Federal Housing Finance Agency. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Federal Housing Finance Agency

(FHFA)adopts final regulations containing a description of its organization and description of its seal and logo. This rule removes comparable existing regulations of the Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) and the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO), and establishes new FHFA regulations. DATES: *Effective Date:* December 10, 2012. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Donna R. Ely, Associate General Counsel, Office of the General Counsel,

(202)649-3068 (not a toll free number), *Donna.Ely@fhfa.gov,* 400 Seventh Street SW., Eighth Floor, Washington, DC 20024. The telephone number for the Telecommunications Device for the Hearing Impaired is

(800)877-8339. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Effective July 30, 2008, Division A of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA), Public Law 110-289, 122 Stat. 2654 (2008), titled the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008, amended the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (12 U.S.C. 4501 *et seq.* ) (Safety and Soundness Act) and created FHFA as an independent agency of the Federal Government. HERA provided for the abolishment of the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) and the Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) one year after the date of enactment. Those agencies, together with the Housing and Urban Development Enterprise mission staff, were combined to establish FHFA. FHFA was established to oversee the prudential operations of the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) (together, Enterprises), and the Federal Home Loan Banks (Banks); and to ensure that they operate in a safe and sound manner, remain adequately capitalized, foster liquid, efficient, competitive and resilient national housing finance markets, comply with the Safety and Soundness Act and their respective authorizing statutes, as well as all rules, regulations, guidelines and orders under those statutes, and carry out their missions through activities that are authorized by their respective statutes and are consistent with the public interest. FHFA also has regulatory authority over the Federal Home Loan Bank System's Office of Finance under section 1311(b)(2) of the Safety and Soundness Act (12 U.S.C. 4511(b)(2)). II. Description of the Regulation The rule sets forth FHFA's business address and hours of operation. The rule also informs the public about FHFA's organization and structure, including the Office of the Director, the Division of Enterprise Regulation, the Division of Housing Mission and Goals, the Division of Federal Home Loan Bank Regulation, the Office of Inspector General, the Office of General Counsel, the Office of the Ombudsman, and the Office of Minority and Women Inclusion. The rule describes and depicts FHFA's official logo and seal. FHFA is removing the comparable regulations of the Finance Board and OFHEO, 12 CFR part 905 of the Finance Board regulations and 12 CFR part 1700 of the OFHEO regulations. II. Regulatory Impact Paperwork Reduction Act This final rule does not contain any information collection requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 *et seq.).* Regulatory Flexibility Act Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is required for this regulation, the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 *et seq.* ) do not apply. *See* 5 U.S.C. 601(2) and 603(a). Administrative Procedure Act In promulgating this regulation, FHFA has determined that notice and public comment are not necessary. Section 553(b)(A) of title 5, United States Code, provides that when regulations involve matters of agency organization, procedure or practice, the agency may publish regulations in final form. In addition, FHFA finds, in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(d), that a delayed effective date is unnecessary. Accordingly, these regulations are effective upon publication. List of Subjects 12 CFR Part 905 Federal home loan banks, Organization and functions (Government agencies). 12 CFR Part 1200 Organization and functions (Government agencies), Seals and insignia. 12 CFR Part 1700 Organization and functions (Government agencies). Authority and Issuance Accordingly, for the reasons stated in the Supplementary Information, under the authority of 12 U.S.C. 4526, 12 U.S.C. 4512, and 5 U.S.C. 552, FHFA amends Chapters IX, XII, and XVII of title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations as follows: Chapter IX—Federal Housing Finance Board PART 905—[REMOVED] 1.
