POSTAL SERVICE

Sunshine Act Meeting; Notice of Vote

To Close Meeting

At its meeting on May 6, 1996, the

Board of Governors of the United States

Postal Service voted unanimously to

close to public observation its meeting

scheduled for June 3, 1996, in

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The

members will consider a filing with the

Postal Rate Commission for

classification reform of special services.

The meeting is expected to be

attended by the following persons:

Governors Alvarado, Daniels, del Junco,

Dyhrkopp, Fineman, Mackie,

McWherter, Rider and Winters;

Postmaster General Runyon, Deputy

Postmaster General Coughlin, Secretary

to the Board Koerber, and General

Counsel Elcano.

The Board determined that pursuant

to section 552b(c)(3) of title 5, United

States Code, and section 7.3(c) of title

39, Code of Federal Regulations, this

portion of the meeting is exempt from

the open meeting requirement of the

Government in the Sunshine Act [5

U.S.C. 552b(b)] because it is likely to

disclose information in connection with

proceedings under Chapter 36 of title

39, United States Code (having to do

with postal ratemaking, mail

classification and changes in postal

services), which is specifically

exempted from disclosure by section

410(c)(4) of title 39, United States Code.

The Board has determined further that

pursuant to section 552b(c)(10) of title 5,

United States Code, and section 7.3(j) of

title 39, Code of Federal Regulations, the

discussion is exempt because it is likely

to specifically concern participation of

the Postal Service in a civil action or

proceeding involving a determination

on the record after opportunity for a

hearing.

The Board further determined that the

public interest does not require that the

Board’s discussion of these matters be

open to the public.

In accordance with section 552b(f)(1)

of title 5, United States Code, and

section 7.6(a) of title 39, Code of Federal

Regulations, the General Counsel of the

United States Postal Service has

certified that in her opinion the meeting

may properly be closed to public

observation pursuant to section 552b(c)

(3) and (10) of title 5, United States

Code; section 410(c)(4) of title 39,

United States Code; and section 7.3 (c)

and (j) of title 39, Code of Federal

Regulations.

Requests for information about the

meeting should be addressed to the

Secretary of the Board, Thomas J.

Koerber, at (202) 268–4800.

Thomas J. Koerber,

Secretary.

COMMISSION

Proposed Collection; Comment

Request

Upon Written Request, Copies

Available From: Securities and

Exchange Commission, Office of Filings

and Information Services, Washington,

DC 20549.

Extension: Rule 15g–2; SEC File No.

270–381; OMB Control No. 3235–0434.

Notice is hereby given that pursuant

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities

and Exchange Commission

(‘‘Commission’’) is publishing the

following summary of collection for

public comment.

Rule 15g–2 requires broker-dealers to

provide their customers with a risk

disclosure document, as set forth in

Schedule 15G,1 prior to their first non-
24342 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 94 / Tuesday, May 14, 1996 / Notices

customer’s rights and remedies in cases of fraud or

abuse in connection with transactions in penny

stocks; and certain other significant information.

exempt transaction in a ‘‘penny stock.’’

The rule requires broker-dealers to

obtain written acknowledgment from

the customer that he or she has received

the required risk disclosure document.

The rule also requires broker-dealers to

maintain a copy of the customer’s

written acknowledgment for at least

three years following the date on which

the risk disclosure document was

provided to the customer, the first two

years in an accessible place.

Approximately 270 broker-dealers are

subject to Rule 15g–2, and each one of

these firms will process an average of

approximately 156 risk disclosure

documents per year. The total ongoing

respondent burden is approximately 4

minutes per response, or an aggregate

total of 624 minutes per respondent.

Since there are 270 respondents, the

annual burden 2808 hours.

In addition, 270 broker-dealers will

incur a recordkeeping burden of

approximately one minute per response.

Thus, respondents as a group will incur

an aggregate annual recordkeeping

burden of 702 hours. The total annual

hour burden is 3510 hours.

The total cost of ongoing compliance

for the respondents and recordkeepers is

$70,200.

Written comments are invited on: (a)

whether the proposed collection of

information is necessary for the proper

performance of the functions of the

agency, including whether the

information shall have practical utility;

(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate

of the burden of the proposed collection

of information; (c) way to enhance the

quality, utility, and clarity of the

information to be collected; and (d)

ways to minimize the burden of the

collection of information on

respondents, including through the use

of automated collection techniques or

other forms of information technology.

Consideration will be given to

comments and suggestions submitted in

writing within 60 days of this

publication.

Direct your written comments to

Director, Office of Information

Technology, Securities and Exchange

Commission, 450 5th Street, NW.,

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application

To Withdraw From Listing and

Registration; (Horizon Mental Health

Management, Inc., Common Stock,

$.01 Par Value) File No. 1–13626

May 9, 1996.

The Horizon Mental Health

Management, Inc. (‘‘Company’’) has

filed an application with the Securities

and Exchange Commission

(‘‘Commission’’), pursuant to Section

12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of

1934 (‘‘Act’’) and Rule 12d2–2(d)

promulgated thereunder, to withdraw

the above specified security (‘‘Security’’)

from listing and registration on the

American Stock Exchange, Inc.

(‘‘Amex’’).

The reasons alleged in the application

for withdrawing the Security from

listing and registration include the

following:

According to the Company, its Board

of Directors unanimously approved

resolutions on March 21, 1996 to

withdraw the Security from listing and

registration on the Amex and to list the

Security on the Nasdaq/NMS. The

decision of the Board was based upon

the belief that listing of the Security on

the Nasdaq/NMS will be beneficial to

the stockholders of the Company by:

(a) increasing the liquidity of the

Security;

(b) capitalizing on a screen based

market offered by the Nasdaq/NMS as

opposed to the more site specific

auction type market afforded by Amex;

and

(c) increasing the visibility of the

Security.

Any interested person may, on or

before June 3, 1996, submit by letter to

the Secretary of the Securities and

Exchange Commission, 450 Fifth Street,

N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts

bearing upon whether the application

has been made in accordance with the

rules of the Amex and what terms, if

any, should be imposed by the

Commission for the protection of

investors. The Commission, based on

the information submitted to it, will

issue an order granting the application

after the date mentioned above, unless

the Commission determines to order a

hearing on the matter.

For the Commission, by the Division of

Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated

authority.

Secretary.
