtain a benefit.
Individual respondent data generally are
not regarded as confidential. However, a
bank that submits confidential
proprietary information may request
confidential treatment of that
information pursuant to section (b)(4) of
the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
(5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)). Such a
determination would be made on a caseby-case basis in response to a specific
request for disclosure. If examination
ratings are included in a submission,
those will be considered confidential
under exemption 8 of the FOIA, (5
U.S.C. 552(b)(8)).
Consultation outside the agency:
Given that most community
development entities obtain funding
from a variety of local and regional
financial institutions, Board staff
consults with other agencies’ staff to
discuss applications relating to such
investments, as appropriate.
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, August 8, 2017.

General Description of Report: Regulation H requires state member

Legal authorization and confidentiality: The Board's Legal Division
has determined that the public welfare investment notice, request for

authorized by the Federal Reserve Act, (12 U.S.C. 338a), and by the
Board's Regulation H, (12 CFR 208.22). The obligation of state member
banks to make public welfare investments under both the Reserve Bank
post-notice and the Board's prior approval procedure is mandatory. The
request for extension of the divestiture period is required to obtain a
benefit. Individual respondent data generally are not regarded as
confidential. However, a bank that submits confidential proprietary
information may request confidential treatment of that information
pursuant to section (b)(4) of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (5
