SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal 
agencies must obtain approval from the OMB for each collection of 
information that they conduct or sponsor. ``Collection of information'' 
is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to include agency 
requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports, 
keep records, or provide information to a third party. The OCC asks 
that OMB extend its approval of the collection of information in this 
document.
    Title: Survey of Minority Owned Institutions.
    OMB Control No.: 1557-0236.
    Type of Review: Regular review.
    Description: The OCC is committed to assessing its efforts to 
provide supervisory support, technical assistance, education, and other 
outreach to the minority-owned institutions under its supervision, in 
accordance with meeting the goals prescribed under section 308 of the 
Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 
1989.\1\ To perform this assessment, it is necessary to obtain feedback 
from the individual institutions on the effectiveness of the OCC's 
current efforts in these areas and suggestions on how the OCC might 
enhance or augment its supervision and technical assistance going 
forward. The OCC uses the information gathered to assess the needs of 
minority-owned institutions and its efforts to meet those needs. The 
OCC also uses the information to focus and enhance its supervisory, 
technical assistance, education, and other outreach activities with 
respect to minority-owned institutions.
