Download as PDF 42119 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 161 / Monday, August 20, 2018 / Notices indicated in written notice from EPA following EPA’s web posting of the submitted NOI. Other Legal Requirements: In accordance with the Endangered Species Act (ESA), EPA has updated the provisions and necessary actions and documentation related to potential impacts to endangered species from sites seeking coverage under the General Permit. Concurrently with the public notice of the Draft HYDROGP, EPA has submitted a letter to National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) summarizing the results of EPA’s assessment of the potential effects to endangered and threatened species and their critical habitats as a result of EPA’s reissuance of the HYDROGP. In this document, EPA has concluded that the proposed reissuance of the HYDROGP is not likely to adversely affect (NLAA) the shortnose sturgeon, Atlantic sturgeon, or designated critical habitat for Atlantic sturgeon. EPA has requested that NMFS review this submittal and inform EPA whether it concurs with this preliminary finding. In the Fact Sheet accompanying the Draft HYDROGP, EPA seeks concurrence from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) regarding our determination of effect on endangered species under its jurisdiction. Based on other General Permit proceedings, EPA has tentatively determined that the Draft HYDROGP will have ‘‘no effect.’’ The reason for this determination is because each NOI that is submitted must assess site specific endangered species impacts using USFWS’ Information, Planning, and Conservation (IPaC) website, available at https://ecos.fws.gov/ipac/. By using this website, the applicant can either make a determination of impacts or if there are questions, seek input from USFWS directly. Since each NOI is individually screened prior to submission, EPA has tentatively determined that the Draft HYDROGP will have ‘‘no effect.’’ National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA): In accordance with NHPA, EPA has established provisions and documentation requirements for sites seeking coverage under the General Permit to ensure that discharges or actions taken under this General Permit will not adversely affect historic properties and places. Authority: This action is being taken under the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq. Dated: July 10, 2018. Alexandra Dapolito Dunn, Regional Administrator.

Reporting .......... 500 10 minutes ........ On Occasion ..... 83 Total estimated annual burden ............................ ........................... ........................ ........................... ........................... 83 General Description of Collection: There has been no change in the method or substance of this information collection. The change in estimates annual burden is due to a decrease in estimated number of new hires from an annual average of 600 in 2015 to an annual average of 500 currently. This information collection arises from the reporting requirements contained in 12 CFR part 336, subpart B, of the FDIC Rules and Regulations entitled ‘‘Minimum Standards of Fitness for Employment with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’’. This rule implements Section 19 of the Resolution Trust Corporation Completion Act (Completion Act), Public Law 103–204, by (among other things) prescribing a certification, with attachments in some cases, relating to job applicants’ fitness and integrity. More specifically, the statute provides that the FDIC shall issue regulations implementing provisions that prohibit any person from becoming employed by the FDIC who has been convicted of any felony; has been removed from, or prohibited from participating in the affairs of, any insured depository institution pursuant to any final enforcement action by any appropriate federal banking agency; has demonstrated a pattern or practice of defalcation regarding obligations to insured depository institutions; or has caused a substantial loss to federal deposit insurance funds. This collection of information implements these The number of PECs completed each year has been declining since 2009. If this trend were to continue, the number of respondents would be expected to continue to decrease from 369 over the next three years, which would imply that the estimated number of respondents should be lower for this collection compared to the one in 2015. The SMEs have acknowledged that 600 respondents may be a conservative estimate, but also believe that it is reasonable. This rationale stems from the fact that the current rate of bank failures is very low. The SMEs also point out that the PECs are collected from prospective purchasers and not just the winning bidders. As a result, the annual number of PECs could increase if there is an increase in the demand for the assets the FDIC sells, even if the number of assets for sale decreases in line with the current trend of diminishing bank failures. The estimated hourly burden for this PURCHASER ELIGIBILITY information collection is 30 minutes per CERTIFICATIONS (PECS) PEC form.

    General Description of Collection: There has been no change in the 
method or substance of this information collection. The change in 
estimates annual burden is due to a decrease in estimated number of new 
hires from an annual average of 600 in 2015 to an annual average of 500 
currently. This information collection arises from the reporting 
requirements contained in 12 CFR part 336, subpart B, of the FDIC Rules 
and Regulations entitled ``Minimum Standards of Fitness for Employment 
with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation''. This rule implements 
Section 19 of the Resolution Trust Corporation Completion Act 
(Completion Act), Public Law 103-204, by (among other things) 
prescribing a certification, with attachments in some cases, relating 
to job applicants' fitness and integrity. More specifically, the 
statute provides that the FDIC shall issue regulations implementing 
provisions that prohibit any person from becoming employed by the FDIC 
who has been convicted of any felony; has been removed from, or 
prohibited from participating in the affairs of, any insured depository 
institution pursuant to any final enforcement action by any appropriate 
federal banking agency; has demonstrated a pattern or practice of 
defalcation regarding obligations to insured depository institutions; 
or has caused a substantial loss to federal deposit insurance funds. 
This collection of information implements these mandatory bars to 
employment through a certification, signed by job applicants prior to 
an offer of employment using form 2120/16.
    2. Title: Purchaser Eligibility Certification.
    OMB Number: 3064-0135.
    Form Number: 7300-06
    Affected Public: Individuals and entities wishing to purchase 
receivership assets from the FDIC.
    Burden Estimate: There has been no change in the method or 
substance of this information collection. The Subject Matter Experts 
(SMEs) from the FDIC's Division of Resolutions and Receiverships have 
estimated that this information collection will affect 600 respondents 
annually for the next three years. This estimate is unchanged from 
2015. The SMEs reached this estimate by calculating the average number 
of Purchaser Eligibility Certifications (PECs) completed in the past 
three years and rounding up.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ SMEs within the FDIC's Division of Resolutions and 
Receiverships (DRR) compiled this information by contacting the

transactions, cash loan sales, other real estate sales, and

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The number of PECs completed each year has been declining since 
2009. If this trend were to continue, the number of respondents would 
be expected to continue to decrease from 369 over the next three years, 
which would imply that the estimated number of respondents should be 
lower for this collection compared to the one in 2015. The SMEs have 
acknowledged that 600 respondents may be a conservative estimate, but 
also believe that it is reasonable. This rationale stems from the fact 
that the current rate of bank failures is very low. The SMEs also point 
out that the PECs are collected from prospective purchasers and not 
just the winning bidders. As a result, the annual number of PECs could 
increase if there is an increase in the demand for the assets the FDIC 
sells, even if the number of assets for sale decreases in line with the 
current trend of diminishing bank failures.
    The estimated hourly burden for this information collection is 30 
minutes per PEC form. The SMEs have arrived at this estimate through 
their personal observations of individuals completing these forms at 
open-outcry auction events. The table below contains estimates for the 
total estimated reporting burden for this information collection.
