SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services,

[[Page 28929]]

100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549-2736.

Extension:
    Rule 19d-3; SEC File No. 270-245, OMB Control No. 3235-0204.

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (``PRA''), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of the 
previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 19d-
3 (17 CFR 240.19d-3) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 
U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
    Rule 19d-3 prescribes the form and content of applications to the 
Commission by persons seeking Commission review of final disciplinary 
actions against them taken by self-regulatory organizations (``SROs'') 
for which the Commission is the appropriate regulatory agency. The 
Commission uses the information provided in the application filed 
pursuant to Rule 19d-3 to review final actions taken by SROs including: 
(1) final disciplinary sanctions; (2) denial or conditioning of 
membership, participation or association; and (3) prohibitions or 
limitations of access to services offered by a SRO or member thereof.
    It is estimated that approximately six respondents will utilize 
this application procedure annually, with a total burden of 
approximately 108 hours, for all respondents to complete all 
submissions. This figure is based upon past submissions. The Commission 
staff estimates that each respondent will submit approximately one 
response and the average number of hours necessary to comply with the 
requirements of Rule 19d-3 is approximately eighteen hours. The average 
cost per hour, to complete each submission, is approximately $101. 
Therefore, it is estimated the internal labor cost of compliance for 
all respondents is approximately $10,908 (6 submissions x 18 hours per 
response x $101 per hour).
    The filing of an application pursuant to Rule 19d-3 is voluntary 
and does not involve the collection of confidential information. Rule 
19d-3 does not have a record retention requirement.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it 
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information 
collection 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 
Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office Building, 
Washington, DC 20503 or by sending an email to: 
Shagufta_Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Pamela C. Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549, or by sending an 
email to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 
30 days of this notice.

    Dated: May 4, 2016.
Robert W. Errett,
Deputy Secretary.
