SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract and Request for Comments

    NCUA is amending/reinstating the collection for 3133-0033. NCUA is 
renewing the requirements for Federally Insured Credit Unions to 
maintain an information security program and an incident response plan 
that complies with Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, 15 U.S.C. 
6801 et seq. Section 748.0 of NCUA's Rules and Regulations, 12 CFR 
748.0, directs federally insured credit unions to adopt a security 
program that includes ensuring the security and confidentiality of 
member records, protecting against the anticipated threats or hazards 
to the security or integrity of such records, and protecting against 
unauthorized access to or use of such records that could result in 
substantial harm or serious inconvenience to a member. The security 
program also contains a requirement to respond to incidents of 
unauthorized access to or use of member information that could result 
in substantial harm or serious inconvenience to a member. Proper 
incident response includes a notification requirement to the affected 
member. NCUA examiners review the programs to determine whether the 
credit union's procedures comply with the information security and 
incident response requirements. There is a decrease of 39,776 hours 
from the last submission (2007). The decrease is a result of an 
adjustment to the number of credit unions from 8,695 to 6,753. This 
decline is from credit union mergers and liquidations.
    The NCUA requests that you send your comments on this collection to 
the location listed in the addresses section. Your comments should 
address: (a) The necessity of the information collection for the proper 
performance of NCUA, including whether the information will have 
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of our estimate of the burden 
(hours and cost) of the collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways we could 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (d) ways we could minimize the burden of the collection 
of the information on the respondents such as through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology. It is NCUA's policy to make all comments available to the 
public for review.
