general public and other Federal
agencies to comment on a proposed new
one-time collection of information, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35). The

protection programs in state nonmember
financial institutions.

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are
invited to submit written comments by

Protection Programs.’’ Copies of
comments may also be submitted to the
OMB desk officer for the FDIC, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget, New

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Steve Hanft, (202) 898–3907, or at the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Proposal to undertake the following
new collection of information:
Title: Study of Overdraft Protection
Programs.
OMB Number: New collection.
Frequency of Response: One-time.
Affected Public: State nonmember
financial institutions and data service
providers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
500.
Estimated Time per Response: Survey
questions: approximate average of 3
hours per respondent. Micro-data
collection: approximate average of 40
hours per respondent.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
Survey questions: 500 respondents
times 3 hours per = 1,500 hours.
Micro-data collection: 100
respondents (financial institutions and/
or service providers) times 40 hours per
= 4,000 hours.
VerDate Aug<31>2005
20:24 Aug 15, 2006
Jkt 208001
Total burden = 1,500 + 4,000 = 5,500
hours.
General Description of Collection: The
FDIC is planning a study of the
overdraft protection products offered by
financial institutions and the usage
patterns among depositors in those
institutions. The study requires
collection of data from financial
institutions that are not currently
included in the Call Reports or other
standard periodic regulatory reports.
These data will be collected in two
parts: a survey in which a sample of 500
state-chartered nonmember financial
institutions will, we anticipate, be asked
up to 85 questions about each type of
overdraft policy that they implement,
and an additional micro-data collection
in which more detailed information will
be collected from 100 of these
institutions. To minimize burden on
respondents, FDIC will use automated
data collection techniques wherever
possible. The study conforms to privacy
rules and will not request any
information that could be used to
identify individual bank customers,
such as name, address, or account
number. All data from, and identities of,
the financial institutions will remain
confidential. It is the intent of the FDIC
to publish only general findings of the
study.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the FDIC’s functions, including whether
the information has practical utility; (b)
the accuracy of the estimates of the
burden of the information collection; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the information collection on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
The FDIC will consider all comments
to determine the extent to which the
proposed information collection should
be modified prior to submission to OMB
for review and approval. After the
comment period closes, comments will
be summarized or included in the
FDIC’s request to OMB for approval of
the collection. All comments will
become a matter of public record.
Dated at Washington, DC, this 10th day of
August, 2006.
