Notice and request for comment. AGENCY: ACTION: The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requests that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) extend for three years the current Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) clearance for information collection requirements contained in the Antitrust Improvements Act Rules (HSR Rules) and corresponding Notification and Report Form for Certain Mergers and Acquisitions (Notification and Report Form). That clearance expires on January 31, 2023. DATES: Comments must be received by February 21, 2023. ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/ PRAMain. Find this particular information collection by selecting ‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open for Public Comments’’ or by using the search function. The reginfo.gov web link is a United States Government website produced by OMB and the General Services Administration (GSA). Under PRA requirements, OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) reviews Federal information collections. SUMMARY: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert L. Jones, Assistant Director, Premerger Notification Office, Bureau of Competition, Federal Trade Commission, Room CC–5301, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20580, or by telephone to (202) 326– 2740. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: HSR Rules and Notification and Report Form, 16 CFR parts 801–803. OMB Control Number: 3084–0005. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Likely Respondents: Merging Parties. Estimated Annual Hours Burden: 262,579 hours [derived from 7,096 non- PO 00000 Frm 00038 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 3413 index filings × 37 hours/each) + (12 index filings × two hours/each) + (one withdrawn transaction later restarted × three hours)]. Estimated Annual Cost Burden: $120,786,340, which is derived from $460/hour × 262,579 hours. Abstract: Section 7A of the Clayton Act (‘‘Act’’), 15 U.S.C. 18a, as amended by the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, Public Law 94–435, 90 Stat. 1390, requires all persons contemplating certain mergers or acquisitions to file notification with the Commission and the Assistant Attorney General and to wait a designated period of time before consummating such transactions. Congress empowered the Commission, with the concurrence of the Assistant Attorney General, to require ‘‘that the notification . . . be in such form and contain such documentary material and information . . . as is necessary and appropriate’’ to enable the agencies ‘‘to determine whether such acquisitions may, if consummated, violate the antitrust laws.’’ 15 U.S.C. 18a(d). Congress similarly granted rulemaking authority to, among other things, ‘‘prescribe such other rules as may be necessary and appropriate to carry out the purposes of this section.’’ Id. Pursuant to that section, the Commission, with the concurrence of the Assistant Attorney General, developed the HSR Rules and the corresponding Notification and Report Form. On August 26, 2022, the Commission sought comment on the reporting requirements associated with the HSR Rules and corresponding Notification and Report Form. 87 FR 52569. No relevant comments were received. Pursuant to the OMB regulations, 5 CFR part 1320, that implement the PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., the FTC is providing this second opportunity for public comment while seeking OMB approval to renew the pre-existing clearance for those information collection requirements. Burden Statement The following burden estimates are primarily based on FTC data concerning the number of HSR filings and FTC staff’s informal consultations with leading HSR counsel for outside parties. Estimated Total Annual Hours In fiscal year 2022, the FTC received 6,518 non-index filings. Based on an average annual increase in filings of 4.3% in the pre-COVID fiscal years E:\FR\FM\19JAN1.SGM 19JAN1
