Circular No. 82-62
June 1, 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 severe storms and flooding in Wichita 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 and flooding.
The action has been made retroactive to deposits withdrawn on
or after May 25, 1982, and will remain in effect until 12:00 midnight
November 25, 1982. A member bank should obtain from a depositor seeking
a penalty-free withdrawal a signed statement describing fully the
disaster-related loss. The statement should be approved and certified
by an officer of the bank.
Questions regarding this circular should be directed to Dean
A. Pankonien of
thisBank's Legal Department, Ext. 6171.
Additional copies ofthis circular,
the suspension announce­
ment 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.
Sincerely yours,

William H. Wallace
First Vice President
