c. Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected;
d. Ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including through the use of information technology.
We will summarize the comments that we receive and include them in the OTS request for OMB approval. All comments will become a matter of public record. In this notice, OTS is soliciting comments concerning the following information collection.
Title of Proposal: Release of NonPublic Information.
OMB Number: 15500081.
Form Numbers: N/A.

OTS staff also uses the information to help determine whether the requester's need for the unpublished information outweighs the agency's confidentiality concerns.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses or other forprofit.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 25.
Estimated Number of Responses: 25.
Estimated Frequency of Response: On occasion.
