information collection for which RUS intends to request approval from 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).

DATES: Comments on this notice must be received by May 26, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Thomas P. Dickson, Deputy Director, 
Program Development and Regulatory Analysis, USDA Rural Utilities 
Service, 1400 Independence Avenue SW., STOP 1522, Room 5164-S, 
Washington, DC 20250-1522. Telephone: (202) 690-4492. FAX: (202) 720-
8435. Email: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) 
regulation (5 CFR 1320) implementing provisions of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13) requires that interested members 
of the public and affected agencies have an opportunity to comment on 
information collection and recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR 
1320.8(d)). This notice identifies an information collection that RUS 
is submitting to OMB for extension.
    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the 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 of the 
proposed collection of information including the validity of the 
methodology and 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 those who are 
to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology. Comments may be sent to: Thomas 
P. Dickson, Deputy Director, Program Development and Regulatory

    Title: Request for Mail List Data, RUS Form 87.
    OMB Control Number: 0572-0051.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: The RUS Form 87 is used for both the Rural Utilities 
Service Electric and Telecommunications programs to obtain the names

communicate directly in order to administer the Agency's lending 
programs. Changes occurring at the borrower's annual meeting (e.g. the 
selection of board members, managers, attorneys, certified public 
accountants, or other officials) make necessary the collection of 
information.
    Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this collection of 
information is estimated to average .25 hour per response.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit and non-profit 
institutions.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 980.

    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 245.
