SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC 
20549-0213.

Extension:
    Rule 0-2, Form ADV-NR; OMB Control No. 3235-0240, SEC File No. 
270-214.

    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'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for extension of the previously approved 
collection of information discussed below.
    The title for the collection of information is ``Rule 0-2 and Form 
ADV-NR under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.'' Rule 0-2 and Form 
ADV-NR facilitate service of process to non-resident investment 
advisers and their non-resident general partners or non-resident 
managing agents. The Form requires these persons to designate the 
Commission as agent for service of process. The purpose of this 
collection of information is to enable the commencement of legal and or 
regulatory actions against investment advisers that are doing business 
in the United States, but are not residents.
    The respondents to this information collection would be each non-
resident general partner or non-resident managing agent of an SEC-
registered adviser and of an exempt reporting adviser. The Commission 
has estimated that compliance with the requirement to complete Form 
ADV-NR imposes a total burden of approximately 1.0 hour for an adviser. 
Based on our experience with these filings, we estimate that we will 
receive 47 Form ADV-NR filings annually. Based on the 1.0 hour per 
respondent estimate, the Commission staff estimates a total annual 
burden of 47 hours for this collection of information.
    Rule 0-2 and Form ADV-NR do not require recordkeeping or records 
retention. The collection of information requirements under the rule 
and form is mandatory. The information collected pursuant to the rule 
and Form ADV-NR is a filing with the Commission. This filing is not 
kept confidential and must be preserved until at least three years 
after termination of the enterprise. 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 OMB control number.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following Web site, www.reginfo.gov. 
Please direct general comments regarding the above information to the 
following persons: (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) Thomas Bayer, Chief Information Officer, 
Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street 
NE., Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. 
Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 days of this notice.
