SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Analysis to Support Electronic 

Funds Transfer and Remittance 

Mandate. 

Abstract: As part of its eCollections 

Initiative, the Bureau of the Fiscal 

Service is proposing to amend Title 31 

CFR Part 206 regulations governing 

federal payments and collections. The 

proposal offers significant efficiencies 

and cost savings to the federal 

government by mandating that all nontax payments to the government and 

related remittance information be 

provided electronically. This proposed 

rule change is governed by the 

provisions of both Executive Order 

12866 (EO 12866) and the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601– 

612), which require the agency to 

conduct a cost-benefit analysis of 

regulatory alternatives and assessment 

of the economic impacts of the 

regulatory action on small entities. 

Fiscal Service seeks to obtain approval 

for a generic clearance to collect 

information and data from focus groups 

and telephone interviews to support the 

required economic analysis and assist in 

developing a Notice of Public 

Rulemaking. 

Current Actions: No current actions 

are ongoing related to the collection. 

Type of Review: New collection. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households, business or other for-profit 

organizations, and farms.
