be at least as favorable to the Plan as

those obtainable in an arm’s length

transaction with an unrelated third

party; (b) the Sale would be a one-time

cash transaction allowing the Plan to

divest itself of the Property and reinvest

the proceeds of the Sale in assets that

will yield a higher rate of return; (c) the

Plan would receive an amount equal to

the greater of $450,000, which

represents the appraised fair market

value of the Property, as appraised by

Mr. Leach in September 2000, or the fair

market value of the Property at the time

of the Sale, based on an updated

appraisal of the Property by Mr. Leach

or another independent, qualified

appraisal; and (d) the Plan would not be

required to pay any commissions, costs

or other expenses in connection with

the Plan.

Notice to Interested Parties: Because

Mr. Gillespie is the sole shareholder of

the Employer and he and his wife, Ann

Gillespie, are the only participants in

the Plan, it has been determined that

there is no need to distribute the notice

of proposed exemption (the Notice) to

interested persons. Comments and

requests for a hearing are due thirty (30)

days after publication of the Notice in

the Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Khalif Ford of the Department,

telephone (202) 219–8883 (this is not a

toll-free number).

General Information

The attention of interested persons is

directed to the following:

(1) The fact that a transaction is the

subject of an exemption under section

408(a) of the Act and/or section

4975(c)(2) of the Code does not relieve

a fiduciary or other party in interest or

disqualified person from certain other

provisions of the Act and/or the Code,

including any prohibited transaction

provisions to which the exemption does

not apply and the general fiduciary

responsibility provisions of section 404

of the Act, which, among other things,

require a fiduciary to discharge his

duties respecting the plan solely in the

interest of the participants and

beneficiaries of the plan and in a

prudent fashion in accordance with

section 404(a)(1)(b) of the Act; nor does

it affect the requirement of section

401(a) of the Code that the plan must

operate for the exclusive benefit of the

employees of the employer maintaining

the plan and their beneficiaries;

(2) Before an exemption may be

granted under section 408(a) of the Act

and/or section 4975(c)(2) of the Code,

the Department must find that the

exemption is administratively feasible,

in the interests of the plan and of its

participants and beneficiaries, and

protective of the rights of participants

and beneficiaries of the plan;

(3) The proposed exemptions, if

granted, will be supplemental to, and

not in derogation of, any other

provisions of the Act and/or the Code,

including statutory or administrative

exemptions and transitional rules.

Furthermore, the fact that a transaction

is subject to an administrative or

statutory exemption is not dispositive of

whether the transaction is in fact a

prohibited transaction; and

(4) The proposed exemptions, if

granted, will be subject to the express

condition that the material facts and

representations contained in each

application are true and complete, and

that each application accurately

describes all material terms of the

transaction which is the subject of the

exemption.

Signed at Washington, DC, this 25th day of

October 2000.

Director of Exemption Determinations,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On August 11, 2000, President

Clinton issued Executive Order 13166,

entitled ‘‘Improving Access to Services

for Persons With Limited English

Proficiency.’’ 65 FR 50119 (August 16,

2000). The Executive Order directs each

Federal agency to examine the services

it provides to persons who, as a result

of national origin, are limited in their

English proficiency. Agencies must then

develop a plan and implement measures

that will enable persons with LEP to

have meaningful access to the agency’s

programs and activities, consistent with

the fundamental mission of the agency.

NARA will submit its LEP plan to the

Department of Justice for review and

approval by December 11, 2000.

As part of this process, NARA is

consulting its stakeholders for input on

the needs of persons with LEP. NARA

is requesting comment from persons

with LEP, their representative

organizations, as well as grant

applicants and recipients, and any other

individuals or entities that make use of

NARA programs, facilities, activities

and financial opportunities.

NARA’s Programs and Activities

NARA establishes policies and

procedures for managing U.S.

Government records and assists Federal

agencies in documenting their activities

and administering records management

programs. NARA preserves and

provides access to the essential

documentation of the three branches of

Government through a nationwide

system of archival facilities, records

storage facilities, and Presidential

Libraries. NARA operates research

rooms, answers written and oral

requests for information on its holdings,

provides copies of records, offers public

programs and exhibits, and makes

information available on its web site at

http://www.nara.gov. The National

Historical Publications and Records

Commission (NHPRC), a statutory body

affiliated with NARA, makes grants

nationwide to help nonprofit and

educational organizations identify,

preserve, and provide access to

materials that document American

history. NARA also publishes Federal

laws and regulations, and Presidential

and other public documents. It also

Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 211 / Tuesday, October 31, 2000 / Notices 65017

manages Federal classification and

declassification policies.

Ensuring Meaningful Access to Persons

With Limited English Proficiency

NARA will use the information

gathered from this notice and other

outreach activities to evaluate its

services and develop a plan to ensure

that eligible persons with LEP have

meaningful access to NARA’s programs

and activities, including NHPRC grants.

NARA will assess the language needs of

its customers, develop a comprehensive

written policy on language access,

increase awareness of language needs in

staff training and customer service, and

regularly monitor and assess the

language needs of customers and the

effectiveness of NARA’s language

assistance program. NARA will provide

its LEP customers with access to

NARA’s programs and activities in a

way that is practical, effective, fiscally

responsible, and capable of being

readily implemented.
