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. Federal Communications Commission. Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary.

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 17:18 May 16, 2008 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 PO 00000 Frm 00031 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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 comments should refer to ‘‘National Unbanked and Underbanked Household Survey’’: • https://www.FDIC.gov/regulations/ laws/federal/. • E-mail: comments@fdic.gov. Include the name and number of the collection in the subject line of the message. • Mail: Leneta Gregorie (202–898– 3719), Counsel, Legal Division, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, 550 17th Street, NW., Washington, DC 20429. • Hand Delivery: Comments may be hand-delivered to the guard station at the rear of the 550 17th Street Building (located on F Street), on business days between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Interested members of the public may obtain a copy of the survey and related instructions by clicking on the link for the National Unbanked and E:\FR\FM\19MYN1.SGM 19MYN1
