The staff estimates that the average cost per respondent is $65.18 per year, calculated as the costs of copying ($13.97) plus storage ($51.21), resulting in a total cost of compliance for the respondents of $1,368.78 An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

The Commission plans to submit this existing collection of information to the Office of Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for extension and approval. Under Rule 17f–1(b) under the Exchange Act, approximately 10,000 entities in the securities industry are registered in the Lost and Stolen Securities Program (‘‘Program’’). Registration fulfills a statutory requirement that entities report and inquire about missing, lost, counterfeit, or stolen securities. Registration also allows entities in the securities industry to gain access to a confidential database that stores information for the Program. The Commission staff estimates that 10 new entities will register in the Program each year. The staff estimates that the average number of hours necessary to comply with Rule 17f–1(b) is one-half hour. Accordingly, the staff estimates that total annual burden for all participants is 5 hours (10 × one-half hour). The Commission staff estimates that compliance staff work at subject entities results in an internal cost of compliance, at an estimated hourly wage of $283, of $141.50 per year per entity (.5 hours × $283 per hour = $141.50 per year). Therefore, the aggregate annual internal cost of compliance is approximately $1,415 ($141.50 × 10= $1,415).

Extension:
    Rule 17f-1(b), SEC File No. 270-028, OMB Control No. 3235-0032

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the existing 
collection of information provided for in Rule 17f-1(b) (17 CFR 
240.17f-1(b)), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a 
et seq.). The Commission plans to submit this existing collection of 
information to the Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') for 
extension and approval.
    Under Rule 17f-1(b) under the Exchange Act, approximately 10,000 
entities in the securities industry are registered in the Lost and 
Stolen Securities Program (``Program''). Registration fulfills a 
statutory requirement that entities report and inquire about missing, 
lost, counterfeit, or stolen securities. Registration also allows 
entities in the securities industry to gain access to a confidential 
database that stores information for the Program.
    The Commission staff estimates that 10 new entities will register 
in the Program each year. The staff estimates that the average number 
of hours necessary to comply with Rule 17f-1(b) is one-half hour. 
Accordingly, the staff estimates that total annual burden for all 
participants is 5 hours (10 x one-half hour). The Commission staff 
estimates that compliance staff work at subject entities results in an 
internal cost of compliance, at an estimated hourly wage of $283, of 
$141.50 per year per entity (.5 hours x $283 per hour = $141.50 per 
year). Therefore, the aggregate annual internal cost of compliance is 
approximately $1,415 ($141.50 x 10= $1,415).
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information 
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's 
estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. 
Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted in 
writing within 60 days of this publication.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it 
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
