###### Federal Reserve System

# AGENCY:

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

# SUMMARY:

On June 15, 1984, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) delegated to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) its approval authority under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.16, to approve of and assign OMB control numbers to collection of information requests and requirements conducted or sponsored by the Board under conditions set forth in 5 CFR part 1320 Appendix A.1. Board-approved collections of information are incorporated into the official OMB inventory of currently approved collections of information. Copies of the Paperwork Reduction Act Submission, supporting statements and approved collection of information instruments are placed into OMB's public docket files. The Federal Reserve may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

### Proposal to Conduct Under OMB Delegated Authority the Following Survey

                    1.                     *Report title:*                     2016 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF).                

*Agency form number:*                     FR 3059.                

*OMB control number:*                     7100-0287.                

*Frequency:*                     One-time survey.                

*Reporters:*                     U.S. families.                

*Estimated annual reporting hours:*                     Pretest: 188 hours and Main survey: 8,750 hours.                

*Estimated average hours per response:*                     Pretest, 75 minutes; and Main survey, 75 minutes.                

*Number of respondents:*                     Pretest, 150; and Main survey, 7,000.                

*General description of report:*                     This information collection is voluntary (12 U.S.C. 225a. and 263). The information collected on the FR 3059 is exempt from disclosure in identifiable form under the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act (CIPSEA) and section (b)(3) of the Freedom of Information Act. 44 U.S.C. 3501, note, and 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(3).                

*Abstract:*                     This would be the twelfth triennial SCF since 1983, the beginning of the current series. This survey is the only source of representative information on the structure of U.S. families' finances. The survey would collect data on the assets, debts, income, work history, pension rights, use of financial services, and attitudes of a sample of U.S. families. Because the ownership of some assets is relatively concentrated in a small number of families, the survey would make a special effort to ensure proper representation of such assets by systematically oversampling wealthier families.                

### Proposal to Approve Under OMB Delegated Authority the Extension for Three Years, Without Revision, of the Following Report

                    1.                     *Report title:*                     The Recordkeeping and Disclosure Requirements Associated with the Guidance on Response Programs for Unauthorized Access to Customer Information.                

*Agency form number:*                     FR 4100.                

*OMB control number:*                     7100-0309.                

*Frequency:*                     Develop customer notice, one-time; Incident notification, event-generated.                

*Reporters:*                     Financial institutions.                

*Estimated annual reporting hours:*                     Develop response program, 456 hours; Incident notification, 5,436 hours.                

*Estimated average hours per response:*                     Develop response program, 24 hours; Incident notification, 36 hours.                

*Number of respondents:*                     Develop response program, 19; Incident notification, 151.                

*General description of report:*                     This information collection is mandatory (15 U.S.C. 6801(b)). Since the Federal Reserve does not collect information associated with the FR 4100, any issue of confidentiality would not generally be an issue. However, confidentiality may arise if the Federal Reserve were to obtain a copy of a customer notice during the course of an examination or were to receive a copy of a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR; FR 2230; OMB No. 7100-0212). In such cases the information would be exempt from disclosure to the public under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C 552(b)(3), (4), and (8)). Also, a federal employee is prohibited by law from disclosing a SAR or the existence of a SAR (31 U.S.C. 5318(g)).                

*Abstract:*                     The FR 4100 is the information collection associated with the                     *Interagency Guidance on Response Programs for Unauthorized Access to Customer Information and Customer Notice*                     (security guidelines), which was published in the                     **Federal Register**                     in March 2005 (70 FR 15736). Trends in customer information theft and the accompanying misuse of that information led to the issuance of these security guidelines applicable to financial institutions. The security guidelines are designed to facilitate timely and relevant notification to affected customers and the appropriate regulatory authority of the financial institutions. The security guidelines provide specific direction regarding the development of response programs and customer notifications.                

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, October 24, 2014.

Secretary of the Board.
