Amanda Olear, Associate Director,
Division of Swap Dealer and
Intermediary Oversight, Commodity
Futures Trading Commission, 1155 21st
Street NW., Washington, DC 20581;
(202) 418–5283; email: aolear@cftc.gov,
and refer to OMB Control No. 3038–
0023.
Under the
PRA, Federal agencies must obtain
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for each collection
of information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of Information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3
and includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A), requires Federal agencies
to provide a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, the CFTC is publishing
notice of the proposed collection of
information listed below.
Title: ‘‘Commodity Pool Operators
and Commodity Trading Advisors:
Amendments to Compliance
Obligations,’’ (OMB Control No. 3038–
0023). This is a request for extension of
a currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: Pursuant to the Commodity
Exchange Act, as amended by the DoddFrank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act (‘‘Dodd-Frank Act’’),
Public Law 111–203, 124 Stat. 1376
(2010), the CFTC promulgated rules and
forms relating to registration with the
Commission applicable to
intermediaries, and employees and
principals thereof, operating in the
futures, options, swaps, and retail forex
markets. There were no new
requirements imposed; however, due to
amendments to the Commodity
Exchange Act made by the Dodd-Frank
Act, there was an increase in registrants
in certain registration categories.
With respect to the collection of
information, the CFTC invites
comments on:
• Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information will have a practical use;
• The accuracy of the Commission’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
• Ways to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden of
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.
All comments must be submitted in
English, or if not, accompanied by an
English translation. Comments will be
posted as received to https://www.
cftc.gov. You should submit only
information that you wish to make
available publicly. If you wish the
Commission to consider information
that you believe is exempt from
disclosure under the Freedom of
Information Act, a petition for
confidential treatment of the exempt
information may be submitted according
to the procedures established in § 145.9
of the Commission’s regulations.1
The Commission reserves the right,
but shall have no obligation, to review,
pre-screen, filter, redact, refuse or
remove any or all of your submission
from https://www.cftc.gov that it may
deem to be inappropriate for
publication, such as obscene language.
All submissions that have been redacted
or removed that contain comments on
the merits of the ICR will be retained in
the public comment file and will be
considered as required under the
Administrative Procedure Act and other
applicable laws, and may be accessible
under the Freedom of Information Act.
