Federal agencies are required to publish 

notice in the Federal Register

concerning each proposed collection of 

information, including each proposed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

PRA, Federal agencies must obtain 

approval from the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) for each collection of 

information they conduct or sponsor. 

‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined 

in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 

1320.3(c) and includes agency requests 

or requirements that members of the 

public submit reports, keep records, or 

provide information to a third party. 

Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, 44 

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A), requires Federal 

agencies to provide a 60-day notice in 

the Federal Register concerning each 

proposed collection of information, 

including each proposed extension of an 

existing collection of information, 

before submitting the collection to OMB 

for approval. To comply with this 

requirement, the CFTC is publishing 

notice of the proposed collection of 

information listed below. 

With respect to the following 

collection of information, the CFTC 

invites comments on: 

• Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information will have a practical use; 

• The accuracy of the Commission’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

• Ways to enhance the quality, 

usefulness, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and 

• Ways to minimize the burden of 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of responses. 

Rules Relating to Security Futures 

Products, OMB Control Number 3038–

0059—Extension 

The Commission’s Part 41 rules 

establish the regulatory framework 

governing the offer and sale of security 

futures. Section 5f of the Commodity 

Exchange Act mandates that the 

Commission set forth procedures that 

permits certain entities—specifically, 

national securities exchanges, national 

securities associations, and alternative 

trading systems—that would otherwise 

be regulated by the SEC, to become 

designated contract markets for the 

limited purpose of trading security 

futures products. 

The Commission estimates the burden 

of this collection of information as 

follows:

ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN

Annual

respondents 

Frequency

There are no capital costs or operating 

and maintenance costs associated with 

this collection. 

This estimate is based on the number 

of requests for such designations 

submitted in the last three years. 

Although the burden varies with the 

type, size, and complexity of the request 

submitted, such request might involve 

analytical work and analysis, as well as 

the work of drafting the request itself.

Dated: September 29, 2004.

Secretary of Commission.

of review requested, e.g. new, revision, 

extension, existing or reinstatement; (2) 

title; (3) summary of the collection; (4) 

description of the need for, and 

proposed use of, the information; (5) 

respondents and frequency of 

collection; and (6) reporting and/or 

recordkeeping burden. OMB invites 

public comment. 

The Department of Education is 

especially interested in public comment 

addressing the following issues: (1) Is 

this collection necessary to the proper 

functions of the Department; (2) will 

this information be processed and used 

in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate 

of burden accurate; (4) how might the 

Department enhance the quality, utility, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (5) how might the 

Department minimize the burden of this 

collection on the respondents, including 

through the use of information 

technology.
