inconvenience to a customer. The information collections require 
financial institutions to: (1) Develop notices to customers; and (2) in 
certain circumstances, determine which customers should receive the 
notices and send the notices to customers.

collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All 
comments will become a matter of public record.
