In the Matter of

ORDER TO PAY CIVIL MONEY PENALTY
FDIC-04-079k
OCONEE STATE BANK, WATKINSVILLE, GEORGIA ("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, AND 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 the 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 Procedure, 12
C.F.R. Part 308. Having waived those rights, the Respondent entered
into a STIPULATION
{{7-31-04 p.C-6084}
AND CONSENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF AN ORDER TO PAY CIVIL
MONEY PENALTY ("CONSENT 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
$4,500.00, related to its inaccurate submission of the application and
loan data for calendar years 2001 and 2002 as 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 FOUR THOUSAND FIVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS ($4,500.00) 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:
ORDER TO PAY CIVIL MONEY PENALTY
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Respondent be, and hereby is, assessed a
civil money penalty of $4,500.00 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 this 11th day of May, 2004.
