SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Information-Sharing Initiative: Digital Assets Criteria 
Form.
    OMB Control Number: 1505-0286.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.
    Description: The collection is necessary for Treasury to fulfill 
its responsibilities as the Sector Risk Management Agency for the 
Financial Services Sector under 6 U.S.C. Sec.  665d. To fulfill these 
responsibilities, Treasury must verify that a requesting entity is 
eligible to receive Treasury's non-public cyber threat information 
before granting access. The Intake Form for Digital Asset Firms 
collects the minimum information required to confirm the applicant's 
identity, U.S. legal status, organizational category, digital asset 
function, regulatory status, cybersecurity maturity, ability to protect 
non-public information, and cybersecurity purpose for requesting 
access. Without this information, Treasury would lack a consistent, 
documented basis to determine whether an entity meets Treasury's 
criteria, whether the entity has a legitimate cybersecurity need-to-
know, or whether the entity can comply with Treasury's Traffic Light 
Protocol (TLP) markings and dissemination restrictions. There are no 
changes from the previous approval.
    Form: Intake Form for Digital Assets Firms.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits, Not-for-profit 
Institutions.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 300.
    Frequency of Response: Once.
    Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 100.
    Estimated Time per Response: 3 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 300 hours.
    Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice 
will be summarized and included in the request for Office of Management 
and Budget 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 agency, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency'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 of information on respondents, including 
through the use of technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-up 
costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services 
required to provide information.
    Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.

Juliana L. Pearson,
Treasury PRA Clearance Officer.
