SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 
20549-2736.

Extension: Industry Guides, SEC File No. 270-069, OMB Control No. 
3235-0069.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the collection of 
information summarized below. The Commission plans to submit this 
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and 
Budget for extension and approval.
    Industry Guides are used by registrants in certain industries as 
disclosure guidelines to be followed in presenting information to 
investors in Securities Act (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) and Exchange Act 
(15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) registration statements and certain other 
Exchange Act filings. The paperwork burden from the Industry Guides is 
imposed through the forms that are subject to the disclosure 
requirements in the Industry Guides and is reflected in the analysis of 
these documents. To avoid a Paperwork Reduction Act inventory 
reflecting duplicative burdens, for administrative convenience the 
Commission estimates the total annual burden imposed by the Industry 
Guides to be one hour.
    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.
    Please direct your written comment to Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549 or send an email 
to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.

    Dated: February 12, 2016.
Robert W. Errett,
Deputy Secretary.
