In
accordance with the Privacy Act of
1974, as amended by the Computer
Matching and Privacy Protection Act of
1988 and the Computer Matching and
Privacy Protections Amendment of 1990
(Privacy Act), and Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) guidance on the
conduct of matching programs,
including OMB Final Guidance
Interpreting the Provisions of Public
Law 100–53 (published in the Federal
Register on June 19, 1989 (54 FR 25818)
and OMB Circular A–108, notice is
hereby given of the re-establishment of
a matching program between the Office
of Personnel Management (OPM) and
the Social Security Administration
(SSA). This matching program,
Computer Matching Agreement 1071, is
being re-established to enable OPM to
offset specific benefits paid to disability
annuitants, child survivor annuitants,
and spousal survivor annuitants by a
percentage of benefits payable by SSA
under Title II of the Social Security Act,
as required by law.
Participating Agencies: OPM and
SSA.
Authority for Conducting the
Matching Program: OPM’s authority to
participate in this matching program
derives from 5 U.S.C. 8442(f), 8443(a),
8452(a)(2)(A), and 8461(h)(1). SSA is
authorized to participate in this
matching program pursuant to 42 U.S.C.
1306.
Purpose(s): The purpose of this
matching program between OPM and
SSA is to assist OPM in meeting its legal
obligation to offset specific benefits
payable by OPM to disability
annuitants, child survivor annuitants,
and spousal survivor annuitants. SSA
will disclose to OPM benefit
information regarding individuals who
receive benefits from SSA under Title II
of the Social Security Act, which OPM
will use to determine an individual’s
eligibility to receive benefits from OPM

Categories of Individuals: The
individuals about whom OPM
maintains information that are involved
in this matching program include
retired Federal employees who are

children and surviving spouses of those
disability annuitants who are
themselves eligible or potentially
eligible to receive an annuity from OPM.

those individuals for whom SSA has a
record, SSA will provide OPM with
information about an individual’s
beneficiary status and any associated
benefit information; for those
individuals for whom SSA cannot
match the SSN, SSA will return an
appropriate code to OPM.

Extension:
Rule 15g–4; [SEC File No. 270–347, OMB
Control No. 3235–0393]

Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the
existing collection of information
provided for in Rule 15g–4—Disclosure
of compensation to brokers or dealers
(17 CRF 240.15g–4) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.).
Rule 15g–4 requires brokers and
dealers effecting transactions in penny
stocks for or with customers to disclose
the amount of compensation received by
the broker-dealer in connection with the
transaction. The purpose of the rule is
to increase the level of disclosure to
investors concerning penny stocks
generally and specific penny stock
transactions.
The Commission estimates that
approximately 178 broker-dealers will
each spend an average of approximately
87.0833333 hours annually to comply
with this rule. Thus, the total time
burden is approximately 15,501 hours
per year.
Rule 15g–4 contains record retention
requirements. Compliance with the rule
is mandatory. The required records are
available only to the examination staff
of the Commission and the self
regulatory organizations of which the
broker-dealer is a member.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
under the PRA unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.

ATS–R, and file cessation of operations
reports on Form ATS. An alternative
trading system with significant volume
is required to comply with requirements
for fair access and systems capacity,

imposes certain requirements pertaining
to written safeguards and procedures to
protect subscribers’ confidential trading
information.
The Commission staff estimates that
entities subject to the requirements of

approximately 2,687 hours a year to
comply with the Rule.
