SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[SEC File No. 270–564, OMB Control No. 

3235–0628] 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request; Extension: Rule 

17g–2 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 

100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 

20549–2736. 

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 

(‘‘OMB’’) a request for approval of 

extension of the previously approved 

collection of information provided for in 

Rule 17g–2 (17 CFR 240.17g–2) under 

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 

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

Rule 17g–2, ‘‘Records to be made and 

retained by nationally recognized 

statistical rating organizations,’’ 

implements the Commission’s 

recordkeeping rulemaking authority 

under section 17(a) of the Exchange 

Act.1 The rule requires a Nationally 

Recognized Statistical Rating 

Organization (‘‘NRSRO’’) to make and 

retain certain records relating to its 

business and to retain certain other 

business records, if such records are 

made. The rule also prescribes the time 

periods and manner in which all these 

records must be retained. There are 10 

credit rating agencies registered with the 

Commission as NRSROs under section 

15E of the Exchange Act, which have 

already established the recordkeeping 

policies and procedures required by 

Rule 17g–2. Based on staff experience, 

NRSROs are estimated to spend a total 

industry-wide burden of 2,600 annual 

hours to make and retain the 

appropriate records.2

Written comments are invited on: (a) 

whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s 

estimates of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information; (c) ways to 

enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 

of the information on respondents; and 

(d) ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on 

respondents, including through the use 

of automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

The Commission may not conduct or 

sponsor a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid 

control number. No person shall be 

subject to any penalty for failing to 

comply with a collection of information 

subject to the PRA that does not display 

a valid OMB control number.

documentation for this information 

collection at the following website:

information collection by selecting

Description of Information Collections 

OMB Control Number: 2140–0038. 

Information Collection 1 

Title: Joint Notice of Intent to 

Arbitrate. 

STB Form Number: None. 

Type of Review: Extension without 

change. 

Respondents: Parties seeking to 

submit to arbitration certain matters 

before the Board. 

Number of Respondents: One. 

Estimated Time per Response: One 

hour. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Total Burden Hours (annually 

including all respondents): One hour. 

Total ‘‘Non-hour Burden’’ Cost: None 

identified. Filings are submitted 

electronically to the Board. 

Needs and Uses: Under 49 CFR 

1108.5, arbitration commences with a 

written complaint that contains a 

statement that the relevant parties are 

participants in the Board’s arbitration 

program, or that the complainant is 

willing to arbitrate the dispute pursuant 

to the Board’s arbitration procedures. 

The respondent’s answer to the written 

complaint must then indicate the 

respondent’s participation in the 

Board’s arbitration program or its 

willingness to arbitrate the dispute at 

hand pursuant to the Board’s arbitration 

procedures. 

As an alternative to filing a written 

complaint, parties may submit a joint 

notice to the Board, indicating the 

consent of both parties to submit an 

issue in dispute to the Board’s 

arbitration program. In the joint notice, 

parties state the issue(s) that they are 

willing to submit to arbitration. The 

notice must contain a statement that 

would indicate that all relevant parties 

are participants in the Board’s 

arbitration program pursuant to 

1108.3(a), or that the relevant parties are 

willing to arbitrate voluntarily a matter 

pursuant to the Board’s arbitration 

procedures, and the relief requested. 

The notice must also indicate whether 

parties have agreed to a three-member 

arbitration panel or a single arbitrator 

and must indicate whether the parties 

have mutually agreed to a lower amount 

of potential liability in lieu of the 

monetary award cap that would 

otherwise be applicable. The joint 

notice encourages greater use of 

arbitration to resolve disputes at the 

Board.

arbitration roster must submit notice of 

their availability to be added to the
