In March 1997, the Commission established accounting rules that require carriers to account for adverse federal antitrust judgments and post-judgments special charges. To receive recognition of its avoided cost of litigation, a carrier must demonstrate, in a request for special relief, the avoided costs of litigation by showing the amount corresponding to the additional litigation expenses discounted to present value, that the carrier reasonably estimates it would have paid if it had not settled. A carrier requesting recovery of the avoided costs of litigation must accompany its request with clear and convincing evidence that, without the settlement, it would have incurred the expenses it estimates. The evidence will vary according to the circumstances. Federal Communications Commission. Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary. [FR Doc.

Report title:* Weekly Report of Eurodollar Liabilities Held by Selected U.S. Addressees at Foreign Offices of U.S. Banks *Agency form number:* FR 2050 *OMB Control number:* 7100-0068 *Effective Date:* Respondents submitted their final data for the reporting week ending March 6, 2006. *Frequency:* Weekly *Reporters:* Foreign branches and banking subsidiaries of U.S. depository institutions. *Annual reporting hours:* 1,872 hours *Estimated average hours per response:* 1.0 hour *Number of respondents:* 36 *General description of report:* This information collection is voluntary (12 U.S.C.§§ 248(a)(2), 353 et seq., 461, 602, and 625). Individual respondent's data are confidential under section (b)(4) of the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)). *Abstract:* This reporting form collected data on Eurodollar deposits payable to nonbank U.S. addressees from foreign branches and subsidiaries of U.S. commercial banks and Edge and agreement corporations. The data were used for the construction of the Eurodollar component of the monetary aggregates and for analysis of banks' liability management practices. *Current Actions:* The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System announced on November 10, 2005, that it would cease publication of the M3 monetary aggregate on March 23, 2006. M3 does not appear to contain any additional information about economic activity that is not already embodied in M2. Moreover, the role of M3 in the monetary policy process has greatly diminished over time. The costs to the Federal Reserve and the private sector of collecting data and publishing M3 now outweigh the benefits. The discontinuation of this report will reduce private sector burden by 1,872 hours per year. On January 24, 2006, the Federal Reserve published a notice soliciting comments on the proposed discontinuance to the FR 2050 reporting form (71 FR 3844). The comment period ended on March 27, 2006. The Federal Reserve did not receive any comments on the discontinuance. *2. Report title:* Report of Repurchase Agreements

(RPs)on U.S. Government and Federal Agency Securities with Specified Holders *Agency form number:* FR 2415 *OMB Control number:* 7100-0074 *Effective Date:* Weekly reporters submitted their final FR 2415 for the report week ending March 6, 2006. Quarterly reporters submitted their final data for the week containing the last calendar day of December 2005. Annual reporters submitted their final data for the week containing June 30, 2005. *Frequency:* Weekly, quarterly, or annually *Reporters:* U.S chartered commercial banks, U.S branches and agencies of foreign banks, thrift institutions, and credit unions *Annual reporting hours:* 2,615 hours *Estimated average hours per response:* 30 minutes *Number of respondents:* 84 weekly, 128 quarterly, and 350 annually Small businesses are not affected. *General description of report:* This information collection is voluntary (12 U.S.C. 248(a)(2) and 3105(b)) and is given confidential treatment (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)). *Abstract:* This reporting form collected one data item, repurchase agreements (RPs), in denominations of $100,000 or more, in immediately-available funds, on U.S. government and federal agency securities, transacted with specified holders. Depository institutions submitted the FR 2415 weekly, quarterly or annually depending on the volume of their RPs. In general, the larger the respondent's level of RPs, the more frequent the submissions. The weekly panel submitted daily data once each week; the quarterly panel files daily data for the four one-week reporting periods that contain quarter-end dates; the annual panel submitted daily data only for the week encompassing June 30 each year. The primary purpose of the data was for construction of the RP component of the M3 monetary aggregate and for analysis of depository institutions' funding practices. *Current Actions:* The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System announced on November 10, 2005, that it would cease publication of the M3 monetary aggregate on March 23, 2006. M3 does not appear to contain any additional information about economic activity that is not already embodied in M2. Moreover, the role of M3 in the monetary policy process has greatly diminished over time. The costs to the Federal Reserve and the private sector of collecting data and publishing M3 now outweigh the benefits. The discontinuation of this report will reduce private sector burden by 2,615 hours per year. On January 24, 2006, the Federal Reserve published a notice soliciting comments on the proposed discontinuance to the FR 2415 reporting form (71 FR 3844). The comment period ended on March 27, 2006. The Federal Reserve did not receive any comments on the discontinuance. Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, April 7, 2006. Jennifer J. Johnson Secretary of the Board. [FR Doc.
