DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Office of Thrift Supervision

AGENCY: Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), Treasury.
ACTION: Notice and request for comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury, as part of its continuing
effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites the general
public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed and continuing
information collections, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, 44 U.S.C. 3507. The Office of Thrift Supervision within the
Department of the Treasury will submit the proposed information
collection requirement described below to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act.
Today, OTS is soliciting public comments on its proposal to extend this
information collection.
DATES: Submit written comments on or before September 19, 2011.
ADDRESSES: Send comments, referring to the collection by title of the
proposal or by OMB approval number, to Information Collection Comments,
Chief Counsel's Office, Office of Thrift Supervision, 1700 G Street,
NW., Washington, DC 20552.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: You can request additional information
about this proposed information collection by sending an e-mail to
[email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OTS may not conduct or sponsor an
information collection, and respondents are not required to respond to
an information collection, unless the information collection displays a
currently valid OMB control number. As part of the approval process, we
invite comments on the following information collection.
Comments should address one or more of the following points:
a. Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions of OTS;
b. The accuracy of OTS's estimate of the burden of the proposed
information collection;
c. Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected;
d. Ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on
respondents, including through the use of information technology.
We will summarize the comments that we receive and include them in
the OTS request for OMB approval. All comments will become a matter of
public record. In this notice, OTS is soliciting comments concerning
the following information collection.
Title of Proposal: Capital Distribution.
OMB Number: 1550-0059.
Form Number: 1583.
Description: The OTS reviews the information to determine whether
the request of savings associations is in accordance with existing
statutory and regulatory criteria. In addition, the information
provides the OTS with a mechanism for monitoring capital distributions
since these distributions can reduce an association's capital and
perhaps places it at risk.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 366.
Estimated Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Total Burden: 657 hours.
Dated: July 13, 2011.
Ira L. Mills,
Paperwork Clearance Officer, Office of Chief Counsel, Office of Thrift
Supervision.
