Request for Comment on Information Collection Proposal
The Board invites public comment on the following information
collections, which are being reviewed under authority delegated by the
OMB under the PRA. Comments are invited on the following:
a. Whether the proposed collections of information are necessary
for the proper performance of the Board's functions, including whether
the information has practical utility;
b. The accuracy of the Board's estimate of the burden of the
proposed information collections, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
c. Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected;
d. Ways to minimize the burden of information collection on
respondents, including through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information technology; and

At the end of the comment period, the comments and recommendations
