SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-34588]

 

EDGAR Phase-In to Continue Later This Year

August 24, 1994.

    The Office of Information Technology (``OIT'') today announced that 
the phase-in date for mandated filing on the Electronic Data Gathering, 
Analysis, and Retrieval (``EDGAR'') system for registrants in phase-in 
Groups CF-05 and IM-03 will be after November 1, 1994. This will afford 
OIT staff adequate time to complete its analysis of the data respecting 
EDGAR's performance that was collected during the Congressionally-
mandated six-month test period and to report to the Commission. It is 
anticipated that prior to November 1, 1994, the Commission will 
announce, approximately 30 days before effectiveness, a schedule 
setting out the precise phase-in dates for Groups CF-05 and IM-03 and 
all subsequent phase-in groups. Filers in Groups CF-05 and IM-03 who 
are prepared to file electronically prior to mandated phase-in may 
volunteer to do so by requesting that their phase-in group be changed 
to CF-04 or IM-02, as appropriate. At the time a phase-in group change 
is granted, filers will become subject to mandated electronic filing 
rules and all subsequent filings will be required to be filed in 
electronic format. Once a registrant is phased in, third parties filing 
documents such as Schedules 13D or proxy materials with respect to that 
registrant also are required to submit such filings electronically. 
Corporation Finance registrants requesting phase-in changes should 
contact Sylvia Reis or Serena Swegle ((202) 942-2940), Mail Stop 3-8, 
Division of Corporation Finance, 450 Fifth Street NW., Washington DC 
20549. Investment Management registrants should contact Anthony A. 
Vertuno ((202) 942-0591) or Ruth Armfield Sanders ((202) 942-0633), 
Mail Stop 10-6, Division of Investment Management, 450 Fifth Street 
NW., Washington DC 20549.

Information Technology at (202) 942-8800.

Deputy Secretary.
