In that interim final rule, Federal awarding agencies, including the Council, joined together to implement the Uniform Guidance in their respective chapters of title 2 of the CFR, and, where approved by the Office of OMB, implemented any exceptions to the Uniform Guidance by including the relevant language in their regulations. The intent of this effort was to simultaneously reduce administrative burden and the risk of waste, fraud, and abuse while delivering better performance. Implementation of the Uniform Guidance became effective on December 26, 2014 (79 FR 75867, tkelley on DSKBCP9HB2PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:26 Jan 07, 2021 Jkt 253001 List of Subjects in 2 CFR Part 5900 Accounting, Administrative practice and procedure, Grant programs, Grants administration.

ACTION: Final rule; correction. AGENCY: On December 11, 2020, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) published in the Federal Register a final rule that revises its regulations relating to policies and procedures for corporate activities and transactions involving national banks and Federal savings associations to update and clarify the policies and procedures, eliminate unnecessary tkelley on DSKBCP9HB2PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:26 Jan 07, 2021 Jkt 253001 requirements consistent with safety and soundness, and make other technical and conforming changes. This correcting amendment supplements the Effective Date discussion in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of the final rule as it appeared in the Federal Register. It also makes three technical changes to the regulatory text of the final rule that appeared in the Federal Register to correct typographical errors. This correction is effective January 11, 2021. DATES: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Heidi M. Thomas, Special Counsel, Chief Counsel’s Office, (202) 649–5490, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, 400 7th Street SW, Washington, DC 20219. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background and Description of Correcting Amendment On December 11, 2020, the OCC published in the Federal Register a final rule that revises its regulations relating to policies and procedures for corporate activities and transactions involving national banks and Federal savings associations to update and clarify the policies and procedures, eliminate unnecessary requirements consistent with safety and soundness, and make other technical and conforming changes.1 This correcting amendment adds a paragraph to the Effective Date discussion in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of the final rule that was inadvertently omitted. This paragraph describes the OCC’s good cause determination that the quarterly effective date requirement of section 302(b) of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 (RCDRIA) (12 U.S.C. 4802(b)) does not apply to the final rule. This correcting amendment also makes three technical changes to the regulatory text of the final rule. First, it adds a missing comma to the cross reference to 12 U.S.C. 215(b), (e), and (f) in paragraph (g)(2)(iv) of § 5.33, Business combinations involving a national bank or Federal savings association. Second, it corrects the paragraph designations in paragraph (g) of § 5.58, Pass-through investments by a Federal savings association. Third, it removes the superfluous word ‘‘to’’ in redesignated paragraph (g)(1) of § 5.58. These last three changes correct typographical errors and do not substantively change the meaning of these provisions. 1 85 PO 00000 FR 80404. Frm 00002 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 II. Administrative Law Matters A. Administrative Procedure Act The OCC is issuing this correcting amendment without prior notice and the opportunity for public comment ordinarily prescribed by the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).2 Pursuant to section 553(b)(B) of the APA, general notice and the opportunity for public comment are not required with respect to a rulemaking when an agency for good cause finds (and incorporates the finding and a brief statement of reasons therefor in the rules issued) that notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.3 The OCC finds that public notice and comment are unnecessary because this correcting amendment makes technical changes to correct typographical errors in the final rule. Therefore, the OCC believes it has good cause to dispense with the APA prior notice and public comment process. The OCC also is issuing this correcting amendment without the delayed effective date ordinarily prescribed by the APA. The APA requires a 30-day delayed effective date, except for: (1) Substantive rules which grant or recognize an exemption or relieve a restriction; (2) interpretative rules and statements of policy; or (3) as otherwise provided by the agency for good cause.4 Because this correcting amendment makes technical changes to correct typographical errors in the final rule, the OCC believes it has good cause to issue this correcting amendment without a delayed effective date. B. Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act Pursuant to section 302(a) of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act (RCDRIA),5 in determining the effective date and administrative compliance requirements for new regulations that impose additional reporting, disclosure, or other requirements on insured depository institutions, each Federal banking agency must consider, consistent with the principle of safety and soundness and the public interest, any administrative burdens that such regulations would place on depository institutions, including small depository institutions, and customers of depository institutions, as well as the benefits of such regulations.
