Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. sections 4(i), 302, 303(c), 303(f), 303(g), 303(r), and 309(a). Total Annual Burden: 21,160 hours.

Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this information collection as a revision to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) after this comment period to obtain the full three year clearance from them. There is a change in the Commission’s burden estimates. The 60 hour program change increase is due to the new reporting requirement which is discussed further below. There is also a 12,000 hour adjustment increase in burden which VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:22 May 17, 2010 Jkt 220001 reflects the significant number of laboratories filing test site descriptions. This increase has been observed in the recent past, and is in large part due to Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRAs) signed with various foreign economic entities, by testing facilities filing site descriptions under Section 2.948, prior to submittal of equipment for authorization. The revision for this information collection is as follows: On September 14, 2009, the Commission’s Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) identified and requested comment on certain types of information that an applicant should provide to be considered an accreditation body of test laboratories under the Commission’s rules, see DA 09–2049. Under the Commission’s rules, section 2.948(d) sets forth the requirements for accreditation bodies seeking recognition from the FCC as a laboratory accreditation body. Accreditation bodies seeking such recognition from the Commission must file a report of their qualifications with the OET. They are only required to file this information once. The Commission currently has two recognized accreditation bodies, and is about to recognize a third. Additional accreditation bodies may be recognized. The currently OMB–approved requirements for this information collection requires that each Electro– Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing facility that performs equipment testing in support of any request for equipment authorization to file a test site description, either with the Commission or with a Commission–approved accrediting body. The test site description and the supporting information documents that the EMC testing facility complies with the testing standards used to make the measurements that support any request for equipment authorization. PO 00000 Frm 00079 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 27779 In addition, the referenced 47 CFR Part 15 rules require that equipment manufacturers insert in their files a statement explaining the basis on which it relies to ensure that at least 97.5% of all production units of the test sample that are manufactured have a noise figure of no greater than 14 dB. The Commission or the accrediting body uses the information from these test sites and supporting documentation, which accompany all requests for equipment authorization: 1) to ensure that the data are valid and that proper testing procedures are used; 2) to ensure that potential interference to radio communications is controlled; and 3) to investigate complaints of harmful interference or to verify the manufacturer’s compliance with 47 CFR rule sections 2.948and 15.117(g)(2) of the Commission’s rules.

ACTION: Notice and request for comment. SUMMARY: The FDIC, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on continuing information collections, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35). Currently, the FDIC is soliciting comments concerning the following collections of information titled: Application For Consent to Exercise Trust Powers (3064–0025), and Insurance Sales Consumer Protections (3064–0140). DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before July 19, 2010. ADDRESSES: Interested parties are invited to submit written comments by any of the following methods. All comments should refer to the name and number of the collection: • https://www.FDIC.gov/regulations/ laws/federal/notices.html. • 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, Federal Deposit VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:22 May 17, 2010 Jkt 220001 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. A copy of the 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 Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.

Form Number: FDIC 6200/09. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Affected Public: Insured State nonmember banks wishing to exercise trust powers. Estimated Number of Respondents: 15. Estimated Time per Response for Eligible Depository Institutions: 8 hours. Estimated Time per Response for Institutions that do not Qualify as Eligible Institutions: 24 hours. Total Annual Burden: 200 hours. General Description of Collection: FDIC regulations (12 CFR 333.2) prohibit any insured State nonmember bank from changing the general character of its business without the prior written consent of the FDIC. The exercise of trust powers by a bank is usually considered to be a change in the general character of a bank’s business if the bank did not exercise those powers previously. Therefore, unless a bank is currently exercising trust powers, it must file a formal application to obtain the FDIC’s written consent to exercise trust powers. State banking authorities, not the FDIC, grant trust powers to their banks. The FDIC merely consents to the exercise of such powers. Applicants use form FDIC 6200/09 to obtain FDIC’s consent. 2. Title: Consumer Protections for Depository Institution Sales of Insurance. OMB Number: 3064–0140. Form Number: None. Frequency of Response: On occasion.

General Description of Collection: Respondents must prepare and provide certain disclosures to consumers (e.g., that insurance products and annuities are not FDIC-insured) and obtain consumer acknowledgments, at two different times: (1) Before the completion of the initial sale of an insurance product or annuity to a consumer; and (2) at the time of application for the extension of credit (if insurance products or annuities are sold, solicited, advertised, or offered in connection with an extension of credit). Request for Comment Comments are invited on: (a) Whether these collections of information are 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 collections, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (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 collections on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. At the end of the comment period, the comments and recommendations received will be analyzed to determine the extent to which the collections should be modified prior to submission to OMB for review and approval. Comments submitted in response to this notice also will be summarized or included in the FDIC’s requests to OMB for renewal of these collections. All comments will become a matter of public record. Dated at Washington, DC, this 13th day of May 2010. Robert E. Feldman, Executive Secretary, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
