SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. What information is EPA particularly
interested in?
Pursuant to PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A)
(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA
specifically solicits comments and
information to enable it to:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility.
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
Agency’s estimates of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.

II. What information collection activity
or ICR does this action apply to?
Title: Methylene Chloride; Regulation
under TSCA § 6(a).
EPA ICR No.: 2556.04.
OMB Control No.: 2070–0204.
ICR Status: This ICR is currently
approved through May 31, 2026. Under
the PRA, an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information,
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The OMB control
numbers for EPA’s regulations in title 40
of the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), after appearing in the Federal
Register when approved, are displayed
either by publication in the Federal
Register or by other appropriate means,
VerDate Sep<11>2014

such as on the related collection
instrument or form, if applicable. The
display of OMB control numbers for
certain EPA regulations is consolidated
in 40 CFR part 9.
Abstract: The Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) is
consolidating the rule-related ICR titled,
‘‘Methylene Chloride; Regulation under
TSCA Section 6(a) (Final Rule; RIN
2070–AK70)(EPA ICR No. 2735.02;
OMB Control No. 2070–0229)’’ into
‘‘Methylene Chloride; Regulation of
Paint and Coating Removal for
Consumer Use under TSCA Section 6(a)
(EPA ICR No. 2556.03; OMB Control No.
2070–0204).’’ This ICR describes the
prohibition of the manufacture, process,
and distribution of methylene chloride
for all consumer use and most industrial
and commercial uses and delay
prohibition for two conditions: a
requirement for a workplace chemical
protection program (WCPP) and related
workplace methylene chloride
monitoring under 40 CFR 751. This ICR
covers the information collection
activities for downstream notification
requirements through Safety Data
Sheets; WCPP-related information such
as recordkeeping and notification
requirements associated with exposure
monitoring; and recordkeeping for
interim requirements for use of
methylene chloride for refinishing wood
pieces of artistic, cultural, or historic
value and downstream notification for
consumer use of paints and coatings.
The ICR, which is available in the
docket along with other related
materials, provides a detailed
explanation of the collection activities
and the burden estimate that is only
briefly summarized here:
Form number(s): None.
Respondents/affected entities: Entities
potentially affected by this ICR include
Chemical and Allied Products Merchant
Wholesaler firms and Basic Chemical
Manufacturing firms North American
Industrial Classification System
(NAICS) codes identified in question 12
of the ICR.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory. Per 40 CFR 751 and 15
U.S.C. 2605(a)
Estimated number of potential
respondents: 6,515.
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated average number of
responses for each respondent: 7.41.
Total estimated burden: 72,699 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated costs: $5,342,124 (per
year), includes $4,583,912 annualized
capital investment or maintenance and
operational costs.

III. Are there changes in the estimates
from the last approval?
There is an increase of 72,692 hours
in the total estimated respondent
burden compared with that identified in
the ICR currently approved by OMB.
This change, which is discussed in more
detail in the ICR, reflects increase is a
result of consolidating two existing ICRs
into one. This change is an adjustment.
IV. What is the next step in the process
for this ICR?
EPA will consider the comments
received and amend the ICR as
appropriate. The final ICR package will
then be submitted to OMB for review
and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal
Register document pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the
submission of the ICR to OMB and the
opportunity to submit additional
comments to OMB. If you have any
questions about this ICR or the approval
process, please contact the person listed

General Description of Collection:
Section 17A(c) of the Security Exchange
Act of 1934 (the Act) requires all
transfer agents for securities registered
under section 12 of the Act or, if the
security would be required to be
registered except for the exemption from
registration provided by section
12(g)(2)(B) or section 12(g)(2)(G), to
‘‘fil[e] with the appropriate regulatory
agency . . . an application for
registration in such form and containing
such information and documents . . . as
such appropriate regulatory agency may
prescribe as necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of this
section.’’ In general, an entity
performing transfer agent functions for a
security is required to register with its
appropriate regulatory agency if the
security is registered on a national
securities exchange or if the issuer of
the security has total assets exceeding
$10 million and a class of equity
security held of record by 2,000 persons
or, for an issuer that is not a bank, bank
holding company, or savings and loan
holding company, by 500 persons who
are not accredited investors. The
Federal Reserve Board of Governors’
Regulation H (12 CFR 208.31(a)) and
Regulation Y (12 CFR 225.4(d)), the
OCC’s 12 CFR 9.20, and the FDIC’s 12
CFR part 341 implement these
provisions of the Act. To accomplish the
registration of transfer agents, Form TA–
1 was developed in 1975 as an
interagency effort by the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the agencies.
The agencies primarily use the data
collected on Form TA–1 to determine
whether an application for registration
should be approved, denied, accelerated
or postponed, and they use the data in
connection with their supervisory
responsibilities. There is no change in
the methodology or substance of this
information collection. The estimated
burden remains unchanged from the
previous submission.
2. Title: Market Risk Capital
Requirements.
OMB Number: 3064–0178.

General Description of Collection: The
FDIC’s market risk capital rules (12 CFR
part 324, subpart F) enhance risk
sensitivity, increase transparency
through enhanced disclosures and
include requirements for the public
disclosure of certain qualitative and
quantitative information about the
market risk of State nonmember banks
and State savings associations (covered
FDIC-supervised institutions). The
market risk rule applies only if a bank
holding company or bank has
aggregated trading assets and trading
liabilities equal to 10 percent or more of
quarter-end total assets or $1 billion or
more (covered FDIC-supervised
institutions). Currently, only one FDICregulated entity meets the criteria of the
information collection requirements that
are located at 12 CFR 324.203 through
324.212. The collection of information
is necessary to ensure capital adequacy
appropriate for the level of market risk.
Section 324.203(a)(1) requires covered
FDIC-supervised institutions to have
clearly defined policies and procedures
for determining which trading assets
and trading liabilities are trading
positions and specifies the factors a
covered FDIC-supervised institution
must take into account in drafting those
policies and procedures. Section
324.203(a)(2) requires covered FDICsupervised institutions to have clearly
defined trading and hedging strategies
for trading positions that are approved
by senior management and specifies
what the strategies must articulate.
Section 324.203(b)(1) requires covered
FDIC-supervised institutions to have
clearly defined policies and procedures
for actively managing all covered
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:20 Aug 22, 2025
Jkt 265001
positions and specifies the minimum
requirements for those policies and
procedures. Sections 324.203(c)(4)
through (10) require the annual review
of internal models and specify certain
requirements for those models. Section
324.203(d) requires the internal audit
group of a covered FDIC-supervised
institution to prepare an annual report
to the board of directors on the
effectiveness of controls supporting the
market risk measurement systems.
Section 324.204(b) requires covered
FDIC-supervised institutions to conduct
quarterly back testing. Section
324.205(a)(5) requires institutions to
demonstrate to the FDIC the
appropriateness of proxies used to
capture risks within value-at-risk
models. Section 324.205(c) requires
institutions to develop, retain, and make
available to the FDIC value-at-risk and
profit and loss information on sub
portfolios for two years. Section
324.206(b)(3) requires covered FDICsupervised institutions to have policies
and procedures that describe how they
determine the period of significant
financial stress used to calculate the
institution’s stressed value-at-risk
models and to obtain prior FDIC
approval for any material changes to
these policies and procedures. Section
324.207(b)(1) details requirements
applicable to a covered FDIC-supervised
institution when the covered FDICsupervised institution uses internal
models to measure the specific risk of
certain covered positions. Section
324.208 requires covered FDICsupervised institutions to obtain prior
written FDIC approval for including
equity positions in its incremental risk

Frm 00015
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
modeling. Section 324.209(a) requires
prior FDIC approval for the use of a
comprehensive risk measure. Section
324.209(c)(2) requires covered FDICsupervised institutions to retain and
report the results of supervisory stress
testing. Section 324.210(f)(2)(i) requires
covered FDIC-supervised institutions to
document an internal analysis of the
risk characteristics of each
securitization position in order to
demonstrate an understanding of the
position. Section 324.212 applies to
certain covered FDIC-supervised
institutions that are not subsidiaries of
bank holding companies, and requires
quarterly quantitative disclosures,
annual qualitative disclosures, and a
formal disclosure policy approved by
the board of directors that addresses the
approach for determining the market
risk disclosures it makes. The total
estimated annual burden is 428 hours,
which is a reduction of 4,032 hours
from the 2022 submission. This
reduction is due to a change in agency
estimates. The FDIC’s estimates
significantly lowered because
respondent institutions have generally
already received prior approval for
incremental risk modeling and the use
of a comprehensive risk measure for one
or more portfolios of correlation trading
positions. Therefore, the agency predicts
these respondents will not re-submit
these models for approval, reducing the
overall 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 accuracy of the estimates of the
burden of the information collection,
including the validity of the
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.

expedited process by which agencies
may obtain OMB’s approval of
collection of information requests that
are ‘‘usually voluntary, low-burden, and
uncontroversial collections,’’ do not
raise any substantive or policy issues,
and do not require policy or
