SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Paperwork Reduction Act

The collection of information contained in this notice of proposed
rulemaking has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget
for review in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
3504(h)). Comments on the collection of information should be sent to
the Office of Management and Budget, Attn: Desk Officer for the
Department of the Treasury, Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Washington, DC 20503, with copies to the Internal Revenue
Service, Attn: IRS Reports Clearance Officer, PC:FP, Washington, DC
20224.
The collection of information in this regulation is in
Sec. 1.6050I-2T. This information is required by the IRS to implement
section 20415 of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of
1994. The information will be used to identify taxpayers with large
cash incomes. The respondents are governmental institutions.
The collection of information in Sec. 1.6050I-2T is satisfied by
including the required information on a Form 8300 filed with the IRS
and on written statements furnished to the United States Attorney for
the jurisdiction in which the individual charged with the specified
criminal offense resides and the jurisdiction in which the specified
criminal offense occurred, and to each person posting bail whose name
is required to be reported to the IRS. The burden for these
requirements is reflected in the burden estimates for Form 8300.

Background

Temporary regulations in the Rules and Regulations portion of this
issue of the Federal Register amend 26 CFR parts 1 and 602 relating to
section 6050I. The temporary regulations contain rules relating to the
cash reporting requirements of court clerks with respect to the receipt
of bail.
The text of those temporary regulations also serves as the text of
these proposed regulations. The preamble to the temporary regulations
explains the temporary regulations.

Special Analyses

It has been determined that this notice of proposed rulemaking is
not a significant regulatory action as defined in EO 12866. Therefore,
a regulatory assessment is not required. It has also been determined
that section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
chapter 5) and the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) do
not apply to these proposed rules, and, therefore, a Regulatory
Flexibility Analysis is not required. Pursuant to section 7805(f) of
the Internal Revenue Code, this notice of proposed rulemaking will be
submitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration for comment on its impact on small businesses.

Comments and Public Hearing

Before these proposed regulations are adopted as final regulations,
consideration will be given to any written comments that are submitted
timely (a signed original and eight (8) copies) to the IRS. All
comments will be available for public inspection and copying.
A public hearing has been scheduled for Monday, March 13, 1995 at
10 a.m. in the IRS Auditorium, 7th Floor, Internal Revenue Building,
1111 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC. Because of access
restrictions, visitors will not be admitted beyond the building lobby
more than 15 minutes before the hearing starts.
The rules of Sec. 601.601(a)(3) apply to the hearing.
Persons that have submitted written comments by February 13, 1995
and want to present oral comments at the hearing must submit, by
Monday, February 20, 1995, an outline of the topics to be discussed and
the time to be devoted to each topic (signed original and eight (8)
copies). A period of 10 minutes will be allotted to each person for
making comments. An agenda showing the scheduling of the speakers will
be prepared after the deadline for receiving outlines has passed.
Copies of the agenda will be available free of charge at the hearing.

Drafting Information

The principal author of the temporary regulations is Susie K. Bird
of the Office of Assistant Chief Counsel (Income Tax and Accounting).
However, other personnel from the IRS and Treasury Department
participated in their development.
