The Department of Commerce will
submit the following information
collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication
of this notice. We invite the general
public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed, and continuing
information collections, which helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. Public
comments were previously requested
via the Federal Register on October 3,
2024, during a 60-day comment period.
This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comments.

Total Annual Burden Hours: 2,590.
Needs and Uses: This request is for
revision and extension of a currently
approved information collection. The
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) collects,
generates, retains, and redistributes
geospatial metadata in a wide array of
data formats covering diverse aspects of
earth, biological, and space sciences. To
fully understand and reuse these data
over the course of many years, NOAA
provides several metadata
documentation tools for various
communities of users to enable them to
easily create complete, standards-based
descriptive information about geospatial
data. The following tools, in use or
planned for use by NOAA program
offices, are authorized to collect
geospatial metadata consistent with
Executive Order 12906, NOAA
Administrative Order 212–15, and the
2013 Office of Science and Technology
Policy Memorandum ‘Public Access to
Research Results’. Geospatial metadata
collected by the listed tools are
‘voluntary’ but the ability for data
documented by relevant geospatial
metadata is significantly degraded if
metadata are incomplete, inaccurate or
otherwise less than the information
collection tool supports.
National Environmental Satellite,
Data and Information Service (NESDIS):
Send2NCEI web application (currently
approved as OMB Control Number:
0648–0024).
National Environmental Satellite,
Data and Information Service: Advanced
Tracking and Resource tool for Archive
Collections (ATRAC) web application.
National Environmental Satellite,
Data and Information Service:
Collection Metadata Editing Tool
(CoMET) web application.
National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS): InPort metadata authoring tool.
Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric
Research (OAR): Science Data
Information System (SDIS) metadata
and data submission tool.
Collecting geospatial metadata is
necessary to fully understand, use, and
reuse geospatial data since the metadata
provides contextual information about
data formats, bounding areas, use and
access limitations (if any). Geospatial
metadata from this information
collection also supports multiple search
and discovery catalog services, such as
data.gov, NASA Global Change Master
Directory (GCMD), and many others.
Information will be collected from
data producers (primarily university,
private industry, and governmentfunded scientific researchers) in
multiple fields of geosciences, biological
and atmospheric sciences, and socio-

economic sciences. Geospatial metadata
typically includes descriptive
information about specific observed,
calculated, or modelled data (e.g., title,
abstract, purpose statement, descriptive
discovery keywords), characteristics of
the described data (e.g., date and spatial
range of data collection activities, data
processing steps, collected/measured
variables and units of measure for those
variables) and administrative
information (e.g., who collected or
created data and metadata, how to cite
data when used in scientific analyses).
Information collected by the listed tools
is used to inform the appropriate use of
data described by related geospatial
metadata.
Two applications in the existing
approved collection have had minor
changes to their forms. The Send2NCEI
application added a license selector.
InPort has changed one of the fields
from a text field to a drop-down list
selector. These changes do not impact
the response burden.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; Not-for-profit
institutions; State, Local, or Tribal
government; Federal government.
Frequency: As needed for geospatial
data documentation purposes.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: Executive Order
12906 and the 2013 Office of Science
and Technology Policy Memorandum
‘Public Access to Research Results’.
This information collection request
may be viewed at www.reginfo.gov.
Follow the instructions to view the
Department of Commerce collections
currently under review by OMB.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be
submitted within 30 days of the
publication of this notice on the
following website www.reginfo.gov/

particular information collection by

for public comment on the proposed
renewal of a collection of certain
information by the agency. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (‘‘PRA’’),
Federal agencies are required to publish
notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for
public comment. This notice solicits
comments on the obligation to maintain
records related to clearing
documentation between a customer and
the customer’s clearing member, as
required under Commission regulations.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before April 7, 2025.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,

instructions for submitting comments
through the website.
• Mail: Christopher Kirkpatrick,
Secretary of the Commission,
Commodity Futures Trading
Commission, Three Lafayette Centre,

Please submit your comments using
only one method.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Catherine Brescia, Attorney Advisor,
Market Participants Division,
Commodity Futures Trading
Commission, Three Lafayette Centre,
1155 21st Street NW, Washington, DC
20581; (202) 418–6236; email: cbrescia@
cftc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of Information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3
and includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public

submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A), requires Federal agencies
to provide a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, the Commission is
publishing notice of the proposed
extension of the existing collection of
information listed below. 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 OMB control
number.1
Title: Clearing Member Risk
Management (OMB Control No. 3038–
0094). This is a request for an extension
of a currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: Section 3(b) of the
Commodity Exchange Act (‘‘Act’’ or
‘‘CEA’’) provides that one of the
purposes of the Act is to ensure the
financial integrity of all transactions
subject to the Act and to avoid systemic
risks. Section 8a(5) of the CEA
authorizes the Commission to
promulgate such regulations that it
believes are reasonably necessary to
effectuate any of the provisions or to
accomplish any of the purposes of the
CEA. Risk management systems are
critical to the avoidance of systemic
risks.
Section 4d requires Futures
Commission Merchants (‘‘FCMs’’) to
register with the Commission. It further
requires FCMs to segregate customer
funds. Section 4f requires FCMs to
maintain certain levels of capital.
Section 4g establishes reporting and
recordkeeping requirements for FCMs.
Section 4s(j)(2) of the CEA requires each
Swap Dealer (‘‘SD’’) and Major Swap
Participant (‘‘MSP’’) to have risk
management systems adequate for
managing its day-to-day business.
Section 4s(j)(4) requires each SD and
MSP to have internal systems and
procedures to obtain any necessary
information to perform any of the
functions set forth in Section 4s.
Pursuant to these provisions, the
Commission adopted Commission
regulation 1.73 which applies to
clearing members that are FCMs and
Commission regulation 23.609 which
applies to clearing members that are SDs

regulations were published on December 30, 1981.
