SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Employee Benefits Security 

Administration (EBSA) has promulgated 

three regulations and a prohibited 

transaction class exemption (PTE) that 

address the problem of abandoned 

individual account pension plans. The 

abandoned plan initiative includes the 

following actions, which impose the 

following information collections: 

1. Qualified Termination 

Administrator (QTA) Regulation: The 

QTA regulation creates an orderly and 

efficient process by which a financial 

institution that holds the assets of a plan 

that is deemed to have been abandoned 

may undertake to terminate the plan 

and distribute its assets to participants 

and beneficiaries holding accounts 

under the plan, with protections and 

approval of the Department under the 

standards of the regulation. The 

regulation requires the QTA to provide 

certain notices to the Department, to 

participants and beneficiaries, and to 

the plan sponsor (or service providers to 

the plan, if necessary), and to keep 

certain records pertaining to the 

termination. 

2. Abandoned Plan Terminal Report 

Regulation: The terminal report 

regulation provides an alternative, 

simplified method for a QTA to satisfy 

the annual report requirement otherwise 

applicable to a terminating plan by 

filing a special simplified terminal 

report with the Department after 

terminating an abandoned plan and 

distributing its accounts to participants 

and beneficiaries. 

3. Terminated Plan Distribution 

Regulation: The terminated plan 

distribution regulation establishes a safe 

harbor method by which fiduciaries 

who are terminating individual account 

pension plans (whether abandoned or 

not) may select an investment vehicle to 

receive account balances distributed 

from the terminated plan when the 

participant has failed to provide 

investment instructions. The regulation 

requires the fiduciaries to provide 

advance notice to participants and 

beneficiaries of how such distributions 

will be invested, if no other investment 

instructions are provided. 

4. Abandoned Plan Class Exemption: 

The exemption permits a QTA that 

terminates an abandoned plan under the 

QTA regulation to receive payment for 

its services from the abandoned plan 

and to distribute the account balance of 

a participant who has failed to provide 

investment direction into an individual 

retirement account (IRA) maintained by 

the QTA or an affiliate. Without the 

exemption, financial institutions could 

be unable to receive payment for 

services rendered out of plan assets 

without violating ERISA’s prohibited 

transaction provisions and would 

therefore be highly unlikely to 

undertake the termination of abandoned 

plans. The exemption includes the 

condition that the QTA keep records of 

the distributions for a period of six years 

and make such records available on 

request to interested persons (including 

the Department and participants and 

beneficiaries). If a QTA wishes to be 

paid out of plan assets for services 

provided prior to becoming a QTA, the 

exemption requires that the QTA enter 

into a written agreement with a plan 

fiduciary or the plan sponsor prior to 

receiving payment and that a copy of 

the agreement be provided to the 

Department. 

5. PTE 2004–16 (Automatic Rollover 

Exemption): Also included in this ICR 

are the notice and recordkeeping 

requirements contained in PTE 2004– 

16, which permits a pension plan 

fiduciary that is a financial institution 

and is also the employer maintaining an 

individual account pension plan for its 

employees to establish, on behalf of its 

separated employees, an IRA at a 

financial institution that is either the 

employer or an affiliate, which IRA 

would receive mandatory distributions 

that the fiduciary ‘‘rolls over’’ from the 

plan when an employee terminates 

employment. 

Because all of these regulations and 

exemptions relate to terminating or 

abandoned plans and/or to distribution 

and rollover of distributed benefits for 

which no participant investment 

election has been made, the Department 

has combined the paperwork burden for 

all of these actions into one ICR. In the 

Department’s view, this combination 

allows the public to have a better 

understanding of the aggregate burden 

imposed on the public for these related 

regulatory actions. OMB approved the 

ICR under OMB control number 1210– 

0127, which is scheduled to expire on 

June 30, 2009. 

II. Desired Focus of Comments 

The Department is particularly 

interested in comments that: 

• Evaluate whether the collections of 

information are 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 

collections 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., by permitting electronic submission 

of responses. 

III. Current Action 

The Department is requesting an 

extension of the currently approved ICR 

titled Termination of Abandoned 

Individual Account Plans. The 

Department is not proposing or 

implementing changes to the regulation 

or to the existing ICR. A summary of the 

ICR and the current burden estimates 

follows: 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection of 

information. 

Agency: Employee Benefits Security 

Administration, Department of Labor. 

Title: Termination of Abandoned 

Individual Account Plans. 

OMB Number: 1210–0127. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households; Business or other for-profit; 

Not-for-profit institutions. 

Respondents: 164,240. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Responses: 164,240. 

Estimated Total Burden Hours: 7,313. 

Total Annual Cost (Operating and 

Maintenance): $997,000. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice will be summarized and/or 

included in the request for OMB 

approval of the information collection 

request; they will also become a matter 

of public record.
