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 2,650 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

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request; Extension: 

Regulation 13D and Regulation 13G; 

Schedule 13D and Schedule 13G 

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 this 

request for extension of the previously 

approved collection of information 

discussed below. 

Schedules 13D and 13G (17 CFR 

240.13d–101 and 240.13d–102) are filed 

pursuant to Sections 13(d) and 13(g) of 

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 

U.S.C. 78m(d) and 78m(g)) (‘‘Exchange 

Act’’) and Regulations 13D and 13G (17 

CFR 240.13d–1—240.13d–7) thereunder 

to report beneficial ownership of equity 

securities registered under Section 12 

(15 U.S.C. 78l) of the Exchange Act. 

Regulations 13D and 13G provide 

investors, the subject issuers, and 

market participants with information 

about the accumulation of equity 

securities that may have the potential to 

change or influence control of an issuer. 

Schedules 13D and 13G are filed by 

persons, including small entities, to 

report their ownership of more than 5% 

of a class of equity securities registered 

under Section 12. 

We estimate that it takes 

approximately 14.5 burden hours to 

prepare a Schedule 13D and it is filed 

by approximately 1,508 filers. In 

addition, we estimate that 25% of the 

14.5 hours per response (3.625 hours 

per response) is carried internally by the 

filer for a total annual reporting burden 

of 5,467 hours (3.625 hours per response 

× 1,508 responses). 

We estimate that it takes 

approximately 12.4 hours per response 

to prepare a Schedule 13G and it is filed 

by approximately 7,079 filers. In 

addition, we estimate 25% of the 12.4 

hours per response (3.1 hours per 

response) is carried internally by the 

filer for a total annual reporting burden 

of 21,945 hours (3.1 hours per response 

× 7,079 responses), 

The Schedules combined are filed by 

8,587 filers and they take approximately 

12.769 hours per response. In addition,
