SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: Part 150, Position Limits, (OMB Control No. 3038–0013). This is a request for extension of a currently approved information collection. Abstract: Commodity Exchange Act (‘‘CEA’’) section 4a directs the Commission to establish limits on speculative positions, as the Commission determines to be necessary, to prevent the harms caused by excessive speculation. This Position Limits collection of information (OMB Control No. 3038–0013) includes collections of information required under both the Final Rule and the Aggregation Rule (as each Rule is defined below). In 2021, the Commission issued a final rule on position limits that implemented CEA section 4a and established the Commission’s new position limits regime found in part 150 of the Commission’s Regulations (‘‘Final Rule’’).2 The Final Rule, among other things, included: new and amended Federal spot-month limits for the 25 core referenced futures contracts; (2) amended Federal non-spot limits for the nine legacy agricultural contracts subject to existing Federal position limits; (3) amended rules governing exchange-set limit levels and grants of exemptions therefrom; (4) an amended process for requesting certain spread exemptions and non-enumerated bona fide hedge recognitions for purposes of Federal position limits directly from the Commission; (5) a new streamlined process for recognizing non-enumerated bona fide hedge positions from Federal limit requirements; and (6) amendments to part 19 of the Commission’s Regulations and related provisions that eliminated certain reporting obligations 2 See ‘‘Position Limits for Derivatives,’’ 86 FR 3236 (Jan. 24, 2021).

Separately, in 2016 the Commission issued a final rule amending Commission Regulation 150.4, which sets forth requirements regarding the aggregation of positions subject to federal position limits (the ‘‘Aggregation Rule’’).3 Among other things, Regulation 150.4 includes standards for the aggregation of accounts and procedures for seeking an exemption from position aggregation requirements under the Commission’s federal position limits. 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.4 On January 19, 2023, 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, 88 FR 3395 (‘‘60-Day Notice’’). The Commission did not receive any relevant comments on the 60-Day Notice. Burden Statement: The Commission anticipates that there will continue to be approximately 776 respondents and the hourly burden will remain the same as provided in the 60-Day Notice. The respondent burden for this collection is estimated to be as follows: Estimated number of respondents: 776. Estimated average burden hours per respondent: 15.14 hours. Estimated total annual burden hours for all respondents: 11,748 hours. Frequency of Collection: As needed. There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection. (Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) Dated: March 22, 2023.

The position aggregation requirements set forth in Regulation 150.4 are the subject of No-Action Letter 22–09 and have been the subject of similar no-action letters since the rule’s effective date. As such, as of the date of this notice, market participants do not submit the reports set forth in Regulation 150.4. Accordingly, all collections of information and related burden estimates under Regulation 150.4 are hypothetical. 4 44 U.S.C. 3512, 5 CFR 1320.5(b)(2)(i) and 1320.8 (b)(3)(vi).

The coastal storm hazard surveys will be distributed to stakeholders and members of the general public in Houston, Texas, Mobile, Alabama, and Savannah, Georgia. The stakeholder survey instrument aims to identify the perceptions and attitudes of local stakeholders in these at-risk areas toward coastal storm hazards, mitigation of those hazards, and the information dissemination to the public regarding those hazards. Three community survey instruments aim to identify the perceptions and use of information by the general public regarding coastal hazards, specifically hurricane and flood events, before, during, and after the Atlantic hurricane season.
