Short Statement:
The current annual reporting burden for the surveys is estimated to be 112,875 hours and would decrease to 90,555 hours. The proposed revisions to the FR 3064a would result in a decrease of 8 data items (associated with the deletion of 2 break outs of data items in each of the 4 sections). Therefore, the Federal Reserve estimates the average hours per response for the 558 issuers would decrease from 200 hours to 160 hours. The estimated burden, however, would likely be lower for the FR 3064a if holding companies consolidate the responses of their individual issuer subsidiaries. The FR 3064b estimated burden is unchanged.
