Title: Proof of Concept Application (POC) for New Charter
Organizing Groups.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: The Office of Credit Union Resources and Expansion (CURE)
is responsible for the review and approval of charter applications
submitted by organizing groups. CURE has implemented a charter
modernization process to improve the quality of charter applications
received. This will help ensure organizing groups submit a well-thought
out, well-developed charter plan to minimize the back-and-forth
communication and improve overall chartering processing times. CURE
management implemented the Proof of Concept (POC) data collection
through the CyberGrants system, which documents the four most critical
elements for establishing a new charter. This is ``Phase 1'' of the
process. The CyberGrants system is accessed online.
The four areas are usually the greatest challenge for organizers to
accomplish.
[[Page 22953]]
When the organizers successfully address the four critical elements,
organizing groups are invited to proceed to ``Phase 2'', submission of
most remaining charter documents and plans.
The ``Phase 1'' data is reviewed by NCUA to determine the adequacy
of a group's chartering concept and to provide guidance as needed. The
purpose of this information collection is to identify the level of
understanding an organizing group has before they make a formal charter
application submission as prescribed by Appendix B to 12 CFR part 701
(12 U.S.C. 1758, 1759).
Affected Public: Private Sector: Not-for-profit institutions.
Estimated No. of Respondents: 26.
Estimated No. of Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Total Annual Responses: 26.
Estimated Burden Hours per Response: 4.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 104.
Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and included in the request for Office of Management
and Budget approval. All comments will become a matter of public
record. The public is invited to submit comments concerning: (a)
Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper
execution of the function of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information,
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
the information on the respondents, including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
By Melane Conyers-Ausbrooks, Secretary of the Board, the National
Credit Union Administration, on April 12, 2022.
Dated: April 13, 2022.

NCUA PRA Clearance Officer.
