Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 73 / Monday, April 17, 2006 / Notices resulting in a total cost of compliance for these respondents of $4,800 per year (48 hours @ $100). In addition, approximately 2,000 broker-dealers must comply with Rule 9b–1. Each of these respondents will process an average of three new customers for options each week and, therefore, will have to furnish approximately 156 ODDs per year. The postal mailing or electronic delivery of the ODD takes respondents no more than 30 seconds to complete for an annual compliance burden for each of these respondents of 78 minutes, or 1.3 hours. Thus, the total compliance burden per year is 2,600 hours (2,000 broker-dealers × 1.3 hours). The approximate cost per hour to these respondents is $10 per hour, resulting in a total cost of compliance for these respondents of $26,000 per year (2,600 hours @ $10). The total compliance burden for all respondents under this rule (both options markets and broker-dealers) is 2648 hours per year (48 + 2,600), and total compliance costs of $30,800 ($4,800 + $26,000). 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.
