RE: GLACIER BANCORP, INC.
REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-4; FILE NO. 333-153458
REQUEST FOR ACCELERATION
Ladies and Gentlemen:
In accordance with Rule 461 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, I
hereby request on behalf of Glacier Bancorp, Inc., that its Registration
Statement on Form S-4 filed on September 12, 2008, be made effective on
September 25, 2008, or as soon as possible thereafter.
We acknowledge that
- should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated
authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the
Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;
- the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not
relieve the company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and
accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
- the company may not assert this action as defense in any proceeding
initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities
laws of the United States.
We would appreciate it if you would notify us by telephone of the effective
date of the Registration Statement and would also confirm such advice in
writing.
