    Rules 7a-15 through 7a-37 (17 CFR 260.7a-15-260.7a-37) under the 
Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. 77aaa et seq.) set forth the

and reports that must be filed under the Trust Indenture Act. The 
respondents are persons and entities subject to requirements of the 
Trust Indenture Act. Trust Indenture Act Rules 7a-15 through 7a-37 are 
disclosure guidelines and do not directly result in any collection of 
information. The rules are assigned only one burden hour for 
administrative convenience.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether this proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of 
the burden imposed by the collection of information; (c) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information 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. Consideration will 
be given to comments and suggestions submitted in writing within 60 
days of this publication.
    An agency 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.
