    Title: Mergers of Federally-Insured Credit Unions; Voluntary 
Termination or Conversion of Insured Status, 12 CFR part 708b.
    Abstract: Part 708b of NCUA's rules sets forth the procedural and 
disclosure requirements for mergers of federally-insured credit unions, 
conversions from federal share insurance to nonfederal insurance, and 
federal share insurance terminations. Part 708b is designed to ensure 
NCUA has sufficient information whether to approve a proposed merger, 
share insurance conversion, or share insurance termination. It further 
ensures that members of credit unions have sufficient and accurate 
information to exercise their vote properly concerning a proposed 
merger, insurance conversion, or insurance termination. The rule also 
protects the property interests of members who may lose their federal 
share insurance due to a merger, share insurance conversion, or share 
insurance termination.
    Affected Public: Private Sector: Not-for-profit institutions.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 7,562.
    OMB Number: 3133-0068.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Title: Nondiscrimination Requirements in Real Estate-Related 
Lending--Appraisals, 12 CFR 701.31.
    Abstract: Section 701.31 of NCUA's regulations implements 
requirements of the Fair Housing Act. It requires Federal credit unions 
(FCUs) to maintain a copy of the real estate appraisal used to support 
an applicant's real estate-related loan application and to make it 
available to that member/applicant for a period of 25 months (Sec.  
701.31(c)(5)). The regulation also requires FCUs that use the 
collateral's location as a factor in evaluating real estate-related 
loan applications to disclose such fact on the appraisal, along with a 
statement justifying its use (Sec.  701.31 (c)(4)). NCUA and consumers 
use the information to ensure compliance with Fair Housing Act 
nondiscrimination requirements that prohibit consideration of race, 
color, religion, national origin, sex, handicap, or familial status in 
real estate appraisals.
    Affected Public: Private Sector: Not-for-profit institutions.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 3,721.

Union Administration, on December 20, 2016.
