FDIC Enforcement Decisions and Orders {{5-31-03 p.C-5716}} Respondents agree to pay civil money penalty assessed by the FDIC in the amount of $27,000. In the Matter of
Cowlitz Bank, Longview, Washington ("Respondent"), has been advised of the right to receive a NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT OF CIVIL MONEY PENALTY, FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, ORDER TO PAY, NOTICE OF HEARING ("NOTICE") issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") detailing the violations for which a civil money penalty may be assessed against Respondent pursuant to section 8(i)(2) of Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("Act"), 12 U.S.C. §1818(i)(2), section 305 of the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act ("HMDA"), 12 U.S.C. §2804, and section 203.6 of Regulation C of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 12 C.F.R. §203.6, and has been further advised of the right to a hearing on the alleged charges under section 8(i) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. §1818(i), and the FDIC's Rules of Practice and Procedures, 12 C.F.R. Part 308. Having waived those rights, the Respondent entered into a STIPULATION AND CONSENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF AN ORDER TO PAY CIVIL MONEY PENALTY ("AGREEMENT") with a representative of the Legal Division of the FDIC, whereby solely for the purpose of this proceeding and without admitting or denying any violations, Respondent consented and agreed to pay a civil money penalty in the amount of $27,000.00, related to its inaccurate submission of the application and loan data for calendar years 2000 and 2001 required by HMDA. The FDIC considered the matter and determined it had reason to believe
that the Respondent has engaged or participated in violations of law or
regulation for which a civil money penalty of twenty-seven thousand
dollars ($27,000) is appropriate to be
assessed against the Respondent pursuant to section 8(i)(2) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. §1818(i)(2). The FDIC, therefore, accepted the AGREEMENT and issued the following: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Respondent be, and hereby is, assessed a civil money penalty of $27,000.00 pursuant to section 8(i)(2) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. §1818(i)(2), the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged. Pursuant to delegated authority. Dated at Washington, D.C., this 21st day of March, 2003.
