Abstract: The Comptroller's Licensing Manual (Manual) explains the OCC's policies and procedures for the formation of a new national bank or Federal savings association, entry into the banking system by other institutions, and corporate expansion and structural changes by existing national banks and Federal savings associations. This ICR contains updates to a number of forms included in the Manual. The OCC will no longer consider NHPA (National Historic Preservation Act), NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) or SHPO (State Historic Preservation Office) matters as a part of the review of applications and is removing references to them in its branching and relocation forms.
