procedures and disclosures, adopt and
implement written policies and
procedures reasonably designed to
ensure compliance with their conflicts
of interest and disclosure obligations,
and maintain specified records related

the effective evaluation of these
registrants’ actual compliance with the
CEA and Commission regulations.

sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.8 On May 25, 2022, the
Commission published in the Federal
Register notice of the proposed
extension of this information collection
and provided 60 days for public
comment on the proposed extension, 87
FR 31862 (‘‘60-Day Notice’’). The
Commission did not receive any
relevant comments on the 60-Day
Notice.
Burden Statement: The Commission
is revising its estimate of the burden for
this collection to reflect the current
number of respondents and estimated
burden hours. The respondent burden
for this collection is estimated to be as
follows:
Number of Registrants: 1,065.
Estimated Average Burden Hours per
Registrant: 44.5.
