    Rule 30d-1, SEC File No. 270-21, OMB Control No. 3235-0025

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act

(``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a

of reports to shareholders that every registered investment company 
must send at least semi-annually, containing the information specified 
by the statute or its equivalent as the Commission may determine to be 
in the interest of the investors. The reports are required in order to 
inform current shareholders of the status of the company. The rule 
requires approximately 602 hours annually for each of the 3,850 
respondents equalling 2,317,700 total annual burden hours.
    Rule 30d-1 does not involve any recordkeeping requirements. 
Providing the information required by rule 30d-1 is mandatory and the 
information provided will not be kept confidential.
    The Commission may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 
required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays 
a currently valid control number.
    General comments regarding the above information should be directed 
to the following persons: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Office of Management and Budget, Room 3208, New Executive Office
