SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.),
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.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of title 44 generally requires Federal agencies
to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information, including each proposed extension
of an existing collection of information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, the
OCC is publishing notice of the renewal of this collection.
Title: Interagency Guidance on Asset Securitization Activities.
OMB Control No.: 1557-0217.
Type of Review: Regular.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
Description: In 1999, the OCC issued the Interagency Guidance on
Asset Securitization Activities (guidance) in response to a
determination that some institutions involved in asset securitization
activities had significant weaknesses in their asset securitization
practices. The information collection contained in the guidance applies
to financial institutions engaged in asset securitization activities
and provides that any institution engaged in these activities should
maintain a written asset securitization policy, document the fair value
of retained interests, and maintain a management information system to
monitor asset securitization activities. Financial institution
management uses the information collected to ensure the safe and sound
operation of the institution's asset securitization activities. The OCC
uses the information to evaluate the quality of an institution's risk
management practices.
Estimated Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 35.
Estimated Total Annual Responses: 5,880.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 1,828 hours.
Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized
and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will become
a matter of public record. Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of the OCC, including whether the
information has practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the OCC's estimate of the burden of the
collection of information;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected;
(d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology; and
(e) Estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.

Assistant Director, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
