SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EGRPRA \1\ directs the Agencies, along with 
the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (Council), not 
less frequently than once every ten years, to conduct a review of their 
regulations to identify outdated or otherwise unnecessary regulations 
imposed on insured depository institutions. As part of this review, the 
Agencies are holding a series of six outreach meetings to provide an 
opportunity for bankers, consumer and community groups, and other 
interested persons to present their views directly to senior management 
and staff of the Agencies on any of 12 specific categories of the 
Agencies' regulations, as further described below. The Agencies held 
the first of these outreach meetings on December 2, 2014, in Los 
Angeles, California; the second outreach meeting on February 4, 2015, 
in Dallas, Texas; and the third outreach meeting on May 4, 2015, in 
Boston, Massachusetts. Recorded videos and transcripts of these 
outreach meetings are available on the EGRPRA Web site at http://egrpra.ffiec.gov/outreach/outreach-index.html.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The fourth outreach meeting will be held on August 4, 2015, in 
Kansas City, Missouri, and will be streamed live at http://egrpra.ffiec.gov/. Senior agency staff from the Board, OCC, and FDIC 
are scheduled to attend. The meeting will consist of panels of bankers 
and consumer and community groups who will present particular issues. 
As the fourth outreach meeting will focus on the effects of banking 
regulations on rural banks and their communities, the Agencies have 
requested that panelists give attention to these issues. There will be 
limited time after each panel for comments from meeting attendees and 
online participants. In addition, there will be a session at the end of 
the meeting during which audience members and online participants may 
present views on any of the regulations under review. The Agencies 
reserve the right to limit the time of individual commenters, if 
needed, in order to accommodate the number of persons desiring to 
speak.
    Comments made by panelists, audience members, and online 
participants at this meeting will be part of the public record. 
Audience members who do not wish to comment orally may submit written 
comments at the meeting. As noted above, any interested person may 
submit comments through the EGRPRA Web site during open comment periods 
at: http://egrpra.ffiec.gov/submit-comment/submit-comment-index.html or 
directly to the Agencies through any of the other manners specified 
above.
    All persons wanting to participate in person should register for 
the Kansas City outreach meeting at http://egrpra.ffiec.gov/outreach/outreach-index.html. Because of space constraints, on-site attendance 
will be limited. Online registrations will be accepted through July 27, 
2015, or until all seats are filled, whichever is earlier. If seats are 
available, individuals may register in person at the Federal Reserve 
Bank of Kansas City on the day of the meeting. Individuals do not need 
to register to view the live-stream broadcast.
    We note that the meeting will be recorded and publicly webcast in 
order to increase education and outreach. By participating in the 
meeting, either in person or online, you consent to appear and to be 
heard in such recordings.

Additional Background on EGRPRA

    Section 2222 of EGRPRA directs the Agencies, along with the 
Council, to conduct a review of their regulations not less frequently 
than once every ten years to identify outdated or otherwise unnecessary 
regulatory requirements imposed on insured depository institutions. In 
conducting this review, the Agencies are required to categorize their 
regulations by type and, at regular intervals, provide notice and 
solicit public comment on categories of regulations, requesting 
commenters to identify areas of regulations that are outdated, 
unnecessary, or unduly burdensome. The statute requires the Agencies to 
publish in the Federal Register a summary of the comments received, 
identifying significant issues raised and commenting on these issues. 
The statute also directs the Agencies to eliminate unnecessary 
regulations to the extent that such action is appropriate. Finally, 
section 2222 requires the Council, of which the Agencies are members, 
to submit a report to Congress that summarizes any significant issues 
raised in the public comments and the relative merits of such issues. 
The report also must include an analysis of whether the Agencies are 
able to address the regulatory burdens associated with such issues by 
regulation or whether these burdens must be addressed by legislative 
action.
    For purposes of this review, the Agencies have grouped their 
regulations into 12 categories: Applications and Reporting; Banking 
Operations; Capital; Community Reinvestment Act; Consumer Protection; 
Directors, Officers and Employees; International Operations; Money 
Laundering; Powers and Activities; Rules of Procedure; Safety and 
Soundness; and Securities. On June 4, 2014, the Agencies published a 
Federal Register notice announcing the start of the EGRPRA review 
process

[[Page 39392]]

and also asking for public comment on three of these categories--
Applications and Reporting; Powers and Activities; and International 
Operations regulations.\2\ In that notice the Agencies published a 
chart, listing their regulations in the 12 categories included in the 
EGRPRA review. On February 13, 2015, the Agencies published a second 
Federal Register notice asking for public comment on three additional 
categories--Banking Operations; Capital; and the Community Reinvestment 
Act.\3\ The comment period for the second Federal Register notice 
closed on May 14, 2015. On June 5, 2015, the Agencies published a third 
Federal Register notice asking for public comment on three additional 
categories--Consumer Protection; Directors, Officers and Employees; and 
Money Laundering.\4\ The comment period for the current notice will 
close on September 3, 2015.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The third Federal Register notice also announced the Agencies' 
decision to expand the scope of the EGRPRA review in order to be as 
inclusive as possible. The Agencies will now take comment on all of 
their regulations issued in final form up to the date that they publish 
their last EGRPRA notice for public comment. The Agencies have included 
a separate chart in the third notice that lists the newly issued rules 
included in the review.
