ensuring that the bank’s investment is
consistent with its investment authority
under applicable law and does not pose
unacceptable risk. Under 12 CFR 1.7(b),

approval to extend the five-year holding
period for securities held in satisfaction
of debts previously contracted for up to

convincing demonstration of why the
additional holding period is needed.
The OCC uses the information in the
request to ensure, on a case-by-case
basis, that the bank’s purpose in
retaining the securities is not
speculative and that the bank’s reasons
for requesting the extension are
adequate. The OCC also uses the
information to evaluate the risks to the
bank in extending the holding period,
including potential effects on the bank’s
safety and soundness.

currently approved collection.

for-profit.

(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper

has practical utility; (b) The accuracy of
the OCC’s estimate of the burden of the
collection of information; (c) Ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; (d)
Ways to minimize the burden of the

conditions are satisfied. In order to
reduce benefits, the plan sponsor is
required to submit an application to the
Secretary of the Treasury, which must
be approved or denied in consultation
with the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation (PBGC) and the Department
of Labor.
On December 15, 2020, the Roofers
Local No. 88 Pension Fund’s Board of
Trustees submitted an application for
approval to reduce benefits under the
plan. As required by MPRA, that
application has been published on

The purpose of the closed session is
to provide recommendations on the
scientific quality, budget, safety and
mission relevance of investigatorinitiated research applications
submitted for VA merit review
evaluation. Applications submitted for
review include various medical
specialties within the general areas of
biomedical, behavioral and clinical
science research. The JBL/CS SMRB
meeting will be closed to the public for
the review, discussion, and evaluation
of initial and renewal research
applications, which involve reference to
staff and consultant critiques of research
applications. Discussions will deal with
scientific merit of each application and
qualifications of personnel conducting
the studies, the disclosure of which
would constitute a clearly unwarranted
invasion of personal privacy.
Additionally, premature disclosure of
research information could significantly
obstruct implementation of proposed
agency action regarding the research
applications. As provided by subsection
10(d) of Public Law 92–463, as amended
by Public Law 94–409, closing the
subcommittee meetings is in accordance
with Title 5 U.S.C. 552b(c) (6) and
(9)(B).
Members of the public who wish to
attend the open JBL/CS SMRB meeting
should join via WebEx at: Meeting
