    Title: NCUA Vendor Registration Form.
    Form: NCUA Form 1772.
    Abstract: Section 342 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and 
Consumer Protection Act (Act) (Pub. L. 111-203) calls for agencies to 
promote the inclusion of minority and women-owned firms in their 
business activities. The Act also requires agencies to annually report 
to Congress the total amounts paid to minority and women-owned 
businesses. In order for NCUA to

[[Page 10842]]

comply with this Congressional mandate, NCUA 1772 is used to collect 
certain information from its current and potential vendors, so that it 
can identify businesses that meet the criteria. The vendor information 
is to be submitted to the agency on a one-time basis and will be used 
to assign an ownership status to the vendor (i.e., minority-owned 
business, woman-owned business) per the requirements of the Act. Once 
an ownership status is assigned to each vendor, NCUA will be able to 
calculate the total amounts of contracting dollars paid to minority-
owned and women-owned businesses.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Affected Public: Private Sector: Businesses or other for-profits.
    Estimated No. of Respondents: 200.
    Estimated Annual Frequency: 1.
    Estimated Annual Number of Responses: 200.
    Estimated Burden Hours per Response: 10 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 33.
    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. The public is invited to submit comments concerning: (a) 
Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper 
execution of the function of the agency, including whether the 
information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information, 
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
the information on the respondents, including the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
