# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The                     **Federal Register**                     notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on December 3, 2015 (80 FR 75663).                

*Title:*                     Daily Trade and Supporting Data Reports (OMB Control No. 3038-0061). This is a request for extension of a currently approved information collection.                

*Abstract:*                     Commission Regulation 16.02 requires Reporting Markets, including Designated Contract Markets, to provide the Commission with trade and supporting data reports on a daily basis. The Commission analyzes the daily trade and supporting data reports to discharge its regulatory responsibilities, including the responsibilities to prevent market manipulations and commodity price distortions and ensure the financial integrity of its jurisdictional markets.                

This ICR concerns the collections of information required by 17 CFR 16.02. Commission staff estimates that up to 30 reporting markets could provide this data to the Commission in the future. The Commission did not receive any comments regarding the burden estimate or any other aspect of this ICR.

*Burden Statement:*                     Commission staff estimate that the total annual time burden for this ICR is 15,000 hours. Commission staff estimates that the total annual cost for this ICR is $1,139,700. The time burden estimate represents the annual burden that Reporting Markets incur to operate and maintain automated reporting systems and processes that facilitate the reporting of trade and supporting data reports to the Commission on a daily basis. The electronic reporting required by Commission Rule 16.02 is generally accomplished in an automated manner by respondents' computer systems. Reporting entities have already incurred significant one-time costs to establish the capability to electronically report trade and supporting data to the Commission on a daily basis. The burden hours currently incurred by respondents to comply with Commission Rule 16.02 are primarily related to the hours necessary to oversee, maintain, and utilize respondents' existing automated reporting functionality.                

Commission staff estimates that Reporting Markets expend an average of two hours per trading day to oversee, maintain, and utilize their systems and procesess to comply with Commission Rule 16.02. Commission staff calculated the estimated cost burden by multiplying the estimated time burden by an estimated appropriate hourly wage rate of $75.98. Commission staff derived the estimated appropriate hourly wage rate by averaging the salaries and bonuses of relevant professions reported in the SIFMA Report on Management & Professional Earnings in the Securities Industry 2013.

*Respondents/Affected Entities:*                     Reporting Markets.                

*Estimated Number of Respondents:*                     30.                

*Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents:*                     15,000 hours.                

*Estimated Total Annual Cost:*                     $1,139,700.                

*Frequency of Collection:*                     Ongoing.                

Authority:44 U.S.C. 3501*et seq.*

Dated: January 27, 2016.

Deputy Secretary of the Commission.
