derivatives clearing organization
(‘‘DCO’’). Broadly speaking, in cleared
swaps transactions customers provide
collateral to futures commission
merchants (‘‘FCMs’’) through whom
they clear their transactions. FCMs, in
turn, may provide customer collateral to
DCOs, through which FCMs clear
transactions for their customers. 17 CFR
part 22 is intended to implement CEA
section 4d(f). Several of the sections of
Part 22 require collections of
information.
Section 22.2(g) requires each FCM
with Cleared Swaps Customer Accounts
to compute daily the amount of Cleared
Swaps Customer Collateral on deposit
in Cleared Swaps Customer Accounts,
the amount of such collateral required
to be on deposit in such accounts and
the amount of the FCM’s residual
financial interest in such accounts. The
purpose of this collection of information
is to help ensure that FCMs’ Cleared
Swaps Customer Accounts are in
compliance at all times with statutory
and regulatory requirements for such
accounts.
Section 22.5(a) requires an FCM or
DCO to obtain, from each depository
with which it deposits cleared swaps
customer funds, a letter acknowledging
that such funds belong to the Cleared
Swaps Customers of the FCM, and not
the FCM itself or any other person. The
purpose of this collection of information
is to confirm that the depository
understands its responsibilities with
respect to protection of cleared swaps
customer funds.
Section 22.11 requires each FCM that
intermediates cleared swaps for
customers on or subject to the rules of
a DCO, whether directly as a clearing
member or indirectly through a
Collecting FCM, to provide the DCO
with information sufficient to identify
each customer of the FCM whose swaps
are cleared by the FCM. Section 22.11
also requires the FCM, at least once
daily, to provide the DCO with
information sufficient to identify each
customer’s portfolio of rights and
obligations arising out of cleared swaps
intermediated by the FCM. The purpose
of this collection of information is to
facilitate risk management by DCOs in
the event of default by the FCM, to
enable DCOs to perform their duty,
pursuant to section 22.15, to treat the
collateral attributed to each customer of
the FCM on an individual basis.
Section 22.12 requires that each DCO
and FCM, on a daily basis, calculate,
based on information received pursuant
to section 22.11 and on information
generated and used in the ordinary
course of business by the DCO or FCM,
and record certain information about the
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001
amount of collateral required for each
Cleared Swaps Customer and the sum of
these amounts. As with section 22.11,
the purpose of this collection of
information is to facilitate risk
management by DCOs and in the event
of default by the FCM, to enable DCOs
to perform their duty, pursuant to
section 22.15, to treat the collateral
attributed to each customer of the FCM
on an individual basis.
Section 22.16 requires that each FCM
who has Cleared Swaps Customers
disclose to each of such customers the
governing provisions, as established by
DCO rules or customer agreements
between collecting and depositing
FCMs, relating to use of customer
collateral, transfer, neutralization of the
risks, or liquidation of cleared swaps in
the event of a default by a Depositing
FCM relating to a Cleared Swaps
Customer Account. The purpose of this
collection of information is to ensure
that Cleared Swaps Customers are
informed of the procedures to which
accounts containing their swaps
collateral may be subject in the event of
a default by their FCM.
Section 22.17 requires that each FCM
produce a written notice of the reasons
and the details concerning withdrawals
from a Cleared Swaps Customers
Account not for the benefit of Cleared
Swap Customers if such withdrawal
will exceed 25% of the FCMs residual
interest in such account.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. On July 17, 2020, the
Commission published in the Federal
Register notice of the proposed
extension of this information collection
and provided 60 days for public
comment on the proposed extension, 85
FR 43547 (‘‘60-Day Notice’’) The
Commission did not receive any
comments on the 60-Day Notice.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Air Force
Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement for
the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent
Deployment and Minuteman III
Decommissioning and Disposal
Department of the Air Force,
Department of Defense.
ACTION: Notice of intent.
AGENCY:
The United States Air Force
(Air Force) is issuing this Notice of
Intent (NOI) to advise the public of its
intent to prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) to evaluate
potential impacts on the human and
natural environments of deploying the
Ground Based Strategic Deterrent
(GBSD) intercontinental ballistic missile
(ICBM) system and decommissioning
and disposing of the Minuteman III
ICBM system. The Air Force invites
public participation in the scoping
process to determine the scope and
significant issues to be analyzed in
depth in the EIS and eliminate issues
which are not significant.
DATES: A public scoping period of 45days will take place starting from the
date of this NOI publication in the
Federal Register. Comments will be
accepted at any time during the
environmental impact analysis process;
however, to ensure the Air Force has
sufficient time to consider public
scoping comments during preparation of
the Draft EIS, please submit comments
within the 45-days scoping period.
Major milestone dates for the GBSD EIS
are as follows:

• Draft EIS and Notice of Availability
(NOA) Publication, Spring 2022
• Draft EIS Public Comment Period and
Hearing, Spring 2022
• Final EIS and NOA Publication,
Spring 2023
• Final ROD signature, Spring 2023
Given the complexity and the scope of
this proposal, the Air Force anticipates
the environmental analysis to extend
past two years for completion and has
received senior agency official approval.
ADDRESSES: For GBSD deployment EIS
inquiries or requests for printed or
digital copies of the scoping materials,
please contact Capt Christina Camp,
phone: (318) 456–6519, or request
materials by email:
AFGSC.GBSD.ImpactStudy@us.af.mil.
The public and interested parties can
submit their comments through the
project website at www.gbsdeis.com; or
mail comments to AFCEC/CZN, Attn:
GBSD Project EIS, 2261 Hughes Avenue,
Suite 155, JBSA Lackland TX 78236–
9853; FedEx and UPS deliveries to
AFCEC/CZN, Attn: GBSD Project EIS;
3515 S General McMullen, San Antonio,
TX 78226–9853.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
purpose of the proposed action is to
replace all ground based Minuteman III
weapons systems within the continental
United States with the GBSD system.
The proposed action is needed to meet
national security requirements and to
comply with the John S. McCain
National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2019 (Pub. L. 115–232
§ 1663, 132 Stat. 2153), which directs
the Air Force to develop and implement
a strategy ‘‘to accelerate the
development, procurement, and fielding
of the ground-based strategic deterrent
program.’’ The scope of the deployment
activities would include replacing all
ground based Minuteman III ICBMs in
the United States, including motors,
interstages, and missile guidance sets,
with the GBSD weapon system, a
technologically advanced ICBM system.
All launch facilities, communication
systems, infrastructure, and
technologies would be modernized and
replaced as necessary to support the
GBSD system.
The Secretary of the Air Force
announced that the GBSD deployment
will take place at three sequenced
Operational Locations 1–3 (‘‘Ops 1–3’’),
with the scope of each Ops location
occurring both on-base and in the
associated missile fields. The Ops
locations are the alternatives being
consider in the EIS. Each location is the
preferred alternative for its respective
sequenced order, and includes Francis
E. Warren Air Force Base (AFB) WY

(Ops-1); Malmstrom AFB, MT (Ops-2);
and Minot AFB, ND (Ops-3). The
additional maintenance, training,
storage, testing, support,
decommissioning, and disposal actions
would occur at Hill AFB, UT; the Utah
Test and Training Range (UTTR), UT;
Camp Guernsey, WY; and Camp Navajo,
AZ.
The EIS may consider alternatives
that include deploying the GBSD system
in phases. The Proposed Action would
not include generating or disposing of
nuclear material, and the number of
ground based nuclear missiles would
remain unchanged. Deployment of the
GBSD system would begin in the mid2020s, extending the capabilities of the
ground-based leg of the U.S. nuclear
triad through at least 2075.
The EIS will analyze facility
construction, modification, and
operations at and around Francis E.
Warren AFB and Camp Guernsey,
Malmstrom AFB, Minot AFB, Hill AFB
and UTTR, and Camp Navajo. During
the transition from Minuteman III to
GBSD, the two weapon systems would
be partially operated and maintained
concurrently for several years; therefore,
the EIS also will analyze the
overlapping actions and resulting
impacts of conducting aspects of the
programs in parallel. The EIS will also
analyze the No Action Alternative
which will also be fully considered. It
serves as the baseline against which to
compare the Proposed Action. Under
the No Action Alternative, the Air Force
would continue to maintain and operate
the Minuteman III weapon system in its
current configuration and the GBSD
system would not be deployed.
Expected environmental impacts are
assumed to result from ground
disturbing activities associated with
construction of the GBSD system. It is
anticipated that these environmental
impacts, will be mitigated to the extent
practical or avoided where possible.
Further, the Air Force will pursue all
required Federal and State permits,
licenses, and other authorizations
during the course of this EIS process,
including but not limited to
consultations under the National
Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (54
U.S.C. 300101 et seq.) and the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), as well as permits
under the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq).
The scoping process allows and
invites early and meaningful
participation by the public and is used
to define the full range of issues and
concerns to be evaluated in the EIS. As
such, the Air Force is soliciting scoping
comments and/or identification of
