Feldman, Executive Secretary Attention: Comments/Executive Secretary Section Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Mr. Feldman: We, at Calvin B. Taylor Banking Company, Berlin, MD (certificate 05874) appreciate the regulatory effort under the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act (EGRPRA) to reduce our filing and compliance burdens. Specifically, we support the proposal to allow electronic retrieval of quarterly assessment data. We further support the elimination of a manually signed certification when the institution indicates agreement with the assessment amount by payment of that amount. Sincerely, Jennifer G.
