hmda/doc/hmdalar2007.doc. 

a series of anticipated transactions that 

would connect the rail lines with any 

other railroad in the corporate family; 

and (3) the transaction does not involve 

a Class I rail carrier. Therefore, the 

transaction is exempt from the prior 

approval requirements of 49 U.S.C. 

11323. See 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(2). 

Under 49 U.S.C. 10502(g), the Board 

may not use its exemption authority to 

relieve a rail carrier of its statutory 

obligation to protect the interests of its 

employees. Section 11326(c), however, 

does not provide for labor protection for 

transactions under § 11324 and § 11325 

that involve only Class III rail carriers. 

Accordingly, the Board may not impose 

labor protective conditions here because 

all of the carriers involved are Class III 

carriers. 

If the verified notice contains false or 

misleading information, the exemption 

is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the 

exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d) 

may be filed at any time. The filing of 

a petition to revoke will not 

automatically stay the effectiveness of 

the exemption. Stay petitions must be 

filed no later than April 29, 2011 (at 

least 7 days before the exemption 

becomes effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 

35484, must be filed with the Surface 

Transportation Board, 395 E Street, SW., 

Washington, DC 20423–0001. In 

addition, one copy of each pleading 

must be served on Richard H. Streeter, 

5255 Partridge Lane, NW., Washington, 

DC 20016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC 

is proposing to revise the following 

information collection: 

Title: Fair Housing Home Loan Data 

System Regulation. 

OMB Control No.: 1557–0159. 

Description: The Fair Housing Act (42 

U.S.C. 3605) prohibits discrimination in 

the financing of housing on the basis of 

race, color, religion, sex, or national 

origin. The Equal Credit Opportunity 

Act (15 U.S.C. 1691 et seq.) prohibits 

discrimination in any aspect of a credit 

transaction on the basis of race, color, 

religion, national origin, sex, marital 

status, age, receipt of income from 

public assistance, or exercise of any 

right under the Consumer Credit 

Protection Act. The OCC is responsible 

for ensuring that national banks comply 

with those laws. This information in 

collection 12 CFR Part 27 is needed to 

promote national bank compliance and 

for OCC to fulfill its statutory 

responsibilities. 

The information collection 

requirements in 12 CFR part 27 are as 

follows: 

• Section 27.3(a) requires national 

banks that are required to collect data 

on home loans under 12 CFR part 203 

to present the data on Federal Reserve 

Form FR HMDA–LAR,1 or in automated 

format in accordance with the HMDA– 

LAR instructions, and to include one 

additional item (the reason for denial) 

on the HMDA–LAR. Section 27.3(a) also 

lists exceptions to the HMDA–LAR 

recordkeeping requirements. 

• Section 27.3(b) lists the information 

banks should obtain from an applicant 

as part of a home loan application, and 

states information that a bank must 

disclose to an applicant. 

• Section 27.3(c) sets forth additional 

information required to be kept in the 

loan file. 

• Section 27.4 states that the OCC 

may require a national bank to maintain 

a Fair Housing Inquiry/Application Log 

found in Appendix III to part 27 if there 

is reason to believe that the bank is 

engaging in discriminatory practices or 

if analysis of the data compiled by the 

bank under the Home Mortgage 

Disclosure Act (12 U.S.C. 2801 et seq.) 

and 12 CFR part 203 indicates a pattern 

of significant variation in the number of 

home loans between census tracts with 

similar incomes and home ownership 

levels differentiated only by race or 

national origin. 

• Section 27.5 requires a national 

bank to maintain the information 

required by § 27.3 for 25 months after 

the bank notifies the applicant of action 

taken on an application, or after 

withdrawal of an application. 

• Section 27.7 requires a national 

bank to submit the information required 

by §§ 27.3(a) and 27.4 to the OCC upon 

its request, prior to a scheduled 

examination using the Monthly Home 

Loan Activity Format form in Appendix 

I to part 27 and the Home Loan Data 

Form in Appendix IV to part 27.

• Sections 9.9(a) and (b) require a 

national bank to note the results of a 

fiduciary audit in the minutes of the 

board of directors; 

• Section 9.17(a) requires a national 

bank that wants to surrender its 

fiduciary powers to file with the OCC a 

certified copy of the resolution of its 

board of directors; 

• Section 9.18(b)(1) requires a 

national bank to establish and maintain 

each collective investment fund in 

accordance with a written plan, to make 

the plan available for public inspection, 

and to provide a copy of the plan to any 

person who requests it; 

• Section 9.18(b)(6)(ii) requires a
