SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC

is proposing to extend OMB approval of

the following information collection:

Title: Assessment of Fees—12 CFR 8.

OMB Number: 1557–0223.

Description: The OCC is requesting

comment on its proposed extension,

without change, of the information

collection titled, ‘‘Assessment of Fees—

12 CFR 8.’’ The National Bank Act

authorizes the OCC to collect

assessments, fees, and other charges as

necessary or appropriate to carry out the

responsibilities of the OCC. The OCC

will require national banks to provide

the OCC with ‘‘receivables attributable’’

data from independent credit card

banks, that is, national banks that

primarily engage in credit card

operations and are not affiliated with a

full service national bank. ‘‘Receivables

attributable’’ are the total amount of

outstanding balances due on credit card

accounts owned by an independent

credit card bank (the receivables

attributable to those accounts) on the

last day of an assessment period, minus

receivables retained on the bank’s

balance sheet as of that day. The OCC

will use the information to verify the

accuracy of each bank’s assessment

computation and to adjust the

assessment rate for independent credit

card banks over time.

Type of Review: Extension of OMB

approval.

Affected Public: Businesses or other

for-profit (national banks).

Estimated Number of Respondents:

35.

Estimated Total Annual Responses:

70.

Frequency of Response:

Semiannually.

Estimated Time per Respondent: 1

hour.

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 70

hours.

An agency may not conduct or

sponsor, and a respondent is not

required to respond to, an information

collection unless the information

collection displays a currently valid

OMB control number.

Comments submitted in response to

this notice will be summarized and

included in the request for OMB

approval. All comments will become a

matter of public record. Comments are

invited on:

(a) Whether the collection of

information is necessary for the proper

performance of the functions of the

agency, including whether the

information has practical utility;

(b) The accuracy of the agency’s

estimate of the burden of the collection

of information;

(c) Ways to enhance the quality,

utility, and clarity of the information to

be collected;

(d) Ways to minimize the burden of

the collection on respondents, including

through the use of automated collection

techniques or other forms of information

technology; and

(e) Estimates of capital or startup costs

and costs of operation, maintenance,

and purchase of services to provide

information.
