AGENCIES: Office of the Comptroller of
the Currency, Treasury; Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve
System; Federal Deposit Insurance

Supervision, Treasury.
ACTION: Joint notice and request for
comment; extension of comment period.
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
chapter 35), the OCC, the Board, the
FDIC, and the OTS (collectively, the
agencies) may not conduct or sponsor,
and the respondent is not required to
respond to, an information collection
unless it displays a currently valid
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) control number. The Federal
Financial Institutions Examination
Council (FFIEC), of which the agencies
are members, approved the agencies’
publication for public comment of
proposed new regulatory reporting
requirements for banks 1 that qualify for
and adopt the Advanced Capital
Adequacy Framework to calculate their
risk-based capital requirement or banks
that are in the parallel run stage of
qualifying to adopt this proposed
framework. This notice extends the
comment period on this document for
consistency with the extension of the
comment period for the notice of
proposed rulemaking on the Advanced
Capital Adequacy Framework, as
published elsewhere in today’s issue of
the Federal Register.
DATES: The comment period for the joint
notice and request for comment
published at 71 FR 55981 (Sept. 25,
2006) is extended until March 26, 2007.

by any of the methods identified in the
joint notice on Proposed Agency

71 FR 55981, September 25, 2006.)

further information about the proposed
regulatory reporting requirements
discussed in this notice, please contact

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
September 25, 2006, the agencies
published a joint notice and request for
comment on the proposed reporting
requirements (71 FR 55981).
Simultaneously with publication of the
information collection notice, the
agencies published a proposed rule
seeking comment on the Advanced
Capital Adequacy Framework (Basel II
NPR) (71 FR 55830). The comment
period on the information collection
notice and the Basel II NPR ends on
January 23, 2007. Elsewhere in today’s
issue of the Federal Register, the
agencies extended the comment period
for the Basel II NPR. The agencies have
determined that an extension of the
comment period on the information
collection notice is appropriate for
consistency. At the end of the comment
period, the comments and
recommendations received will be
analyzed to determine the extent to
which the FFIEC should modify the
proposed reporting requirements prior
to giving its final approval. The agencies
will then submit the proposed reporting
requirements to OMB for review and
approval and, upon approval, OMB will
assign control numbers.
