SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: Process for a Swap Execution Facility or Designated Contract 
Market to Make a Swap Available to Trade (OMB Control No. 3038-0099). 
This is a request for extension of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: The collection of information is needed to help determine 
which swaps should be subject to the trade execution requirement under 
Section 2(h)(8) of the Commodity Exchange Act pursuant to Section 723 
of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. A 
swap execution facility (``SEF'') or designated contract market 
(``DCM'') that submits a determination that a swap is available to 
trade must address at least one of several factors to demonstrate that 
the swap is suitable for trading pursuant to the trade execution 
requirement. The Commission uses the collection of information to 
facilitate the application of the trade execution requirement and the 
requirements associated with methods of execution under parts 37 and 38 
of the Commission's regulations.
    The Commission did not receive any relevant comments on the 60-day 
Federal Register notice, 81 FR 38689, dated June 14, 2016.
    Burden Statement: The Commission estimates the burden of reviewing 
the prescribed factors and data to make a determination for this 
collection to be 16 hours per response. The total cost

[[Page 57891]]

burden per rule submission filing is estimated to be $958.16. The 
Commission based its calculation on (1) an hourly wage rate of $48.14 
for a Compliance Specialist to perform the filing over 8 hours;\1\ an 
hourly wage rate of $71.63 for one economist to analyze trading data in 
the process over 8 hours.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Report on Management & Professional Earnings in the 
Securities Industry 2013, Securities Industry and Financial Markets 
Association at 4 (Oct. 2013). The report lists the average total 
annual compensation for a compliance specialist (intermediate) as 
$66,649. The Commission estimated the personnel's hourly cost by 
assuming an 1,800 hour work year and by multiplying by 1.3 to 
account for overhead and other benefits.
    \2\ See Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, 
Occupational Outlook Handbook, Economists, http://www.bls.gov/ooh/life-physical-and-social-science/economists.htm. The report lists 
the median total annual compensation for an economist as $99,180. 
The Commission estimated the economist personnel's hourly cost by 
assuming an 1,800 hour work year and by multiplying by 1.3 to 
account for overhead and other benefits.
