SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 
                    *et seq.*), Federal agencies must obtain approval from the OMB for each collection of information that they conduct or sponsor. “Collection of information” is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to include agency requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     concerning each proposed collection of information, including each proposed extension of an existing collection of information, before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, the OCC is publishing notice of the renewal of the following collection of information set forth in this document. OMB provided emergency clearance for the collection on November 25, 2020. *Title:*
                     CRA Information Collection Survey. *OMB Control No.:*
                     1557-0348. *Affected Public:*
                     Businesses or other for-profit. *Type of Review:*
                     Renewal. *Abstract:*
                     On June 5, 2020, the OCC published a final rule in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     that makes comprehensive changes to the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulatory framework designed to ensure that the CRA remains a relevant and powerful tool for encouraging banks to serve the needs of their communities, particularly low- or moderate-income (LMI) neighborhoods, consistent with banks' safe and sound operations.[2]
                    
                     As the final rule describes, the agency modernized and strengthened the CRA regulatory framework to better achieve the underlying statutory purpose of encouraging banks to help serve their communities by making the framework more objective, transparent, consistent, and easy to understand. To accomplish these goals, the final rule strengthened the CRA regulations in four key areas by (1) clarifying which activities qualify for CRA credit; (2) updating where activities count for CRA credit; (3) creating a more consistent and objective method for measuring CRA performance; and (4) providing for more timely and transparent CRA-related data collection, recordkeeping, and reporting. The final rule provided a new evaluation framework (
                    *i.e.,*
                     the general performance standards) for banks with assets of $2.5 billion or more that are not wholesale or limited purpose banks and do not operate under an approved strategic plan.[3]
                    
                     However, the final rule did not provide the CRA evaluation measure benchmarks, retail lending distribution test thresholds, and community development (CD) minimums under the general performance standards. The OCC plans to determine these benchmarks, thresholds, and minimums through separate rulemaking. In order to calibrate the benchmarks, thresholds, and minimums, the OCC seeks information to assist in determining current and historical levels of CRA activity. Specifically, this information collection seeks bank-specific data and information to supplement available data. This information collection 
                    ( print page 81271)
                    applies only to banks with assets of $2.5 billion or more that are subject to the general performance standards under the CRA final rule. Information Collection The OCC seeks information to assist in determining the CRA evaluation measure benchmarks, retail lending distribution test thresholds, and CD minimums under the final rule that will correspond to the presumptive ratings. As discussed in the Supplementary Information section to the final rule, the OCC analyzed currently available data to estimate how banks would have performed under the proposed rule's framework.[4]
                    
                     The final rule did not finalize the benchmarks, thresholds, or minimums as proposed. Instead, as explained in the Supplementary Information section to the final rule, the OCC plans to issue a separate notice of proposed rulemaking to determine the benchmarks, thresholds, and minimums that will correspond to the presumptive ratings in the final rule. This information collection seeks bank-specific data and information to supplement the agency's analyses and currently available data. Specifically, it requests four types of bank data or information: (1) Retail domestic deposit and assessment area data; (2) qualifying activities data; (3) branch information; and (4) retail loan application and origination data. The data should contain information from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2019. The final rule provides additional information (
                    *e.g.,*
                     definitions, qualifying activities criteria, etc.) to inform what is requested below. Respondents must answer all of the questions below. If a respondent does not have the data available, the respondent must submit a separate statement that explains the reason(s) the respondent does not have the data requested. If a respondent has significant difficulty in submitting any of the data requested, the OCC will work with the respondent through the appropriate supervisory channels in order to help the respondent comply with this information collection to the extent possible. All information should be in a comma delimited file, using the same nomenclature as in the data name field, and dollar values should be in 1000s without any comma separators (
                    *e.g.,*
                     $5,000,000 should be reported as 5000, not 5,000). Standard Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) codes should be used for geographic data, and the following codes should be used, unless otherwise instructed: -99—Information not available
                -98—Not applicable (*e.g.,*
                     geographic area is not part of a facility-based assessment area)
                -99999—Not part of a metropolitan statistical area (MSA) For each subsection of this information collection, we first describe the data elements requested and then illustrate how the data should be formatted in a table immediately following the text. Retail Domestic Deposit and Assessment Area Data A bank's main office, branch, and deposit-taking facility locations and retail domestic deposit data are required to determine its assessment area delineations, performance under the general performance standards, and presumptive ratings in §§ 25.09 through 25.13 of the final rule. The following data will supplement existing data and assist the OCC. 1. What is the bank's total amount of retail domestic deposits received, by county, for each quarter-end? As defined in § 25.03 of the final rule, retail domestic deposits include deposits, as that term is defined in section 3(I) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1813(I)) that are reported on Schedule RC-E, item 1 or item 3, of the Call Report or that are non-brokered “reciprocal deposits” as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1831(f)(i)(2)(E) for the institution sending the non-brokered “reciprocal deposits.” However, retail domestic deposits do not include deposits that are: (1) Obtained, directly or indirectly, from or through the mediation or assistance of a “deposit broker” as that term is defined in section 29 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1831f(g)); (2) originated from an affiliated or non-affiliated broker-dealer sweep transaction; (3) held in a Health Savings Account established in accordance with 26 U.S.C. 223; (4) held in a prepaid card account established in accordance with 12 CFR 1005.1 
                    *et seq.;*
                     or (5) non-brokered reciprocal deposits as defined in 12 U.S.C. 1831(f)(i)(2)(E) for the institution receiving a non-brokered “reciprocal deposit.” The county should be assigned based on the accountholder's physical address, not the location of the branch that accepted the deposit. 2. Assign and provide a unique numerical identification (ID) to each facility-based or deposit-based assessment area, as defined in the final rule. As discussed in § 25.09(b) of the final rule, a bank must delineate facility-based assessment areas encompassing the location where the bank maintains its main office, branches, or non-branch deposit-taking facilities, other than deposit-taking automated teller machines (ATMs),[5]
                    
                     as well as the surrounding locations in which the bank has originated or purchased a substantial portion of its loans. A bank also may, but is not required to, delineate facility-based assessment areas based on its deposit-taking ATMs.[6]
                    
                     Branch, ATM, and non-branch deposit-taking facility are defined in § 25.03 of the final rule. Facility-based assessment areas will be comprised of one of the following: (1) A whole MSA; (2) the whole nonmetropolitan area of a state; (3) one or more whole, contiguous metropolitan divisions (MD) in a single MSA; or (4) one or more whole, contiguous counties or county equivalents in a single MSA or nonmetropolitan area. Under § 25.09(c) of the final rule, a bank that receives 50 percent or more of its retail domestic deposits from geographic areas outside of its facility-based assessment areas must delineate separate, non-overlapping assessment areas where it receives five percent or more of its retail domestic deposits. Deposit-based assessment areas will be comprised of one of the following: (1) A whole state; (2) one whole MSA; (3) the whole nonmetropolitan area of a state; (4) one or more whole, contiguous MDs in a single MSA; (5) the remaining geographic area of a state, MSA, nonmetropolitan area, or MD other than where it has a facility-based assessment area; or (6) one or more whole, contiguous counties or county equivalents in a single MSA or nonmetropolitan area. 3. For the data above, provide county, MD/MSA, and state FIPS codes. 4. For the data above, report whether there is a main office, branch, deposit-taking ATM, and/or non-branch deposit-taking facility other than an ATM, as detailed in Table 1, Columns 5-8. 5. Are there burdens associated with collecting or reporting the data described in this section of this information collection?

 Total Qualifying Activities As discussed in the final rule and this information collection, the dollar value of a bank's qualifying activities is required to determine the CRA evaluation measure under § 25.11 of the final rule, which in turn determines a bank's presumptive ratings under § 25.13 of the final rule. The following data will supplement existing data and assist the OCC. 6. Calculate and report the sum, at the county level, of the quantified dollar value of all quarter-end balances for each type of qualifying loan or CD investment held on the balance sheet. Calculate and report the sum of the quantified dollar value, at the county level, for other CD investments (
                    *i.e.,*
                     CD investment funds that are quantified under § 25.07(d)(3) of the final rule and monetary and in-kind donations) and CD services made or provided in each quarter. For each activity, determine the county pursuant to § 25.24 of the final rule. Note that the quantified dollar value does not include multipliers. The OCC will apply the multipliers, where feasible and as applicable. Exclude any retail loans sold within 365 days of origination by the bank. Qualifying activity means an activity that meets the criteria in § 25.04 of the final rule. Qualifying activities include qualifying loans, CD investments, and CD services. Qualifying loan means a retail loan, as defined in § 25.03 of the final rule, that meets the criteria in § 25.04(b) of the final rule or a CD loan, as defined in § 25.03 of the final rule. Section 25.03 of the final rule defines a retail loan as a home mortgage loan, small loan to a business, small loan to a farm, or consumer loan; each of these loans is defined in § 25.03 of the final rule. In particular, “consumer loan” means a loan reported on the Call Report, Schedule RC-C, Loans and Lease Financing Receivables, Part 1, Item 6, Loans to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures other than overdraft plans, that is an automobile loan, other revolving credit plan, or other consumer loan; credit cards are not included. CD investments and CD services are also defined in § 25.03 of the final rule. Section 25.07 of the final rule provides information on how to calculate the quantified dollar value of qualifying activities. The quantified dollar value of a partially qualifying activity includes only the portion of the activity that is qualifying. Qualifying activities should be attributed to locations based on § 25.24 of the final rule, which provides information on how to determine a qualifying activity's location. For example, § 25.24(b) of the final rule 
                    ( print page 81273)
                    requires banks to allocate credit for CD activities in two ways: (1) To an assessment area within a broader area served by an activity if the bank can document the services or funding it provided was allocated to a particular project that is within or serves the assessment area; or if that cannot be documented (2) across all of the areas served by the activity, according to the share of the bank's deposits in those areas, treating the bank's deposits in the region served by the activity as if they were all of the bank's deposits. 7. Calculate and report the sum, at the county level, of the quantified dollar value of all quarter-end balances for each type of retail loan generated by branches in LMI tracts.[7] 8. For Table 1, Columns 11-14 and 27-30, please include the mortgage and consumer loans only if the borrower income status is available or the loan is located in Indian country or other tribal and native lands. 9. Are there burdens associated with collecting or reporting the data described in this section of this information collection?

 Applications and Loan Originations for Each Retail Lending Product Line As discussed in the final rule, the quantified dollar value is required to determine the CRA evaluation measure under § 25.11 of the final rule. Additionally, the loan volume of a bank's qualifying activities is required for the retail lending distribution tests under § 25.12 of the final rule. Both the CRA evaluation measure and the retail lending distribution tests will in turn help determine a bank's presumptive ratings under § 25.13 of the final rule. Obtaining information on retail loan applications and originations will, in the near term, help inform the OCC about banks' credit supply decisions across geographies, supplement existing data, and assist the OCC in assessing the CRA evaluation measure under § 25.11 of the final rule and the retail lending distribution tests under § 25.12 of the final rule. Over time, it will assist the OCC in further developing its thinking on how to refine and improve the CRA framework.[8] 12. Report all retail loans applications. 13. For each retail loan origination, provide the unique loan identification number. 14. For each retail loan application, provide the following geographic information for the location of the loan application at the time of submission: County, MD/MSA, state, census tract, and the facility-based or deposit-based assessment area number (using the same set of unique assessment area identification numbers as in Table 1). The location of a loan application should be determined in a manner consistent with § 25.24 of the final rule. For example, the location of an application for a home mortgage loan would be determined by the address of the property to which the loan relates. 15. For each retail loan application, provide the loan type, and if the loan was originated, provide balance at origination, origination date, and sell date. 16. For each mortgage and consumer loan application, provide the income of the applicant(s). For each loan application for a home mortgage or consumer loan, indicate the LMI status of the applicant. For each loan application from a business or farm, provide the revenue of the business or farm at the time of submission; additionally, for these loan applications, provide an indicator of the business or farm's revenue category. 17. For each retail loan origination, indicate whether the loan was generated by a branch located in an LMI census tract. 18.
