Download as PDF 67932 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 226 / Friday, November 24, 2006 / Notices cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES storage of SGI–M. Word processors such as typewriters are not subject to the requirements as long as they do not transmit information off-site. (Note: if SGI–M is produced on a typewriter, the ribbon must be removed and stored in the same manner as other SGI–M information or media.) The basic objective of these restrictions is to prevent access and retrieval of stored SGI–M by unauthorized individuals, particularly from remote terminals. Specific files containing SGI–M will be password protected to preclude access by an unauthorized individual. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) maintains a listing of all validated encryption systems at https://csrc.nist.gov/cryptval/140–1/ 1401val.htm. SGI–M files may be transmitted over a network if the file is encrypted. In such cases, the licensee will select a commercially available encryption system that NIST has validated as conforming to Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). SGI–M files shall be properly labeled as ‘‘Safeguards Information— Modified Handling’’ and saved to removable media and stored in a locked file drawer or cabinet. Telecommunications SGI–M may not be transmitted by unprotected telecommunications circuits except under emergency or extraordinary conditions. For the purpose of this requirement, emergency or extraordinary conditions are defined as any circumstances that require immediate communications in order to report, summon assistance for, or respond to a security event (or an event that has potential security significance). This restriction applies to telephone, telegraph, teletype, facsimile circuits, and to radio. Routine telephone or radio transmission between site security personnel, or between the site and local police, should be limited to message formats or codes that do not disclose facility security features or response procedures. Similarly, call-ins during transport should not disclose information useful to a potential adversary. Infrequent or non-repetitive telephone conversations regarding a physical security plan or program are permitted provided that the discussion is general in nature. Individuals should use care when discussing SGI–M at meetings or in the presence of others to insure that the conversation is not overheard by persons not authorized access. Transcripts, tapes or minutes of meetings or hearings that contain SGI– M shall be marked and protected in accordance with these requirements. VerDate Aug<31>2005 13:24 Nov 22, 2006 Jkt 211001 Destruction Documents containing SGI–M should be destroyed when no longer needed. They may be destroyed by tearing into small pieces, burning, shredding or any other method that precludes reconstruction by means available to the public at large. Piece sizes one half inch or smaller composed of several pages or documents and thoroughly mixed would be considered completely destroyed. Attachment 2: Trustworthiness and Reliability Requirements for Individuals Handling Safeguards Information Trustworthiness and Reliability Requirements for Individuals Handling Safeguards Information In order to ensure the safe handling, use, and control of information designated as Safeguards Information, each licensee shall control and limit access to the information to only those individuals who have established the need-to-know the information, and are considered to be trustworthy and reliable. Licensees shall document the basis for concluding that there is reasonable assurance that individuals granted access to Safeguards Information are trustworthy and reliable, and do not constitute an unreasonable risk for malevolent use of the information. The Licensee shall comply with the requirements of this attachment: 1. The trustworthiness and reliability of an individual shall be determined based on a background investigation: (a) The background investigation shall address at least the past three (3) years, and, at a minimum, include verification of employment, education, and personal references. The licensee shall also, to the extent possible, obtain independent information to corroborate that provided by the employee (i.e., seeking references not supplied by the individual). (b) If an individual’s employment has been less than the required three (3) year period, educational references may be used in lieu of employment history. The licensee’s background investigation requirements may be satisfied for an individual that has an active Federal security clearance. 2. The licensee shall retain documentation regarding the trustworthiness and reliability of individual employees for three years after the individual’s employment ends. [FR Doc.

AGENCY: SUMMARY: 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 in its regulation on Disclosure to Participants (29 CFR Part 4011) (OMB control number 1212–0050). This notice informs the public of the PBGC’s request and solicits public comment on the collection of information. DATES: Comments should be submitted by December 26, 2006. ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs of the Office of Management and Budget, Attention: Desk Officer for Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, Washington, DC 20503.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 4011 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 requires plan administrators of certain underfunded single-employer pension plans to provide an annual notice to plan participants and beneficiaries of the plan’s funding status and the limits on the PBGC’s guarantee.

The notice provides recipients with meaningful, understandable, and timely information that will help them become better informed about their plans and assist them in their financial planning. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 repealed section 4011 of ERISA for plan years starting after 2006. However, plan administrators of non-calendar year plans required to provide a Participant Notice for the 2006 plan year will, in most cases, provide those notices in calendar year 2007. In addition, PBGC expects that during the next three years a small number of plan administrators will issue late or corrected Participant Notices for 2006 or earlier plan years. The collection of information under the regulation has been approved by OMB under control number 1212–0050 (expires December 31, 2006). The PBGC is requesting that OMB extend its approval for 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 764 Participant Notices per year will be filed by plan administrators in response to this collection of information. PBGC further estimates that the average annual burden of this collection of information on respondents is 1.38 hours and $380 per plan, with an average total annual burden of 1,057 hours and $290,675.

L. 104–13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) intends to submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for extension of a currently approved information collection. Section 837.103 of Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations, requires agencies to collect information from retirees who become employed in Government positions. Agencies need to collect timely information regarding the type and amount of annuity being received so the correct rate of pay can be determined. Agencies provide this information to OPM so a determination can be made whether the reemployed retiree’s annuity must be terminated. Comments are particularly invited on: whether this collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of functions of the Office of Personnel Management, and whether it will have practical utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Approximately 3,000 reemployed retirees are asked this information annually. It takes each reemployed retiree approximately 5 minutes to provide the information for an annual estimated burden of 250 hours. For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on (202) 606– 8358, FAX (202) 418–3251 or via e-mail to MaryBeth.Smith-Toomey@opm.gov. Please include a mailing address with your request.

    The Pension Protection Act of 2006 repealed section 4011 of ERISA

a currently valid OMB control number.
    The PBGC estimates that an average of 764 Participant Notices per 
year will be filed by plan administrators in response to this 
collection of information. PBGC further estimates that the average 
annual burden of this collection of information on respondents is 1.38 
hours and $380 per plan, with an average total annual burden of 1,057 
hours and $290,675.
