SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Adaptation of Regulations to 

Incorporate Swaps-Records of 

Transactions; Exclusion of Utility 

Operations Related Swaps with Utility 

Special Entities from De minimis 

Threshold for Swaps with Special 

Entities (OMB Control No. 3038–0090). 

This is a request for extension of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

Abstract: Title VII of the Dodd-Frank 

Wall Street Reform and Consumer 

Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act, Pub. L. 

111–203, 124 Stat. 1376 (2010)) 

amended the Commodity Exchange Act 

(CEA) to establish a comprehensive new 

statutory framework for swaps. These 

amendments required the Commodity 

Futures Trading Commission (‘‘the 

Commission’’) to amend several of its 

regulations to implement the new 

framework. 

The information collection obligations 

imposed by the ‘‘Adaptation of 

Regulations to Incorporate Swaps’’ final 

regulations 2 are necessary to implement 

section 721 of the Dodd-Frank Act, 

which amended the definitions of 

futures commission merchant (‘‘FCM’’) 

and introducing broker (‘‘IB’’) to permit 

these intermediaries to trade swaps on 

behalf of customers. They also are 

necessary to implement section 733 of 

the Dodd-Frank Act which introduced 

swap execution facilities (‘‘SEFs’’) as a 

new trading platform for swaps. As a 

result of the enactment of sections 721 

and 733, the Commission needed to 

amend certain recordkeeping 

regulations (§§ 1.31, 1.33, 1.35, 1.37, 

and 1.39) so that records of swap 

transactions are maintained analogously 

to how futures transactions are 

maintained. 

Further, the ‘‘Exclusion of Utility 

Operations-Related Swaps With Utility 

Special Entities from De Minimis 

Threshold for Swaps With Special 

Entities’’ 3 regulation amended the 

Commission’s swap dealer definition to 

permit a person to exclude ‘‘utility 

operations-related swaps’’ with ‘‘utility 

special entities’’ in their de minimis 

threshold calculations. The regulation 

requires a person claiming the exclusion 

to maintain, in accordance with 

Commission regulation 1.31, any 

written representations that the person 

receives from utility special entities 

related to this exclusion. 

The information collection burdens 

associated with these regulations 

(collectively, the ‘‘Swap Recordkeeping 

Requirements’’) are restricted to the 

costs associated with the recordkeeping 

and reporting requirements that these 

regulations impose upon affected 

registrants, registered entities, those 

registered entities’ members, and other 

respondents covered by the final rules. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number. On April 27, 2020, the 

Commission published in the Federal 

Register notice of the proposed 

extension of this information collection 

and provided 60 days for public 

comment on the proposed extension, 85 

FR 23331. The Commission did not 

receive any comments on the 60-Day 

Notice. 

Burden Statement: The Commission 

is revising its estimate of the burden for 

this collection for futures commission 

merchants, retail foreign exchange 

dealers, introducing brokers, and 

members of designated contract markets 

and swap execution facilities. The 

respondent burden for this collection is 

estimated to be as follows:4

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

13,664. 

Estimated Annual Burden Hours per 

Respondent: 163. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 2,233,722. 

Frequency of Collection: As needed. 

There are no capital costs or operating 

and maintenance costs associated with 

this collection.
