SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC is proposing to extend the approval 
for the following information collection:
    Title: Examination Questionnaire.
    OMB Control No.: 1557-0199.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
    Type of Review: Regular review.
    Abstract: The OCC has revised its Examination Questionnaire and 
updated the estimated burden hours to adjust for the reduction in the 
number of national banks. Completed Examination Questionnaires provide 
the OCC with information needed to properly evaluate the effectiveness 
of the examination process and agency communications. The OCC will use 
the information to identify problems or trends that may impair the 
effectiveness of the examination process, to identify ways to improve 
its service to the banking industry, and to analyze staff and training 
needs. A questionnaire is provided to each national bank at the 
conclusion of their supervisory cycle (12 or 18-month period). A banker 
may now choose to complete this questionnaire on National BankNet, the 
OCC's extranet site.
    Burden Estimates:
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,565.
    Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent per Year: 0.89.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 1,393.
    Estimated Time per response: 10 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 232 hours.
    Comments: A 60-day Federal Register notice was issued on July 22, 
2010 (75 FR 42825). No comments were received. Comments continue to be 
invited on:
    (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the OCC, including whether the 
information has practical utility;
    (b) The accuracy of the OCC's estimate of the information 
collection burden;
    (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected;
    (d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology; and
    (e) Estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, 
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.

    Dated: November 16, 2010.

Assistant Director, Legislative and Regulatory Activities Division,
