FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF DALLAS DALLAS, TEXAS 75222 Circular No. 82-46 April 15, 1982 REGULATION Q Temporary Suspension of Early Withdrawal Penalty 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 storms in Lamar County, Texas. 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. The action has been made retroactive to deposits withdrawn on or after April 8, 1982, and will remain in effect until 12:00 midnight October 8, 1982. A member bank should obtain from a depositor seeking a penalty-free withdrawal a signed statement describing fully the diĀ saster-related loss. The statement should be approved and certified by an officer of the bank. Questions regarding this action should be directed to this Bank's Legal Department, Ext. 6171. Copies of the suspension announcement and the Board's order as it appears in the Federal Register will be furnished upon request to the Department of Communications, Financial and Community Affairs of this Bank, Ext. 6289.
