    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a 
request for extension of the previously approved collection of 
information discussed below.
     Rule 19d-3 (17 CFR 240.19d-3)--Applications for Review of 
Final Disciplinary Sanctions, Denials of Membership, Participation or 
Association, or Prohibitions or Limitations of Access to Services 
Imposed by Self-Regulatory Organizations.
    Rule 19d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 U.S.C. 78a 
et seq.) prescribes the form and content of applications to the 
Commission by persons desiring stays of final disciplinary sanctions 
and summary action of self-regulatory organizations (``SROs'') for 
which the Commission is the appropriate regulatory agency. The 
Commission uses the information provided in the application filed 
pursuant to Rule 19d-3 to review final actions taken by SROs including: 
(1) Disciplinary sanctions; (2) denials of membership, participation or 
association; and (3) prohibitions on or limitations of access to SRO 
services.
    It is estimated that approximately 15 respondents will utilize this 
application procedure annually, with a total burden of 270 hours, for 
all respondents to complete all submissions. This figure is based upon 
past submissions. The staff estimates that the average number of hours 
necessary to comply with the requirements of Rule 19d-3 is 18 hours. 
The average cost per hour, to complete each submission, is 
approximately $101. Therefore, the total cost of compliance for all 
respondents is $27,270. (15 submissions x 18 hours x $101 per hour).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid control number.
    General comments regarding the estimated burden hours should be 
directed to the following persons: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities 
and Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503 or send an email to: [email protected] and (ii) R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief Information 
Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, C/O Shirley Martinson, 
6432 General Green Way, Alexandria VA 22312 or send an email to: [email protected]. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 days of 
this notice.

    Dated: July 2, 2007.
Florence E. Harmon,
Deputy Secretary.
