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.

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 PBGC is requesting 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 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.

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 single-employer 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.
