The form is used in the
redemption of Treasury securities held in paper form. A decline in
the use of the form is anticipated since this type of security is
no longer issued, and securities will reach final maturity in
September 2016. The reduction of 175 burden hours is a change due
to an adjustment in this estimate, for a total of 50 burden hours
for this information collection.
