Circular No. 83-12
January 14, 1983

REGULATION Q
TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF EARLY WITHDRAWAL PENALTY
(For Certain Louisiana Parishes)
TO ALL MEMBER BANKS
AND OTHERS CONCERNED IN THE
ELEVENTH FEDERAL RESERVE DISTRICT:
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has granted a
temporary suspension of the Regulation Q penalty for early withdrawal of time
deposits from member banks for those depositors affected by the recent severe
storms and flooding in Catahoula, Grant, LaSalle, Winn, Natchitoches, and
Ouachita Parishes, Louisiana.
The Board's action permits a member bank,
wherever located, to pay a time deposit before maturity without imposing the
penalty upon a showing that the depositor suffered property or other financial loss
in the disaster area as a result of the storms and flooding.
The action has been made retroactive to deposits withdrawn on or after
January 11, 1983, and will remain in effect until 12:00 midnight July 11, 1983. A
member bank should obtain from a depositor seeking a penalty-free withdrawal a
signed statem ent describing fully the disaster-related loss. The statem ent should
be approved and certified by an officer of the bank.
Questions regarding this circular should be directed to this Bank’s Legal
Department, Extension 6171.
Additional copies of this circular will be furnished upon request to the
Public Affairs Department, Extension 6289.
Sincerely yours,

William H. Wallace
First Vice President
