of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of the

certain recordkeeping and disclosure requirements for NRSROs. 
Currently,

[[Page 46116]]

there are 10 credit rating agencies registered as NRSROs with the 
Commission. Based on staff experience and comments received during the 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information, the Commission estimates that the revised ongoing annual 
burden for respondents to comply with Rule 17g-1 and Form NRSRO is 
2,750 hours. In addition, the Commission estimates an industry-wide 
annual external cost to NRSROs of $4,000 to comply with the 
requirements.
    The Commission may not conduct or sponsor a collection of 
information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. No 
person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a 
collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a 
valid OMB control number.
    Background documentation for this information collection may be 
viewed at the following Web site: www.reginfo.gov. Comments should be 
directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
