Restructuring of check processing operations in the Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Districts

For immediate release

The Federal Reserve Board has approved amendments to Appendix A of Regulation CC that reflect the restructuring of the Federal Reserve Banks' check-processing operations.

Appendix A provides a routing symbol guide that helps depository institutions determine the maximum permissible hold periods for most deposited checks. On June 20, 2009, the Reserve Banks will transfer the check-processing operations of the Seattle branch office of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco to the Los Angeles branch office of that Reserve Bank. On June 27, 2009, the Reserve Banks will transfer the check-processing operations of the Denver branch office of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City to the Los Angeles branch office and to the head office of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. Effective June 20, 2009, the Board is amending the list of routing symbols in Appendix A associated with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco to reflect the transfer of check-processing operations from Seattle to Los Angeles. Effective June 27, 2009, the Board is amending the lists of routing symbols in Appendix A associated with the Federal Reserve Banks of Kansas City, Dallas, and San Francisco to reflect the transfer of check-processing operations from Denver to Los Angeles and Dallas.

The Board's notice is attached.
