Prompt Corrective Action, 12 CFR 702 (Subparts A-D)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 216 of the Federal Credit Union Act (12 U.S.C. §1790d) mandates prompt corrective action requirements for federally insured credit unions (FICUs) that become less than well capitalized. The NCUA Board is required to (1) adopt, by regulation, a system of prompt corrective action to restore the net worth of inadequately capitalized FICUs; and (2) develop an alternative system of prompt corrective action for new credit unions that carries out the purpose of prompt corrective actions while allowing an FICU reasonable time to build its net worth to an adequately capitalized level. Part 702 implements the statutory requirements and, to achieve this, various information collections to meet the purpose of prompt corrective action as circumstances require.

Truth in Savings (TISA), 12 CFR Part 707

Key Information

Abstract

NCUA’s TISA regulation requires credit unions to provide specific disclosures when an account is opened, when a disclosed term changes or a term account is close to renewal, on periodic statements of account activity, in advertisements, and upon a member’s or potential member’s request. 12 CFR 707.4, 707.5, 707.6, 707.8. Credit unions that provide periodic statements are required to include information about fees imposed, the annual percentage yield earned during those statement periods, and other account terms. The requirements for creating and disseminating account disclosures, change in terms notices, term share renewal notices, statement disclosures, and advertising disclosures are necessary to implement TISA’s purpose of providing the public with information that will permit informed comparisons of accounts at depository institutions.

Applicant Organizational National Provider Identifiers and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Certification Numbers Form

Key Information

Abstract

HRSA is proposing a new form to collect organizational National Provider Identifiers (Type 2 NPIs) and CMS Certification Numbers (CCNs) from organizations that apply for HRSA award funding through Grants.gov. This collection is authorized under section 301 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 241), which authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to conduct and support research, investigations, experiments, demonstrations, and studies relating to the causes, diagnosis, treatment, control, and prevention of disease, and to collect and make available information on those activities, including the provision of technical assistance on statistical methods. The authority for this collection is 42 U.S.C. 241. The form will be completed as part of the Grants.gov funding application. This collection is limited to organizational identifiers and will only collect an NPI and/or CCN only from organizations that already have one. An organization is not required to have, or to obtain, an NPI or CCN in order to apply for or receive HRSA funding, and individual applicants (persons) are not asked to provide an individual (Type 1) NPI. The purpose of this proposed collection is to strengthen the evidence HRSA uses to understand how it meets its mission of improving health outcomes through access to quality services, a skilled health workforce, and innovative, high-value programs. The circumstance making this collection necessary is that HRSA currently lacks an identifier that reliably and consistently identifies funded organizations across its many programs and across externally available healthcare delivery system data. All applicants for HRSA funding through Grants.gov must obtain a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) from SAM.gov before beginning a funding application. The UEI identifies the legal entity that receives an award, but it is not used in healthcare transactions and does not appear in CMS claims, encounter, certification, or quality datasets. As a result, HRSA cannot use the UEI to connect its award and program data to the external healthcare delivery system. Organizational NPIs and CCNs address this gap because they are already embedded as standard provider-identity keys in widely used, publicly available CMS datasets.

Generic Clearance for Improving Customer Experience: OMB Circular A–11, Section 280 Implementation) (CMS-10710)

Key Information

Abstract

In March 2018, the Administration of President Trump launched the President’s Management Agenda (PMA) and established new Cross-Agency Priority (CAP) Goals. Excellent service was established as a core component of the mission, service, stewardship model that frames the entire PMA, embedding a customer-focused approach in all of the PMA’s initiatives. This model was also included in the 2018 update of the Federal Performance Framework in Circular A-11, ensuring ‘excellent service’ as a focus in future agency strategic planning efforts. The PMA included a CAP Goal on Improving Customer Experience with Federal Services, with a primary strategy to drive improvements within 25 of the nation’s highest impact programs. This effort is supported by an interagency team and guidance in Circular A-11 requiring the collection of customer feedback data and increasing the use of industry best practices to conduct customer research. These Presidential actions and requirements establish an ongoing process of collecting customer insights and using them to improve services. This new request will enable the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (hereafter the Agency) to act in accordance with OMB Circular A-11 Section 280 to ultimately transform the experience of its customers to improve both efficiency and mission delivery, and increase accountability by communicating about these efforts with the public.

Response to Office Action and Voluntary Amendment Forms

Key Information

Abstract

This collection of information is required by the Trademark Act (Act), 15 U.S.C. § 1051 et seq., which provides for the registration of trademarks, service marks, collective trademark and service marks, collective membership marks, and certification marks. Individuals and businesses that use or intend to use such marks in commerce may file an application to register their marks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). This information collection generally contains information that is not submitted with the initial trademark application but is associated with, or required for, the USPTO review of applications for registration. In some cases, the USPTO issues Office Actions to applicants who have applied to register a mark, to request information that was not provided with the initial submission but is required before the issuance of a registration. Also, the USPTO may determine that a mark is not entitled to registration, pursuant to one or more provisions of the Act. In such cases, the USPTO will issue an Office Action advising the applicant of the refusal to register the mark. Applicants reply to these Office Actions by providing the required information and/or by putting forth legal arguments as to why the refusal of registration should be withdrawn. The USPTO administers the Act through Title 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These rules allow the USPTO to request and receive information required to process applications. These rules also allow applicants to submit certain amendments to their applications. Applicants may also supplement their applications and provide further information by filing a Voluntary Amendment Not in Response to USPTO Office Action/Letter, a Request for Reconsideration after Final Office Action, a Post-Approval/Publication/Post-Notice of Allowance (NOA) Amendment, a Petition to Amend Basis Post-Publication, or a Response to Suspension Inquiry or Letter of Suspension.

On July 20, 2023, the Commission adopted Amendment of Parts 73 and 74 of the Commission’s Rules to Establish Rules for Digital Low Power Television and Television Translator Stations, Fifth Report and Order, FCC 23-58 (rel. July 20, 2023) (FM6 Report and Order). The Commission adopted a new requirement that FM6 LPTV stations certify in their license renewal application that they have continued to provide FM6 operations in accordance with the FM6 rules during their prior license term. The Commission delegated authority to the Media Bureau to determine the most appropriate means for these stations to make such certification, be it by an attachment to the renewal application or some other reasonable means. This requirement is contained in 47 CFR 74.790(o)(10). This submission was made to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval of the renewal certification requirement for FM6 LPTV stations as adopted in the FM6 Report and Order. Since the certification will be included as an additional exhibit to the existing form, it did not necessitate changes to LMS Form 2100 Schedule 303-S.
