 Subject: EGRPRA
 I operate a small rural
              institution. I own 100% of the bank holding company that own 99.6%
              of the bank. I am one of three directors,
            CEO, CFO, President, Executive Loan Officer, Personell Officer, and
            overall Janitorial Supervisor. I create: (1) unnecessary policies
            that indicate I will comply with "compliance-mandated" FDIC
            regulation; (2) policies that have to outline procedures that mandate
            compliance with the compliance policy and give me, the President,
            Management oversight authority over my loan committee and loan department
            of which I am senior authority of both; (3) a loan policy that dictates
            my lending authority and limits and dictates that I cannot lend in
            excess of this authority without senior management and directorship
            authority, of which I am the senior member of both, again.
 My point: Why can't it be possible to consolidate this over-paperworked
              mess for institutions in this situation. Most regulations and policy
              mandates are designed for the mega-mergered; muli-officed; duty/personell
              disected insitutitions that have no clue what the left hand is
              doing to the right hand? Greg Peter, Pres (etc,etc,etc), Citizens
