SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

302(f) of the Employee Retirement 

Income Security Act of 1974 (‘‘ERISA’’) 

and section 412(n) of the Internal 

Revenue Code of 1986 (‘‘Code’’) impose 

a lien in favor of an underfunded singleemployer plan that is covered by the 

termination insurance program if (1) any 

person fails to make a required payment 

when due, and (2) the unpaid balance 

of that payment (including interest), 

when added to the aggregate unpaid 

balance of all preceding payments for 

which payment was not made when due 

(including interest), exceeds $1 million. 

(For this purpose, a plan is underfunded 

if its funded current liability percentage 

is less than 100 percent.) The lien is 

upon all property and rights to property 

belonging to the person or persons who 

are liable for required contributions (i.e., 

a contributing sponsor and each 

member of the controlled group of 

which that contributing sponsor is a 

member). 

Only the PBGC (or, at its direction, 

the plan’s contributing sponsor or a 

member of the same controlled group) 

may perfect and enforce this lien. 

Therefore, ERISA and the Code require 

persons committing payment failures to 

notify the PBGC within 10 days of the 

due date whenever there is a failure to 

make a required payment and the total 

of the unpaid balances (including 

interest) exceeds $1 million. 

PBGC Form 200, Notice of Failure to 

Make Required Contributions, and 

related filing instructions, implement 

the statutory notification requirement. 

Submission of Form 200 is required by 

29 CFR 4043.81. 

The collection of information under 

the regulation has been approved 

through January 31, 2006, by OMB 

under control number 1212–0041. The 

PBGC intends to request that OMB 

extend 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 it will 

receive 78 Form 200 filings per year 

under this collection of information. 

The PBGC further estimates that the 

average annual burden of this collection 

of information is 160.5 hours and 

$44,132. 

The PBGC is soliciting public 

comments to—

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

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 

proposed collections 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 

collections 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: Section 

4043 of the Employee Retirement 

Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) 

requires plan administrators and plan 

sponsors to report certain plan and 

corporate events to the PBGC. The 

reporting requirements give the PBGC 

timely notice of events that indicate 

plan or employer financial problems. 

The PBGC uses the information 

provided in determining what, if any, 

action it needs to take. For example, the 

PBGC might need to institute 

proceedings to terminate the plan 

(placing it in trusteeship) under section 

4042 of ERISA to ensure the continued 

payment of benefits to plan participants 

and their beneficiaries or to prevent 

unreasonable increases in its losses. 

The collection of information under 

the regulation has been approved 

through January 31, 2006, by OMB 

under control number 1212–0013. The 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 193 / Thursday, October 6, 2005 / Notices 58493 

PBGC intends to request that OMB 

extend 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 it will 

receive 705 reportable events per year 

under this collection of information. 

The PBGC further estimates that the 

average annual burden of this collection 

of information is 2,974 hours and 

$817,850. 

The PBGC is soliciting public 

comments to—

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collections of information are necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility;
