These recordkeeping and reporting requirements are needed to promote and monitor bank security and to ensure bank safety. The information is used by banks, the OCC, and other agencies for bank security and law enforcement purposes.
The decrease in the number of respondents is due to the decrease in the number of national banks. The increase in number of responses and burden hours is due to an increase in the number of SAR filings and more accurate estimates overall.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
