Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 11199-11201 [2018-05112]

Download as PDF daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 50 / Wednesday, March 14, 2018 / Notices issue a Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff’s issuance of the EA for this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission’s public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and state agencies of the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff’s EA. There are two ways to become involved in the Commission’s review of this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or before the comment date stated below file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must submit seven copies of filings made in the proceeding with the Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other party. Only parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders in the proceeding. However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. The Commission will consider these comments in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission’s rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly involved in the protest. Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of this VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:17 Mar 13, 2018 Jkt 244001 project should submit an original and two copies of their comments to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be placed on the Commission’s environmental mailing list, will receive copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings associated with the Commission’s environmental review process. Environmental commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors will not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court review of the Commission’s final order. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the eFiling link at https://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an original and 7 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426.

Generally, the Regulation E disclosures are designed to ensure consumers receive adequate disclosure of basic terms, costs, and rights relating to electronic fund transfer (EFT) services provided to them so that they can make informed decisions. Institutions offering EFT services must disclose to consumers certain information, including: Initial and updated EFT terms, transaction information, the consumer’s potential liability for unauthorized transfers, and error resolution rights and procedures. Like Regulation E, Regulation CC has consumer protection disclosure requirements. Specifically, Regulation CC requires depository institutions to make funds deposited in transaction accounts available within specified time periods, disclose their availability policies to customers, and begin accruing interest on such deposits promptly. The disclosures are intended to alert customers that their ability to use deposited funds may be delayed, prevent unintentional (and costly) overdrafts, and allow customers to compare the policies of different institutions before deciding at which institution to deposit funds. Depository institutions must also provide an awareness disclosure regarding substitute checks. The regulation also requires notice to the depositary bank and to a customer of nonpayment of a check. Regulation DD also has similar consumer protection disclosure requirements that are intended to assist consumers in comparing deposit accounts offered by institutions, principally through the disclosure of fees, the annual percentage yield, and other account terms. Regulation DD requires depository institutions to disclose yields, fees, and other terms concerning deposit accounts to consumers at account opening, upon request, and when changes in terms occur. Depository institutions that provide periodic statements are required to include information about fees imposed, interest earned, and the annual percentage yield (APY) earned during those statement periods. It also contains rules about advertising deposit accounts. There is no change in the method or substance of the collection. The overall reduction in burden hours is the result of economic fluctuation and the reduced number of FDIC-supervised institutions since the last submission in 2014. In particular, the number of respondents has decreased while the hours per response and frequency of responses have remained the same. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:17 Mar 13, 2018 Jkt 244001 Request for Comment DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC’s functions, including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection, 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 information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All comments will become a matter of public record. GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION Dated at Washington, DC, on March 9, 2018. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Robert E.

    General Description of Collection: Regulations E & DD (Consumer 
Financial Protection Bureau's Regulations) and Regulation CC (the 
Federal Reserve's Regulation) ensure adequate disclosures regarding 
accounts, including electronic fund transfer services, availability of 
funds, and fees and annual percentage yield for

[[Page 11201]]

deposit accounts. Generally, the Regulation E disclosures are designed 
to ensure consumers receive adequate disclosure of basic terms, costs, 
and rights relating to electronic fund transfer (EFT) services provided 
to them so that they can make informed decisions. Institutions offering 
EFT services must disclose to consumers certain information, including: 
Initial and updated EFT terms, transaction information, the consumer's 
potential liability for unauthorized transfers, and error resolution 
rights and procedures.
    Like Regulation E, Regulation CC has consumer protection disclosure 
requirements. Specifically, Regulation CC requires depository 
institutions to make funds deposited in transaction accounts available 
within specified time periods, disclose their availability policies to 
customers, and begin accruing interest on such deposits promptly. The 
disclosures are intended to alert customers that their ability to use 
deposited funds may be delayed, prevent unintentional (and costly) 
overdrafts, and allow customers to compare the policies of different 
institutions before deciding at which institution to deposit funds. 
Depository institutions must also provide an awareness disclosure 
regarding substitute checks. The regulation also requires notice to the 
depositary bank and to a customer of nonpayment of a check.
    Regulation DD also has similar consumer protection disclosure 
requirements that are intended to assist consumers in comparing deposit 
accounts offered by institutions, principally through the disclosure of 
fees, the annual percentage yield, and other account terms. Regulation 
DD requires depository institutions to disclose yields, fees, and other 
terms concerning deposit accounts to consumers at account opening, upon 
request, and when changes in terms occur. Depository institutions that 
provide periodic statements are required to include information about 
fees imposed, interest earned, and the annual percentage yield (APY) 
earned during those statement periods. It also contains rules about 
advertising deposit accounts.
    There is no change in the method or substance of the collection. 
The overall reduction in burden hours is the result of economic 
fluctuation and the reduced number of FDIC-supervised institutions 
since the last submission in 2014. In particular, the number of 
respondents has decreased while the hours per response and frequency of 
responses have remained the same.

Request for Comment

    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information 
is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions, 
including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection, 
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 
information on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All 
comments will become a matter of public record.
