Activities: Proposed Collection;

Comment Request

AGENCY: Board of Governors of the

Federal Reserve System

ACTION: Notice

Background:

On June 15, 1984, the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB)

delegated to the Board of Governors of

the Federal Reserve System (Board) its

approval authority under the Paperwork

Reduction Act, as per 5 CFR 1320.16, to

approve of and assign OMB control

numbers to collection of information

requests and requirements conducted or

sponsored by the Board under

conditions set forth in 5 CFR 1320

Appendix A.1. The Federal Reserve may

not conduct or sponsor, and the

respondent is not required to respond

to, an information collection that has

been extended, revised, or implemented

on or after October 1, 1995, unless it

displays a currently valid OMB control

number. Board-approved collections of

information will be incorporated into

the official OMB inventory of currently

approved collections of information. A

copy of the OMB 83-I and supporting

statement and the approved collection

of information instrument will be

placed into OMB’s public docket files.

The following information collection,

which is being handled under this

delegated authority, has received initial

Board approval and is hereby published

for comment. At the end of the comment

period, the proposed information

collection, along with an analysis of

comments and recommendations

received, will be submitted to the Board

for final approval under OMB delegated

authority. Comments are invited on the

following:

a. Whether the proposed collection of

information is necessary for the proper

performance of the Federal Reserve’s

functions; including whether the

information has practical utility;

b. The accuracy of the Federal

Reserve’s estimate of the burden of the

proposed information collection,

including the validity of the

methodology and assumptions used;

c. Ways to enhance the quality,

utility, and clarity of the information to

be collected; and

d. Ways to minimize the burden of

information collection on respondents,

including through the use of automated

collection techniques or other forms of

information technology.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on

or before November 24, 1997.
