Federal R eserve Bank OF DALLAS WILLIAM H. W ALLACE November 20, 1985 DALLAS, TEXAS 75222 FIR S T VICE P R E S ID E N T Circular 85-135 TO: All depository institutions in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District SUBJECT Fee and availability schedule for commercial check services DETAILS Effective January 1, 1986, a new fee schedule for check services will be implemented at all Federal Reserve Banks. The new schedule is projected to fully recover all operating and float costs as well as the private sector adjustment factor throughout 1986. With few exceptions, check processing fees in alldistricts are virtually unchanged for the second consecutive year. This shows the stability, consistency and continued improvement in the efficient delivery of Federal Reserve services. Information about deposit deadlines, availability and new prices for check services offered to in-zone depositors at each of the four Eleventh District offices is provided in the enclosure. Availability schedules and prices for interterritory check collection services offered by other Federal Reserve Banks are available upon request. These include the direct send service--where a depository institution arranges its own transportation to another Federal Reserve office--and the consolidated shipment service--where the depository institution deposits items at the local Reserve Bank for shipment to other Federal Reserve offices using our transportation network. ATTACHMENTS The check collection service and fee schedule is attached. MORE INFORMATION For additional information, please contact Robert L. Whitman, (214) 698-4357 at the Head Office; Robert W.
