[top] General Description of Collection: Each supervised lending institution is required to provide a notice of special flood hazards to a borrower acquiring a

loan secured by a building on real property located in an area identified by FEMA as subject to special flood hazards, and various other notices to borrowers, servicers and FEMA. The Riegle Community Development Act requires that each institution also provide a copy of the notice to the servicer of the loan (if different from the originating lender). Section 100239 of the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 requires each federal banking agency (including the FDIC), and the Farm Credit Administration, to adopt implementing regulations to direct regulated lending institutions to accept "private flood insurance," as defined by the Biggert-Waters Act. A lending institution would be required to implement policies and procedures to comply with the Biggert-Waters Act provision and verify in writing that a private insurance policy satisfies the criteria included in the definition or document findings that separate required criteria have been met when accepting a private flood insurance policy in satisfaction of the mandatory flood insurance purchase requirement of the Flood Disaster Protection Act. The institution must also maintain records to permit examination staff to ascertain how the institution has met the requirements of the regulation.

The FDIC has reviewed its previous submission related to the PRA and has updated its methodology to align with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency's corresponding information collection (1557-0326). The decrease in the estimated annual burden of 409,935 hours is the result of this change in methodology.

Request for Comment

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions, including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All comments will become a matter of public record.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Dated at Washington, DC, on May 24, 2022.

Assistant Executive Secretary.
