Transportation conformity is required
by Clean Air Act section 176(c). The
EPA’s conformity rule requires that
transportation plans, transportation
improvement programs, and
transportation projects conform to a
state’s SIP and establishes the criteria
and procedures for determining whether
or not they conform. Conformity to a SIP
means that transportation activities will
not produce new air quality violations,
worsen existing violations, or delay
timely attainment of the national
ambient air quality standards.
The criteria we use to determine
whether a SIP’s motor vehicle emissions
budgets are adequate for conformity
purposes are outlined in 40 CFR
93.118(e)(4), promulgated on August 15,
1997.3 We further described our process
for determining the adequacy of
submitted SIP budgets in our final rule
dated July 1, 2004,4 and we used the
information in these resources in
making our adequacy determination.
Please note that an adequacy review is
separate from the EPA’s completeness
review and does not prejudge the EPA’s
ultimate action on the SIP submittal.
Even if we find a budget adequate, the
SIP submittal could later be
disapproved. Pursuant to 40 CFR
93.104(e), SCAG and the U.S.
Department of Transportation will need
to demonstrate conformity to the new
budgets within two years of the effective
date of this notice.5 For demonstrating
conformity to the new budgets, the onroad motor vehicle emissions from
implementation of the transportation
plan or program for the area should be

Proposal Under OMB Delegated
Authority To Extend for Three Years,
With Revision, the Following
Information Collection
Collection title: Financial Statements
for Holding Companies.
Collection identifier: FR Y–9 reports.
OMB control number: 7100–0128.
General description of collection: The
Board requires bank holding companies
(BHCs), most savings and loan holding
companies (SLHCs), securities holding
companies, and U.S. intermediate
holding companies (IHCs) (collectively,
HCs) to provide standardized financial
statements through one or more of the
FR Y–9 reports. The information
collected on the FR Y–9 reports is
necessary for the Board to identify
emerging financial risks and monitor the
safety and soundness of HC operations.
The FR Y–9C consists of standardized
financial statements for HCs similar to
the Call Reports filed by commercial
banks. The FR Y–9C collects
consolidated data and is filed quarterly
by top-tier HCs with total consolidated
assets of $3 billion or more.
The FR Y–9LP, which collects parent
company only financial data, must be
submitted quarterly by each HC that
files the FR Y–9C, as well as by each of
its subsidiary HCs. The report consists
of standardized financial statements,
including the following schedules:
Income Statement, Cash Flow
Statement, Balance Sheet, Investments
in Subsidiaries and Associated
Companies, Memoranda, and Notes to
the Parent Company Only Financial
Statements.
The FR Y–9SP is a parent company
only financial statement filed
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:59 Mar 27, 2023
Jkt 259001
semiannually by HCs with total
consolidated assets of less than $3
billion. In a banking organization with
total consolidated assets of less than $3
billion that has tiered HCs, each HC in
the organization must submit, or have
the top-tier HC submit on its behalf, a
separate FR Y–9SP. This report collects
basic balance sheet and income data for
the parent company, as well as data on
its intangible assets and intercompany
transactions.
The FR Y–9ES is filed annually by
each employee stock ownership plan
(ESOP) that is also an HC. The report
collects financial data on the ESOP’s
benefit plan activities. The FR Y–9ES
consists of four schedules: Statement of
Changes in Net Assets Available for
Benefits, Statement of Net Assets
Available for Benefits, Memoranda, and
Notes to the Financial Statements.
The instructions to each of the FR Y–
9C, FR Y–9LP, FR Y–9SP, and FR Y–
9ES state that respondent HCs should
retain workpapers and other records
used in the preparation of the reports for
a period of three years following
submission. In addition, HCs must
maintain in their files a manually signed
and attested printout of the data
submitted under each form for a period
of three years.
The FR Y–9CS is a voluntary, freeform supplemental report that the Board
may utilize to collect critical additional
data deemed to be needed from HCs in
an expedited manner. The FR Y–9CS
data collections are used to assess and
monitor emerging issues related to HCs,
and the report is intended to
supplement the other FR Y–9 reports.
The data requested by the FR Y–9CS
would depend on the Board’s data
needs in any given situation. For
example, changes made by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board may
introduce into generally accepted
accounting principles new data items
that are not currently collected by the
other FR Y–9 reports. The Board could
use the FR Y–9CS report to collect these
data until the items are implemented
into the other FR Y–9 reports.
Proposed revisions: The Board
proposes to revise the Consolidated
Financial Statements for Holding
Companies (FR Y–9C) to eliminate and
consolidate certain items from the
reporting forms and instructions for
burden-reduction purposes and to
correspond with proposed revisions to
the Federal Financial Institutions
Examination Council (FFIEC)
Consolidated Reports of Condition and
Income (Call Reports) (FFIEC 031,
FFIEC 041, and FFIEC 051) related to a
statutorily mandated review.
Additionally, the proposal would seek

public comment on previously made
clarifications to FR Y–9C reporting
instructions related to reporting
securitizations conducted by Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
(FHLMC, also known as Freddie Mac).
All of the proposed changes to the FR
Y–9C would take effect as of the June
30, 2023, report date. There are no
proposed revisions at this time for the
FR Y–9LP, FR Y–9SP, FR Y–9ES, or FR

Proposal Under OMB Delegated Authority To Extend for Three Years, With
Revision, the Following Information Collection
Collection title: Financial Statements for Holding Companies.
Collection identifier: FR Y-9 reports.
OMB control number: 7100-0128.
General description of collection: The Board requires bank holding

The FR Y-9C consists of standardized financial statements for HCs

total consolidated assets of $3 billion or more.
The FR Y-9LP, which collects parent company only financial data,

as by each of its subsidiary HCs. The report consists of standardized
financial statements, including the following schedules: Income
Statement, Cash Flow Statement, Balance Sheet, Investments in
Subsidiaries and Associated Companies, Memoranda, and Notes to the
Parent Company Only Financial Statements.
The FR Y-9SP is a parent company only financial statement filed
semiannually by HCs with total consolidated assets of less than $3
billion. In a banking organization with total consolidated assets of
less than $3 billion that has tiered HCs, each HC in the organization
must submit, or have the top-tier HC submit on its behalf, a separate
FR Y-9SP. This report collects basic balance sheet and income data for
the parent company, as well as data on its intangible assets and
intercompany transactions.
The FR Y-9ES is filed annually by each employee stock ownership
plan (ESOP) that is also an HC. The report collects financial data on
the ESOP's benefit plan activities. The FR Y-9ES consists of four
schedules: Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits,
Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits, Memoranda, and Notes to
the Financial Statements.
The instructions to each of the FR Y-9C, FR Y-9LP, FR Y-9SP, and FR
Y-9ES state that respondent HCs should retain workpapers and other
records used in the preparation of the reports for a period of three
years following submission. In addition, HCs must maintain in their

The FR Y-9CS is a voluntary, free-form supplemental report that the

are used to assess and monitor emerging issues related to HCs, and the
report is intended to supplement the other FR Y-9 reports. The data
requested by the FR Y-9CS would depend on the Board's data needs in any
given situation. For example, changes made by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board may introduce into generally accepted accounting
principles new data items that are not currently collected by the other
FR Y-9 reports. The Board could use the FR Y-9CS report to collect
these data until the items are implemented into the other FR Y-9
reports.
Proposed revisions: The Board proposes to revise the Consolidated
Financial Statements for Holding Companies (FR Y-9C) to eliminate and
consolidate certain items from the reporting forms and instructions for
burden-reduction purposes and to correspond with proposed revisions to
the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC)
Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Reports) (FFIEC 031,

Additionally, the proposal would seek public comment on previously made
