(For TTY/TDD users, call the Federal relay service toll-free at 1–800– 877–8339 and ask to be connected to 202–326–4024.) SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 303(k) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (‘‘ERISA’’) and section 430(k) 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 contribution 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), PO 00000 Frm 00069 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 exceeds $1 million. (For this purpose, a plan is underfunded if its funding target attainment 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. 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 The form and instructions have been revised to remove information that is no longer applicable in light of changes made by the Pension Protection Act of 2006 and to refer to interim guidance issued by PBGC. The collection of information under the regulation has been approved through February 28, 2009, by OMB under control number 1212–0041. The PBGC intends to request that OMB extend approval (with modifications) 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 185 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 873 hours and $305,550. The 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 E:\FR\FM\21NON1.SGM 21NON1
