Note: The annual burden estimate for a given collection is calculated in two steps. First, the total number of
  annual responses is calculated as the whole number closest to the product of the annual number of respondents
  and the annual number of responses per respondent. Then, the total number of annual responses is multiplied by
  the time per response and rounded to the nearest hour to obtain the estimated annual burden for that
  collection. This rounding ensures the annual burden hours in the table are consistent with the values recorded
  in the OMB's regulatory tracking system.
This calculation method results in the rounding down to zero hours of very small values such as those shown in
  ICs 16 and 19.

    General Description of Collection: When an insured depository 
institution (IDI) is closed by its primary regulatory authority, the 
FDIC has the responsibility to pay the insured deposits pursuant to 
Section 11(a) and (f) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act), 
12 U.S.C. 1821(a) and (f); and the FDIC's regulations, ``Deposit 
Insurance Coverage,'' 12 CFR part 330, and ``Recordkeeping for Timely 
Deposit Insurance Determination,'' 12 CFR part 370. In the event that 
the requisite information is not available in a failed IDI's records, 
the FDIC will utilize these forms, declarations and affidavits to 
request the necessary information from a depositor. The forms are used 
to facilitate the FDIC's deposit insurance determinations in the event 
of the failure of an insured depository institution. It includes 19 
information collection (IC) line items, including 15 that apply to both 
depositors and their agents (e.g., deposit brokers) and four intended 
for use by agents alone.
    There is no change in the substance or methodology of this 
information collection. The change in burden is due to the decline in 
estimated burden hours from 590 to 21 hours. The decline in estimated 
hours is driven by the decline in deposit insurance determinations and 
associated valid form submissions in the 2018-2022 period.
    2. Title: Margin and Capital Requirements for Swap Entities 
[Interagency] IFR.
    OMB Number: 3064-0204.
    Forms: None.
    Affected Public: Any FDIC-insured state-chartered bank that is not 
a member of the Federal Reserve System or FDIC-insured state-chartered 
savings association that is registered as a swap dealer, major swap 
participant, security based swap dealer, or major security based swap 
participant.

Note: The annual burden estimate for a given collection is calculated in two steps. First, the total number of
  annual responses is calculated as the whole number closest to the product of the annual number of respondents
  and the annual number of responses per respondent. Then, the total number of annual responses is multiplied by
  the time per response and rounded to the nearest hour to obtain the estimated annual burden for that
  collection. This rounding ensures the annual burden hours in the table are consistent with the values recorded
  in the OMB's regulatory tracking system.

    General Description of Collection: The regulations at part 349 
subpart A impose reporting and recordkeeping requirements, as defined 
by the PRA, on any FDIC-insured state-chartered bank that is not a 
member of the Federal Reserve System or FDIC-insured state-chartered 
savings association that is registered as a swap entity (covered swap 
entity). As such, the FDIC must periodically obtain approval from the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for these collections of 
information (ICs) with respect to covered swap entities. The OMB 
approves these ICs through OMB No. 3064-0204, and last approved the ICR 
on September 8, 2020 (2020 ICR). OMB No. 3064-0204 is set to expire on 
September 30, 2023. The 2020 ICR contained eleven ICs comprising 1,261 
estimated annual responses for an estimated annual burden of 1,740 
hours.
    There is no change in the substance or methodology of this 
information collection. The change in burden is due to the decline in 
estimated burden hours from 1.760 to 505 hours. The decline in 
estimated hours is driven primarily from a reduction in the number of 
ICs relative to the 2020 ICR. The ICs from the 2020 ICR that were not 
included in this renewal had an estimated 1,253 annual responses and an 
estimated 1,295 annual burden hours.

Request for Comment

    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information 
is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions, 
including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection, 
including the validity of the

[[Page 65681]]

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 information on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology. All comments will become a matter of 
public record.
