FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM 

Formations of, Acquisitions by, and 

Mergers of Bank Holding Companies 

The companies listed in this notice 

have applied to the Board for approval, 

pursuant to the Bank Holding Company 

Act of 1956 (12 U.S.C. 1841 et seq.) 

(BHC Act), Regulation Y (12 CFR part 

225), and all other applicable statutes 

and regulations to become a bank 

holding company and/or to acquire the 

assets or the ownership of, control of, or 

the power to vote shares of a bank or 

bank holding company and all of the 

banks and nonbanking companies 

owned by the bank holding company, 

including the companies listed below. 

The applications listed below, as well 

as other related filings required by the 

Board, are available for immediate 

inspection at the Federal Reserve Bank 

indicated. The application also will be 

available for inspection at the offices of 

the Board of Governors. Interested 

persons may express their views in 

writing on the standards enumerated in 

the BHC Act (12 U.S.C. 1842(c)). If the 

proposal also involves the acquisition of 

a nonbanking company, the review also 

includes whether the acquisition of the 

nonbanking company complies with the 

standards in section 4 of the BHC Act 

(12 U.S.C. 1843). Unless otherwise 

noted, nonbanking activities will be 

conducted throughout the United States. 

Unless otherwise noted, comments 

regarding each of these applications 

must be received at the Reserve Bank

Proposed Project 

FoodNet Non-O157 Shiga toxinProducing E. coli Study: Assessment of 

Risk Factors for Laboratory-Confirmed 

Infections and Characterization of 

Illnesses by Microbiological 

Characteristics—New—National Center 

for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious 

Diseases, Centers for Disease Control 

and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Each year many Shiga toxinproducing E. coli (STEC) infections 

occur in the United States, ranging in 

severity from mild diarrhea, to 

hemorrhagic colitis and in some cases, 

life-threatening hemolytic uremic 

syndrome (HUS). HUS occurs most 

frequently following infection with 

serogroup O157; 6% of patients with 

this type of STEC infection develop 

HUS, with highest occurrence in 

children aged < 5 years. HUS has a 

fatality rate of approximately 5%; up to 

25% of HUS survivors are left with 

chronic kidney damage. STEC are 

broadly categorized into two groups by 

their O antigens, STEC O157 and nonO157 STEC. The serogroup O157 is 

most frequently isolated and most 

strongly associated with HUS. Risk 

factors for STEC O157 infections in the 

United States and internationally have 

been intensely studied. Non-O157 STEC 

are a diverse group that includes all 

Shiga toxin-producing E. coli of 

serogroups other than O157. Over 50 

STEC serogroups are known to have 

caused human illness. Numerous nonO157 outbreaks have been reported from 

throughout the world and clinical 

outcomes in some patients can be as 

severe as those seen with STEC O157 

infections, however, little is known 

about the specific risk factors for 

infections due to non-O157 STEC 

serogroups. More comprehensive 

understanding of risk factors for 

sporadic non-O157 STEC infections is 

needed to inform prevention and 

control efforts. The FoodNet casecontrol study will be the first multistate 

investigation of non-outbreak-associated 

non-O157 STEC infections in the United 

States. It will investigate risk factors for 

non-O157 STEC infections, both as a 

group and individually for the most 

common non-O157 STEC serogroups. In 

addition, the study will characterize the 

major known virulence factors of nonO157 STEC to assess how risk factors 

and clinical features vary by virulence 

factor profiles. As the largest, most 

comprehensive, and most powerful 

study of its kind, it could make an 

important contribution towards better 

understanding of non-O157 STEC 

infections and to providing sciencebased recommendations for 

interventions to prevent these 

infections. 

Persons with non-O157 STEC 

infections who are identified as part of 

routine public health surveillance and 

randomly selected healthy persons in 

the patients’ communities (to serve as 

controls) will be contacted and offered 

enrollment into this study. Participation 

is completely voluntary and there is no 

cost for enrollment. The total estimated 

annualized burden is 268 hours.
