SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 30, 2021, FCA published an ANPRM in 
the Federal Register seeking public comment on whether and how we 
should amend our liquidity regulations for System banks so they can 
better withstand crises that adversely impact liquidity and pose risks 
to their viability. The comment period is currently scheduled to close 
on September 28, 2021. See 86 FR 34645. On July 28, 2021, FCA received 
a request to extend the comment period for an additional 60 days. FCA 
is granting this request, and accordingly, the comment period is 
extended until November 27, 2021.

    Dated: August 30, 2021.
Dale Aultman,
Secretary, Farm Credit Administration Board.
