Authority To Extend for Three Years, 

Without Revision, Following 

Information Collection 

Collection title: Recordkeeping 

Requirements Associated with 

Regulation F. 

Collection identifier: FR F. 

OMB control number: 7100–0331. 

General description of collection: The 

Board’s Regulation F—Limitations on 

Interbank Liabilities (12 CFR part 206) 

establishes limits on depository 

institutions’ credit exposure to 

individual correspondents in order to 

mitigate the risk that the failure of a 

correspondent would pose to an insured 

depository institution.1 Section 206.3 of 

Regulation F requires insured 

depository institutions to establish and 

maintain policies and procedures 

designed to prevent excessive exposure 

to correspondents. 

Frequency: This information 

collection contains recordkeeping 

requirements. The creation of written 

policies and procedures concerning 

interbank liabilities is a mandatory onetime requirement. Subsequent changes 

to these policies and procedures would 

be on occasion, and they must be 

reviewed and approved by the 

depository institution’s board of 

directors at least annually. The policies 

and procedures must be maintained, as 

amended. 

Respondents: All depository 

institutions insured by the Federal 

Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).2

Total estimated number of 

respondents: 4,655. 

Total estimated annual burden hours: 

4,753.3

Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork 

Reduction Act Review 

In accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 

received approval from the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) to 

conduct Rapid Surveys System 

(RSS)[OMB Control No. 0920–1408], 

which includes fielding four surveys per 

year. The Round 1 survey was approved 

on 06/30/2023. A second and third 

round of the RSS were additionally 

approved. In accordance with the Terms 

of Clearance, NCHS will publish a 30- 

day Federal Register Notice announcing 

each new survey so that public 

comments can be received about the 

specific content of each survey. This 

notice includes specific details about 

the questions that would be asked in the 

fourth round of the RSS and serves to 

allow 30 days for public and affected 

agency comments, consistent with 

OMB’s terms of clearance. 

CDC will accept all comments for this 

proposed information collection project. 

The Office of Management and Budget 

is particularly interested in comments 

that: 

(a) Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agencies estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; 

(d) Minimize the burden of the 

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; and 

(e) Assess information collection 

costs. 

To request additional information on 

the proposed project or to obtain a copy 

of the information collection plan and 

instruments, call (404) 639–7570. 

Comments and recommendations for the 

proposed information collection should 

be sent within 30 days of publication of 

this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/ 

do/PRAMain. Find this particular 

information collection by selecting 

‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open

Proposed Project 

Rapid Surveys System (RSS) Round 4 

(OMB Control No. 0920–1408)— 

National Center for Health Statistics 

(NCHS) Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC), 

Background and Brief Description 

Section 306 of the Public Health 

Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C.), as 

amended, authorizes that the Secretary 

of Health and Human Services (HHS), 

acting through NCHS, collect data about 

the health of the population of the 

United States. The RSS (OMB control 

No. 0920–1408) collects data on 

emerging public health topics, attitudes, 

and behaviors using cross-sectional 

samples from two commercially 

available, national probability-based 

online panels. The RSS then combines 

these data to form estimates that 

approximate national representation in 

ways that many data collection 

approaches cannot. The RSS collects 

data in contexts in which decision 

makers’ need for time-sensitive data of 

known quality about emerging and 

priority health concerns is a higher 

priority than their need for statistically 

unbiased estimates. 

The RSS complements NCHS’s 

current household survey systems. As 

quicker turnaround surveys that require 

less accuracy and precision than CDC’s 

more rigorous population representative 

surveys, the RSS incorporates multiple 

mechanisms to carefully evaluate the 

resulting survey data for their 

appropriateness for use in public health 

surveillance and research (e.g., 

hypothesis generating) and facilitate 

continuous quality improvement by 

supplementing these panels with 

intensive efforts to understand how well 

the estimates reflect populations at most 

risk. The RSS data dissemination 

strategy communicates the strengths and 

limitations of data collected through 

online probability panels as compared 

to more robust data collection methods. 

The RSS has three major goals: (1) to 

provide CDC and other partners with 

time-sensitive data of known quality 

about emerging and priority health 

concerns; (2) to use these data 

collections to continue NCHS’s 

evaluation of the quality of public 

health estimates generated from 

commercial online panels; and (3) to 

improve methods to communicate the 

appropriateness of public health 

estimates generated from commercial 

online panels. 

The RSS is designed to have four 

rounds of data collection each year with 

data being collected by two contractors 

with probability panels. A crosssectional nationally representative 

sample will be drawn from the online 

probability panel maintained by each of 

the contractors. As part of the base 

(minimum sample size), each round of 

data collection will collect 2,000 

responses per quarter. The RSS can be 

expanded by increasing the number of 

completed responses per round or the 

number of rounds per year as needed up 

to a maximum of 28,000 responses per 

year per contractor or 56,000 total 

responses per year. Additionally, each 

data collection may include up to 2,000 

additional responses per quarter (8,000 

for the year) to improve 

representativeness. This increases the 

maximum burden by up to 16,000 

responses per year. The RSS may also 

target individual surveys to collect data 

only from specific subgroups within 

existing survey panels and may 

supplement data collection for such 

groups with additional respondents 

from other probability or nonprobability 

samples. An additional 12,000 

responses per year may be used for 

these developmental activities. 

Each round’s questionnaire will 

consist of four main components: (1) 

basic demographic information on 

respondents to be used as covariates in 

analyses; (2) new, emerging, or 

supplemental content proposed by 

NCHS, other CDC Centers, Institute, and 

Offices, and other HHS agencies; (3) 

questions used for calibrating the survey 

weights; and (4) additional content 

selected by NCHS to evaluate against 

relevant benchmarks. NCHS will use
