General Description of Report: The
issuer survey (FR 3063a) collects data
from issuers of governmentadministered, general-use prepaid cards
including card program information,
cards outstanding, card funding, ATM
transactions, purchase transactions, fees
paid by issuers to third parties,
interchange fees, and cardholder fees.
The issuer survey (FR 3063a) is
mandatory.
The government survey (FR 3063b)
collects data from state governments,
the District of Columbia, and U.S.
territories (collectively, state
governments), and municipal
government offices located within the
United States (local government offices)
that administer general-use prepaid card
payment programs.1 Data collected from
1 The issuer and government surveys request
information on all federal, state, or local
government-administered payment programs that
provide a general-use prepaid card (or other debit
card) disbursement option to payment recipients.
The government survey may be distributed to
federal government agencies in addition to state and
local governments, but collections of information
from federal government agencies are not subject to
the Paperwork Reduction Act and, thus, are not
included in this discussion.

government offices include program
information, the number of cards
outstanding, and funding information.
The government survey (FR 3063b) is
voluntary.
The Board uses data from these
surveys to support an annual report to
the Congress on the prevalence of use of
general-use prepaid cards in federal,
state, and local governmentadministered payment programs and on
the interchange and cardholder fees
charged with respect to such use of such
cards.
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The Board’s Legal
Division has determined that both the
issuer survey and the government
survey are authorized by subsection
920(a) of the Electronic Fund Transfer
Act, which was amended by section
1075(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act (15
U.S.C. 1693o–2). This subsection
requires the Board to submit an annual
report to Congress on the prevalence of
the use of general-use prepaid cards in
Federal, State or local governmentadministered payment programs and the
interchange transaction fees and cardholder fees charged with respect to the
use of such general-use prepaid cards
(15 U.S.C. 1693o–2(a)(7)(D)). It also
provides the Board with authority to
require issuers to provide information to
enable the Board to carry out the
provisions of the subsection (15 U.S.C.
1693o–2(a)(3)(B)). The obligation of
issuers to respond to the issuer survey
(FR 3063a) is mandatory. However, the
obligation of state governments and
local government offices to respond to
the government survey (FR 3063b) is
voluntary. All of the information
collected on the government survey and
a limited amount of information
collected on the issuer survey is
publicly available, and thus, is not
accorded confidential treatment.
However, most of the information
collected on the issuer survey is not
publicly available and may be kept
confidential under exemption (b)(4) of
the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA),
which exempts from disclosure ‘‘trade
secrets and commercial or financial
information obtained from a person and
privileged or confidential’’ (5 U.S.C.
552(b)(4)). Such data may be kept
confidential under exemption 4 if the
release of data would cause substantial
harm to the competitive position of the
issuer. For example, certain issuer
survey responses would likely contain
information related to an organization’s
revenue structure and other proprietary
U.S. territories include American Samoa, Guam,
Midway Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto
Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands.

and commercial information and the
release of such information would cause
substantial harm to the competitive
position of the issuer.
Current actions: On June 5, 2017, the
Board published a notice in the Federal
Register (82 FR 25801) requesting
public comment for 60 days on the
proposal to extend, without revision,
the FR 3063a and FR 3063b. The
comment period for this notice expired
on August 4, 2017. The Board did not
receive any comments. The information
collection will be extended as proposed.
