SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background II. Legal Authority III. Section-by-Section Analysis IV. Regulatory Procedures I. Background Occasionally, the Board will issue a technical amendments rule correcting minor drafting errors, inaccurate legal citations, or superfluous regulatory provisions throughout the NCUA's regulations. Because these changes are technical in nature, and do not affect FICUs in a substantive manner, the Board issues these technical amendments rules as final rules without notice and comment typically required by the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).[1]
                    
                     The NCUA's Office of General Counsel has identified a number of minor drafting errors and inaccurate citations and other technical problems throughout the NCUA's regulations for correction. Accordingly, the Board is issuing this final rule to address those matters. II. Legal Authority The Board has the legal authority to issue this final rule pursuant to its plenary rulemaking authority under the Federal Credit Union Act (FCU Act) [2]
                    
                     and its specific rulemaking authority under the various acts the Board administers.[3] III. Section-by-Section Analysis General Wording, Style, and Cross-Reference Changes The final rule makes general wording, style, and cross-reference changes throughout the NCUA's regulations. For example, the final rule replaces the term “federally-insured” with “federally insured” wherever it appears to promote uniformity. Technical amendments of this nature will apply throughout the NCUA's regulations. Therefore, the preamble does not address these types of stylistic changes in the section-by-section analysis below. Section 700.2—Definitions The final rule amends the definitions listed in § 700.2 of the NCUA's regulations. These definitions apply throughout chapter VII of title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations “unless the context indicates otherwise.” [4] Specifically, the final rule revises the definition of “
                    *Act*
                    ” to read “Federal Credit Union Act (12 U.S.C. 1751, 
                    *et seq.*).” The current definition, which reads “Federal Credit Union Act (73 Stat. 628, 84 Stat. 944, 12 U.S.C. 1751 through 1790),” is inaccurate because it fails to include Title III of the FCU Act.[5]
                    
                     The revised citation ensures that the definition of “
                    *Act*
                    ” covers the entire FCU Act. The final rule also replaces the term “
                    *Administration*
                    ” with “
                    *NCUA*
                    ” to avoid confusion. The term “
                    *Administration*
                    ” only appears in § 700.2 and one other section of the NCUA's regulations. The final rule makes conforming amendments to the definitions of “
                    *Regional Director*
                    ” and “
                    *Regional Office.*
                    ”
                    ( print page 1602) Moreover, the final rule amends the definition of “
                    *credit union*
                    ” to conform to the definition in the FCU Act.[6]
                    
                     Because several of the NCUA's regulations refer to “federally insured credit unions,” “insured credit unions,” or otherwise reference the insured status of a credit union, the final rule adds definitions for “
                    *federally insured credit union*
                    ” and “
                    *noninsured credit union*
                    ” to clarify those terms where they are not separately defined in specific rules. These definitions mirror the definitions of those terms in the FCU Act.[7] Finally, the final rule combines the definitions of “
                    *paid-in and unimpaired capital and surplus*
                    ” and “
                    *unimpaired capital and surplus*
                    ” to avoid repetition. Section 700.2 currently defines “unimpaired capital and surplus” as “the same as `paid-in and unimpaired capital and surplus,' as defined in paragraph (f) of this section.” The final rule replaces these separate definitions with a single definition that reads “
                    *paid-in and unimpaired capital and surplus*
                     or 
                    *unimpaired capital and surplus.*
                    ” Section 701.6—Fees Paid by Federal Credit Unions The final rule replaces references to “the Administration” with “NCUA” in § 701.6 and simplifies the regulatory text. This provision governs the assessment of operating fees on federal credit unions (FCUs) and the imposition of administrative fees and interest for delinquent payments.[8]
                    
                     While the final rule modernizes the language of this section, the substantive requirements remain the same. Appendix B to Part 701—Chartering and Field of Membership Manual The final rule makes technical amendments to the Chartering and Field of Membership Manual (Chartering Manual). The Board recently issued two final rules related to FCU chartering and field of membership. The Board published a final rule in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     on December 7, 2016 (“FOM I”) that, in relevant part, expands the Chartering Manual's definitions of “well-defined local community” and “rural district.” [9]
                    
                     The Board published a second rule in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     on June 28, 2018 (“FOM II”) that, in relevant part, adopts a narrative approach for FCUs seeking to expand or convert to a community charter.[10] Both of these final rules contain typographical errors in the regulatory text including improperly labelled subheadings and extraneous punctuation. The final rule corrects those mistakes. Furthermore, the final rule reincorporates definitions from FOM I for a “well-defined local community” and “rural district,” which were inadvertently excluded from the regulatory text of the Chartering Manual when FOM II was published. Part 702—Capital Adequacy The final rule removes amendatory instruction 11 from the NCUA's risk-based capital rule.[11]
                    
                     That instruction directs the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     to edit a section reference in § 702.504(b)(4) of the NCUA's regulations. However, the Board recently removed § 702.504(b)(4) and redesignated paragraphs (b)(5) and (6) as (b)(4) and (5), respectively, as part of the capital planning and stress testing rule.[12]
                    
                     Accordingly, there is no longer a corresponding section reference for the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     to amend. To avoid an editorial note in § 702.504 highlighting this discrepancy, the final rule withdraws instruction 11. Sections 703.2 and 703.8—Investment and Deposit Activities The final rule makes technical amendments to §§ 703.2 and 703.8 of the NCUA's regulations to recognize a change in nomenclature. On March 19, 2007, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD) consolidated with NYSE Regulation, Inc. to create the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), a self-regulatory organization charged with policing the conduct of broker-dealers under federal securities laws.[13]
                    
                     Therefore, the final rule replaces references to “National Association of Securities Dealers” with “Financial Industry Regulatory Authority” and “NASD” with “FINRA” wherever they appear. Part 708a—Bank Conversions and Mergers Part 708a contains the NCUA's regulations governing the conversion of a FICU into a mutual savings bank and the merger of a FICU into a bank. This final rule updates cross-references in the rule to reflect the redesignation of sections that are now contained in Subpart A of the bank conversions and mergers rule.[14] Part 717—Fair Credit Reporting The final rule removes and reserves several subparts and appendices to part 717, the NCUA's regulation implementing the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).[15]
                    
                     Historically, the federal banking agencies, the NCUA, and the Federal Trade Commission shared rulemaking authority for various aspects of the FCRA. Title X of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) transferred most rulemaking authority for the FCRA to the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (BCFP) effective July 21, 2011.[16]
                    
                     The BCFP published a new Regulation V (Fair Credit Reporting), 12 CFR part 1022, on December 21, 2011, implementing those provisions of the FCRA.[17]
                    
                     Therefore, the Board is removing all subparts and appendices to part 717 issued under rulemaking authority in the FCRA that the Dodd-Frank Act transferred to the BCFP. Part 741—Requirements for Insurance The final rule corrects an inaccurate cross-reference in § 741.3(b)(5) of the NCUA's regulations.[18]
                    
                     That provision directs stakeholders to Appendix B to part 741 for guidance on how to develop an interest rate risk (IRR) policy and an effective IRR program. The NCUA's equity distribution rule eliminated Appendix A to part 741 and redesignated Appendix B as Appendix A. Accordingly, the Board is amending § 741.3(b)(5) to include the correct cross-reference to current Appendix A to part 741 which contains the NCUA's guidance on IRR policies. Part 746—Appeals Procedures The final rule also remedies an inadvertent drafting error in the NCUA's supervisory review committee (SRC) rule.[19]
                    
                     The SRC rule permits a FICU to appeal a material supervisory determination made by the NCUA to various appellate bodies within the agency. The SRC rule provides FICUs 
                    ( print page 1603)
                    with specific deadlines by which the credit union must file an appeal in order for the appellate body to hear an appeal. The SRC rule bases these deadlines on when the FICU receives notice of the material supervisory determination or the decision on appeal. Section 746.106, which governs appeal to the Director of the Office of Examination and Insurance (E&I), inadvertently establishes a deadline based on when the material supervisory determination was rendered by the NCUA rather than when it was received by the FICU.[20]
                    
                     The final rule corrects this drafting error to clarify that the SRC rule bases the deadline to appeal to the Director of E&I on when the FICU receives the material supervisory determination not when the decision is rendered. Part 790—Description of NCUA; Requests for Agency Action Part 790 contains a description of the NCUA's organization and the procedures for public requests for action by the Board.[21]
                    
                     This part relates solely to the practices of the NCUA and does not apply to FICU operations. In July 2017, the Board announced a plan to streamline and consolidate certain of the NCUA's functions and offices in an effort to reduce the NCUA's budget and increase efficiency. This plan includes the elimination of two NCUA Regional Offices effective December 31, 2018. The final rule amends part 790 to reflect the closure of those two offices as well as the creation of the Office of Business Innovation.[22] IV. Regulatory Procedures Administrative Procedure Act Generally, the APA requires a federal agency to provide the public with notice and an opportunity to comment on agency rulemakings.[23]
                    
                     The APA, however, creates an exception in cases where an agency for good cause determines “that notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.” [24]
                    
                     Because all of the changes in this final rule involve only minor, technical amendments to the NCUA's existing regulations, the Board has determined that notice and comment would be unnecessary and contrary to the public interest. Furthermore, the APA generally provides that a final rule may not become effective until at least 30 days after its publication in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     unless the agency determines that good cause exists to dispense with this requirement.[25]
                    
                     As noted above, given that the rule does not impose new requirements on federally insured credit unions and only involves minor, technical amendments to existing regulations, the Board finds sufficient good cause exists to dispense with the 30-day effective date requirement. The rule will, therefore, be effective immediately upon publication. Regulatory Flexibility Act The Regulatory Flexibility Act requires the NCUA to prepare an analysis of any significant economic impact a regulation may have on a substantial number of small entities (primarily those under $100 million in assets).[26]
                    
                     This final rule will have no economic impact on small credit unions because it only makes minor, technical amendments to NCUA's existing regulations. Accordingly, the NCUA certifies the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small credit unions. Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) applies to rulemakings in which an agency by rule creates a new paperwork burden on regulated entities or increases an existing burden.[27]
                    
                     For purposes of the PRA, a paperwork burden may take the form of a reporting or recordkeeping requirement, both referred to as information collections. As the final rule only makes minor, technical amendments to the NCUA's existing regulations, we have determined it does not increase paperwork requirements under the PRA. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act The Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA) provides generally for congressional review of agency rules.[28]
                    
                     A reporting requirement is triggered in instances where the NCUA issues a final rule as defined by section 551 of the APA. As required by SBREFA, NCUA has submitted this rule to the Office of Management and Budget for it to determine if the final rule is a “major rule” for purposes of SBREFA. The NCUA does not believe the rule is major. Assessment of Federal Regulations and Policies on Families The NCUA has determined that this rule will not affect family well-being within the meaning of section 654 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act.[29] Executive Order 13132 Executive Order 13132 encourages independent regulatory agencies to consider the impact of their actions on state and local interests.[30]
                    
                     The NCUA, an independent regulatory agency as defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(5), voluntarily complies with the executive order to adhere to fundamental federalism principles. The final rule does not have substantial direct effects on the states, on the relationship between the national government and the states, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. The NCUA has therefore determined that this final rule does not constitute a policy that has federalism implications for purposes of the executive order.

 By the National Credit Union Administration Board on December 13, 2018. Gerard S. Poliquin, Secretary of the Board.
 For the reasons discussed above, the Board is amending 12 CFR parts 700, 701, 702, 703, 704, 705, 708a, 708b, 709, 710, 715, 717, 723, 725, 741, 745, 746, 747, 748, 749, 750, 760, 790, 791, and 792 as follows: PART 700—DEFINITIONS

 3.The authority citation for part 701 continues to read as follows: Authority:
                        12 U.S.C. 1752(5), 1755, 1756, 1757, 1758, 1759, 1761a, 1761b, 1766, 1767, 1782, 1784, 1786, 1787, 1789. Section 701.6 is also authorized by 15 U.S.C. 3717. Section 701.31 is also authorized by 15 U.S.C. 1601

                            ( print page 1605)
                            NCUA for the current fiscal year (January 1 to December 31) in accordance with a schedule fixed by the Board from time to time.

The revision reads as follows: Appendix B to Part 701—Chartering and Field of Membership Manual 
 V.A.2—Definition of Well-Defined Local Community and Rural District In addition to the documentation requirements in Chapter 1 to charter a credit union, a community credit union applicant must provide additional documentation addressing the proposed area to be served and community service policies. An applicant has the burden of demonstrating to NCUA that the proposed community area meets the statutory requirements of being: (1) Well-defined, and (2) a local community or rural district. For an applicant seeking a community charter for an area with multiple political jurisdictions with a population of 2.5 million people or more, the Office of Credit Union Resources and Expansion (CURE) shall: (1) Publish a notice in the 
                            **Federal Register**
                             seeking comment from interested parties about the proposed community and (2) conduct a public hearing about this application. “Well-defined” means the proposed area has specific geographic boundaries. Geographic boundaries may include a city, township, county (single, multiple, or portions of a county) or a political equivalent, school districts, or a clearly identifiable neighborhood. The well-defined local community requirement is met if: Single Political Jurisdiction—The area to be served is a recognized Single Political Jurisdiction,*i.e.,*
                             a city, county, or their political equivalent, or any single portion thereof.
                        Statistical Area—A statistical area is all or an individual portion of a Core-Based Statistical Area (CBSA) designated by the U.S. Census Bureau, including a Metropolitan Statistical Area. To meet the well-defined local community requirement, the CBSA or a portion thereof, must be contiguous and have a population of 2.5 million or less people. An individual portion of a statistical area need not conform to internal boundaries within the area, such as metropolitan division boundaries within a Core-Based Statistical Area.
                        Compelling Evidence of Common Interests or Interaction—In lieu of a statistical area as defined above, this option is available when a credit union seeks to initially charter a community credit union; to expand an existing community; or to convert to a community charter. Under this option, the credit union must demonstrate that the areas in question are contiguous and further demonstrate a sufficient level of common interests or interaction among area residents to qualify the area as a local community. For that purpose, an applicant must submit for NCUA approval a narrative, supported by appropriate documentation, establishing that the area's residents meet the requirements of a local community. To assist a credit union in developing its narrative, Appendix 6 of this Manual identifies criteria a narrative should address, and which NCUA will consider in deciding a credit union's application to: initially charter a community credit union; to expand an existing community, including by an adjacent area addition; or to convert to a community charter. In any case, the credit union must demonstrate, through its business and marketing plans, its ability and commitment to serve the entire community for which it seeks NCUA approval. An area of any geographic size qualifies as a Rural District if: The proposed district has well-defined, contiguous geographic boundaries;
                        The total population of the proposed district does not exceed 1,000,000.
                        Either more than 50% of the proposed district's population resides in census blocks or other geographic units that are designated as rural by either the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau or the United States Census Bureau, OR the district has a population density of 100 persons or fewer per square mile; and
                        The boundaries of the well-defined rural district do not exceed the outer boundaries of the states that are*immediately contiguous*
                             to the state in which the credit union maintains its headquarters (
                            *i.e.,*
                             not to exceed the outer perimeter of the layer of states immediately surrounding the headquarters state). The common bond affinity groups that apply to well-defined local communities also apply to Rural Districts. The requirements in Chapter 2, Sections V.A.4 through V.G. also apply to a credit union that serves a rural district.
