    End Further Info End Preamble Start Supplemental Information

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    A. Background

    NCUA continually reviews its regulations to “update, clarify and simplify existing regulations and eliminate redundant and unnecessary provisions.” NCUA Interpretive Rulings and Policy Statement (IRPS) 87-2, Developing and Reviewing Government Regulations. In 2009, NCUA internally reviewed its regulations as part of a publication process and took the opportunity to update, clarify and simplify its regulations. Based on this review, NCUA determined minor revisions to certain regulations would be helpful.

    B. Regulatory Changes

    This rule provides minor technical corrections and will not cause any regulatory changes.

    C. Regulatory Procedures

    Final Rule Under the Administrative Procedure Act

    NCUA is issuing this rulemaking as a final rule, effective upon publication. Generally, the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) requires a rulemaking to be published as a notice of proposed rulemaking with the opportunity for public comment, unless the agency for good cause finds that notice and public comment are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. 5 U.S.C. 553. NCUA believes good cause exists for issuing these amendments without notice and public comment. The amendments in this rule are not substantive but merely technical in that they make minor corrections, provide clarification or update the regulations.

    Additionally, the APA requires that a final rule must have a delayed effective date of 30 days from the date of publication, except for good cause. 5 U.S.C. 553(d). NCUA also finds good cause to waive the customary 30-day delayed effective date requirement under the APA. 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3). The rule will, therefore, be effective immediately upon publication.

    Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act requires NCUA to prepare an analysis to describe any significant economic impact a rule may have on a substantial number of small entities (primarily those credit unions under ten million dollars in assets). This rule does not impose any regulatory burden. It merely makes non-substantive technical changes to certain sections of NCUA's regulations. This rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small credit unions; thus, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required.

    Paperwork Reduction Act

    NCUA has determined that this rule will not increase paperwork requirements under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and regulations of the Office of Management and Budget.

    Executive Order 13132

    Executive Order 13132 encourages independent regulatory agencies to consider the impact of their actions on state and local interests. In adherence to fundamental federalism principles, NCUA, an independent regulatory agency as defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(5), voluntarily complies with the executive order. This rule will not have substantial direct effects on the states, on the relationship between the national government and the states, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. NCUA has determined that this rule does not constitute a policy that has federalism implications for purposes of the executive order.

    The Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act, 1999—Assessment of Federal Regulations and Policies on Families

    The NCUA has determined that this rule will not affect family well-being within the meaning of section 654 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act, 1999, Public Law 105-277, 112 Stat. 2681 (1998).

    Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act

    The Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121) (SBREFA) provides generally for congressional review of agency rules. A reporting requirement is triggered in instances where NCUA issues a final rule as defined by Section 551 of the APA. 5 U.S.C. 551. The Office of Management and Budget has determined that this rule is not a major rule for purposes of SBREFA. As required by SBREFA, NCUA will file the appropriate reports with Congress and the General Accounting Office so this rule may be reviewed.
