OMB is returning this request to SEC because it was improperly submitted. Even though the supporting statement describes a revision to the information collection that resulted in a program change exceeding $170 million (according to the summary of burden entered into ROCIS), SEC requested an "extension without change" of a currently approved collection. In its next submission, SEC should request a revision and ensure that the summary of burden is consistent with the explanation provided in the supporting statement.
