Standards for Assessing the Diversity Policies and Practices'' 
information collection by adding a form to the information collection 
entitled ``Diversity Self-Assessment Template for Entities Regulated by 
the FDIC.'' No comments were received. The FDIC hereby gives notice of 
its plan to submit to OMB a request to approve the renewal of these 
collections, and again invites comment on this renewal.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposal to renew the following currently 
approved collections of information:
    1. Title: Joint Standards for Assessing Diversity Policies and 
Practices.
    OMB Number: 3064-0200.
    Form Number: FDIC 2710/05.
    Affected Public: Insured financial institutions supervised by the 
FDIC.
    Annual Number of Respondents: 398.
    Frequency of Response: Annual.
    Average Response Time per Respondent: 8 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 3,184 hours.
    General Description of Collection: This voluntary information 
collection applies to entities regulated by the FDIC for purposes of 
assessing their diversity policies and practices as described in the 
final Interagency Policy Statement Establishing Joint Standards for 
Assessing the Diversity Policies and Practices of Entities Regulated by 
the Agencies.\1\ This revision to the previously approved collection 
adds a form entitled Diversity Self-Assessment Template for Entities 
Regulated by the FDIC intended to facilitate responders' self-
assessment process. The FDIC estimates that the use of the template 
will result in a reduction in the average response time per respondent 
from 12 hours to 8 hours with a corresponding reduction in the 
estimated total annual burden hours for this collection of information 
from 4,778 hours to 3,184 hours. The Diversity Self-Assessment Template 
for Entities Regulated by the FDIC can be viewed at www.fdic.gov/about/diversity/dsa_template.docx. This revision to the previously approved 
collection of information: (1) Asks for general information about a 
respondent; (2) includes a checklist of the standards set forth in the 
Policy Statement; (3) seeks additional diversity data; and (4) provides 
an opportunity for a respondent to give other information regarding or 
comment on the self-assessment of its diversity policies and practices.

contracting activities and to identify and highlight those policies and 
practices that have been successful. The FDIC will continue to reach 
out to the regulated entities and other interested parties to discuss

confidential business information.
