SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PBGC’s regulation on Rules for Administrative Review of Agency Decisions (29 CFR part 4003) prescribes rules governing the issuance of initial determinations by PBGC and the procedures for requesting and obtaining administrative review of initial determinations. Certain types of initial determinations are subject to administrative appeals, which are covered in subpart D of the regulation. Subpart D prescribes rules on who may file appeals, when and where to file appeals, contents of appeals, and other matters relating to appeals. Most appeals filed with PBGC are filed by individuals (participants, beneficiaries, and alternate payees) in connection with benefit entitlement or amounts. A small number of appeals are filed by employers in connection with other matters, such as plan coverage under ERISA section 4021 or employer liability under ERISA sections 4062(b)(1), 4063, or 4064. Appeals may be filed by hand, mail, commercial delivery service, fax or email. For appeals of benefit determinations, PBGC has optional forms for filing appeals and requests for extensions of time to appeal. OMB has approved the administrative appeals collection of information under control number 1212–0061 through April 30, 2013. PBGC intends to request that OMB extend approval of this collection of information 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. PBGC estimates that an average of 900 appellants per year will respond to this collection of information. PBGC further estimates that the average annual burden of this collection of information is about forty-five minutes and $52 per appellant, with an average total annual burden of 643 hours and $46,680. 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:28 Dec 20, 2012 Jkt 229001 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 through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PBGC's regulation on Rules for 
Administrative Review of Agency Decisions (29 CFR part 4003) prescribes 
rules governing the issuance of initial determinations by PBGC and the 
procedures for requesting and obtaining administrative review of 
initial determinations. Certain types of initial determinations are 
subject to administrative appeals, which are covered in subpart D of 
the regulation. Subpart D prescribes rules on who may file appeals, 
when and where to file appeals, contents of appeals, and other matters 
relating to appeals.
    Most appeals filed with PBGC are filed by individuals 
(participants, beneficiaries, and alternate payees) in connection with 
benefit entitlement or amounts. A small number of appeals are filed by 
employers in connection with other matters, such as plan coverage under 
ERISA section 4021 or employer liability under ERISA sections 
4062(b)(1), 4063, or 4064. Appeals may be filed by hand, mail, 
commercial delivery service, fax or email. For appeals of benefit 
determinations, PBGC has optional forms for filing appeals and requests 
for extensions of time to appeal.
    OMB has approved the administrative appeals collection of 
information under control number 1212-0061 through April 30, 2013. PBGC 
intends to request that OMB extend approval of this collection of 
information 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.
    PBGC estimates that an average of 900 appellants per year will 
respond to this collection of information. PBGC further estimates that 
the average annual burden of this collection of information is about 
forty-five minutes and $52 per appellant, with an average total annual 
burden of 643 hours and $46,680.

     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 through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.
