Federal Acquisition Regulation; Information Collection; Submission for OMB Review; U.S.-Flag Air Carriers Statement
Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, the Regulatory Secretariat will be submitting to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request to review and approve a previously approved information collection requirement concerning U.S. Flag Air Carriers Certification. Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of functions of the FAR, and whether it will have practical utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Proposed Information Collection; Comment Request
The Corporation for National and Community Service (the Corporation), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the general public and federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirement on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the Corporation is soliciting comments concerning its Process and Impact Evaluation of the Minnesota Reading Corps project. This project will assess the impact of the Minnesota Reading Corps on tutees' educational and other outcomes. This project will also assess the effect of the Minnesota Reading Corps on AmeriCorps member outcomes. Copies of the information collection request can be obtained by contacting the office listed in the addresses section of this notice.

Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
In accordance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the ``agencies''), may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. On November 23, 2011, the Board, under the auspices of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) and on behalf of the agencies, published a notice in the Federal Register (76 FR 72410) requesting public comment on the extension, with revision, of the Report of Assets and Liabilities of U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks (FFIEC 002) and the Report of Assets and Liabilities of a Non-U.S. Branch that is Managed or Controlled by a U.S. Branch or Agency of a Foreign (Non-U.S.) Bank (FFIEC 002S), which are currently approved information collections. The comment period for this notice expired on January 23, 2012. No comments were received on the proposed revisions. However, the agencies received eight comments on proposed revisions to the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Report) (FFIEC 031 and 041; OMB No. 7100-0036). Inasmuch as the Call Report revisions parallel certain of the proposed revisions to the FFIEC 002, these comments are being taken into consideration for the FFIEC 002 proposal. After consideration of these comments, the FFIEC and the agencies will proceed with the reporting change to Schedule RAL, Assets and Liabilities, proposed for implementation as of June 30, 2012. With respect to the new loan origination activity schedule that had been proposed to be added to the FFIEC 002, the FFIEC and the agencies are continuing to evaluate this proposed schedule in light of the comments received on the comparable change proposed to the Call Report. The FFIEC's and the agencies' decisions regarding this proposed schedule will be the subject of a separate Federal Register notice, and any resulting new reporting requirements will not take effect before the September 30, 2012, report date.
