Amendments to Hearing Procedures
On March 13, 2018, the Council
adopted amendments to the hearing
procedures, primarily to add hearings
conducted under section 117 of the
Dodd-Frank Act to the scope of the
procedures. The Council has posted the
amended hearing procedures on its
website at https://www.treasury.gov/
initiatives/fsoc/designations/Pages/
Hearing-Procedures.aspx and on https://
www.regulations.gov. Although the
amendments were effective when
adopted, the Council is requesting
comments on the procedures and may
make further amendments to reflect any
comments received.
Section 117 of the Dodd-Frank Act
applies to an entity that was a bank
holding company having total
consolidated assets equal to or greater
than $50 billion as of January 1, 2010,
that received financial assistance under
or participated in the Capital Purchase
Plan established under the Troubled
Asset Relief Program authorized by the
Emergency Economic Stabilization Act
of 2008, and to any successor entity (as
defined by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System (Board of
Governors) in consultation with the
Council) to such a bank holding
company.4 Section 117(b) of the DoddFrank Act provides that such an entity
shall, if it ceases to be a bank holding
company, be treated as a nonbank
financial company subject to
supervision by the Board of Governors
as if the Council had made a
determination under section 113 of the
Dodd-Frank Act with respect to that
entity.5 Section 117(c) of the DoddFrank Act provides that an entity may
request, in writing, an opportunity for a
written or oral hearing before the
Council to appeal its treatment as a
nonbank financial company supervised
by the Board of Governors.6
The Council amended the hearing
procedures to add hearings conducted
under section 117 of the Dodd-Frank
Act to the scope of the procedures.
Specifically, the Council amended the
definition of ‘‘petitioner’’ in section 2 of
the hearing procedures to add a
reference to entities that are appealing
their treatment pursuant to section 117
of the Dodd-Frank Act. Section 3(b) of
the hearing procedures was amended to
provide that a petitioner that is
appealing its treatment pursuant to
section 117 may request a hearing by
submitting a written request to the
Chairperson of the Council. Section
5(b)(3)(ii) of the hearing procedures was

amended to provide that any petitioner,
including a petitioner appealing its
treatment pursuant to section 117 of the
Dodd-Frank Act, may submit additional
written materials to supplement any
materials presented during an oral
hearing not later than 7 days after the
date of that hearing. A new paragraph
(4) was added to section 5(b) to provide
that, in cases where an oral hearing is
held under section 113 or 117 of the
Dodd-Frank Act, the date of the hearing
shall be deemed to be the date on which
the Council has received any
supplemental materials that are timely
submitted after the oral hearing. The
definition of ‘‘hearing date’’ in section 2
was accordingly deleted as unnecessary.
To reflect the addition of hearings
conducted under section 117 of the
Dodd-Frank Act to the scope of the
procedures, conforming changes were
made to sections 1(a) and (b) (regarding
the authority for and scope of the
procedures); section 4(b) (regarding the
submission of written materials); section
7 (regarding the denial and dismissal of
a hearing); and section 8(a) (providing
that the substantive standards for
Council review of petitions is not
affected by the hearing procedures).
Finally, the Council made certain
non-substantive or technical changes to
update the hearing procedures.
Specifically, the definitions of
‘‘hearing’’ and ‘‘oral hearing’’ in section
2 were deleted as unnecessary. Section
5(c)(2) was amended to clarify that, even
when the Council determines to
conduct an oral hearing through
representatives, each member of the
Council is entitled to participate in the
oral hearing in lieu of appointing a
representative. The former section
5(d)(1), providing that if the Council
grants a request for an oral hearing, the
hearing shall be conducted through both
the submission of written materials and
an oral hearing, was omitted from the
hearing procedures as redundant with
other provisions in the procedures. The
former section 5(d)(2), providing for the
conduct of an oral hearing, was
redesignated as section 5(c)(3) and
amended to add, consistent with the
Council’s past practice, that the
Chairperson of the Council, his
representative, or the Hearing Clerk (as
defined in the procedures) will preside
at an oral hearing. Section 5(e),
regarding transcripts of oral hearings,
was redesignated as section 5(d) and
amended to remove the reference to the
petitioner’s right to ‘‘inspect’’ a
transcript or other recording of the oral
argument, leaving the reference to the
petitioner’s right to receive a copy of the
transcript or other recording and to
submit corrections.

SUMMARY:
Abstract: The Office of Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion
(ODPHP) is focused on developing and
disseminating health information to the
public. ODPHP faces an increasingly
urgent interest in finding effective ways
to communicate health information to
America’s diverse population. ODPHP
strives to be responsive to the needs of
America’s diverse audiences while
simultaneously serving all Americans
across a range of channels, from print to
new communication technologies. To
carry out prevention information efforts,
ODPHP is committed to conducting
formative and usability research to
provide guidance on the development
and implementation of their
communication and education efforts.
The information collected will be used
to improve communication, products,
and services that support key office
activities including: Healthy People,
Dietary Guidelines for Americans,
Physical Activity Guidelines for
Americans, healthfinder.gov, and
increasing health care quality and
patient safety. ODPHP communicates
through its websites
(www.healthfinder.gov ,
www.HealthyPeople.gov,
www.health.gov) and through other
channels including social media, print
materials, interactive training modules,
and reports. This request builds on
previous formative research approaches
to place more emphasis on Web-based
data collection to allow greater
geographical diversity among
respondents, to decrease respondent
burden, and to save government costs.
Data collection will be qualitative and
quantitative and may include in-depth
interviews, focus groups, web-based
surveys, omnibus surveys, card sorting,
and various forms of usability testing of
materials and interactive tools to assess
the public’s understanding of disease
prevention and health promotion
content, responses to prototype
materials, and barriers to effective use.
The program is requesting a 3-year
clearance.
Likely Respondents: Respondents are
likely to be either consumers or health
professionals.
