Delay of Effective Date of the Risk-Based Capital Rules
The NCUA Board (Board) is seeking comment on a proposed rule that would delay the effective date of the NCUA's October 29, 2015 final rule regarding risk-based capital (2015 Final Rule), and the NCUA's November 6, 2018 supplemental final rule regarding risk-based capital (2018 Supplemental Rule), moving the effective date of both rules to January 1, 2022. This proposed delay would allow the NCUA Board additional time to holistically and comprehensively evaluate capital standards for federally insured credit unions. The proposed delay would also provide covered credit unions and the NCUA with additional time to prepare for the rule's implementation. During the extended delay period, the NCUA's current Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) requirements would remain in effect.

In the Matter of Exelon Generation Company, LLC, Oyster Creek Environmental Protection, LLC, Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC, Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing an order approving the direct transfer of Renewed Facility Operating License No. DPR-16 for Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station (Oyster Creek), and its general license for the Oyster Creek Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI), from the currently licensed operator and licensed owner, Exelon Generating Company, LLC, to Oyster Creek Environmental Protection, LLC (OCEP), as owner, and to Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC (HDI), as operator. The NRC is also issuing a conforming amendment for the facility operating license for administrative purposes to reflect the approved license transfer. The NRC confirmed that OCEP and HDI met the regulatory, legal, technical, and financial obligations necessary to qualify them as a transferee and determined that the transferees are qualified to be the holder of the license; and the transfer of the license is otherwise consistent with the applicable provisions of law, regulations, and orders issued by the Commission.

Concept Release on Harmonization of Securities Offering Exemptions
The Securities and Exchange Commission is publishing this release to solicit comment on several exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 that facilitate capital raising. Over the years, and particularly since the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, several exemptions from registration have been introduced, expanded, or otherwise revised. As a result, the overall framework for exempt offerings has changed significantly. We believe our capital markets would benefit from a comprehensive review of the design and scope of our framework for offerings that are exempt from registration. More specifically, we also believe that issuers and investors could benefit from a framework that is more consistent and addresses gaps and complexities. Therefore, we seek comment on possible ways to simplify, harmonize, and improve the exempt offering framework to promote capital formation and expand investment opportunities while maintaining appropriate investor protections.
