SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PHMSA
received a special permit request from

four segments totaling 4.65 miles, of 30inch diameter Index 130 pipeline,

located in Ascension and Livingston
Parishes, Louisiana, where the class
location has changed from a Class 1 to
Class 3 location. In lieu of pipe
replacement, GSPC seeks permission to
perform alternative risk control
activities based on integrity
management program principles and
requirements. Due to class location
changes from a Class 1 to Class 3 in the
1990s, GSPC lowered the maximum
allowable operating pressure as required
by § 192.611, from 936 pounds per
square inch gauge (psig) to 780 psig.
However, GSPC now seeks to uprate the
line to restore the previous MAOP,
using Subpart K of § 192.555.
The special permit request provided
by the operator includes a draft
environmental assessment, (EA),
proposed special permit conditions, and
location map. These documents are filed
at https://www.Regulations.gov, in
Docket No. PHMSA–2018–0099. We
invite interested persons to participate
by reviewing the special permit
documents and draft EA at https://
www.Regulations.gov, and by
submitting written comments, data or
other views. Please include any
comments on potential safety and
environmental impacts that may result
if the special permit is granted.
Before issuing a decision on the
special permit request, PHMSA will
evaluate all comments received on or
before the comment closing date.
Comments received after the comment
closing date will be evaluated if it is
possible to do so without incurring
additional expense or delay. PHMSA
will consider each relevant comment we
receive in making our decision to grant
or deny a request.
Issued in Washington, DC on November 29,
2018, under authority delegated in 49 CFR
1.97.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44
U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal agencies
must obtain approval from the OMB for
each collection of information that they
conduct or sponsor. ‘‘Collection of
information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C.
3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to include
agency requests or requirements that
members of the public submit reports,
keep records, or provide information to
a third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
title 44 requires federal agencies to
provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed
collection of information, including
each proposed extension of an existing
collection of information, before
submitting the collection to OMB for
approval. To comply with this
requirement, the OCC is publishing
notice of the renewal of the collection
of information set forth in this
document.
Title: Annual Stress Test Rule.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0311.
Description: Section 165(i)(2) of the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act requires
certain financial companies, including
national banks and federal savings
associations, to conduct annual stress
tests 2 and requires the primary financial
regulatory agency 3 of those financial
companies to issue regulations
implementing the stress test
requirements.4
Twelve CFR 46.6(a) specifies the
calculations of the potential impact on
capital that must be made during each
quarter of a planning horizon. Section
46.6(c)(1) requires the senior
management of each covered institution
to establish and maintain a system of
controls, oversight, and documentation,
including policies and procedures that,
at a minimum, describe the covered
institution’s stress test practices and
methodologies and processes for
updating the covered institution’s stress
test practices. Section 46.6(c)(2)
provides that the board of directors of
the covered institution shall approve
and review these policies and
procedures no less than annually and
provide the board of directors and
senior management with a summary of
the stress test results.
Section 46.7 provides that each
covered institution shall report to the
OCC and to the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System annually the
results of the stress test in the time,
manner and form specified by the OCC.
Section 46.8 requires that a covered
institution publish a summary of the
results of its annual stress tests on its
website or in any other forum that is
reasonably accessible to the public. The
summary must include a description of
the types of risks included in the stress
test, a summary description of the
methodologies used in the stress test,
estimates of aggregate losses, preprovision net revenue, provisions for
loan and lease losses, net income, and
pro forma capital ratios and an
explanation of the most significant
causes of the changes in regulatory
capital ratios. The summary also must
reflect, for estimates of aggregate losses,
pre-provision net revenue, provisions
for loan and lease losses, the estimated
cumulative effects and estimated capital
ratios, net income, and pro forma capital
ratios (including regulatory and any
other capital ratios specified by the
OCC) at the end of the planning horizon,
under the severely adverse scenario.
Type of Review: Regular.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit.
