45256 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 168 / Tuesday, September 1, 2009 / Notices 

Federal Government, the Library of 

Congress, the Government Printing 

Office, or employees of the U.S. 

Congress. Form LM–30 filers must 

ensure the maintenance and retention of 

supporting records for five years after 

the required reports are filed. 

On July 2, 2007, the Department 

published a final rule establishing a 

revised Form LM–30, which 

dramatically altered the pre-2007 Form 

LM–30 (72 FR 36105). The information 

collection for the 2007 version of the 

Form LM–30 is currently approved by 

OMB through November 30, 2011, with 

an OMB number of 1215–0188. 

(Information collection 1215–0188 also 

includes the remaining LMRDA 

reporting and disclosure forms). 

However, fundamental questions have 

arisen regarding the scope and extent of 

the reporting obligations under the 2007 

Form LM–30 and remain unanswered, 

and litigation challenging some aspects 

of this form remains pending. The 

Department published in the spring 

2009 Semi-Annual Regulatory Agenda 

notice of an intended rulemaking to 

revise the Form LM–30. The rulemaking 

is intended to review questions of 

policy and law surrounding the union 

officer and employee-reporting 

obligation and will focus on reporting 

changes resulting from the 2007 

regulatory revision of the LM–30 form 

and instructions. 

While the planned rulemaking is 

pending, union officers and employees 

must continue to meet their statutory 

obligation pursuant to section 202 of the 

LMRDA. In light of the unresolved 

questions regarding the scope of 

reporting required under section 202, 

the pending regulatory action, the 

pending litigation, and the statutorily 

mandated filing obligation, the 

Department has determined that it 

would not be a good use of resources to 

bring enforcement actions based upon a 

failure to use a specific form to comply 

with the statutory obligation to report 

under section 202 of the LMRDA. 

Accordingly, the Department will 

refrain from initiating enforcement 

actions against union officers and union 

employees based solely on the failure to 

file the report required by section 202 

using the 2007 form, as long as 

individuals meet their statutorilyrequired filing obligation in some 

manner. The Department will accept a 

report filed on either the pre-2007 Form 

LM–30 or the 2007 form for purposes of 

this enforcement policy. 

This information collection request is 

needed to ensure that filers have both 

options available pending regulatory 

action, and pertains only to the pre-2007 

Form LM–30. This information 

collection is currently approved for use 

through September 30, 2009. The 

Department is seeking an extension of 

this information collection on the pre2007 Form LM–30 through November 

30, 2011. This date is the current 

expiration date for OMB Number 1215– 

0188 (all other reporting and disclosure 

forms). 

II. Review Focus 

The Department of Labor 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 submissions 

of responses. 

III. Current Actions 

The DOL seeks the approval of the 

extension of this information collection 

in order to ensure parties receive 

information required by the LMRDA 

and for the agency to carry out its 

responsibilities under the Act.
