What impact, positive or negative, do you anticipate this future examination program strategy will have on your credit union and its operation? 15. Will moving offsite create any noticeable change in credit unions’ ability to provide services to members, particularly during major disruptions, like pandemics? 16. Are there resiliency tests that can be performed by examiners offsite that could not be performed when examiners are onsite? If so, please detail them. 17. If rebuilding the examination process from scratch, how might you redesign what is currently done today in order to reduce the burden on credit unions and/or minimize time that examiners need to be onsite at credit unions? 18. What new or emerging technologies could enable the NCUA to examine a credit union with less time onsite? 19. Are video and telecommunications capabilities sufficient to maintain good lines of communication between examiners and credit union management and officials with reduced in-person meeting opportunities? What other methods of communication or communication protocols would support quality communications between the credit union and examination staff? 20. What types of artificial intelligence and/or machine learning techniques are you currently using or anticipate using? 21. Does the NCUA have regulations/ policies that are sufficiently flexible to allow you to leverage various technological advances such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, process robotics, Fintech, Regtech, and Suptech etc.? 22. Do the current regulations/policies create unnecessary hurdles or burdens with respect to adopting technology? Are there ways we can update our regulations/policies to help facilitate a greater use of technology? 23.

What issues are unique to smaller institutions regarding the use and implementation of innovative products, services, or processes that the NCUA should consider? Additionally, by VerDate Sep<11>2014 01:53 Jul 01, 2020 Jkt 250001 moving to an offsite exam posture, will this negatively affect small credit unions that may not have the technology required to transmit requested documentation?

Additionally, are there better ways for the NCUA to use technology to help low-income designated credit unions and minority depository institutions to better serve their members? 27. Do you feel there are circumstances that would disqualify or preclude a credit union from participating in this examination model where the majority of work is completed offsite? 28.

ACTION: License amendment request; opportunity to comment, request a hearing, and petition for leave to intervene; order imposing procedures. AGENCY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) received and is considering approval of an amendment to Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR–35, issued to Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC for the decommissioning of the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (Pilgrim). The amendment would amend the Pilgrim Physical Security Plan and amend License Condition 3.G, ‘‘Physical Protection.’’ The proposed revised Physical Security Plan would integrate the existing Physical Security Plan’s Appendix D. Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC indicated that this proposed appendix provides the SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00074 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 security requirements for the new Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation that is currently being built in the Owner Controlled Area outside of the existing Pilgrim Protected Area. According to Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC, the Security Training and Qualification Plan and the Safeguards Contingency Plan are included in the proposed revised Physical Security Plan but remain unchanged from the existing Physical Security Plan. The NRC proposes to determine that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration.
