SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of the Collection: Equal Access
to Justice Act.
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) Control Number: 3170–XXXX.
Type of Review: New collection of
information (request for new OMB
control number).
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; business or other for-profit;
and not-for-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 3.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 15.
Abstract: The Equal Access to Justice
Act (the Act) provides for payment of
fees and expenses to eligible parties
who have prevailed against the Bureau
in certain administrative proceedings. In
order to obtain an award, the statute and
associated regulations (12 CFR part
1071) require the filing of an application
that shows that the party is a prevailing
party and is eligible to receive an award
under the Act. The Bureau regulations
implementing the Act require the
collection of information related to the
application for an award in 12 CFR part
1071, Subparts B, C.
On June 29, 2012, the Bureau
published in the Federal Register an
interim final rule implementing the Act.
77 FR 39117. At that time, the Bureau
adopted the position that the rule did
not contain any information collection
requirements that required the approval
of OMB under the Paperwork Reduction
Act (the ‘‘PRA’’), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
The Bureau has since changed its
interpretation and now adopts the
position that the rule does contain
information collection requirements that
require the approval of OMB under the
PRA and invites the general public and
other Federal agencies to comment on
the proposed information collections.
Request for Comments: Comments are
invited on: (a) Whether the collection of
PO 00000
Frm 00018

information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Bureau, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the Bureau’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methods and the 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 collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. Comments submitted in
response to this notice will be
summarized and/or included in the
request for OMB approval. All
comments will become a matter of
public record.
