SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: Multiple Peril Crop Insurance.
    OMB Number: 0563-0053.
    Expiration Date of Approval: January 31, 2016.
    Type of Request: Renewal of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: The information collection requirements for this renewal 
package are necessary for administering the Federal crop insurance 
program. Producers are required to report specific data when they apply 
for Federal crop insurance and report acreage, yields, and notices of 
loss. Insurance companies accept applications; issue policies; 
establish and provide insurance coverage; compute liability, premium, 
subsidies, and losses; indemnify producers; and report specific data to 
FCIC as required in Appendix III/M13 Handbook. Commodities for which 
Federal crop insurance is available are included in this information 
collection package.
    FCIC is requesting the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to 
renew the approval of this information collection for an additional 3 
years.
    The purpose of this notice is to solicit comments from the public 
concerning this information collection. These comments will help us:
    (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information has practical utility;
    (2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information;
    (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    (4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond (such as through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other forms of information technology, e.g., 
permitting electronic submission of responses).
    Estimate of Burden: The public reporting burden for this collection 
of information are estimated to average 0.76 of an hour per response.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Producers and insurance companies 
reinsured by FCIC.
    Estimated Annual Number of Respondents: 590,750
    Estimated Annual Number of Responses Per Respondent: 19.2
    Estimated Annual Number of Responses: 11,331,829
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 8,555,856
    All responses to this notice will be summarized and included in the 
request for OMB approval. All comments will also become a matter of 
public record.
