ext. 6779.)
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Pension Protection Act of 2006 (Pub. L.
109–280) (PPA) requires the actuary of
a multiemployer plan in effect on July
16, 2006 to certify the plan’s status
within certain zones established under
PPA to the plan’s trustees and the
Secretary of the Treasury within 90 days
after the beginning of each plan year.
The certification must state whether or
not the plan meets any of the tests to be
in critical status or endangered status
and for a plan already in critical or
endangered status, whether the plan is
progressing as scheduled toward the
applicable statutory target for improved
funding. Plans in endangered and
critical status are restricted with respect
to the types of actions they may take
and the types of amendments they may
adopt, as well as required to follow
special rules during the adoption period
of collective bargaining agreements.
PBGC is researching the effects of
potential changes to its multiemployer
program. PBGC’s objective is to quantify
the effect of potential policy proposals
on multiemployer plans that are or
could enter critical status with respect
to projected dates of insolvency, amount
of financial assistance that PBGC would
be required to provide, and the benefit
changes plan participants would
experience. To assist in this research
PBGC intends to request that OMB
approve a survey of multiemployer
pension plans, their actuarial service
providers, and their stakeholders,
including unions and relevant
professional and trade organizations.
PBGC would request the following
types of information:
• The most recent actuarial valuation
report.
• The most recent cash flow
projections that the plan actuary
developed in connection with the plan’s
rehabilitation plan annual update and a
summary of the actuarial assumptions
utilized in the projections.
VerDate Mar<15>2010
14:52 May 02, 2013
Jkt 229001
• Participant census data, including
accrued benefit, date of birth, date
credited service began (for both active
and inactive participants, if available),
gender, form of payment and other data
for participants in pay status, and any
plan specific data needed to replicate
actuarial valuation results.
PBGC believes the data requested
would be readily available and there
would be no need to assemble new
information. PBGC would not ask for
any personally identifiable information
(such as name, address, social security
number, etc.) in the participant census
data.
This information collection would be
voluntary on the part of respondents
and any information provided in
response to this request would not be
used for any PBGC enforcement
activities. Instead, such information will
be used only for research into policy
alternatives and would be subject to
PBGC’s standard confidentiality
agreement. The names of the plans
submitting data in support of PBGC’s
research would not appear in any report
distributed outside of PBGC.
PBGC intends to request that OMB
approve 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 between 40 to 50
plans would respond to this collection
of information. PBGC further estimates
that the average burden of this
collection of information would be four
hours and $1,280 per plan, with an
average total burden of 180 hours and
$57,600.
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 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.
