    Collection title: Application for Membership for the Community 
Advisory Council.
    Agency form number: FR 1401.
    OMB control number: 7100-to be assigned.
    Frequency: Annual.
    Reporters: Persons seeking to be considered for Community Advisory 
Council (CAC) membership.
    Estimated annual reporting hours: 1,100 hours.
    Estimated average hours per response: 1 hour.
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,100.
    General description of information collection: The CAC Application 
is required to obtain a benefit and is a collection of information from 
persons seeking to be considered for membership on the CAC. It is 
authorized pursuant to the Federal Reserve's general authority to 
establish the CAC, which is derived from sections 2A and 10 of the 
Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 225a and 244).
    Information provided on the Application for Membership will be kept 
confidential under exemption (b)(6) of the Freedom of Information Act 
(FOIA) to the extent that the disclosure of information ``would 
constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.'' (5 
U.S.C. 552(b)(6)).
    Abstract: The CAC was established to provide information, advice, 
and recommendations to the Board on policy matters and issues affecting 
consumers and communities. The Application for Membership would be used 
to obtain information about the experience and qualification of persons 
seeking to be considered for CAC membership. The Application for 
Membership would collect a candidate's contact information, current 
employment, areas of expertise, a resume, which typically includes 
information about employment history, education, and training, and a 
statement explaining why they are interested in serving on the CAC and 
what they believe are their primary qualifications. Candidates could 
voluntarily elect to provide additional information to support their 
application, such as copies of publications or letters of 
recommendation.
    Current Actions: On November 25, 2015 the Federal Reserve published 
a notice in the Federal Register (80 FR 73765) requesting public 
comment for 60 days on the implementation of the Application for 
Membership for the Community Advisory Council. The comment period for 
this notice expired on January 25, 2016. The Federal Reserve did not 
receive any comments. The Application will be implemented as proposed.

    Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, March 1, 2016.
Robert deV. Frierson,
Secretary of the Board.
