Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 148 / Thursday, July 31, 2008 / Notices 44709 

b. The alternative computation is: (.5) 

($55,903) + (.5) (.000637) ($719,088) = 

$28,181. 

c. The fee is the lesser of a or b; in 

this case $28,181. 

As noted above, the alternative 

calculation based on contracts traded is 

not applicable to NFA because it is not 

a DCM and has no contracts traded. The 

Commission’s average annual cost for 

conducting oversight review of the NFA 

rule enforcement program during fiscal 

years 2005 through 2007 was $450,419 

(one-third of $1,351,256). The fee to be 

paid by the NFA for the current fiscal 

year is $450,419. 

Payment Method 

The Debt Collection Improvement Act 

(DCIA) requires deposits of fees owed to 

the government by electronic transfer of 

funds (See 31 U.S.C. 3720). For 

information about electronic payments, 

please contact Angela Clark at (202) 

418–5178 or aclark@cftc.gov, or see the 

CFTC Web site at http://www.cftc.gov, 

specifically, http://www.cftc.gov/cftc/ 

cftcelectronicpayments.htm. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 

U.S.C. 601, et seq., requires agencies to 

consider the impact of rules on small 

business. The fees implemented in this 

release affect contract markets and 

registered futures associations. The 

Commission has previously determined 

that contract markets and registered 

futures associations are not ‘‘small 

entities’’ for purposes of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. Accordingly, the Acting 

Chairman, on behalf of the Commission, 

certifies pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that 

the fees implemented here will not have 

a significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

Issued in Washington, DC, on July 24, 

2008, by the Commission.

Secretary of the Commission.
