Federal Government Participation in the Automated Clearing House;
Notice of Extension of Time for Comments
AGENCY: Financial Management Service, Fiscal Service, Treasury.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking; Extension of Time for Comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On September 30, 1994, the Financial Management Service issued
a notice of proposed rulemaking that proposes to revise the regulations
defining the responsibilities and liabilities of the Federal
Government, Federal Reserve Banks, financial institutions, Receivers,
and Originators doing business with the Government through the
Automated Clearing House (ACH) system. (59 FR 50112). The revisions are
intended to provide a regulatory basis for broader use of the ACH
system to meet the future payment, collection and information flow
needs of the Government. The revisions also are intended to bring
Government regulations more in line with financial industry rules so as
to eliminate, as much as possible, the need for the financial industry
to operate under two sets of rules for processing ACH transactions. The
date for filing comments is being extended at the request of various
interested commenters.
DATES: The date for filing comments is extended to and including
January 3, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to the Cash Management Policy and
Planning Division, Financial Management Service, U.S. Department of the
Treasury, Room 420, Liberty Center, 401 14th Street, S.W., Washington,
DC 20227. Attention: Berenice Reed. Please note that the room number
has been changed, and a name has been added.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Berenice Reed (202) 874-6799 (Program Analyst); John Galligan (202)
874-6657 (Director, Cash Management Policy and Planning Division); or
Margaret Roy (Principal Attorney) (202) 874-6680. Please note the
additional contact person, and new telephone number for John Galligan.
Dated: November 16, 1994.

Acting Commissioner.
