    General Description of Report
    
        This information collection is mandatory [12 U.S.C. 248(a), 461, 
    603, 615, and 1305(b)(2)] and is given confidential treatment [5 U.S.C. 
    552b(4)].
        This package of reports collects information on: deposits and 
    related items from depository institutions that have transaction 
    accounts or nonpersonal time deposits and that are not fully exempt 
    from reserve requirements (``nonexempt institutions'') (FR 2900); 
    Eurocurrency transactions from depository institutions that obtain 
    funds from foreign (non-U.S.) sources or that maintain foreign branches 
    (FR 2950, FR 2951); and selected items on the FR 2900 in advance from 
    samples of commercial banks on a daily basis (FR 2000) and on a weekly 
    basis (FR 2001). The Federal Reserve proposes that the single deposit 
    cutoff ($44.8 million) (and one of two determinants of deposits 
    reporting category) be replaced by two separate deposit cutoffs ($44.8 
    million and $55.0 million). The higher cutoff would be applied to 
    nonexempt reporters, resulting in a shift of over 1,000 reporters from 
    weekly to quarterly FR 2900 reporting and a significant reduction in 
    annual reporting burden. The lower cutoff would continue to apply to 
    fully-exempt institutions (see Item 1 below). In the future, both 
    cutoffs would be indexed annually. Also, the Federal Reserve proposes 
    to broaden the entity coverage of the daily FR 2000 to include large 
    thrift institutions, and recommends that eighteen thrifts be added to 
    the reporting panel. No revisions to the content of any of the reports 
    are proposed. Information provided by these reports is used for 
    administering Regulation D--Reserve Requirements of Depository 
    Institutions; or for constructing, analyzing, and controlling the 
    monetary and reserves aggregates; or both.
        Final approval under OMB delegated authority of the extension 
    without revisions, of the following reports:
        1. Report title: Quarterly Report of Selected Deposits, Vault Cash 
    and Reservable Liabilities; and Annual Report of Total Deposits and 
    Reservable Liabilities.
        Agency form number: FR 2910q; FR 2910a.
        OMB Docket number: 7100-0175.
        Frequency: Quarterly; Annually.
        Reporters: Depository institutions.
        Annual reporting hours: 7,194.

    the monetary aggregates and to ensure compliance with Regulation D--
    Reserve Requirements of Depository Institutions. No changes are 
    proposed for these reports.

    U.S.C. 248(a) and 461] and is given confidential treatment [5 U.S.C. 
    552b(4)].
        This report provides information on the allocation of the low 
    reserve tranche and reservable liabilities exemption for depository 
    institutions having offices (or groups of offices) that submit separate 
    FR 2900 deposits reports. The data collected by these reports are 
    needed for the calculation of required reserves. No changes are 
    proposed for these reports.
    
        Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, August 10, 
    1994.
