Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Current Population Survey (CPS) 

Volunteer Supplement information 

collection, which provides information 

on the total number of individuals in 

the United States involved in unpaid 

volunteer activities, the frequency and 

intensity with which individuals 

volunteer, types of organizations for 

which they volunteer, the activities in 

which volunteers participate, and the 

prevalence of volunteering more than 

120 miles from home or volunteering 

abroad. The Supplement also provides 

information on civic engagement and 

charitable donations. This information 

collection is authorized by 29 U.S.C. 2. 

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 1220–0176. 

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 

August 31, 2014. The DOL seeks to 

extend PRA authorization for this 

information collection for three (3) more 

years, without any change to existing 

requirements. The DOL notes that 

existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional substantive information 

about this ICR, see the related notice 

published in the Federal Register on 

February 24, 2014. 

Interested parties are encouraged to 

send comments to the OMB, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs at 

the address shown in the ADDRESSES

section within 30 days of publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register. In 

order to help ensure appropriate 

consideration, comments should 

mention OMB Control Number 1220– 

0176. 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.

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

information collection requirements 

contained in Employee Retirement 

Income Security Act (ERISA) Prohibited 

Transaction Class Exemption (PTE) 

1981–8, Investment of Plan Assets in 

Certain Types of Short-Term 

Investments, which permits the 

investment of ERISA covered plan 

assets that involve the purchase or other 

acquisition, holding, sale, exchange, or 

redemption by or on behalf of an 

employee benefit plan of certain types 

of short-term investments. The PTE 

requires two basic disclosure 

requirements. Both affect only the 

portion of the exemption dealing with 

repurchase agreements. The first 

requirement calls for the repurchase 

agreements between the seller and the 

plan to be in writing. The repurchase 

agreements have a duration of one year 

or less and may be in the form of a 

blanket agreement that covers the 

transactions for the year. The written 

agreement is intended to put the plan on 

notice of possible fees associated with 

the redemption of open-end mutual 

fund shares. The second requirement 

obliges the seller of such repurchase 

agreements to provide the most recent 

financial statements to the plan at the 

time of the sale and as the statements 

are issued. The seller must also 

represent, either in the repurchase 

agreement or prior to each repurchase 

agreement transaction, that, as of the 

time the transaction is negotiated, there 

has been no material adverse change in 

the seller’s financial condition since the 

date the most recent financial statement 

was furnished that has not been 

disclosed to the plan fiduciary with 

whom the written agreement is made. 

The Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and 

ERISA authorize the information 

collection activities. See 26 U.S.C. 

4975(c) and 29 U.S.C. 1108. 

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 1210–0061. 

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 

June 30, 2014. The DOL seeks to extend 

PRA authorization for this information 

collection for three (3) more years, 

without any change to existing 

requirements. The DOL notes that 

existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional substantive information 

about this ICR, see the related notice 

published in the Federal Register on 

November 29, 2013 (78 FR 71668). 

Interested parties are encouraged to 

send comments to the OMB, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs at
