Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 39 / Monday, March 2, 2009 / Notices 9113 

South Carolina (located approximately 2 

miles from the proposed VCSNS Units 

2 and 3) requested an extension of the 

scoping period. NRC staff has concluded 

that Mayor Ginyard’s reasonable 

request, coupled with comments 

provided during the scoping meetings, 

amounts to a special circumstance that 

warrants an extension of the scoping 

period. 

The purpose of this notice is to inform 

the public that the NRC is extending the 

current scoping period by 30 days. 

Members of the public may send written 

comments on the scope of the VCSNS 

COLs environmental review to the 

Chief, Rulemaking, Directives and 

Editing Branch, Office of 

Administration, Mailstop TWB–05– 

B01M, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission, Washington, DC 20555– 

0001, and should cite the publication 

date and page number of this Federal 

Register notice. To ensure that 

comments will be considered, written 

comments must be postmarked by April 

6, 2009. Electronic comments may be 

sent by e-mail to the NRC at 

Summer.COLEIS@nrc.gov. Electronic 

submissions must be sent no later than 

April 6, 2009, to ensure that they will 

be considered. 

Information about the proposed 

action, the EIS, and the scoping process 

may be obtained from Ms. Patricia 

Vokoun or Mr. Paul Michalak at 1–800–

PENSION BENEFIT GUARANTY 

CORPORATION 

Pendency of Request for Approval of 

Special Withdrawal Liability Rules; 

Service Employees International Union 

Local 1 Pension Trust Fund 

AGENCY: Pension Benefit Guaranty 

Corporation. 

ACTION: Notice of pendency of request. 

SUMMARY: The Pension Benefit Guaranty 

Corporation (‘‘PBGC’’) has received a 

request from the Service Employees 

International Union Local 1 Pension 

Trust Fund for approval of a plan 

amendment providing for special 

withdrawal liability rules. Under 

section 4203(f) of the Employee 

Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 

and the PBGC’s regulation on Extension 

of Special Withdrawal Liability Rules, a 

multiemployer pension plan may, with 

PBGC approval, be amended to provide 

for special withdrawal liability rules 

similar to those that apply to the 

construction and entertainment 

industries. Such approval is granted 

only if the PBGC determines that the 

plan amendment will be used in an 

industry with characteristics that would 

make use of the special rules 

appropriate and that the plan 

amendment would not pose a 

significant risk to the PBGC. This notice 

advises interested persons of the 

pendency of this request and invites 

public comment. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted by 

April 16, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to 

the Office of the Chief Counsel, Pension 

Benefit Guaranty Corporation, 1200 K 

Street, NW., Washington, DC 20005– 

4026, or delivered to Suite 340 at the 

above address. Comments also may be 

submitted electronically through the 

PBGC’s Web site at http:// 

reg.comments@pbgc.gov or by fax to 

202–326–4112. Copies of the request for 

approval and any comments may be 

obtained by writing to the PBGC’s 

Communications and Public Affairs 

Department at Suite 1200 at the above 

address or by visiting that office or 

calling 202–326–4040 during normal 

business hours. (TTY and TDD users 

may call the Federal relay service tollfree at 1–800–877–8339 and ask to be

CFR part 4203) and of the originating 

request for approval may be accessed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Under section 4203(a) of ERISA, a 

complete withdrawal from a 

multiemployer plan generally occurs 

when an employer permanently ceases 

to have an obligation to contribute 

under the plan or permanently ceases 

all covered operations under the plan. 

Under section 4205 of ERISA, a partial 

withdrawal generally occurs when an 

employer (1) Reduces its contribution 

base units by seventy percent in each of 

three consecutive years, or (2) 

permanently ceases to have an 

obligation to contribute under one or 

more but fewer than all collective 

bargaining agreements under which the 

employer has been obligated to 

contribute under the plan, while either 

continuing to perform work in the 

jurisdiction of the collective bargaining 

agreement of the type for which 

contributions were previously required 

or transferring such work to another 

location or to an entity or entities 

owned or controlled by the employer, or 

(3) permanently ceases to have an 

obligation to contribute under the plan 

for work performed at one or more but 

fewer than all of its facilities, while 

continuing to perform work at the 

facility of the type for which the 

obligation to contribute ceased. 

Although the general rules on 

complete and partial withdrawal are 

based on events that normally result in 

a diminution of the plan’s contribution 

base, Congress recognized that, in 

certain industries and under certain 

circumstances, a complete or partial 

cessation of the obligation to contribute
