SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of Investor 

Education and Advocacy, Washington, 

DC 20549–0213. 

Extension: 

Rule 15c3–1, OMB Control No. 3235–0200, 

SEC File No. 270–197. 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities 

and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments 

on the collection of information 

summarized below. The Commission 

plans to submit this existing collection 

of information to the Office of 

Management and Budget for extension 

and approval. 

Rule 15c3–1 (17 CFR 240.15c3–1) 

under the Securities Exchange Act of 

1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) requires 

brokers and dealers to have at all times 

sufficient liquid assets to meet their 

current liabilities, particularly the 

claims of customers. The rule facilitates 

monitoring the financial condition of 

brokers and dealers by the Commission 

and the various self-regulatory 

organizations. It is estimated that the 

active broker-dealer respondents 

registered with the Commission incur 

an aggregate burden of 73,300 hours per 

year to comply with this rule. 

Please note that an agency may not 

conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 

required to respond to, a collection of 

information unless it displays a 

currently valid control number. 

Comments should be directed to: (i) 

Desk Officer for the Securities and 

Exchange Commission, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Office of Management and Budget, 

Room 10102, New Executive Office 

Building, Washington, DC 20503 or by 

sending an e-mail to: 

Shagufta_Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) 

Charles Boucher, Director/Chief 

Information Officer, Securities and 

Exchange Commission, c/o Shirley 

Martinson, 6432 General Green Way, 

Alexandria, Virginia 22312 or send an 

e-mail to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. 

Comments must be submitted within 30 

days of this notice. 

Dated: September 30, 2009.

Deputy Secretary.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of Investor 

Education and Advocacy, 

Washington, DC 20549–0213. 

Extension: 

Rule 17f–1(b), OMB Control No. 3235– 

0032; SEC File No. 270–28. 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) the Securities 

and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the 

Office of Management and Budget a 

request for approval of extension of the 

existing collection of information 

provided for in the following rule: Rule 

17f–1(b) (17 CFR 240.17f–1(b)) under 

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 

U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (the ‘‘Exchange Act’’). 

Rule 17f–1(b) under the Exchange Act 

requires approximately 26,000 entities 

in the securities industry to register in 

the Lost and Stolen Securities Program 

(‘‘Program’’). Registration fulfills a 

statutory requirement that entities 

report and inquire about missing, lost, 

counterfeit, or stolen securities. 

Registration also allows entities in the 

securities industry to gain access to a 

confidential database that stores 

information for the Program. 

We estimate that 1,000 new entities 

will register in the Program each year. 

The staff estimates that the average 

number of hours necessary to comply 

with the Rule 17f–1(b) is one-half hour. 

The total burden is therefore 500 hours 

(1,000 times one-half) annually for all 

participants.
