Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents: 18
respondents; 18 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Voluntary.
Total Annual Burden: 18 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
In general, there is no need for
confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: The Federal
Communications Commission (‘‘FCC’’)
proposes to establish a new information
collection (IC) titled ‘‘International
Special Projects (ISP) Petitions for
Declaratory Ruling.’’ The purpose of this
information collection is to facilitate the
public’s voluntary filing of
miscellaneous requests with the FCC,
such as a waiver of the Commission’s
rules or foreign ownership matters, in
an electronic module in the
International Bureau’s Filing System
(IBFS). Filers have the option to upload
paper copies of documents in IBFS in
lieu of mailing documents to the FCC
Secretary’s Office. However, they may
file documents in the FCC Secretary’s
Office by postal mail instead of filing
them electronically in IBFS. The filing
of documents in IBFS saves time and
costs for the general public since they
would save the cost of postage to mail
the documents to the FCC. It also
guarantees that when the respondents
‘‘submit’’ their documents in IBFS,
those documents are received at the FCC
on the same day.
Furthermore, FCC staff and members
of the public can track the receipt and
status of documents received
electronically in the IBFS.

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Information
Collection; Comment Request
Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC).
ACTION: Notice and request for comment.
pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The FDIC, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to comment on a proposed new
collection of information, as required by
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. chapter 35). The collection is
related to a mandate under section 7 of
the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform
Conforming Amendments Act of 2005
(‘‘Reform Act’’) (Pub. L. 109–173),
which calls for the FDIC to conduct
ongoing surveys ‘‘on efforts by insured
depository institutions to bring those
individuals and families who have
rarely, if ever, held a checking account,
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 214001
a savings account or other type of
transaction or check cashing account at
an insured depository institution
(hereafter in this section referred to as
the ‘unbanked’) into the conventional
finance system.’’ Section 7 further
instructs the FDIC to consider several
factors in its conduct of the surveys,
including: (1) ‘‘What cultural, language
and identification issues as well as
transaction costs appear to most prevent
‘unbanked’ individuals from
establishing conventional accounts’’;
and (2) ‘‘what is a fair estimate of the
size and worth of the ‘unbanked’ market
in the United States.’’ To satisfy the
Congressional mandate, the FDIC
intends to conduct two complementary
surveys. One is a survey of FDICinsured depository institutions on their
efforts to serve underbanked, as well as
unbanked, populations (underbanked
populations include individuals who
have an account with an insured
depository but also rely on non-bank
alternative financial service providers
for transaction services or high-cost
credit products). The FDIC has already
obtained OMB approval for this survey
and the survey effort is currently in
process. The other is a survey of U.S.
households to estimate the size and
worth of the unbanked and
underbanked markets and to identify
the factors that inhibit their

participation in the mainstream banking
system. The household survey would be
conducted for the FDIC by the U.S.
Bureau of the Census, as a supplement
to its monthly Current Population
Survey (CPS) in January 2009. This
notice addresses the household survey.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before July 18, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties are
invited to submit written comments by
any of the following methods. All
