§ 1651.3 Designation of beneficiary. 

* * * * * 

(b) * * * A participant may designate 

a custodian under the Uniform 

Transfers to Minors Act provided that 

the custodianship is established under 

the laws of the District of Columbia and 

that the participant designates the 

custodianship using the Agency’s 

designation of beneficiary form. 

(c) Validity requirements. To be valid 

and accepted by the TSP record keeper, 

a TSP designation of beneficiary form 

must: 

(1) Be received by the TSP record 

keeper on or before the date of the 

participant’s death; 

(2) Identify the participant in such a 

manner so that the Agency can locate 

his or her TSP account; 

(3) Be signed and properly dated by 

the participant and signed and properly 

dated by two witnesses; 

(i) The participant must either sign 

the form in the presence of the 

witnesses or acknowledge his or her 

signature on the form to the witnesses; 

(ii) All submitted and attached pages 

must be signed by the participant, dated 

by the participant, and witnessed in the 

same manner (by the same witnesses) as 

the form itself and must follow the 

format of the TSP designation of 

beneficiary form; 

(iii) A witness must be age 21 or 

older; and 

(iv) A witness designated as a 

beneficiary will not be entitled to 

receive a death benefit payment. If a 

witness is the only named beneficiary, 

the designation of the beneficiary is 

invalid. If more than one beneficiary is 

named, the share of the witness 

beneficiary will be allocated among the 

remaining beneficiaries pro rata. 

(4) Designate primary beneficiary 

shares which when summed equal 

100%; 

(5) Contain no substantive alterations 

(e.g., struck-through shares or scratchedout names of beneficiaries); 

(6) Designate each primary and each 

contingent beneficiary in such a manner 

so that the Agency can identify the 

individual or entity; and 

(7) Match each contingent beneficiary 

to a primary beneficiary. 

* * * * * 

5. Amend § 1651.12, by revising the 

second sentence to read as follows: 

§ 1651.12 Homicide. 

* * * If the beneficiary is implicated 

in the death of the participant and the 

beneficiary would be precluded from 

inheriting under State law, the 

beneficiary will not be entitled to 

receive any portion of the participant’s 

account. * * * 

6. Amend § 1651.17, by revising 

paragraph (b)(2) to read as follows: 

§ 1651.17 Disclaimer of benefits. 

* * * * * 

(b) * * * 

(2) Signed or acknowledged, in the 

presence of a notary, by the person (or 

legal representative) disclaiming the

Federal Register announcing a public 

meeting and the availability of a 

framework document as a first step in 

the rulemaking process to consider 

energy conservation standards for

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 117 / Friday, June 18, 2010 / Proposed Rules 34657 

period to allow additional time for the 

preparation of their comments. DOE has 

determined that a brief extension of the 

public comment period is appropriate to 

allow stakeholders additional time to 

submit comments to DOE for 

consideration as the proposed rule is 

developed. DOE will consider any 

comments received by July 9, 2010 and 

deems any comments received between 

publication of the Federal Register 

notice and July 9, 2010 to be timely 

submitted. 

Further Information on Submitting 

Comments 

Under 10 CFR 1004.11, any person 

submitting information that he or she 

believes to be confidential and exempt 

by law from public disclosure should 

submit two copies: one copy of the 

document including all the information 

believed to be confidential, and one 

copy of the document with the 

information believed to be confidential 

deleted. DOE will make its own 

determination about the confidential 

status of the information and treat it 

according to its determination. 

Factors of interest to DOE when 

evaluating requests to treat submitted 

information as confidential include (1) a 

description of the items, (2) whether 

and why such items are customarily 

treated as confidential within the 

industry, (3) whether the information is 

generally known by or available from 

other sources, (4) whether the 

information has previously been made 

available to others without obligation 

concerning its confidentiality, (5) an 

explanation of the competitive injury to 

the submitting person which would 

result from public disclosure, (6) when 

such information might lose its 

confidential character due to the 

passage of time, and (7) why disclosure 

of the information would be contrary to 

the public interest.
