Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 116 / Friday, June 15, 2001 / Notices 32653

The PBGC uses the information it

receives to make determinations

required by ERISA, to identify and

estimate the cash needed for financial

assistance to terminated plans, and to

verify the appropriateness of financial

assistance payments. Plan participants

and beneficiaries use the information to

make personal financial decisions.

The PBGC estimates that plan

sponsors each year give benefit

reduction notices for 1 plan and give

notices of insolvency benefit level and

annual updates, and submit requests for

financial assistance, for 25 plans. Of

those 25 plans, the PBGC estimates that

plan sponsors each year give notices of

insolvency for 3 plans. The estimated

annual burden of the collection of

information is 1 hour and $115,856.

a collection of information contained in

its regulation on Liability for

Termination of Single-Employer Plans,

29 CFR Part 4062 (OMB control number

1212–0017; expires September 30,

2001). This notice informs the public of

the PBGC’s intent and solicits public

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

4062 of the Employee Retirement

Income Security Act of 1974 provides

that the contributing sponsor of a singleemployer pension plan and members of

the sponsor’s controlled group (‘‘the

employer’’) incur liability (‘‘employer

liability’’) if the plan terminates with

assets insufficient to pay benefit

liabilities under the plan. The PBGC’s

statutory lien for employer liability and

the payment terms for employer liability

are affected by whether and to what

extent employer liability exceeds 30

percent of the employer’s net worth.

Section 4062.6 of the PBGC’s

employer liability regulation (29 CFR

4062.6) requires a contributing sponsor

or member of the contributing sponsor’s

controlled group who believes employer

liability upon plan termination exceeds

30 percent of the employer’s net worth

to so notify the PBGC and to submit net

worth information. This information is

necessary to enable the PBGC to

determine whether and to what extent

employer liability exceeds 30 percent of

the employer’s net worth.

The collection of information under

the regulation has been approved by

OMB under control number 1212–0017

through September 30, 2001. The PBGC

intends to request that OMB extend its

approval for another three years. An

agency may not conduct or sponsor, and

a person is not required to respond to,

a collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid OMB control

number.

The PBGC estimates that an average of

6 contributing sponsors or controlled

group members per year will respond to

this collection of information. The

PBGC further estimates that the average

annual burden of this collection of

information will be 12 hours and $2,400

per respondent, with an average total

annual burden of 72 hours and $14,400.

The PBGC is soliciting public

comments to—

• Evaluate whether the 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

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.
