Abstract

Rule 6h-1 (17 CFR 240.6h-1) requires respondents, who are national securities exchanges and national securities associations that trade security futures products, to: (1) require cash-settled security futures products to settle based on an opening price rather than a closing price and (2) require the exchange or association to halt trading in a security futures product for as long as trading in the underlying security, or trading in 50% of the underlying securities, is halted on the listing market. The information collection requires respondents to incur a one-time reporting burden to file its listing standards for security futures products with the Commission. The Commission uses the information to request public comment on the listing standards.

Abstract

The FDIC National Survey of Unbanked and Underbanked Households is a key component of the FDIC’s efforts to comply with a Congressional mandate that the FDIC conduct biennial surveys to provide “a fair estimate of the size and worth of the unbanked market in the United States” and to answer additional related questions. The Financial Services Household Survey is the only nationally- and state-representative survey of this type for the United States. The Household Survey is scheduled to be conducted in partnership with the U.S. Census Bureau as a supplement to its June 2023 Current Population Survey (CPS). The survey collects information on U.S. households’ use of bank accounts, prepaid cards, nonbank online payment services and nonbank financial transaction services, and bank and nonbank credit. The results of this biennial survey will be published by the FDIC, and help inform policymakers, bankers, and researchers about bank account ownership and how households use the banking system and nonbank products and services to meet their financial needs.

Abstract

The FR 3033p is the first part of a two-stage survey series, which is a census survey designed to identify the universe of finance companies eligible for potential inclusion in the FR 3033s. It gathers limited information including total assets, areas of specialization, and information on the corporate structure of such companies. The second part of this information collection, the FR 3033s, collects balance sheet data on major categories of consumer and business credit receivables and major liabilities, along with income and expenses, and is used to gather information on the scope of a company’s operations and loan and lease servicing activities. The data collected from this voluntary survey will be used for two purposes: to benchmark the consumer and business finance series collected on the Board’s monthly Domestic Finance Company Report of Consolidated Assets and Liabilities (FR 2248; OMB No. 7100-0005) and to increase the Federal Reserve’s understanding of an important part of the financial system.

Abstract

The FR 2510 collects granular exposure data on the assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet holdings of certain large banking organizations, providing breakdowns by country, instrument, currency, maturity, sector, and other factors, and also collects country exposure data on an immediate counterparty basis and detailed information on firms’ derivatives exposures. The respondent panel consists of bank holding companies (BHCs) headquartered in the United States that are global systemically important BHCs (U.S. G-SIBs) under the Board’s Regulation Q - Capital Adequacy of Bank Holding Companies, Savings and Loan Holding Companies, and State Member Banks (12 CFR Part 217). The information collected by the FR 2510 supports the Board’s supervision of U.S. G-SIBs by allowing for a more complete balance sheet analysis of these firms and allows the Board to more closely monitor the systemic impacts of such firms’ activities and investments.

Abstract

The National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) is a system designed to accumulate, exchange, and integrate relevant information and resources among private and public stakeholders to support local and national efforts to protect patients and promote healthcare safety. Specifically, the data is used to determine the magnitude of various healthcare-associated adverse events and trends in the rates of these events among patients and healthcare workers with similar risks. The data will be used to detect changes in the epidemiology of adverse events resulting from new and current medical therapies and changing risks. This is a change request that makes revisions to one form with no change to the burden. This change is not related to any E.O. or SPD-15.Emergency Justfication:Emergency Processing is requested to add three (3) additional pathogens of concern to the NHSN (OMB Control No. 0920-0666) data collection: Influenza A (H5), Marburg, and Oropouche. This requested update in disease surveillance will illustrate which patient populations are being affected by these pathogens and the potential need for additional healthcare infection prevention and control. Since this form is collecting data on hospitalized patients, the update will also help inform on the severity of illness a high consequence pathogen is causing as well as what region(s) of the country are affected. Data collection is vital to ensure that local and state authorities are supported to prepare for and respond to emerging outbreaks.

Abstract

The purpose of this information collection is to detect state and local community changes in unintentional and undetermined intent drug-related overdose mortality and provide in-depth state and local (e.g., county) information on risk factors for fatal drug overdose deaths (opioid and non-opioid). State public health departments will be funded to abstract standardized data elements from medical examiner/coroner (ME/C) reports as well as death certificates and will report this information to CDC using a web-based platform. Findings will be used to inform the selection and targeting of interventions in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. This Revision requests removal of a respondent and a modification of the burden hours.

Abstract

This information collection is designed to collect the MDN and response-specific data as needed, for confirmed, probable, and suspected cases of any disease or condition that is the subject of an emergency response at CDC. During an emergency response, CDC uses case data to inform actions that need to be taken at all levels of public health and by the public. State, tribal, local, and territorial (STLT) health departments and CDC need to exchange data on confirmed, probable, and suspected cases rapidly. Timely notification of cases from STLT to CDC is critical to provide situational awareness at the federal level to support decision making, particularly for public health threats. This Change Request is submitted to add new disease specific data elements (fields for outbreak status, CDC outbreak name, exposure dates, fields for 'other') for collection by CDC when individual GenICs are submitted under the 0920-1447 umbrella. Since each individual GenIC will differ, and will collect different data elements, there are no anticipated changes to the burden.

Abstract

The purpose of this request is to renew the currently OMB approved ICR and update the annual burden hour estimate. On December 16, 2015, FMCSA published a final rule entitled “Electronic Logging Devices and Hours of Service Supporting Documents,” (80 FR 78292) that established minimum performance and design standards for hours-of-service (HOS) ELDs; requirements for the mandatory use of these devices by drivers currently required to prepare HOS records of duty status (RODS); requirements concerning HOS supporting documents; and measures to address concerns about harassment resulting from the mandatory use of ELDs. To ensure consistency among ELD vendors and devices, detailed functional specifications were published as part of the December 2015 final rule. Each ELD vendor developing an ELD technology must register online at a secure FMCSA website where the ELD provider can securely certify that its ELD is compliant with the functional specifications. Each ELD vendor must certify that each ELD model and version has been sufficiently tested to meet the functional requirements in the rule under the conditions in which the ELD would be used. A motor carrier required to use an ELD must use only an ELD that is listed on FMCSA’s registered ELD list, accessible through the Agency’s Web site in accordance with 49 CFR 395.22. ELD providers are required to self-certify and register their devices with FMCSA online via an application Form MCSA-5893, “Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Vendor Registration and Certification.” Once completed, FMCSA will issue a unique identification number that the provider will embed in their device(s). The collection is mandatory reporting, where the ELD providers are expected report four times a year and will register an average of 2 devices. FMCSA maintains a list on their website of the current ELD vendors and devices that have been certified (by the vendors) to meet the technical specifications. The information is necessary for fleets and drivers to easily find a compliant ELD for their use in meeting the FMCSA regulation requiring the use of ELDs. Estimates of the number of respondents and responses has resulted in a program adjustment increase of an estimated annual 19 respondents, a decrease of 318 responses, and a decrease of 79 burden hours.

Abstract

The Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 (“VAWA”) protects qualified tenants, participants, applicants, and affiliated individuals in all HUD-covered housing programs, who are victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. On November 16, 2016, HUD published a final rule (VAWA Rule) at 81 FR 80724, implementing VAWA’s provisions in its housing programs. The VAWA Rule includes the following Appendices, which entail certain reporting and recordkeeping burdens: (A) Notice of Occupancy Rights Under the Violence Against Women Act; (B) Model Emergency Transfer Plan for Victims of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, or Stalking; (C) Certification of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, or Stalking, and Alternate Documentation; and (D) Emergency Transfer Request for Certain Victims of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, or Stalking. Under the VAWA Rule, PHAs, owners, and managers (collectively “Covered Housing Providers” or “CHPs”) Under the VAWA Rule, each CHP must make use of Appendix A and Appendix C, by providing copies of the Notice of Occupancy Rights and the Certification form. Each CHP presented with a claim for continued or initial tenancy or assistance, based on the victim’s status as a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, may request that the victim document or provide written evidence to demonstrate that the violence occurred, and Certification form is one such way of documenting the violence. Each CHP must also establish an emergency transfer plan, although it need not be modeled on Appendix B. CHPs’ use of an Emergency Transfer Request form, like the model in Appendix D, is also discretionary. CHPs must track and report annually to HUD if they have any Emergency Transfer Requests and outcomes. Finally, under the VAWA Rule, CHPs may opt to provide a lease bifurcation to VAWA-covered individuals.

Abstract

Training informs miners of safety and health hazards inherent in the workplace and enables them to identify and avoid such hazards. Training becomes even more important in light of certain conditions that can exist when production demands increase, such as: an influx of new and less experienced miners and mine operators; longer work hours to meet production demands; and increased demand for contractors who may be less familiar with the dangers on mine property. In addition, with respect to miner health and safety training, Section 115(c) of the Mine Act, 30 U.S.C. 825(c) provides that, upon completion of each training each operator shall certify that the miner has received the specified training in each subject area of the approved health and safety training plan (this information requirement is covered in control number 1205-0009) ; paragraphs (d) and (e) address the Secretary of Labor's rulemaking authority with respect to miner training. MSHA's objective in these existing health and safety training requirements is to ensure that all miners receive the required training, which would result in a decrease in accidents, injuries, and fatalities. MSHA enforces training requirements at approximately 11,657 surface nonmetal mines and contractors.
