Requests for this notice in an alternative format should be made to the Office of Communications and Legislative Affairs at (202) 663–4191 (voice) or (202) 663– 4494 (TTY). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforces Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and Title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA), which collectively prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or genetic information. Section 709(c) of Title VII, section 107(a) of the ADA, and section 207(a) of GINA authorize the EEOC to issue recordkeeping and reporting regulations that are deemed reasonable, necessary or appropriate. EEOC has promulgated recordkeeping regulations under those authorities that are contained in 29 CFR part 1602 et seq. Those regulations do not require the creation of any particular records but generally require employers to preserve any personnel and employment records they make or keep for a period of one year. The EEOC seeks extension of the recordkeeping requirement in these regulations without change. Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, and OMB regulation 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), the Commission solicits public comment to enable it to: (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the Commission’s functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) Evaluate the accuracy of the Commission’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:55 Feb 16, 2018 Jkt 244001 Overview of Current Information Collection Collection Title: Recordkeeping under Title VII, the ADA, and GINA. OMB Number: 3046–0040. Description of Affected Public: Employers with 15 or more employees are subject to Title VII, the ADA, and GINA. Number of Respondents: 961,709. Number of Reports Submitted: 0. Estimated Burden Hours: 37,264 hours. Cost to Respondents: $0. Federal Cost: None. Number of Forms: None. Abstract: Section 709(c) of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 2000e–8(c), section 1007(a) of the ADA, 42 U.S.C. 12117(a), and section 207(a) of GINA, 42 U.S.C. 2000ff–6(a), require the Commission to establish regulations pursuant to which employers subject to those Acts shall make and preserve certain records to assist the EEOC in assuring compliance with the Acts’ nondiscrimination in employment requirements. This is a recordkeeping requirement. Any of the records maintained which are subsequently disclosed to the EEOC during an investigation are protected from public disclosure by the confidentiality provisions of section 706(b) and 709(e) of Title VII which are also incorporated by reference into the ADA at section 107(a) and GINA at section 207(a). Burden Statement: The estimated number of respondents subject to this recordkeeping requirement is 961,709 employers. An employer subject to the recordkeeping requirement in 29 CFR part 1602 must retain all personnel or employment records made or kept by that employer for one year, and must retain any records relevant to charges of discrimination filed under Title VII, the ADA, or GINA until final disposition of those matters, which may be longer than one year. This recordkeeping requirement does not require reports or the creation of new documents, but merely requires retention of documents that an employer has already made or kept in the normal course of its business operations. Thus, existing employers bear no burden under this analysis, because their systems for retaining personnel and employment records are already in place. Newly formed firms may incur a small burden when setting up their data collection and retention systems to ensure compliance with EEOC’s recordkeeping requirements. We assume some effort and time must be expended by employers to familiarize themselves with the Title VII, ADA, and PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 7179 GINA recordkeeping requirements and explain those requirements to the appropriate staff. We estimate that 30 minutes would be needed for this onetime familiarization process. Using 2015 data from the Small Business Administration, we estimate that there are 74,528 firms that would incur this start-up burden.1 Assuming a 30-minute burden per firm, the total annual hour burden is 37,264 hours (.5 hour × 74,528 = 37,264). For the Commission. Dated: February 13, 2018. Victoria A. Lipnic, Acting Chair.

Overview of the Information Collection Request 1. Title: Recordkeeping, Disclosure and Reporting Requirements in Connection with Regulation Z. OMB Number: 3064–0082. Form Number: None. Affected Public: State nonmember banks and state savings associations. General Description of Collection: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Regulation Z—12 CFR 1026 implements the Truth in Lending Act (15 U.S.C. 1601, et seq.) and certain provisions of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (12 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.). This regulation prescribes uniform methods for computing the cost of credit, the disclosure of credit terms and costs, the resolution of errors and imposes various other recordkeeping, reporting and disclosure requirements. The FDIC has enforcement authority on the requirements of the CFPB’s Regulation over the financial institutions it supervises. This information collection captures the recordkeeping, reporting and disclosure burdens of Regulation Z on FDICsupervised institutions. The information collection is being revised to account for revisions and changes made to Regulation Z by the CFPB since this information collection was last submitted by the FDIC to OMB for clearance. To arrive at the estimated annual burden the FDIC assessed the number of potential respondents to the information collection by identifying the number of FDIC-supervised institutions who reported activity that would be within the scope of the information collection requirements according to data from the most recent CALL Report. Additionally, the FDIC estimated the frequency of responses to the recordkeeping, reporting, or disclosure requirements by assessing the dollar volume of activity that would be within the scope of the information collection. In some instances the FDIC used information provided by other sources to estimate the magnitude and scope of activity attributable to FDIC-supervised institutions when more immediate information sources did not exist. Burden Estimate: The total estimated annual burden is 2,395,630 hours (36 hours estimated implementation burden, plus 2,395,594 hours estimated ongoing burden). The burden estimate is detailed on the following tables: IMPLEMENTATION (ONE-TIME) BURDEN ESTIMATE Estimated average number of credit accounts Estimated number of respondents 1 Obligation to respond/type of burden Frequency of response Number of responses Estimated time per response (minutes) Total estimated annual burden (hours) Open-End Credit Products • Not Home-Secured Open-End Credit Plans Æ Credit and Charge Card Provisions Timely Settlement of Estate Debts (1026.11(c)(1)) Written Policies and Procedures.

Overview of the Information Collection Request

    1. Title: Recordkeeping, Disclosure and Reporting Requirements in 
Connection with Regulation Z.
    OMB Number: 3064-0082.
    Form Number: None.
    Affected Public: State nonmember banks and state savings 
associations.
    General Description of Collection: Consumer Financial Protection 
Bureau (CFPB) Regulation Z--12 CFR 1026 implements the Truth in Lending 
Act (15 U.S.C. 1601, et seq.) and certain provisions of the Real Estate 
Settlement Procedures Act (12 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.). This regulation 
prescribes uniform methods for computing the cost of credit, the 
disclosure of credit terms and costs, the resolution of errors and 
imposes various other recordkeeping, reporting and disclosure 
requirements. The FDIC has enforcement authority on the requirements of 
the CFPB's Regulation over the financial institutions it supervises. 
This information collection captures the recordkeeping, reporting and 
disclosure burdens of Regulation Z on FDIC-supervised institutions. The 
information collection is being revised to account for revisions and 
changes made to Regulation Z by the CFPB since this information 
collection was last submitted by the FDIC to OMB for clearance.
    To arrive at the estimated annual burden the FDIC assessed the 
number of potential respondents to the information collection by 
identifying the number of FDIC-supervised institutions who reported 
activity that would be within the scope of the information collection 
requirements according to data from the most recent CALL Report. 
Additionally, the FDIC estimated the frequency of responses to the 
recordkeeping, reporting, or disclosure requirements by assessing the 
dollar volume of activity that would be within the scope of the 
information collection. In some instances the FDIC used information 
provided by other sources to estimate the magnitude and scope of 
activity attributable to FDIC-supervised institutions when more 
immediate information sources did not exist.
    Burden Estimate: The total estimated annual burden is 2,395,630 
hours (36 hours estimated implementation burden, plus 2,395,594 hours 
estimated ongoing burden). The burden estimate is detailed on the 
following tables:
