29856 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 95 / Tuesday, May 17, 2022 / Notices 

3Appendix A to Subpart C of 41 CFR 102–3, the 

Federal Advisory Committee Management Final 

Rule notes that the FACA (5 U.S.C. App. 2) does 

not specify the manner in which advisory 

committee members and staff must be appointed. 

4See, OGE DO–04X9, DO–04–022, and DO–05– 

012. 5 17 CFR 145.9. 

consultations with knowledgeable 

persons outside the CFTC (industry, 

consumer groups, other state or federal 

government agencies, academia, etc.); 

requests to be represented received from 

individuals and organizations; and 

Commissioners’ and CFTC staff’s 

professional knowledge of those 

experienced in the derivatives and 

underlying commodities markets. 

Following the identification process, the 

CFTC develops a list of proposed 

members with the relevant points of 

view needed to ensure membership 

balance. The Commission then votes to 

appoint individuals, or specified 

organizations, to serve.3

The collection of information is 

necessary to support the CFTC Advisory 

Committee Program which includes 

committees, most of which are governed 

by the FACA, and subcommittees that 

report directly to the CFTC FACA 

committees, as noted above. Pursuant to 

the FACA, an agency must ensure that 

a committee is balanced with respect to 

the viewpoints represented and the 

functions to be performed by that 

committee. Consistent with this, in 

order to select individuals for potential 

membership on an advisory committee, 

the CFTC must determine that potential 

members are qualified to serve on an 

advisory committee and that the 

viewpoints are properly balanced on the 

committee. The CFTC is also required to 

ensure that committee members are 

properly designated as special 

government employees or 

representatives.4 While CFTC 

subcommittees are not subject to the 

FACA, the selection process for 

subcommittee members who are not 

already serving on the parent committee 

is similar to that of new committee 

members. Additionally, the agency 

follows similar member selection 

procedures for the agency’s non-FACA 

committee. 

CFTC staff would use the information 

collected to determine the experience 

and expertise of potential advisory 

committee and subcommittee members, 

ensure that the membership on a 

committee or subcommittee is balanced, 

and ensure that committee and 

subcommittee members are properly 

designated as representatives or special 

government employees. 

The CFTC seeks to collect the 

following information: Information that 

supports an individual’s experience and 

expertise to serve on an advisory 

committee or subcommittee, including 

letters of interest, recommendation 

letters, nomination letters (including 

self-nominations), resumes, curriculum 

vitae or other similar biographical 

information document. Additionally, 

information that ensures membership 

balance (e.g., represented viewpoint 

category) and appropriate designation of 

an individual as either a representative 

or special government employee. 

With respect to the collection of 

information, the CFTC invites 

comments on: 

• Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information will have a practical use; 

• The accuracy of the Commission’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

• Ways to enhance the quality, 

usefulness, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and 

• Ways to minimize the burden of 

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. 

You should submit only information 

that you wish to make available 

publicly. If you wish the Commission to 

consider information that you believe is 

exempt from disclosure under the 

Freedom of Information Act, a petition 

for confidential treatment of the exempt 

information may be submitted according 

to the procedures established in § 145.9 

of the Commission’s regulations.5

The Commission reserves the right, 

but shall have no obligation, to review, 

pre-screen, filter, redact, refuse or 

remove any or all of your submission 

from http://www.cftc.gov that it may 

deem to be inappropriate for 

publication, such as obscene language. 

All submissions that have been redacted 

or removed that contain comments on 

the merits of the Information Collection 

Request will be retained in the public 

comment file and will be considered as 

required under the Administrative 

Procedure Act and other applicable 

laws, and may be accessible under the 

Freedom of Information Act. 

Burden Statement: The respondent 

burden for this collection is estimated to 

be as follows: 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

91. 

Estimated Average Burden Hours Per 

Respondent: 1 hour. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 91 hours. 

Frequency of Collection: As needed. 

There are no capital costs or operating 

and maintenance costs associated with 

this collection.
