SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Sections 4041 and 4042 of the Employee 
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (``ERISA''), 29 
U.S.C. 1301-1461, govern the termination of single-employer defined 
benefit pension plans that are subject to Title IV of ERISA. A plan 
administrator may initiate a distress termination pursuant to section 
4041(c), and PBGC may itself initiate proceedings to terminate a 
pension plan under section 4042 if PBGC determines that certain 
conditions are present. Section 506 of the Pension Protection Act of 
2006 (Pub. L. 109-280) amended sections 4041 and 4042 of ERISA. These 
amendments require that, upon a request by an affected party, a plan 
administrator must disclose information it has submitted to PBGC in 
connection with a distress termination filing, and that a plan 
administrator or plan sponsor must disclose information it has 
submitted to PBGC in connection with a PBGC-initiated termination. The 
provisions also require PBGC to disclose the administrative record 
relating to a PBGC-initiated termination upon request by an affected 
party. The new provisions are applicable to terminations initiated on 
or after August 17, 2006. On November 18, 2008 (at 73 FR 68333, PBGC 
amended its regulations to implement the PPA 2006 provisions.
    A description of the current disclosure provisions for distress 
terminations can be found on PBGC's Web site at https://www.pbgc.gov/Documents/Disclosure_of_Distress_Termination_Information.pdf. A 
description of the disclosure provisions for PBGC-initiated 
terminations is attached to each notice of determination that PBGC 
issues that a plan should be terminated under section 4042 of ERISA.
    Based on its experience and information from practitioners, PBGC 
estimates that three participants or other affected parties will 
annually make requests for termination information. PBGC estimates that 
the total annual burden for the collection of information will be about 
45 hours and $900 (15 hours and $300 per request).
    PBGC is soliciting public comments to--
     Evaluate whether the 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 collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology 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 the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
