Title: Proposed Collection; Comment 

Request: Rules Pertaining to Contract 

Markets and Their Members. 

Abstract: Section 5c(c) of the 

Commodity Exchange Act, 7 U.S.C. 7a–

2(c), establishes procedures for 

registered entities (designated contract 

markets, registered derivatives 

transaction execution facilities and 

registered derivatives clearing 

organizations) to implement new rules 

and rule amendments by either seeking 

prior approval or (for most rules) 

certifying to the Commission that such 

rules or rule amendments do not violate 

the Act or Commission regulations. 

Rules 40.4, 40.5 and 40.6 implement 

these statutory provisions. 

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 OMB 

control number. The OMB control 

numbers for the CFTC’s regulations 

were published on December 30, 1981. 

See 46 FR 63035 (Dec. 30, 1981). 

The Commission would like to solicit 

comments to: 

• Evaluate 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; 

• Evaluate 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; 

• Enhance the quality, usefulness, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• 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. 

Burden of Statement: The respondent 

burden for this collection is estimated to 

average .83 hours per response. These 

estimates include the time needed to 

review instructions; develop, acquire, 

install, and utilize technology and 

systems for the purposes of collecting, 

validating, and verifying information, 

processing and maintaining information 

and disclosing and providing 

information; adjust the existing ways to 

comply with any previously applicable 

instructions and requirements; train 

personnel to be able to respond to a 

collection of information; and transmit 

or otherwise disclose the information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

11,006. 

Estimated number of responses: 

13,118. 

Estimated total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 57 hours. 

Frequency of Collection: On occasion. 

Burden means the total time, effort, or 

financial resources expended by persons 

to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or 

provide information to or for a federal 

agency. This includes the time needed 

to review instructions; develop, acquire, 

install, and utilize technology and 

systems for the purpose of collecting, 

validating, and verifying information, 

processing and maintaining information 

and disclosing and providing 

information; adjust the existing ways to 

comply with any previously applicable 

instructions and requirements; train 

personnel to be able to respond to a 

collection of information; and transmit 

or otherwise disclose the information.
