43736 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 158 / Friday, August 15, 1997 / Notices

Small businesses are affected.

General description of report: This

information collection is mandatory (12

U.S.C. 248(a), 461, 603, 615, and

3105(b)(2)) and is given confidential

treatment under the Freedom of

Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)).

Abstract: This package of reports

collects information on: deposits and

related items from depository

institutions that have transaction

accounts or nonpersonal time deposits

and that are not fully exempt from

reserve requirements (‘‘nonexempt

institutions’’) (FR 2900); Eurocurrency

transactions from depository

institutions that obtain funds from

foreign (non-U.S.) sources or that

maintain foreign branches (FR 2950, FR

2951); and selected items on the FR

2900 in advance from samples of

nonexempt institutions on a daily basis

(FR 2000) and on a weekly basis (FR

2001). The Federal Reserve has raised

the deposit cutoff used to determine

weekly versus quarterly FR 2900

reporting (the ‘‘nonexempt deposit

cutoff’’) above its indexed level of $59.3

million to $75.0 million. The higher

cutoff will result in a potential shift of

almost 1,000 reporters from weekly to

quarterly FR 2900 reporting and a

significant reduction in annual

reporting burden. No revisions to the

content of any of the reports have been

made. Information provided by these

reports is used for administering

Regulation D—Reserve Requirements of

Depository Institutions; or for

constructing, analyzing, and controlling

the monetary and reserves aggregates; or

both.

The Agency for Toxic Substances and

Disease Registry announces the

following workshop.

Name: Expert Panel Workshop on the

Feasibility of Measuring Stress Related

to Exposure to Hazardous Waste.

Times and Dates: 7:30 a.m.–6:15 p.m.,

September 10, 1997. 8 a.m–12 noon,

room accommodates approximately 175

people.

Purpose: The Agency for Toxic

Substances and Disease Registry

(ATSDR) is considering the feasibility of

measuring stress related to exposure to

hazardous waste sites and releases. The

purpose of the expert panel workshop is

to provide a forum for ATSDR to solicit

individual expert consultation on issues

of science and public health practice

regarding the best means to assess levels

of psychosocial stress in communities

affected by hazardous waste sites and

releases. The workshop will also

provide a forum for scientists, public

health officials, and community

members to discuss the ethical and

social issues associated with measuring

stress at hazardous waste sites and the

implications for public health policy.

Matters To Be Considered: Expert

panel members will be assigned into

two work groups: (1) Stress

Measurement Panel and (2) Community

and Public Health Panel. The two

groups will meet concurrently during

the workshop. The following tasks will

be suggested: (1) examine current

research approaches and assessment

tools for the measurement of

psychosocial stress at hazardous waste

sites and identify the most effective

methods for assessing psychosocial

stress at these sites and (2) discuss the

social and ethical issues of measuring

stress in communities affected by

hazardous waste and the implications

for public health policy.

Agenda items are subject to change as

priorities dictate.
