SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.),
Federal agencies must obtain approval from the OMB for each collection
of information that they conduct or sponsor. ``Collection of
information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to
include agency requests or requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of title 44 generally requires Federal agencies
to provide a
[[Page 20551]]
60-day notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed
collection of information, including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information, before submitting the collection to
OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, the OCC is
publishing notice of the renewal/revision of this collection.
Title: Interagency Appraisal Complaint Form.
OMB Control No.: 1557-0314.
Type of Review: Regular.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
Description: Section 1473(p) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act \1\ provides that if the Appraisal
Subcommittee (ASC) of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination
Council (FFIEC) determines, six months after enactment of that section
(i.e., January 21, 2011), that no national hotline exists to receive
complaints of non-compliance with appraisal independence standards and
Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), then the
ASC shall establish and operate such a hotline (ASC Hotline). The ASC
Hotline shall include a toll-free telephone number and an email
address. Section 1473(p) further directs the ASC to refer complaints
received through the ASC Hotline to the appropriate government bodies
for further action, which may include referrals to OCC, the Federal
Reserve Board (Board), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(FDIC), the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the Bureau of
Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB), and state agencies. The ASC
determined that a national appraisal hotline did not exist at a meeting
held on January 12, 2011, and a notice of that determination was
published in the Federal Register on January 28, 2011, (76 FR 5161). As
a result, the ASC established a hotline to refer complaints to
appropriate state and Federal regulators.

\1\ Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
section 1473, Public Law 111-203, 124 Stat. 1376, July 21, 2010; 12
U.S.C. 3351(i).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Representatives from the OCC, the Board, the FDIC, the NCUA
(Agencies), and the CFPB met and established a process to facilitate
the referral of complaints received through the ASC Hotline to the
appropriate Federal financial institution regulatory agency or
agencies. The Agencies developed the Interagency Appraisal Complaint
Form to collect information necessary to take further action on the
complaint. The CFPB incorporated the process into one of their existing
systems.
The Interagency Appraisal Complaint Form was developed for use by
those who wish to file a formal, written complaint that an entity
subject to the jurisdiction of one or more of the Agencies has failed
to comply with the appraisal independence standards or USPAP. The
Interagency Appraisal Complaint Form is designed to collect information
necessary for the Agencies to take further action on a complaint from
an appraiser, other individual, financial institution, or other
entities. The Agencies use the information to take further action on
the complaint to the extent the complaint relates to an issue within
their jurisdiction.
Estimated Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 65.
Estimated Burden per Response: 0.5 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 32.5 hours.
Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized
and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will become
a matter of public record. Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of the OCC, including whether the
information 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 collection on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology; and
(e) Estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.
Patrick T. Tierney,
Assistant Director, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
