SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA is

soliciting comments on a proposed

guidance document entitled ‘‘Conduct

of Acute Toxicity Studies.’’ It is the goal

of this document to compile additional

guidance for the conduct of acute

toxicity studies into a supplement to the

Subdivision F Guidelines. It is expected

that such guidance, which currently

often must be pieced together from

several different sources, will reduce the

number of studies that are rejected or

flawed due to incorrect procedures or

insufficient reporting. While this should

help all registrants, it is being finalized

at this time because of the importance

of clear guidance for the success of the

self-certification program undergoing

comment at this time. This Federal

Register notice announces the

availability of the draft document and

solicits comment on it. In particular,

EPA is interested in comments on those

sections of the document where there

has been some disagreement or

uncertaintly between the various

contributors to the document. These

areas are highlighted in bold in the

document. After reviewing the public

comments received, EPA may make

changes to the guidance document.

A record has been established for this

action under docket number ‘‘OPP–

00440’’ (including comments and data

submitted electronically as described

below). A public version of this record,

including printed, paper versions of

electronic comments, which does not

include any information claimed as CBI,

is available for inspection from 8 a.m. to

4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday,

excluding legal holidays. The public

record is located in Rm. 1132 of the

Public Response and Program Resources

Branch, Field Operations Division

(7506C), Office of Pesticide Programs,

Environmental Protection Agency,

Crystal Mall #2, 1921 Jefferson Davis

Highway, Arlington, VA.

Electronic comments can be sent

printed, paper form as they are received

and will place the paper copies in the

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE

CORPORATION

Statement of Policy on Assistance to

Operating Insured Depository

Institutions

AGENCY: Federal Deposit Insurance

Corporation (FDIC).

ACTION: Policy statement; Notice of

opportunity for comment.

SUMMARY: The statement of policy

would revise the FDIC’s Statement of

Policy on Assistance to Operating

Insured Depository Institutions, which

was published in the Federal Register

on December 18, 1992 (the 1992 Policy

Statement) (see, 57 FR 60203 (December

18, 1992)). As required by section 303(a)

of the Riegle Community Development

and Regulatory Improvement Act of

1994 (the RCDRIA), the FDIC is

conducting a systematic review of its

regulations and statements of policy to

identify and revise regulations and

statements of policy that might be

inefficient, cause unnecessary burden,

or contain outmoded, duplicative, or

inconsistent provisions (see, 60 FR

62345 (December 6, 1995)). The FDIC

has reviewed the 1992 Policy Statement

and has concluded that it should be

revised. This revised statement of policy

would replace the 1992 Policy

Statement.

The statement of policy would (i)

reflect the statutory ‘‘sunset’’ of the

Resolution Trust Corporation on

December 31, 1995, by deleting

references to the Resolution Trust

Corporation’s statutory authority; (ii)

incorporate the requirements of section

11 of the Resolution Trust Corporation

Completion Act, P.L. 103–204, section

11 (1993), which revised section 11(a)(4)

of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as

amended (the FDI Act), 12 U.S.C.

1821(a)(4), to prohibit, with certain

exceptions, the use of funds from the

Bank Insurance Fund or the Savings

Association Insurance Fund to benefit

shareholders of a failed or failing

insured depository institution; thus, the

statement of policy would impact the

treatment of shareholders with regard to

FDIC assistance under section 13(c) of

the FDI Act to an operating insured

depository institution prior to the

appointment of a conservator or receiver

for that institution; (iii) provide that any

depository institution subsidiary of a

holding company may be included

when considering what entities may

contribute resources in connection with

a proposal for FDIC assistance; and (iv)

generally streamline the retained

provisions of the 1992 Policy Statement,

in pertinent part by removing certain

detailed discussions of section 13(k)(5)

of the FDI Act and various provisions

added to the FDI Act by the Federal

Deposit Insurance Corporation

Improvement Act of 1991.

DATES: Written comments must be

received on or before August 2, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should

be addressed to the Office of the

Executive Secretary, FDIC, 550 17th

Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20429.
