                 Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
                of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
                Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the existing
                collection of information provided for in Rule 17g-7 under the
                Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).\1\ The
                Commission plans to submit this existing collection of information to
                the Office of Management and Budget for extension and approval.
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 \1\ See 17 CFR 240.17g-1 and 17 CFR 249b.300.
                ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 Rule 17g-7 contains disclosure requirements for Nationally
                Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (``NRSROs'') including
                certain information to be published when taking a rating action with
                respect to a credit rating. Currently, there are 9 credit rating
                agencies registered as NRSROs with the Commission. The Commission
                estimates that the total burden for respondents to comply with Rule
                17g-7 is 626,262.
                 Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
                collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
                the functions of the Commission, including whether the information
                shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's
                estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c)
                ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information on
                respondents; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
                information on respondents, including through the use of automated
                collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
                Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted in
                writing within 60 days of this publication.
                 The Commission may not conduct or sponsor a collection of
                information unless it displays a currently valid control number. No
                person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a
                collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a
                valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number.
                 Please direct your written comments to: Dave Bottom, Director/Chief
