Report title: Recordkeeping
Requirements of Regulation H and

Jkt 226001
Reporters: State member banks; Edge
and agreement corporations; and U.S.
branches, agencies, and other offices of
foreign banks supervised by the Federal
Reserve.
Estimated annual reporting hours:
Establish compliance program, 128
hours; and maintenance of compliance
program, 4,476 hours.
Estimated average hours per response:
Establish compliance program, 16
hours; and maintenance of compliance
program, 4 hours.
Number of respondents: Establish
compliance program, 8; and
maintenance of compliance program,
1,119.
General description of report: This
information collection is mandatory
pursuant to the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)
(31 U.S.C. 513(h)). In addition, sections
11, 21, 25, and 25A of the Federal
Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 248(a), 483, 602,
and 611(a)) authorize the Federal
Reserve to require the information
collection and recordkeeping
requirements set forth in Regulations K
and H. Section 5 of the Bank Holding
Company Act (12 U.S.C. 1844) and
section 13(a) of the International
Banking Act (12 U.S.C. 3108(a)) provide
further authority for sections 211.5(m)
and 211.24(j)(1) of Regulation K. Since
the Federal Reserve does not collect any
information, no issue of confidentiality
normally arises. However, if a BSA
compliance program becomes a Federal
Reserve record during an examination,
the information may be protected from
disclosure under exemptions (b)(4) and
(8) of the Freedom of Information Act (5
U.S.C. 552(b)(4) and (b)(8)).
Abstract: Sections 211.5(m)(1) and
211.24(j)(1) of Regulation K require Edge
and agreement corporations and U.S.
branches, agencies, and other offices of
foreign banks supervised by the Federal
Reserve to establish and maintain
procedures reasonably designed to
ensure and monitor compliance with
the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and related
regulations. Section 208.63 of
Regulation H requires state member
banks to establish and maintain the
same procedures. There are no required
reporting forms associated with this
information collection.
Current actions: On January 6, 2012,
the Federal Reserve published a notice
in the Federal Register (77 FR 794)
requesting public comment for 60 days
on the extension, without revision, of
the Recordkeeping Requirements of
Regulation H and Regulation K
Associated with Bank Secrecy Act
Compliance Programs. The comment
period for this notice expired on March
6, 2012. The Federal Reserve did not
receive any comments.

Title: FPLA Rules, 16 CFR Parts 500–

OMB Control Number: 3084–0110.
Type of Review: Extension of
currently approved collection.
Number of Respondents: 857,490.
Frequency of Response: Once per

Abstract: The FPLA, 15 U.S.C. 1451–

consumer deception concerning product
size and package content. Section 4 of
the FPLA specifically requires packages
or labels to be marked with: (1) A
statement of identity; (2) a net quantity
of contents disclosure; and (3) the name
and place of business of a company that
is responsible for the product. The
FPLA rules, 16 CFR Parts 500–503,
specify how manufacturers, packagers,
and distributors of ‘‘consumer
commodities’’ 1 must do this.
On November 14, 2011, the
Commission sought comment on the
information collection requirements
1 ‘‘The term consumer commodity or commodity
means any article, product, or commodity of any
kind or class which is customarily produced or
distributed for sale through retail sales agencies or
instrumentalities for consumption by individuals,
or use by individuals for purposes of personal care
or in the performance of services ordinarily
rendered within the household, and which usually
is consumed or expended in the course of such
consumption or use.’’ 16 CFR 500.2(c). For the
precise scope of the term’s coverage see 16 CFR
500.2(c); 503.2; 503.5. See also https://www.ftc.gov/

Pursuant to the OMB rules, 5 CFR part
1320, that implement the PRA, 44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq., the FTC is providing
a second opportunity for the public to

to renew the pre-existing clearance for
the Rule.

(solely relating to disclosure 3);
(b) Labor Costs: $186,932,820;
(c) Capital/Non-Labor Costs: $0.
Request for Comment: You can file a
comment online or on paper. For the
Commission to consider your comment,
we must receive it on or before April 16,
2012. Write ‘‘Fair Packaging & Labeling
Regs, PRA Comments, P074200’’ on
your comment. Your comment—
including your name and your state—
will be placed on the public record of
this proceeding, including to the extent
practicable, on the public Commission
Web site, at https://www.ftc.gov/os/
publiccomments.shtm. As a matter of
discretion, the Commission tries to
remove individuals’ home contact
information from comments before
placing them on the Commission Web
site.
Because your comment will be made
public, you are solely responsible for
making sure that your comment does
not include any sensitive personal
information, like anyone’s Social
Security number, date of birth, driver’s
license number or other state
identification number or foreign country
equivalent, passport number, financial
account number, or credit or debit card
number. You are also solely responsible
for making sure that your comment does
not include any sensitive health
information, like medical records or
other individually identifiable health
information. In addition, do not include
any ‘‘[t]rade secret or any commercial or
financial information which is obtained
from any person and which is privileged
or confidential’’ as provided in Section
6(f) of the FTC Act 15 U.S.C. 46(f), and
FTC Rule 4.10(a)(2), 16 CFR 4.10(a)(2).
In particular, do not include
competitively sensitive information

the estimates for annual burden were detailed in the
November 14, 2011, Federal Register Notice. See 76
FR at 70451–70452.
3 To the extent that the FPLA-implementing rules
require sellers of consumer commodities to keep
records that substantiate ‘‘cents off,’’ ‘‘introductory
offer,’’ and/or ‘‘economy size’’ claims, Commission
staff believes that most, if not all, of the records that
sellers maintain would be kept in the ordinary
course of business, regardless of the legal mandates.
