which a person may apply to have an area designated by the Bureau as a 
rural area for purposes of a Federal consumer financial law. On March

FR 11099) which sets forth the procedure for making this application 
and requires the applicant to submit information identifying the area 
for which the request is made, and the justification for granting the 
area rural status. While the rule specifies what information is to be 
included, it does not specify to the form or format of the information.
    Request for Comments: The Bureau issued a 60-day Federal Register 
notice on February 18, 2016 (81 FR 8179). Comments were solicited and 
continue to be invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Bureau, 
including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) The 
accuracy of the Bureau's estimate of the burden of the collection of 
information, including the validity of the methods and the 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. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be 
summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All 
comments will become a matter of public record.
