SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Part 39, Risk Management Requirements for Derivatives 
Clearing Organizations, (OMB Control No. 3038-0076). This is a request 
for extension and revision of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: Commission Regulations 39.12, 39.13, 39.14, 39.15, 39.16 
and 39.18 establish risk management requirements for registered 
derivatives clearing organizations (``DCOs''). Regulation 39.3 requires 
any person seeking to register as a DCO to submit a completed Form DCO 
as provided in the appendix to part 39, accompanied by all applicable 
exhibits. The Commission will use the information in this collection to 
assess compliance of DCOs and DCO applicants with requirements for DCOs 
prescribed in the Commodity Exchange Act and Commission regulations.
    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 OMB control number. On July 13, 2018, the Commission 
published in the Federal Register notice of the proposed extension of 
this information collection and provided 60 days for public comment on 
the proposed extension, 83 FR 32638 (``60-Day Notice''). The Commission 
did not receive any relevant comments on the 60-Day Notice.
    Burden Statement: For this collection, the Commission is revising 
its burden estimate for 16 registered DCOs and 3 potential DCO 
applicants, as follows:
    1. Collection 3038-0076--Derivatives Clearing Organization 
Applicants Reporting Requirement (Regulation 39.3 and Form DCO).

    Types of Respondents/Affected Entities: Derivatives clearing

    Estimated annual number of respondents: 19.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Includes 16 currently registered DCOs (an increase of 2 
since the last extension in 2015) and 3 potential applicants.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Estimated average burden hours per response: 9.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Since burden hours vary widely within the collection, this 
is the average of burden hours per response for the collection as a 
whole (aggregate of 450.1 hours/aggregate of 51 responses = 8.82 
hours, rounded to 9).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Estimated total annual burden hours: 2003.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ This figure reflects the burden hours aggregated from tables 
1, 2, and 3 (1200 + 3.2 + 800) = 2003.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Frequency of Collection: On occasion.
    There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs 
associated with this collection.
