Downstate New York Regional Check Processing Center On July 1, 1976, this Bank commenced operation of its fourth regional check processing center. The new facility, known as the Downstate N e w York Regional Check Processing Center, is located at this Bank’s Jericho Office and serves banks located in Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster, and Westchester Counties. Paragraphs 1(b) and 3 of Operating Circular No. 5 have been amended to reflect the establishment of this new facility. A new appendix, Appendix No. 1-B, to Operating Circular No. 5 is the time schedule for the Downstate N e w York RCPC. (Note that the appendix entitled “Cranford Office — North Jersey Regional Check Processing Center (NJRCPC) Time Schedule,” formerly Appendix No. 1-B, has been redesignated Appendix No. 1-D). Incident to the commencement of operation of the Downstate N e w York RCPC, the remaining appendices to Operating Circular No. 5 have also been revised. Northeastern New York Regional Check Processing Center Effective November 18, 1976, this Bank will commence the operation of its fifth regional check processing center. This facility, which will be known as the Northeastern N e w York Regional Check (OVER) Processing Center, will be located at an off-premise site at this Bank’s Utica Office in Oriskany, N e w York, and will serve 34 northern N e w York counties in the Head Office territory. The establishment of the Northeastern N e w York R C P C will complete this Bank’s R C P C program in the Second Federal Reserve District. The service area of the Northeastern N e w York R C P C will include the following counties: Albany, Broome, Cayuga, Chemung, Chenango, Clinton, Columbia, Cortland, Delaware, Essex, Franklin, Fulton, Greene, Hamilton, Herkimer, Jefferson, Lewis, Madison, Montgomery, Oneida, Onondaga, Oswego, Otsego, Rensselaer, St. Lawrence, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Schuyler, Seneca, Tioga, Tompkins, Washington, and Warren. Initially, only those banks located in the area served by the Northeastern N e w York R C P C may deposit items at the Utica Office. All other senders should continue to deposit items drawn on banks in the Northeastern N e w York R C P C service area at the Head Office of this Bank. W h e n full imple mentation is achieved, deposit privileges will be extended to all senders; notification to that effect will be made at the appropriate time. Paragraph 2 of Operating Circular No. 4, paragraphs 1(b) and 3 of Operating Circular No. 5, and paragraph 3 of Operating Circular No. 6 have been amended to reflect the establishment of this new facility. A new appendix, Appendix 1-C, to Operating Circular No. 5 is the time schedule for the North eastern N e w York RCPC. Treatment of accounting entries on holidays All Federal Reserve Banks have adopted a policy whereby a sending bank will receive credit for cash items sent directly to a Federal Reserve office on the basis of the holiday schedule of the receiving Reserve Bank. Paragraphs 12 and 13 of Operating Circular No. 5 are amended to reflect this uniform policy. New Routing Numbers assigned to thrift institutions Each of the appendices to Operating Circular No. 5 is amended to include instructions to those banks depositing cash items drawn on mutual savings banks and savings and loan associations located in N e w York State and Connecticut that have statutory authority to offer demand deposit accounts. Other time schedule revisions Paragraph 2 of Appendix No. 1 “Head Office Time Schedule” and paragraph 2 of Appendix No. 2 “Buffalo Branch Time Schedule” to Operating Circular No. 5, dealing with credit for items payable in other Federal Reserve Districts, have been amended to reflect improved credit availability for certain of those items. Cancellation of paying bank “endorsements” on return items To facilitate the return of unpaid items, all paying banks are now required to cancel their own endorsement stamp, paid stamp, or other identifying stamp appearing on the back of items that they are returning. Check processing equipment used by some paying banks places an endorsement or other identifying stamp of the paying bank on the reverse side of items presented to it for payment in lieu of the traditional “paid” stamp on the face of the items. This endorsement makes the expeditious return of the item to the sender more difficult. Paragraphs 40A of Operating Circular No. 4, and 22A of Operating Circular No. 6, have been added to reflect this policy, which provides that: 1. Paying banks should not return items bearing their uncancelled endorsements, and 2. Reserve Banks will assume no responsibility for any delay caused by misrouting of such return items.
