    Form 10-Q, SEC File No. 270-49, OMB Control No. 3235-0070

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the collection of 
information summarized below. The Commission plans to submit this 
existing collection of information to the office of Management and 
Budget for approval of extensions on the following:
    Form 10-Q (17 CFR 249.308a) is filed by issuers of securities to 
satisfy their quarterly reporting obligations pursuant to Section 13 or 
15(d) of the Exchange Act (``Exchange Act'') (15 U.S.C. 78m or 78o(d)). 
The information provided by Form 10-Q is intended to ensure the 
adequacy of information available to investors about an issuer. Form 
10-Q takes approximately 187.43 hours per response to prepare and is 
filed by approximately 22,907 respondents. We estimated that 75% of the 
approximately 187.43 hours per response (140.57 hours) is prepared by 
the company for an annual reporting burden of 3,220,037 hours (140.57 
hours per response x 22,907 responses).
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of 
burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the 
quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and (d) 
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information

technology. Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions 
submitted in writing within 60 days of this publication.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid control number.
    Please direct your written comment to Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Candace 
Kenner, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to: 
[email protected].

    Dated: July 3, 2018.

Assistant Secretary.
