and wildlife agencies, Indian tribes, and
others. The recommendations and

collected in Council document 2008–06.
The Council provided notice of the
amendment recommendations to
interested parties and the public and
asked for comments. The comments on
the recommendations are collected in
Council document 2008–09. The
Council then based its program
amendments on the amendment
recommendations submitted to the
Council by the deadline, data and
information submitted in support of the
recommendations, the comments
received on the recommendations, and
consultations with fish and wildlife
agencies, Indian tribes, Bonneville
customers, and others. The
recommendations, supporting
information, comments on the
recommendations, and the Council’s
proposed program amendments (in
Council document 2008–11) are all
found on the Council’s Web site at

2008amend.
The Council will accept written
public comment on the proposed
program amendments through October
30, 2008 and will hold public hearings
to take written and oral comments in
Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and
Washington from mid-September
through mid-October. For more
information on the day, time and
locations for the public hearings, please

Council’s Central Offices at (503) 222–

may schedule additional public
hearings or consultations if necessary.
The Council expects to make final
decisions on the proposed amendments
at the Council’s meeting in Portland,
Oregon, on December 9–11, 2008. At the
end of this process, the Council will
make findings required by the
Northwest Power Act regarding any
recommendations the Council rejects.

Extension: Rule 22d–1, Sec File No. 270–275,
OMB Control No. 3235–0310.
Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collections of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension
and approval.
Rule 22d–1 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the ‘‘Act’’) (17
CFR 270.22d–1) provides registered
investment companies that issue
redeemable securities (‘‘funds’’) an
exemption from section 22(d) of the
Investment Company Act (15 U.S.C.
80a–22(d)) to the extent necessary to
permit scheduled variations in or
elimination of the sales load on fund
securities for particular classes of
investors or transactions, provided
certain conditions are met. The rule
imposes an annual burden per series of
a fund of approximately 15 minutes, so
that the total annual burden for the
approximately 4,735 series of funds that
might rely on the rule is estimated to be
1,184 hours.
The estimate of average burden hours
is made solely for the purposes of the
Paperwork Reduction Act, and is not
derived from a comprehensive or even
a representative survey or study. 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 OMB control
number.
Written comments are requested on:
(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information has practical utility; (b) the
accuracy of the Commission’s estimate
of the burden(s) of the collection of

information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology. Consideration will be given
to comments and suggestions submitted
in writing within 60 days of this
publication.
Please direct your written comments

Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for approval of extension of the
following previously approved
collection of information as discussed
below.
• Rule 17Ab2–1 and Form CA–1:
Registration of Clearing Agencies (17
CFR 240.17Ab2–1)
Rule 17Ab2–1 and Form CA–1 require
clearing agencies to register with the
Commission and to meet certain
requirements with regard to, among
other things, a clearing agency’s
organization, capacities, and rules. The
information is collected from the
clearing agency upon the initial
application for registration on Form
CA–1. Thereafter, information is
collected by amendment to the initial
Form CA–1 when material changes in
circumstances necessitate modification
of the information previously provided
to the Commission.
PO 00000
Frm 00109
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
The Commission uses the information
disclosed on Form CA–1 to (i)
Determine whether an applicant meets
the standards for registration set forth in
Section 17A of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (‘‘Exchange Act’’), (ii)
enforce compliance with the Exchange
Act’s registration requirement, and (iii)
provide information about specific
registered clearing agencies for
compliance and investigatory purposes.
Without Rule 17Ab2–1, the Commission
could not perform these duties as
statutorily required.
There are currently approximately six
operational clearing agencies and five
clearing agencies that have been granted
an exemption from registration. The
Commission staff estimates that each
initial Form CA–1 requires
approximately 130 hours to complete
and submit for approval. Hours required
for amendments to Form CA–1 that
must be submitted to the Commission in
connection with material changes to the
initial CA–1 can vary, depending upon
the nature and extent of the amendment.
Since the Commission only receives an
average of one submission per year, the
aggregate annual burden associated with
compliance with Rule 17Ab2–1 and
Form CA–1 is 130 hours. Based upon
the staff’s experience, the average cost to
clearing agencies of preparing and filing
the initial Form CA–1 is estimated to be
$18,000. There is no recordkeeping
requirement for Rule 17Ab2–1 or Form
CA–1. The rule and form do not involve
the collection of confidential
information. Please note that 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.
General comments regarding the
estimated burden hours should be
directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the
Securities and Exchange Commission,
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, Room 10102, New Executive
Office Building, Washington, DC 20503
or by sending an e-mail to:

Chief Information Officer, Securities
and Exchange Commission, C/O Shirley
Martinson, 6432 General Green Way,
Alexandria, Virginia 22312; or by
sending an e-mail to:
PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must
be submitted to OMB within 30 days of
this notice.
