    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    I. Summary of the Final Rule

    This final rule makes a number of procedural and technical amendments to Regulations J and L, which implement the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act (ILSA). The final rule allows developers to choose whether to submit ILSA filings—including Statements of Record and related amendments, annual reports, and requests to suspend an effective date—on paper or via electronic means designated on the ILSA program page of the Bureau's Web site. Statements of Record submitted to the Bureau electronically in compliance with the final rule need not comply with the requirements in § 1010.102(a), (g), and (h) relating to paper type, tabs, folding, and ordering.

    The final rule removes a number of procedural filing requirements under Regulation J, including that developers submit three copies of the final Property Report and two copies of the current geological survey topographic map or maps; that developers use legal size paper for submitting certain filings; that developers submit originals of topographic maps; and that developers bind paper filings. Under the final rule, developers need only submit one copy of documents to the Bureau, may use letter size paper for paper filings, and may submit photocopies of topographic maps in lieu of originals. The final rule also permits developers to choose whether to enclose warnings in a box in the Statement of Record.

    The final rule also removes or corrects certain unnecessary and erroneous statutory and regulatory citations, without changing the substance of Regulations J and L. The final rule also updates contact information for the Bureau's Interstate Land Sales Registration Program office, reflecting changes to the Bureau's internal organization, and makes other technical changes.

    II. Background

    ILSA protects lot purchasers by requiring certain land developers to register their plans and to provide prescribed disclosures to prospective lot purchasers. Developers of subdivisions with 100 or more nonexempt lots must register their plans with the Bureau. These developers must also provide purchasers with a disclosure statement known as a Property Report before a contract of sale is signed.

    Prior to July 21, 2011, ILSA was implemented by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's) Interstate Land Sales Registration Program, 24 CFR parts 1710, 1715, and 1720. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) amended a number of consumer financial protection laws, including ILSA. In addition to various substantive amendments, the Dodd-Frank Act transferred rulemaking authority for ILSA to the Bureau, effective July 21, 2011.[1] The Bureau issued an interim final rule restating the ILSA regulations in December 2011 (Restatement). The Restatement substantially duplicated HUD's Interstate Land Sales Registration Program regulations, 24 CFR parts 1710, 1715, and 1720, making only non-substantive, technical, formatting, and stylistic changes, as the Bureau's Regulation J (Land Registration), 12 CFR part 1010; Regulation K (Purchasers' Revocation Rights, Sales Practices and Standards), 12 CFR part 1011; and Regulation L (Special Rules of Practice), 12 CFR part 1012. In April 2016, the Bureau adopted the Restatement as final without making any changes to the ILSA provisions of the interim final rule.

    III. Legal Authority

    A. Rulemaking Authority

    The Bureau is issuing this final rule pursuant to its authority under the Dodd-Frank Act and ILSA. Section 1061 of the Dodd-Frank Act transferred to the Bureau all of the HUD Secretary's consumer protection functions relating to ILSA.[2] ILSA, as amended, authorizes the Bureau's Director to make, issue, amend, and rescind such rules and regulations as are necessary or appropriate to the exercise of the Director's functions and powers under ILSA.[3] Section 1022(b)(1) of the Dodd-Frank Act also authorizes the Director to prescribe rules “as may be necessary or appropriate to enable the Bureau to administer and carry out the purposes and objectives of the Federal consumer financial laws,” including ILSA.[4]

    B. Procedural Requirements

    Under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), notice and opportunity for public comment are not required for a Start Printed Page 29112“rule[] of agency organization, procedure, or practice” or if the Bureau finds that notice and public comment are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. 5 U.S.C. 553(b). The amendments regarding electronic submission of ILSA filings and other changes to the filing process (such as number of copies required and permitting photocopies of topographic maps) relate solely to agency procedure and practice and, thus, are not subject to the APA's notice and comment requirements. The other changes made in this rulemaking delete outdated cross-references, correct typographical errors, or are similar technical amendments that merely clarify the operation of the regulation. The Bureau believes that there is minimal, if any basis, for substantive disagreement with the technical amendments. As to all of these changes, the Bureau finds that notice and comment are unnecessary.

    For these reasons, the Bureau has determined that publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking and providing opportunity for public comment are not required. Therefore, the amendments are adopted in final form. Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required, the Regulatory Flexibility Act does not require an initial or final regulatory flexibility analysis. 5 U.S.C. 601(2), 603(a), 604(a).

    IV. Section-by-Section Analysis

    A. Regulation J

    1010.1 Definitions

    1(a) Statutory Terms

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.1(a) to correct a citation to the United States Code.

    1010.4 Exemptions—General

    4(c)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.4(c) to remove a citation to a regulation that does not exist, § 1011.15(f). Prior to the Restatement, 24 CFR 1710.4(c) cited 24 CFR 1715.15(f), which implemented the requirements of 15 U.S.C. 1703(a)(2)(D). HUD eliminated § 1715.15(f) in 1996 but retained the cross-reference.[5] As part of the Restatement, the Bureau substituted § 1011.15(f) for § 1715.15(f), even though § 1011.15(f) does not exist. This technical amendment to remove the citation to § 1011.15(f) does not modify any requirements or obligations under Regulation J.

    4(e)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment that changes the name of the Bureau office designated in § 1010.4(e), to reflect changes in the internal organization of the Bureau since the Bureau issued the Restatement in 2011.

    1010.5 Statutory Exemptions

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.5 to correct two citations to the United States Code.

    1010.20 Requirements for Registering a Subdivision—Statement of Record—Filing and Form

    20(a) Filing

    Section 1010.20(a) provides filing requirements for registering a subdivision. The Bureau is amending this section to update the address to which developers should send Statements of Record because the Bureau will no longer be using a third-party contractor to receive incoming Statements of Record.

    In addition to amending the U.S. mail address, the final rule permits submission of Statements of Record via electronic means that are designated on the ILSA program page of the Bureau's Web site, www.consumerfinance.gov. The Bureau's Web site specifies uploading, file naming, and other requirements for electronic submissions. Electronic filing of Statements of Record will reduce the burden on filers and facilitate the Bureau's processing of submissions, by reducing costs spent on mailing and eliminating the time in transit for physical mailings and the time required for the Bureau to scan paper submissions. Filers may choose different submission options for each filing, only exercising the electronic option when it is beneficial. Further, the Bureau will achieve cost savings by receiving and processing filings in house rather than through a third-party contractor.

    20(b) Form

    The Bureau is amending § 1010.20(b) to clarify that electronic filings made pursuant to § 1010.20(a) are not subject to the requirements in § 1010.102(a), (g), and (h) relating to paper type, tabs, folding, and ordering for filings. The Bureau is making this change because it would be difficult or impossible for electronic filings to comply with these paper-specific requirements.

    1010.21 Effective Dates

    21(b) Suspension of Effective Date by Developer

    The Bureau is amending § 1010.21(b) to allow for submission of requests for the suspension of the effective date of a Statement of Record through the electronic means described in § 1010.20(a). The Bureau believes that permitting electronic submission of such requests will reduce the burden on filers and facilitate the Bureau's processing of submissions.

    1010.23 Amendment—Filing and Form

    23(a) Filing

    The Bureau is amending § 1010.23(a) to allow for submission of amendments to Statements of Record through the electronic means described in § 1010.20(a). The Bureau believes that permitting electronic submission of such amendments will reduce the burden on filers and facilitate the Bureau's processing of submissions.

    1010.35 Payment of Fees

    35(a) Method of Payment

    The Bureau is amending § 1010.35(a) to reflect changes in the internal organization of the Bureau and to provide contact information for the relevant Bureau office. The final rule also notes that information regarding the current mailing address or electronic payment procedures can be obtained from the ILSA program page of the Bureau's Web site at www.consumerfinance.gov.

    1010.102 General Instructions for Completing the Statement of Record

    102(a) Paper and Type

    Section 1010.102(a) currently requires the use of legal size paper for the Additional Information and Documentation portion of the Statement of Record. The Bureau is amending § 1010.102(a) to allow developers that file on paper to use either legal size or letter size paper for the Additional Information and Documentation portion of the Statement of Record. The Bureau believes that allowing this flexibility could reduce costs for both developers and the Bureau.

    102(e) Headings, Subheadings, Captions, Introductory Paragraphs, Warnings

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.102(e) to correct a reference to the location of the sample page that shows how headings and subheadings should be used in the Property Report. The Bureau is also Start Printed Page 29113removing the requirement in § 1010.102(e) that warnings be enclosed in a box and is instead making the use of the box optional for developers, in order to facilitate compliance.

    102(h) Ordering

    Section 1010.102(h) requires the Statement of Record to be bound with the Property Report on top (including any documents required to be attached when delivered to the purchaser), followed by the Additional Information and Documentation. The Bureau is amending § 1010.102(h) to remove the requirement that the Statement of Record be bound with the Property Report, while still requiring that the filing be presented in the specified order.[6] The Bureau believes allowing developers to decide whether to bind filings facilitates compliance.

    102(m) Final Version of Property Report

    Section 1010.102(m) provides general instructions relating to the final version of the Property Report and indicates that the version of the Property Report delivered to prospective lot purchasers must meet many of the same standards as those set forth in the regulations for the Statement of Record. Section 1010.102(m) requires developers to submit to the Bureau three copies of the final Property Report or, if a Property Report in a foreign language is used, three copies of the Property Report together with copies of the translated documents. The Bureau is amending § 1010.102(m) to require submission of only one copy of these documents to the Bureau. The Bureau believes that reducing the number of copies required to be filed could reduce costs for developers and for the Bureau.

    The final rule also indicates that if a developer submits a Statement of Record to the Bureau via electronic means pursuant to § 1010.20(a), the version of the Property Report delivered to prospective lot purchasers must meet the same standards that apply to a Statement of Record submitted on paper to the Bureau.

    1010.103 Developer Obligated Improvements

    (a)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.103(a) to remove one erroneous citation and replace another erroneous citation. Prior to the Restatement, 24 CFR 1710.103(a) cited 24 CFR 1715.15(f), which implemented the requirements of 15 U.S.C. 1703(a)(2)(D). As part of the Restatement, the Bureau replaced § 1715.15(f) with § 1011.15(f) in this paragraph, even though HUD had eliminated § 1715.15(f) in 1996 and § 1011.15(f) does not exist.[7] These technical amendments do not modify any requirements or obligations under Regulation J.

    1010.209 Title and Land Use

    (f) Supplemental Title Information

    (3)

    (iv) The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.209(f)(3)(iv) to remove an erroneous citation to § 1011.15(f). Prior to the Restatement, 24 CFR 1710.209(f)(3)(iv) cited 24 CFR 1715.15(f), which implemented the requirements of 15 U.S.C. 1703(a)(2)(D). As part of the Restatement, the Bureau replaced § 1715.15(f) with § 1011.15(f) in this paragraph, even though HUD had eliminated § 1711.15(f) in 1996 and § 1011.15(f) does not exist. The technical amendment to remove the citation to § 1011.15(f) does not modify any requirements or obligations under Regulation J.

    1010.215 Subdivision Characteristics and Climate

    (a)

    Section 1010.215(a) requires submission of two copies of a current geological survey topographic map or maps from the U.S. Geological Survey and prohibits use of photocopies made by the developer. The final rule amends this section to require submission of only one copy and to eliminate the prohibition on photocopying. The Bureau believes that reducing the number of copies required to be filed could reduce costs for developers and for the Bureau, and anticipates that these changes will facilitate compliance and electronic filing.

    1010.310 Annual Report of Activity

    (b)

    The Bureau is amending § 1010.310(b) to allow for submission of annual reports through the electronic means described in § 1010.20(a). Permitting electronic submission will reduce the burden on filers and facilitate the Bureau's processing of submissions.

    1010.500 General

    (a)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.500(a) to remove duplicated words.

    1010.503 Notice of Certification

    (a)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.503(a), which currently erroneously refers to § 1010.501(a) or (b) as the provisions pursuant to which a State may qualify for certification. Prior to the Restatement, 24 CFR 1710.503(a) referred to 24 CFR 1710.501(a) or (b), which implemented the requirements of 15 U.S.C. 1708(a). As part of the Restatement, the Bureau replaced § 1710.501 with § 1010.501 in this paragraph, even though HUD had removed § 1710.501 from codification in 1996 [8] and § 1010.501 does not exist. Because § 1010.501 does not exist, the final rule substitutes a reference to subpart C of part 1010, which is the subpart pursuant to which a State may qualify for certification. This technical amendment does not alter or change the substance of the requirements of § 1010.503(a).

    1010.504 Cooperation Among Certified States and Between Certified States and the Director

    (a)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.504(a), which currently erroneously refers to § 1010.502 as the provision pursuant to which an Application for Certification of State Land Sales Program is filed. Because § 1010.502 does not exist, the final rule substitutes a reference to subpart C of part 1010, which is the subpart pursuant to which an Application for Certification of State Land Sales Program is filed. This technical amendment does not alter or change the substance of the requirements of § 1010.504(a).

    (c)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.504(c) to remove a duplicated word.

    1010.505 Withdrawal of State Certification

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to the title of § 1010.505 to remove a duplicated word.Start Printed Page 29114

    1010.506 State/Federal Filing Requirements

    (a)(1)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.506(a)(1), which currently erroneously refers to § 1010.501 as the provision under which the Director certifies States. Because § 1010.501 does not exist, the final rule substitutes a reference to subpart C of part 1010, which is the subpart under which the Director certifies States. This technical amendment does not alter or change the substance of the requirements of § 1010.506(a)(1).

    (a)(2)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.506(a)(2) to remove a duplicated word.

    (f)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.506(f) to remove a duplicated word.

    1010.507 Effect of Suspension or Withdrawal of Certification Granted Under § 1010.501(a): Full Disclosure Requirement

    The Bureau is making technical amendments to the title of § 1010.507 and to § 1010.507(a), which currently erroneously refer to § 1010.501(a) as a provision under which the Director certifies States. Prior to the Restatement, 24 CFR 1710.507 cited 24 CFR 1710.501(a), which implemented the requirements of 15 U.S.C. 1708(a)(1). As part of the Restatement, the Bureau replaced § 1710.501(a) with § 1010.501(a) in this paragraph, even though HUD had removed § 1710.501 from codification in 1996 and § 1010.501(a) does not exist. The Bureau is now replacing the erroneous citations to § 1010.501(a) with citations to 15 U.S.C. 1708(a)(1). These technical amendments do not alter or change the substance of the requirements of § 1010.507.

    1010.508 Effect of Suspension of Certification Granted Under § 1010.501(b): Sufficient Protection Requirement

    The Bureau is making technical amendments to the title of § 1010.508 and to § 1010.508(a), which currently erroneously refer to § 1010.501(b) as a provision under which the Director certifies States. Prior to the Restatement, 24 CFR 1710.508 cited 24 CFR 1710.501(b), which implemented the requirements of 15 U.S.C. 1708(a)(2). As part of the Restatement, the Bureau replaced § 1710.501(b) with § 1010.501(b) in this section, even though HUD had removed § 1710.501 from codification in 1996 and § 1010.501(b) does not exist. The Bureau is now replacing the erroneous citations to § 1010.501(b) with citations to 15 U.S.C. 1708(a)(2). These technical amendments do not alter or change the substance of the requirements of § 1010.508.

    1010.552 Previously Accepted State Filings

    (a)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1010.552 to replace an erroneous citation to § 1011.15(f) with a citation to 15 U.S.C. 1703(a)(2)(D). Prior to the Restatement, 24 CFR 1710.552(a) cited 24 CFR 1715.15(f), which implemented the requirements of 15 U.S.C. 1703(a)(2)(D). As part of the Restatement, the Bureau replaced § 1715.15(f) with § 1011.15(f) in this section, even though HUD had eliminated § 1715.15(f) in 1996 and § 1011.15(f) does not exist. This technical amendment does not modify any requirements or obligations under Regulation J.

    Appendix A to Part 1010

    This Appendix provides Standard and Model Forms and Clauses. The Bureau is making a technical amendment to section III, Sample Lot Information Statement and Sample Receipt—§ 1010.15(b)(11), to provide contact information for the relevant Bureau office. The Bureau is also making a technical amendment to section VIII, Property Report for Statement of Record—§ 1010.100(b), to harmonize a heading label with the requirements of § 1010.107.

    B. Regulation L

    1012.35 Prefiling Assistance

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1012.35 to reflect changes in the internal organization of the Bureau and to provide contact information for the relevant Bureau office.

    1012.40 Processing of Filings

    (a)

    The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1012.40(a) to reflect changes in the internal organization of the Bureau.

    1012.236 Notice of Proceedings To Withdraw a State's Certification

    (b)

    Section 1012.236(b) refers to a determination by the Director pursuant to § 1010.505 that a State's laws, regulations, and the administration thereof, taken as a whole, no longer meet the requirements of § 1010.501. The Bureau is making a technical amendment to § 1012.236(b) to conform the language of § 1012.236(b) to that of § 1010.505. The final rule substitutes subpart C of part 1010 for § 1010.501, which does not exist. This technical amendment does not alter or change the substance of the requirements of § 1012.236(b).

    V. Effective Date

    The Administrative Procedure Act generally requires that rules be published not less than 30 days before their effective dates.[9] This final rule is effective 30 days after May 11, 2016.

    VI. Dodd-Frank Act Section 1022(b) Analysis

    A. Overview

    In developing this final rule, the Bureau has considered potential benefits, costs, and impacts and has consulted, or offered to consult with, HUD and HUD's Office of the Inspector General, including regarding consistency with any prudential, market, or systemic objectives administered by such agencies.[10]

    The Bureau is amending Regulation J to allow ILSA filings by electronic means designated on the Bureau's Web site or via physical mail. The final rule exempts electronic filings from certain requirements in § 1010.102 relating to paper type, folding, and ordering. The Bureau is also amending Regulation J to require filings submitted by mail to be sent to the Bureau directly, rather than to a third-party service provider. The existing contract with the service provider will not be renewed. The Bureau is also making certain technical changes to Regulations J and L.

    This analysis focuses on the benefits, costs, and impacts of the key provision of the final rule, the new electronic Start Printed Page 29115filing option.[11] The Bureau is evaluating the benefits, costs, and impacts of the final rule against the current regulation.

    B. Potential Benefits and Costs to Consumers and Covered Persons

    The current rule directs filers [12] to submit ILSA filings by physically mailing paper copies to the Bureau in care of a service provider. In addition, the Bureau has in practice permitted submissions by physically-mailed digital media.

    If filers wish to continue physically mailing their paper submissions after this rulemaking, they may do so using the address provided in the final rule for the Bureau. Filers that continue to submit paper filings would generally incur no costs as a result of the rule. Based on the expected volume of paper submissions, the Bureau believes that the processing time for paper filings is unlikely to change from the current processing time. Additionally, the Bureau has taken several steps to reduce the burden on paper filers, by, for example, permitting copies of topographic maps to be submitted instead of the original; eliminating the requirement that developers submit multiple copies of the Property Report to the Bureau; and relaxing paper size, binding, and other formatting requirements for Bureau submissions.

    Two primary categories of filers may take advantage of electronic filing: Filers that switch from paper filing to electronic filing and covered persons that currently submit filings by physically-mailed digital media. Filers that switch from paper submissions to the new electronic means of submission may incur benefits and costs, but presumably will only adopt the new means when it is advantageous to them. Filers that currently submit filings by physically-mailed digital media will now file via either the electronic means designated by the Bureau or physically-mailed paper submissions. Filers may choose different submission options for each filing, only exercising the electronic option when it is beneficial.

    Electronic filing may reduce preparation time for some filers and offer faster processing of their submissions. Electronic filing will eliminate the time in transit for physical mailings, the time required for the Bureau to scan paper submissions, and the processing time added by necessary security precautions taken for mailed digital media submissions. In addition, the new means may benefit filers by reducing costs spent on printing paper submissions and mailing both paper and physically-mailed digital media submissions, as well as the costs spent on the digital media devices.

    For filers who currently physically mail digital media to the Bureau, the costs of switching to direct electronic submission should be negligible because those submissions are already formatted and saved electronically. The Bureau does not possess any data that would enable it to quantify these costs or savings, but informal outreach indicates that many filers would prefer the electronic option over physical mailings.

    This procedural rulemaking is expected to have negligible impact on consumers.

    C. Impact on Depository Institutions With No More Than $10 Billion in Assets

    This final rule will affect land developers and law firms and others making filings on behalf of land developers. Depository institutions with no more than $10 billion in assets will not be impacted by this final rule.

    D. Impact on Access to Credit

    The Bureau does not expect this final rule to affect consumers' access to credit. The scope of the rulemaking is limited to filings related to land development, which are not directly related to credit access.

    E. Impact on Rural Areas

    The Bureau does not believe that this final rule will have a unique impact on consumers in rural areas. Any potential effects on consumers, expected to be negligible in all cases, would be indirect effects passed through by developers, and the impact on developers is not expected to vary by geographic area.

    VII. Paperwork Reduction Act

    This final rule amends Regulations J and L, 12 CFR parts 1010 and 1012, to allow developers to submit ILSA filings electronically and make other technical adjustments. The Bureau's OMB control number for collections under ILSA is 3170-0012. This rule does not add any new collections and does not remove any of the existing collections, although it does reduce the number of copies required to be submitted to the Bureau for certain paper filings. Therefore, the impact of this new rule on the Paperwork Reduction Act burden associated with ILSA depends largely on the extent to which developers switch from paper submissions to electronic submissions. Currently, only 10 percent of ILSA information collections received by the Bureau are done in electronic form. If all submissions become electronic, the estimated savings in ongoing Paperwork Reduction Act burden could be up to 972 hours and 15,000 pages of paper per year. The one-time burden associated with a new method of submission is expected to be minimal because many documents are already created electronically for business reasons.

    A listing of the statutory exemptions is contained in 15 U.S.C. 1702. In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1702(a)(2), if the sale involves a condominium or multi-unit construction, a presale clause conditioning the sale of a unit on a certain percentage of sales of other units is permissible if it is legally binding on the parties and is for a period not to exceed 180 days. However, the 180-day provision cannot extend the 2-year period for performance. The permissible 180 days is calculated from the date the first purchaser signs a sales contract in the project or, if a phased project, from the date the first purchaser signs the first sales contract in each phase.

    General instructions for completing the Statement of Record.

    (a) Paper and type. The Statement of Record shall be on good quality, unglazed white or pastel paper. Letter size paper, approximately 81/2 × 11 inches in size, will be used for the Property Report portion, and either letter size paper, approximately 81/2 × 11 inches in size, or legal size paper, approximately 81/2 × 14 inches in size, will be used for the Additional Information and Documentation portion. Side margins shall be no less than 1 inch and no greater than 11/2 inches. Top and bottom margins shall be no less than 1 inch. In the preparation of the charts to be included in the Property Report, the developer may vary from the above margin requirements or print the charts lengthwise on the required size paper if such measures are necessary to make the charts readable. The Statement of Record shall be prepared in an easily readable, uniform font.

    * * * * *

    (e) Headings, subheadings, captions, introductory paragraphs, warnings. Property Report subject “headings” are those descriptive introductory words which appear immediately after section numbers 1010.106 through 1010.116 (e.g. § 1010.108 has “General Information” and § 1010.111 has “Utilities”). Each such heading shall be printed in the Property Report in underlined capital letters and centered at the top of a new page. Section numbers shall not be printed in the Property Report. Property Report subheadings are those descriptive introductory words which appear in italics in the regulations at the beginning of paragraphs designated by paragraph letters (a), (b), (c) etc. An example of a subheading is “water” found immediately after the paragraph letter (a) in § 1010.111. These subheadings will be printed in the Property Report only if they are relevant to the subject subdivision. If printed these subheadings shall be capitalized and shall begin at the left hand margin of the page. Property Report “captions” are those descriptive introductory words which appear in italics in the Regulations at the beginning of paragraphs designated by numbers (1), (2), (3), etc. An example of such Start Printed Page 29117captions is “Sales Contract and Delivery of Deed” found immediately after the paragraph number “(1)” in § 1010.109(b). These captions are to be printed in the Property Report only if they are applicable to the subject subdivision. If printed, these captions shall be centered on the page from the side margins, and shall have only the first letter of each word capitalized. Headings and subheadings will be used in the Property Report in accordance with the sample page appearing in section IX of the appendix to this part. Introductory paragraphs will follow headings if they are applicable and necessary for a readable entry into the subject matters, but note, the introductory paragraphs for “Title to the Property and Land Use” are to be used in every case as provided in § 1010.109(a)(1). Subheadings and captions which do not apply to the subdivision should be omitted from the Property Report portion and answered “not applicable” in the Additional Information and Documentation portion, unless specifically required to be included elsewhere in these instructions. Warnings shall be printed substantially as they appear in the instructions in §§ 1010.105 through 1010.118. They shall be printed in capital letters and may be enclosed in a box. The paragraphs in the Property Report portion need not be numbered. A sample page is set forth in section IX of the appendix to this part: Sample Page for Statement of Record.

    (m) Final version of Property Report. On the date that a Statement of Record becomes effective, the Property Report portion shall become the Property Report for the subject subdivision. The version of the Property Report delivered to prospective lot purchasers shall be verbatim to that found effective by the Director and shall have no covers, pictures, emblems, logograms or identifying insignia other than as required by these regulations. It shall meet the same standards as to grade of paper, type size, margins, style and color of print as those set herein for the Statement of Record, except where required otherwise by these regulations. However, the date of typing or preparation of the pages and the ILSRP number shall not appear in the final version. If the final version of the Property Report is commercially printed, or photocopied by a process which results in a commercial printing quality, and is bound on the left side, both sides of the pages may be used for printed material. If it is typed or photocopied by a process which does not result in a clear and legible product on both sides of the page or is bound at the top, printing shall be done on only one side of the page. If a Statement of Record is filed with the Bureau via electronic means pursuant to § 1010.20(a), the version of the Property Report delivered to prospective lot purchasers shall meet the same standards that apply under these regulations to a Statement of Record not filed with the Bureau via electronic means. One copy of the final version of the Property Report, in the exact form in which it is delivered to prospective lot purchasers, shall be sent to ILSRP Office within 20 days of the date on which the Statement of Record, amendment, or consolidation is allowed to become effective by the Director. If a Property Report in a foreign language is used as required by § 1011.25(g), a copy of that Property Report together with a copy of the translated documents shall be furnished the Director within 20 days of the date on which the advertising is first used. A Property Report prepared pursuant to these regulations shall not be distributed to potential lot purchasers until after the Statement of Record of which it is a part or any amendment to that Statement of Record has been made effective by the Director.

    General.

    (a) This subpart establishes procedures and criteria for certifying state land sale or lease disclosure programs and state land development standards programs. The purpose of State Certification is to lessen the administrative burden on the individual developer, arising where there are duplicative state and Federal registration and disclosure requirements, without affecting the level of protection given to the individual purchaser or lessee. If the Director determines that a state has adopted and Start Printed Page 29118is effectively administering a program that gives purchasers and lessees the same level of protection given to them by the Interstate Land Sales Registration Program, then the Director shall certify that state. Developers who accomplish an effective registration with a state in which the land is located after the Director has certified the state may satisfy the registration requirements of the Director by filing with the Director materials designated by agreement with certified states in lieu of the Federal Statement of Record and Property Report.

Section 1022(b)(2)(B) of the Dodd-Frank Act directs the Bureau to consult with appropriate prudential regulators or other Federal agencies regarding consistency with prudential, market, or systemic objectives that those agencies administer. The manner and extent to which these provisions apply to a rulemaking of this kind that does not establish standards of conduct is unclear. Nevertheless, to inform this rulemaking more fully, the Bureau performed the described analyses and has consulted, or offered to consult, as indicated.

These changes increase the accuracy and consistency of the regulations' language, but are expected to have negligible impacts on consumers or covered persons. As noted below in the discussion of the potential costs and benefits, the final rule also offers developers additional options with respect to the form of certain filings when submitted via paper.

    12.  For purposes of this analysis, “filer” refers to a developer or owner within the meaning of ILSA. Developers or owners within the meaning of ILSA are typically not covered persons within the meaning of the Dodd-Frank Act. Accordingly, the Bureau believes that the final rule will have minimal if any impact on covered persons. Nevertheless, to inform this rulemaking more fully, the Bureau has performed the described analysis with respect to the impact on filers.
