Final Approval Under OMB Delegated
Authority To Pretest and Execute the
Following Information Collection
Report title: 2016 Survey of Consumer
Finances (SCF).
Agency form number: FR 3059.
OMB Control number: 7100–0287.
Frequency: One-time survey.
Reporters: U.S. families.
Estimated annual reporting hours:
Pretest: 188 hours and Main survey:
8,750 hours.
Estimated average hours per response:
Pretest, 75 minutes; and Main survey,
75 minutes.
Number of respondents: Pretest, 150;
and Main survey, 7,000.
General description of report: This
information collection is voluntary (12
U.S.C. 225a. and 263). The information
collected on the FR 3059 is exempt from
disclosure in identifiable form under the
Confidential Information Protection and
Statistical Efficiency Act (CIPSEA) and
section (b)(3) of the Freedom of
Information Act. (44 U.S.C. 3501, note,
and 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(3)).
Abstract: This would be the twelfth
triennial SCF since 1983, the beginning
of the current series. This survey is the
only source of representative
information on the structure of U.S.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

families’ finances. The survey would
collect data on the assets, debts, income,
work history, pension rights, use of
financial services, and attitudes of a
sample of U.S. families. Because the
ownership of some assets is relatively
concentrated in a small number of
families, the survey would make a
special effort to ensure proper
representation of such assets by
systematically oversampling wealthier
families.
Current Actions: On October 29, 2014,
the Federal Reserve published a notice
in the Federal Register (79 FR 64388)
requesting public comment for 60 days
regarding the pretest and execution of
the 2016 Survey of Consumer Finances
(SCF). The comment period for this
notice expired on December 29, 2014.
The Federal Reserve did not receive any
comments. The survey will be
conducted as proposed.
Final Approval Under OMB Delegated
Authority of the Extension for Three
Years, Without Revision, of the
Following Information Collection
Report title: The Recordkeeping and
Disclosure Requirements Associated
with the Guidance on Response
Programs for Unauthorized Access to
Customer Information.
Agency form number: FR 4100.
OMB control number: 7100–0309.
Frequency: Develop customer notice,
one-time; Incident notification, eventgenerated.
Reporters: Financial institutions.
Estimated annual reporting hours:
Develop response program, 456 hours;
Incident notification, 5,436 hours.
Estimated average hours per response:
Develop response program, 24 hours;
Incident notification, 36 hours.
Number of respondents: Develop
response program, 19; Incident
notification, 151.
General description of report: This
information collection is mandatory (15
U.S.C. 6801(b)). Since the Federal
Reserve does not collect information
associated with the FR 4100, any issue
of confidentiality would not generally
be an issue. However, confidentiality
may arise if the Federal Reserve were to
obtain a copy of a customer notice
during the course of an examination or
were to receive a copy of a Suspicious
Activity Report (SAR; FR 2230; OMB
No. 7100–0212). In such cases the
information would be exempt from
disclosure to the public under the
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C
552(b)(3), (4), and (8)). Also, a federal
employee is prohibited by law from
disclosing a SAR or the existence of a
SAR (31 U.S.C. 5318(g)).

Abstract: The FR 4100 is the
information collection associated with
the Interagency Guidance on Response
Programs for Unauthorized Access to
Customer Information and Customer
Notice (security guidelines), which was
published in the Federal Register in
March 2005 (70 FR 15736). Trends in
customer information theft and the
accompanying misuse of that
information led to the issuance of these
security guidelines applicable to
financial institutions. The security
guidelines are designed to facilitate
timely and relevant notification to
affected customers and the appropriate
regulatory authority of the financial
institutions. The security guidelines
provide specific direction regarding the
development of response programs and
customer notifications.
Current Actions: On October 29, 2014,
the Federal Reserve published a notice
in the Federal Register (79 FR 64388)
requesting public comment for 60 days
on the extension, without revision, of
the Recordkeeping and Disclosure
Requirements Associated with the
Guidance on Response Programs for
Unauthorized Access to Customer
Information. The comment period for
this notice expired on December 29,
2014. The Federal Reserve did not
receive any comments. The information
collection will be extended as proposed.
