Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 89 / Monday, May 9, 2022 / Notices 27667 

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. 

PBGC estimates that, over the next 3 

years, 5 forms in this series will be 

submitted each year. PBGC estimates 

that these forms would be completed by 

a combination of plan office staff and 

outside professionals: Attorneys and 

actuaries. PBGC estimates a total annual 

hour burden of 38.5 hours. PBGC 

estimates a total annual cost burden of 

$39,415. 

PBGC is soliciting public comments 

to— 

• 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 

methodologies 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation 

(PBGC) is requesting that the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) extend 

approval, under the Paperwork 

Reduction Act, of a collection of 

information that filers use to request 

that PBGC determine whether a defined 

benefit pension plan is covered under 

title IV of the Employee Retirement 

Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). 

(OMB control number 1212–0072; 

expires June 30, 2022). This notice 

informs the public of PBGC’s intent and 

solicits public comment on the 

collection of information. 

A plan is covered under title IV, and 

thereby insured by PBGC, if it is 

described in section 4021(a) of ERISA 

and does not meet one of the 

exemptions from coverage listed in 

section 4021(b)(1)–(13). If a question 

arises about whether a plan is covered 

under title IV, a plan may submit the 

Request for Coverage Determination 

form to PBGC. 

The Request for Coverage 

Determination form and corresponding 

instructions are suitable for all types of 

requests, but they highlight the four 

plan types for which coverage 

determinations are most frequently 

requested: (1) Church plans as listed in 

section 4021(b)(3) of ERISA; (2) plans 

that are established and maintained 

exclusively for the benefit of plan 

sponsors’ substantial owners as listed in 

section 4021(b)(9); (3) plans covering, 

since September 2, 1974, no more than 

25 active participants that are 

established and maintained by 

professional services employers as listed 

in section 4021(b)(13); and (4) Puerto 

Rico-based plans within the meaning of 

section 1022(i)(1) of ERISA. PBGC needs 

the information requested to determine 

whether a plan is covered or not 

covered under title IV of ERISA. 

PBGC intends to make editorial and 

formatting changes to question 1 and 2 

of Part II of the form. These revisions are 

intended to provide greater clarity to 

filers. In addition, PBGC plans to add a 

new question to Part II inquiring about 

the number of eligible participants with 

no accrued benefit. This addition is 

intended to garner a more accurate 

count of a plan’s participants. Finally, 

PBGC plans to amend Question 4 of Part 

III applicable to a plan seeking a 

determination as a substantial owners 

plan. Under the amendment, a plan will 

need to provide the dates when 

participants separated from service, in 

addition to dates and amounts of 

payment to them. This addition is 

intended to allow PBGC to properly 

count payees who may still be 

participants in a plan even after 

distributions have occurred. 

The collection of information has 

been approved under OMB control 

number 1212–0072 (expires June 31, 

2022). On March 1, 2022, PBGC 

published in the Federal Register (at 87 

FR 11492) a notice informing the public 

of its intent to request approval of the 

revised collection of information. PBGC 

did not receive any comments. 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. 

PBGC estimates that each year there 

will be 310 Request for Coverage 

Determination forms submitted to 

PBGC. PBGC further estimates the 

average hour burden is 1.5 hours and 

average cost burden is $300. The total 

estimated annual burden of the 

collection of information is 465 hours 

and $93,000

Extension: 

Rule 17a–7 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (‘‘PRA’’), the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments 

on the existing collection of information 

provided for in Rule 17a–7 (17 CFR 

240.17a–7) under the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et 

seq.) (‘‘Exchange Act’’). The 

Commission plans to submit this 

existing collection of information to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(‘‘OMB’’) for extension and approval. 

Rule 17a–7 requires a non-resident 

broker-dealer (generally, a broker-dealer 

with its principal place of business in a 

place not subject to the jurisdiction of 

the United States) registered or applying 

for registration pursuant to Section 15 of 

the Exchange Act to maintain—in the 

United States—complete and current 

copies of books and records required to 

be maintained under any rule adopted 

under the Exchange Act and furnish to 

the Commission a written notice 

specifying the address where the copies 

are located. Alternatively, Rule 17a–7 

provides that non-resident brokerdealers may file with the Commission a 

written undertaking to furnish the 

requisite books and records to the 

Commission upon demand within 14 

days of the demand. 

There are approximately 30 nonresident brokers and dealers. Based on 

the Commission’s experience, the 

Commission estimates that the average 

amount of time necessary to comply 

with Rule 17a–7 is one hour per year. 

Accordingly, the total industry-wide 

reporting burden is approximately 30 

hours per year. Assuming an average 

cost per hour of approximately $319 for 

a compliance manager, the total internal
