    Abstract: This notice covers a proposed revision of a currently

banking industry, and to analyze staff and training needs.

Community and Mid-size Banks, and one for Large Banks. Community and 
Mid-size Banks will receive the questionnaire as part of each 
examination. Large Banks will be invited to provide comments annually.
    Type of Review: Revision.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents: 2,800.
    Total Annual Responses: 2,660.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Total Annual Burden: 665 hours.

Comments

    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will become 
a matter of public record. Comments are invited on:
    (1) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
the information has practical utility;
    (2) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
collection of information;
    (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected;
    (4) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology; and
