SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract and Request for Comments

    NCUA is requesting extension of the previously approved collection 
of information related to NCUA's regulation on PCA, 12 CFR part 702 
(Part 702), which provides the requirements for PCA for federally 
insured credit unions (FICUs). Section 216 of the Federal Credit Union 
Act (12 U.S.C. 1790d) mandates the requirements of PCA. Section 216 
requires the NCUA Board to (1) adopt, by regulation, a system of PCA to 
restore the net worth of inadequately capitalized FICUs; and (2) 
develop an alternative system of PCA for new credit unions that carries 
out the purpose of PCA while allowing reasonable time to build net 
worth to an adequate level. Part 702 implements the statutory mandate 
by establishing a system of PCA to restore the net worth of 
inadequately capitalized FICUs. To achieve this, various information 
collections are required on occasion as the circumstances require.
    NCUA requests that you send your comments on this information 
collection to the location listed in the ADDRESSES section. Your 
comments should address: (a) The necessity of the information 
collection for the proper performance of NCUA, including whether the 
information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of our 
estimate of the burden (hours and cost) of the collection of 
information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions 
used; (c) ways we could enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected; and (d) ways we could minimize the 
burden of the collection of the information on the respondents such as 
through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology. It is NCUA's policy to make all comments 
available to the public for review.
