SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Disclosure and Retention of
Certain Information Related to Cleared
Swaps Customer Collateral (OMB
Control No. 3038–0091). This is a
request for extension of a currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: Part 22 of the Commission’s
regulations under the Commodity
Exchange Act (Act) establish rules for
the protection of customer collateral
held by futures commission merchants
and derivatives clearing organizations to
serve as margin in cleared swaps
transactions. As part of this regulatory
scheme, sections 22.2(g), 22.5(a), 22.11,
22.12, and 22.16 of these rules impose
recordkeeping and third-party
disclosure requirements on futures
commission merchants and designated
clearing organizations. In addition,
section 22.13(c)(2) indirectly requires
futures commission merchants who post
excess collateral with designated
clearing organizations to perform certain
computations regarding such collateral,
although it is not expected to materially
affect the total paperwork burden
associated with Part 22.
The reporting and recordkeeping
requirements of Part 22 constitute the
collection of information within the
meaning of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. 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.
The Part 22 rules were promulgated
earlier this year and the associated
collection of information was assigned
OMB control number 3038–0091. See
Final Rule, 77 FR 6336, 6370–71
(February 7, 2012). The Federal Register
notice for the 60-day comment period
on this renewal of a collection of
information was published on October
2, 2012 (77 FR 60114). That notice
included a description of the specific
recordkeeping and third-party
disclosure required by the relevant rule
provisions. No comments were received
in response to the 60-day notice.
Burden statement: The Commission
estimates the burden of this collection
of information as follows:

Notes: 1. There is no reporting (in the sense
of reporting information to the government as
opposed to third-party disclosure to private
parties) requirement or burden in connection
with information collection under 17 CFR
part 22 and Control Number 3038–0091.
2. In the 60-notice for this renewal of a
collection of information, the CFTC stated
that there were estimated to be no capital
costs or operating and maintenance costs
associated with this collection. Upon further
consideration, the CFTC has determined that
the costs associated with rules 22.11 and
22.12 are appropriately classified as start-up
costs and operating and maintenance costs as
those terms are used with regard to
Paperwork Reduction Act burden estimates
in the Office of Management and Budget
regulatory information system. This
reclassification does not alter the substance
of the recordkeeping and third-party
disclosure requirements in question or the
associated total cost set forth in the 60-day
notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Disclosure and Retention of Certain Information Related to
Cleared Swaps Customer Collateral (OMB Control No. 3038-0091). This is
a request for extension of a currently approved information collection.
Abstract: Part 22 of the Commission's regulations under the
Commodity Exchange Act (Act) establish rules for the protection of
customer collateral held by futures commission merchants and
derivatives clearing organizations to serve as margin in cleared swaps
transactions. As part of this regulatory scheme, sections 22.2(g),
22.5(a), 22.11, 22.12, and 22.16 of these rules impose recordkeeping

indirectly requires futures commission merchants who post excess
collateral with designated clearing organizations to perform certain
computations regarding such collateral, although it is not expected to
materially affect the total paperwork burden associated with Part 22.
The reporting and recordkeeping requirements of Part 22 constitute
the collection of information within the meaning of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. 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. The Part 22
rules were promulgated earlier this year and the associated collection
of information was assigned OMB control number 3038-0091. See Final
Rule, 77 FR 6336, 6370-71 (February 7, 2012). The Federal Register
notice for the 60-day comment period on this renewal of a collection of
information was published on October 2, 2012 (77 FR 60114). That notice
included a description of the specific recordkeeping and third-party
disclosure required by the relevant rule provisions. No comments were
received in response to the 60-day notice.
