Title XI of the Financial Institutions
Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) (12 U.S.C. §
3331 et seq.) requires that, for federally related transactions,
regulated institutions obtain real estate appraisals performed by
certified or licensed appraisers in conformance with uniform
appraisal standards. The Board’s regulations implementing Title XI
of FIRREA, contained in the Board’s Regulation Y - Bank Holding
Companies and Change in Bank Control (12 CFR Part 225), include
certain recordkeeping requirements that apply to state member banks
(SMBs), bank holding companies (BHC), and nonbank subsidiaries of
BHCs that extend mortgage credit (together, institutions). The
Board and other supervisory agencies also have issued Interagency
Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines (the Guidelines) that convey
supervisory expectations relating to real estate appraisals and
evaluations used to support real estate-related financial
transactions. These Guidelines recommend that institutions adopt
certain policies and procedures to ensure compliance with Title XI
of FIRREA and Regulation Y.

The estimated total annual
burden for the FR Y-30 is 28,184 hours, and would increase to
28,340 hours with the revisions. The Board has used a more accurate
methodology for calculating the burden of the information
collection based on its experience. The Board is using (1) the
average number of loans per institution as the frequency and (2) 5
minutes as the estimated average time per response for the
appraisals or evaluations.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
