Revision 2 of RG1.68.1 was issued with a temporary identification as Draft Regulatory Guide, DG–1265. This guide describes the methods that the NRC staff considers acceptable to implement multiple criteria in Appendix A, ‘‘General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants,’’ to Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities, of 10 CFR Part 50,’’ regarding the initial test program (ITP) for condensate and feedwater (FW) systems, including condensate storage and supply, for lightwater reactors (LWRs) and for startup feedwater (SFW), auxiliary feedwater (AFW) or emergency feedwater (EFW) systems for pressurized-water reactors (PWRs). This guide also describes methods that the NRC staff finds acceptable for testing condensate, FW, SFW/AFW/EFW (PWR only) structures, systems, and components (SSCs) in accordance with Subpart B, ‘‘Standard Design Certifications,’’ and Subpart C, ‘‘Combined Licenses,’’ of 10 CFR Part 52, ‘‘Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants.’’ srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES II. Further Information DG–1265, was published in the Federal Register on March 16, 2012 (77 FR 15812), for a 60-day public comment period. The public comment period closed on May 18, 2012. No public comments on DG–1265 were received; therefore no content changes were made during its conversion to a regulatory guide. III. Backfitting and Issue Finality Issuance of this final regulatory guide does not constitute backfitting as defined in 10 CFR 50.109 (the Backfit Rule) and is not otherwise inconsistent with the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR Part 52. As discussed in the ‘‘Implementation’’ section of this regulatory guide, the NRC has no current intention to impose this regulatory guide on holders of current operating licenses or combined licenses. This regulatory guide may be applied to applications for operating licenses and combined licenses docketed by the NRC as of the date of issuance of the final regulatory guide, as well as future applications for operating licenses and combined licenses submitted after the issuance of the regulatory guide. Such action does not constitute backfitting as defined in 10 CRF 50.109(a)(1) or is otherwise inconsistent with the applicable issue finality provision in 10 CFR Part 52, inasmuch as such VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:10 Sep 10, 2012 Jkt 226001 applicants or potential applicants are not within the scope of entities protected by the Backfit Rule or the relevant issue finality provisions in Part 52.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 4007 of Title IV of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) requires pension plans covered SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00086 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 55879 under Title IV pension insurance programs to pay premiums to PBGC. Pursuant to section 4007, PBGC has issued its regulation on Payment of Premiums (29 CFR part 4007). Under § 4007.3 of the premium payment regulation, plan administrators are required to file premium payments and information prescribed by PBGC. Premium information must be filed electronically using ‘‘My Plan Administration Account’’ (‘‘My PAA’’) through PBGC’s Web site except to the extent PBGC grants an exemption for good cause in appropriate circumstances, in which case the information must be filed using an approved PBGC form. The plan administrator of each pension plan covered by Title IV of ERISA is required to submit one or more premium filings for each premium payment year. Under § 4007.10 of the premium payment regulation, plan administrators are required to retain records about premiums and information submitted in premium filings. PBGC needs information from premium filings to identify the plans for which premiums are paid, to verify whether the amounts paid are correct, to help PBGC determine the magnitude of its exposure in the event of plan termination, to help track the creation of new plans and transfer of participants and plan assets and liabilities among plans, and to keep PBGC’s insured-plan inventory up to date. That information and the retained records are also needed for audit purposes. All plans covered by Title IV of ERISA pay a flat-rate per-participant premium. An underfunded singleemployer plan also pays a variable-rate premium based on the value of the plan’s unfunded vested benefits. Large-plan filers (i.e., plans that were required to pay premiums for 500 or more participants for the prior plan year) are required to pay PBGC’s flatrate premium early in the premium payment year. To accommodate plans that find it impractical to do an accurate participant count until later in the premium payment year, PBGC permits filers to make an estimated flat-rate premium filing. All plans are required to make a comprehensive premium filing. Comprehensive filings are used to report flat- and (for single-employer plans) variable-rate premiums, premiumrelated data, and information about plan identity, status, and events. (For large plans, the comprehensive filing reconciles an estimated flat-rate premium paid earlier in the year.) PBGC proposes to revise its premium filing procedures and instructions for E:\FR\FM\11SEN1.SGM 11SEN1
