Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 
20549-2736

    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 (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of the 
previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 17g-
7 (17 CFR 240.17g-7) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 
U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (``Exchange Act'').
    Rule 17g-7 contains disclosure requirements for Nationally 
Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (``NRSROs'') including 
certain information to be published when taking a rating action with 
respect to a credit rating. There are 9 credit rating agencies 
registered as NRSROs with the Commission. The Commission estimates that 
the total burden for respondents to comply with Rule 17g-7 is 695,253 
based on the number of NRSROs and the number of credit rating actions.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information 
unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. No person 
shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection 
of information subject to the PRA that does not display a valid OMB 
control number.
