SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 

applicable to residential mortgage 

financing arrangements involving 

employee benefit plans (PTE 88–59) 

permits an employee benefit plan to 

enter into specified transactions 

involving residential mortgage loans 

with parties in interest without violating 

the prohibited transaction provisions of 

the Employee Retirement Income 

Security Act of 1974, provided that plan 

meets specified conditions. Among 

other conditions, the plan must 

maintain records pertaining to covered 

transactions for the duration of the loan 

and must make the records available 

upon request to plan trustees, 

investment managers, participants and 

beneficiaries, and DOL and Internal 

Revenue Service agents. 

This information collection is subject 

to the PRA. A Federal agency generally 

cannot conduct or sponsor a collection 

of information, and the public is 

generally not required to respond to an 

information collection, unless it is 

approved by the OMB under the PRA 

and displays a currently valid OMB 

Control Number. In addition, 

notwithstanding any other provisions of 

law, no person shall generally be subject 

to penalty for failing to comply with a 

collection of information that does not 

display a valid Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1210–0095. OMB authorization 

for an ICR cannot be for more than three 

(3) years without renewal, and the 

current approval for this collection is 

scheduled to expire on May 31, 2013. 

The DOL seeks OMB to extend PRA 

authorization for this information 

collection for three (3) more years 

without any change to existing 

requirements. It should be noted that 

existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional information, see the related 

notice published in the Federal Register 

on November 27, 2012 (77 FR 70828). 

Interested parties are encouraged to

this notice in the Federal Register. In 

order to help ensure appropriate 

consideration, comments should 

mention OMB Control Number 1210– 

0095. The OMB is particularly 

interested in comments that: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

• Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: President 

Barack Obama signed Executive Order 

13496 (E.O. 13496) on January 30, 2009, 

requiring certain Government 

contractors and subcontractors to post 

notices informing their employees of 

their rights as employees under Federal 

labor laws. Regulations 29 CFR 471.11 

provides for DOL to accept a written 

complaint alleging that a contractor 

doing business with the Federal 

government has failed to post the notice 

required by E.O. 13496. The section 

establishes that no special complaint 

form is required; however, a complaint 

must be in writing. In addition, the 

complaint must contain certain 

information, including the name, 

address, and telephone number of the 

person submitting the complaint and 

the name and address of the Federal 

contractor alleged to have violated the 

rule. The section also establishes that a 

written complaint may be submitted to 

either the Office of Federal Contract 

Compliance Programs or OLMS.
