SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:50 Nov 04, 2011
Jkt 226001
The earliest postmark date is October 6,
2011. The Commission hereby institutes
a proceeding under 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(5)
and establishes Docket No. A2012–35 to
consider Petitioners’ appeal. If
Petitioners would like to further explain
their position with supplemental
information or facts, Petitioners may
either file a Participant Statement on
PRC Form 61 or file a brief with the
Commission no later than November 29,
2011.
Categories of issues apparently raised.
Petitioners contend that (1) the Postal
Service failed to consider the effect of
the closing on the community (see 39
U.S.C. 404(d)(2)(A)(i)); (2) 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)); (3) the
Postal Service failed to adequately
consider the economic savings resulting
from the closure (see 39 U.S.C.
404(d)(2)(A)(iv)); and (4) Petitioners
contend that the Postal Service failed to
provide substantial evidence in support
of the determination (see 39 U.S.C.
404(d)(5)(c)).
After the Postal Service files the
administrative record and the
Commission reviews it, the Commission
may find that there are more legal issues
than the one 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 November 9, 2011.
See 39 CFR 3001.113. In addition, the
due date for any responsive pleading by
the Postal Service to this notice is
November 9, 2011.
Availability; Web site posting. The
Commission has posted the appeal and
supporting material on its Web site at

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’’) is soliciting comments
on the existing collection of information
provided for in Rule 15c1–5 (17 CFR
240.15c1–5) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.). The Commission plans to submit
this existing collection of information to
the Office of Management and Budget
for extension and approval.
Rule 15c1–5 states that any brokerdealer controlled by, controlling, or
under common control with the issuer
of a security that the broker-dealer is
trying to sell to or buy from a customer
must give the customer written
notification disclosing the control
relationship at or before completion of
the transaction. The Commission
estimates that 241 respondents collect
information annually under Rule 15c1–
5 and that each respondent would
spend approximately 10 hours per year
collecting this information (2,410 hours
in aggregate). There is no retention
period requirement under Rule 15c1–5.

information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
estimates 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.
The Commission may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid
control number. No person shall be
subject to any penalty for failing to
comply with a collection of information
subject to the PRA that does display a
valid Office of Management (OMB)
control number.
