    Notice is hereby given pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1980 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), that the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') has requested approval of proposed 
revisions to the following rules:
    Regulations S-K and S-B provide the itemized disclosure 
requirements used in connection with the integrated disclosure system. 
These regulations have been designated as imposing an administrative 
burden of one hour, because the actual regulatory burdens are 
established by the individual forms that refer to the items in the 
regulations. No change in the burden hours assigned to Regulations S-K 
and S-B will result as a consequence of the revisions.
    Regulations 13D and 13G govern the disclosure of information 
relating to beneficial ownership of securities issued by public 
companies. An estimated annual average of 6,536 respondents file 
documents pursuant to these regulations. If the revisions to Regulation 
13D are adopted as proposed, the estimated burden hours per submission 
will increase from 13.75 hours to 14.75 hours, for a total annual 
burden of 96,406 hours.
    Rule 13e-3 governs the disclosure of information by an issuer that 
is going private. An estimated annual average of 221 Schedules 13E-3 
are filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3. If the proposals are adopted, the 
estimated burden hours per filing will increase from 139.25 hours to 
140.25 hours, for a total annual burden of 30,996 hours.
    Regulation 14A sets out the requirements for disclosure documents 
relating to proxy solicitations. An estimated annual average of 7,980 
filers file proxy materials pursuant to this regulation. If the changes 
are adopted as proposed, the estimated burden hours per filing will 
increase from 85 hours to 86 hours, for a total annual burden of 
686,280 hours.
    Regulation 14D contains the disclosure requirements associated with 
tender offer transactions. An average of 366 documents are filed 
pursuant to this regulation each year. If the proposed changes to this 
regulation are adopted, the estimated burden hours will increase from 
353.25 hours per submission to 354.25 hours per filing, for a total 
annual burden of 129,656 hours.
    Regulation A sets out the disclosure obligations of designated 
issuers who rely on certain exemptions from registration of securities. 
An estimated average of 201 issuers file documents pursuant Regulation 
A. If the revisions to this regulation are adopted, the estimated 
burden hours per filing would increase from 620 hours to 621 hours, for 
a total annual burden of 124,821 hours.
    General comments regarding the estimated burden hours should be 
directed to the Clearance Officer for the Securities and Exchange 
Commission at the address below. Any comments concerning the accuracy 
of the estimated average burden hours for compliance with Commission 
rules and forms should be directed to Richard T. Redfearn, Acting 
Director, Office of Information Technology, Securities and Exchange 
Commission, 450 Fifth Street NW., Washington, DC 20549 and Clearance 
Officer for the Securities and Exchange Commission, Office of 
Management and Budget, (Project Nos. 3235-0071, 3235-0417, 3235-0145, 
3235-0007, 3235-0059, 3235-0102 and 3235-0286), Room 3208, New 
Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.
