FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Stephen L. Sharfman, General Counsel,
at 202–789–6820 (case-related
information) or DocketAdmins@prc.gov
(electronic filing assistance).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that, pursuant to 39 U.S.C.
404(d), on September 1, 2011, the
Commission received a petition for
review of the Postal Service’s
determination to close the Gepp post
office in Gepp, Arkansas. The petition
was filed online by Kathy Adams on
behalf of the Concerned Patrons of Gepp
Post Office (Petitioner). The
Commission hereby institutes a
proceeding under 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(5)
and establishes Docket No. A2011–60 to
consider Petitioner’s appeal. If
Petitioner would like to further explain
her position with supplemental
information or facts, Petitioner may
either file a Participant Statement on
PRC Form 61 or file a brief with the
Commission no later than October 6,
2011.
Categories of issues apparently raised.
Petitioner contends that: (1) The Postal
Service failed to consider whether or
not it will continue to provide a
maximum degree of effective and
regular postal services to the community
(see 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(2)(A)(iii)); and (2)
the Postal Service failed to adequately
consider the economic savings resulting
from the closure (see 39 U.S.C.
404(d)(2)(A)(iv)).
After the Postal Service files the
administrative record and the
Commission reviews it, the Commission
may find that there are more legal issues
than those set forth above, or that the
Postal Service’s determination disposes
of one or more of those issues. The
deadline for the Postal Service to file the
applicable administrative record with
the Commission is September 16, 2011.
See 39 CFR 3001.113. In addition, the
due date for any responsive pleading by
the Postal Service to this Notice is
September 16, 2011.

Rule 6e–2 and Form N–6EI–1, SEC File No.
270–177, OMB Control No. 3235–0177.
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 (the
‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection 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 6e–2 (17 CFR 270.6e–2) under
the Investment Company Act of 1940
(‘‘Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 80a) is an exemptive
rule that provides separate accounts
formed by life insurance companies to
fund certain variable life insurance
products, exemptions from certain
provisions of the Act, subject to
conditions set forth in the rule. The rule
sets forth several information collection
requirements.
Rule 6e–2 provides a separate account
with an exemption from the registration
provisions of section 8(a) of the Act if
the account files with the Commission
Form N–6EI–1, a notification of claim of
exemption.
The rule also exempts a separate
account from a number of other sections
of the Act, provided that the separate
account makes certain disclosure in its
registration statements (in the case of
VerDate Mar<15>2010
19:00 Sep 13, 2011
Jkt 223001
those separate accounts that elect to
register), reports to contractholders,
proxy solicitations, and submissions to
state regulatory authorities, as
prescribed by the rule.
Paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e–2 provides
an exemption from the requirements of
section 17(f) of the Act and imposes a
reporting burden and certain other
conditions. Section 17(f) requires that
every registered management company
meet various custody requirements for
its securities and similar investments.
The exemption provided in paragraph
(b)(9) applies only to management
accounts that offer life insurance
contracts.
Since 2008, there have been no filings
under paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e–2 by
management accounts. Therefore, since
2008, there has been no cost or burden
to the industry regarding the
information collection requirements of
paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e–2. In
addition, there have been no filings of
Form N–6EI–1 by separate accounts
since 2008. The Commission requests
authorization to maintain an inventory
of one burden hour for administrative
purposes.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be 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.
