Short Statement:
The total hourly burden estimate has increased by 150 hours, from 119 hours to 269 hours. This increase is due to a revised analysis of the number of Independent Director Application Forms submitted to the Banks annually, which was increased from 25 forms to 100. The increased estimate reflects the fact that, while the Banks nominate a total of approximately 25 individuals for independent directorship seats annually, they typically receive forms from several potential nominees for each open independent directorship. The estimated number of Independent Director Application Forms reflected under Item #14 remains at 25, because the Banks only forward to FHFA for review the forms for those individuals that they actually nominate for an independent directorship seat.
