Final approval under OMB delegated
authority of the extension for three
years, without revision, of the following
reports:
1. Report title: Intermittent Survey of
Business.
Agency form number: FR 1374.
OMB control number: 7100–0302.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondents: Businesses and state
and local governments.
Estimated number of respondents:
2,410.
Estimated average hours per response:
15 minutes.
Estimated annual burden hours: 1,825
hours.
General Description of Report: The
survey data are used by the Federal
Reserve to gather information
specifically tailored to the Federal
Reserve’s policy and operational
responsibilities. There are two parts to
this event-generated survey. First, under
the guidance of Federal Reserve
economists, the Federal Reserve Banks
survey business contacts as economic
developments warrant. Currently, there
are approximately 2,400 business
respondents for each survey (about 200
per Reserve Bank); occasionally state
and local government officials are
called, in which case there are far fewer
respondents. It is necessary to conduct
these surveys to provide timely
information to the members of the Board
and to the presidents of the Reserve
Banks. Usually, these surveys are
conducted by Reserve Bank economists
telephoning or emailing purchasing
managers, economists, or other
knowledgeable individuals at selected,
relevant businesses. Reserve Bank staff
may also use online survey tools to

collect responses to the survey. The
frequency and content of the questions,
as well as the entities contacted, vary
depending on developments in the
economy. Second, economists at the
Board survey business contacts by
telephone, inquiring about current
business conditions. Board economists
conduct these surveys as economic
conditions require, with approximately
ten respondents for each survey.
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The Board’s Legal
Division has determined that the Board
is authorized to collect this information
under sections 2A and 12A of the
Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 225a and
263) and that respondent participation
in the survey is voluntary. Although the
names of the participating entities might
be disclosed in the summary memo and
the memo might contain information
provided to the Board for internal use
only, exemption 4 of the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)) may
exempt this information from disclosure
to the public. However, if the
information collected on the FR 1374
does not meet these standards for
confidentiality (for example if the
information collected is already public),
it would not be granted confidential
treatment.
Current Actions: On October 3, 2016,
the Federal Reserve published a notice
in the Federal Register (81 FR 68018)
requesting public comment for 60 days
on the extension, without revision, of
the FR 1374. The comment period for
this notice expired on December 2,
2016. The Federal Reserve did not
receive any comments.
2. Report title: Domestic Finance
Company Report of Consolidated Assets
and Liabilities.
Agency form number: FR 2248.
OMB control number: 7100–0005.
Frequency: Monthly, quarterly, and
semi-annually.
Respondents: Domestic finance
companies and mortgage companies.
Estimated number of respondents:
450.
Estimated average hours per response:
Monthly, 20 minutes; quarterly, 30
minutes; Addendum, 10 minutes.
Estimated annual burden hours: 750
hours.
General Description of Report: The FR
2248 is collected monthly as of the last
calendar day of the month from a
stratified sample of finance companies.
Each monthly report collects balance
sheet data on major categories of
consumer and business credit
receivables and on major short-term
liabilities. For quarter-end months
(March, June, September, and
December), additional asset and liability

balance sheet. A supplemental section
collects data on securitized assets. The
data are used to construct universe
estimates of finance company holdings,
which are published in the monthly
statistical releases Finance Companies
(G.20) and Consumer Credit (G.19), in
the quarterly statistical release Flow of
Funds Accounts of the United States
(Z.1), and in the Federal Reserve
Bulletin (Tables 1.51, 1.52, and 1.55).
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The Board’s Legal
Division has determined that the FR
2248 is authorized by law pursuant to
Section 2A of the Federal Reserve Act,
12 U.S.C. 225a). The obligation to
respond is voluntary. Individual
respondent data are confidential under
section (b)(4) of the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)).

Background and Brief Description
The environmental health (EH)
workforce is an essential component of
the public health workforce. According
to recent health department surveys, EH
professionals are employed at
approximately 85% of local health
departments, 81% of state health
departments, and 30% of tribal health
departments. Describing and
characterizing the EH workforce is
essential to identifying gaps in staffing,
training, and ultimately ensuring EH
professionals are prepared to meet
future challenges. Because EH
professionals play a crucial role in
decreasing illness in our communities
and protecting people from traditional
and emerging environmental factors that
may adversely affect human health, the
workforce challenges facing this critical
component of the public health system
are a concern for public and community
health. CDC’s goal is to create a strong,
sustained, and prepared EH workforce
to meet today’s challenges and improve
the health and safety of all. In order to
meet this goal, it is necessary to first
