Proposed Change Filed to Establish a Fee Relating to the OS/ARD Subsystem

Notice of Filing The Board has filed a proposed change to establish a fee relating to the operation of its OS/ARD subsystem of the MSIL(R) system.

Questions about the filing may be directed to Thomas A. Hutton, Director of MSIL.

On May 19, 1997, the Board filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) a proposed change to establish a fee relating to the operation of its Official Statement/Advance Refunding Document (OS/ARD) subsystem of the Municipal Securities Information Library(R) ("MSIL(R)") system.[1] The Board is establishing a price of $7,000 (plus delivery or postage charges) for its 1996 document collection of official statements and refunding documents, sold as a "backlog" collection. This fee change was effective upon filing with the Commission.[2]

The OS/ARD subsystem, which was activated on April 20, 1992, is a central electronic facility through which information collected and stored pursuant to MSRB rule G-36 is made available electronically and in paper form to market participants and information vendors. [3]
