Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 33 / Friday, February 17, 2023 / Notices Barnwell low-level waste disposal facility will be impacted by a significant increase in low-level waste burial charge pricing at that site. Additionally, at the nation’s three other low-level waste disposal facilities, both moderate increases in some, and decreases in other, low-level waste burial charges, coupled with moderate increases in labor rates and near doubling of energy rates for all licensees, likely will result in higher formula amounts for all licensees. Thus, based on revised lowlevel waste burial factors presented in this report and increases in labor and energy rates, the minimum decommissioning fund formula amounts calculated by licensees will likely reflect moderate to more substantial increases when compared to those previously reported by licensees in 2021. II. Additional Information The NRC published a notice in the Federal Register on November 29, 2022 (87 FR 73345) requesting public comment on draft NUREG–1307, Revision 19, ‘‘Report on Waste Burial Charges: Changes in Decommissioning Waste Disposal Costs at Low-Level Waste Burial Facilities.’’ The public comment period closed on December 29, 2022. The NRC received four public comments. The public comments and the NRC staff’s responses are presented in a comment resolution matrix available in ADAMS under Accession No. ML23038A239. The staff considered the public comments received on the draft document in preparing final NUREG–1307, Revision 19. Dated: February 13, 2023. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Frederick R.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) administers the pension plan termination insurance program under title IV of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Section 4006(a)(7) of ERISA provides for a ‘‘termination premium’’ (in addition to the flat-rate and variable-rate premiums under sections 4006(a)(3)(A) and (E)) that is payable for 3 years following certain distress and involuntary plan terminations. PBGC’s regulations on Premium Rates (29 CFR part 4006) and Payment of Premiums (29 CFR part 4007) implement the termination premium. Sections 4007.3 and 4007.13(b) of the premium payment regulation require the filing of termination premium information and payments with PBGC. PBGC has issued Form T and its corresponding instructions for paying the termination premium. In this renewal, PBGC is updating the email address listed in the filing instructions for Form T and making a clarifying edit. In general, the termination premium applies where a single-employer plan terminates in a distress termination under section 4041(c) of ERISA (unless contributing sponsors and controlled group members meet the bankruptcy liquidation requirements of section 4041(c)(2)(B)(i)) or in an involuntary termination under section 4042 of ERISA, and the termination date under section 4048 of ERISA is after 2005. The termination premium is payable for 3 years. The same amount is payable each year. The termination premium is due on the 30th day of each of 3 consecutive 12-month periods. The first 12-month period generally begins shortly after the termination date or after the conclusion of bankruptcy proceedings in certain cases. The termination premium and related information must be filed by a person liable for the termination premium. The persons liable for the termination premium are contributing sponsors and members of their controlled groups, determined on the day before the plan termination date. Section 4007.10 of the premium payment regulation requires the retention of records supporting or VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:09 Feb 16, 2023 Jkt 259001 validating the computation of premiums paid and requires that the records be made available to PBGC.

On December 12, 2022, PBGC published in the Federal Register (at 87 FR 76090) a notice informing the public of its intent to request an extension of this collection of information, as modified. No comments were received. PBGC is requesting that OMB extend approval of the collection (with modifications) 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, during the next 3 years, it will receive an average of 1 filing of Form T per year.

Decision of the Governors of the United States Postal Service on Changes in Rates and Classifications of General Applicability for Competitive Products (Governors’ Decision No. 23–1) February 9, 2023 Statement of Explanation and Justification Pursuant to authority under section 3632 of title 39, as amended by the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006 (‘‘PAEA’’), we establish changes in rates and classifications of general applicability for First-Class Package Service, one of the Postal Service’s competitive products. The changes are described generally below, with a detailed description of the changes in the attachment. The attachment includes the draft Mail Classification Schedule sections with classification changes in legislative format. In Governors’ Decision 22–2, we established a variety of changes designed to simplify and streamline the Postal Service’s ground competitive package offerings under one product, First-Class Package Service. Subsequently, in Governors’ Decision 22–4, we delayed implementation of the changes and committed to implementing them this calendar year with a minimum of 30 days’ notice. The changes we establish today will implement the approved changes and rename the First-Class Package Service product as ‘‘USPS Ground Advantage.’’ The Retail and Commercial price categories will be maintained, and the Retail price category will retain its seal against inspection. USPS Ground Advantage will also include up to $100 of insurance as well as cubic pricing tiers up to one cubic foot (1 cu. ft.). Certain additional changes are being made today, to clarify that dimensional weighting applies up to Zone 9, and to clarify that the dimension noncompliance fee applies to this product. We are also removing Certificate of Mailing and Certified Mail as available extra services that can be utilized with USPS Ground Advantage. Rates are being established for USPS Ground Advantage, reflecting both ounce-based and pound-based rates, to take effect on July 9, 2023. These rates are designed to closely align with existing ground package rates established in January 2023. We understand that management may E:\FR\FM\17FEN1.SGM 17FEN1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation 
(PBGC) administers the pension plan termination insurance program under 
title IV of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 
(ERISA). Section 4006(a)(7) of ERISA provides for a ``termination 
premium'' (in addition to the flat-rate and variable-rate premiums 
under sections 4006(a)(3)(A) and (E)) that is payable for 3 years 
following certain distress and involuntary plan terminations. PBGC's 
regulations on Premium Rates (29 CFR part 4006) and Payment of Premiums 
(29 CFR part 4007) implement the termination premium. Sections 4007.3 
and 4007.13(b) of the premium payment regulation require the filing of 
termination premium information and payments with PBGC. PBGC has issued 
Form T and its corresponding instructions for paying the termination 
premium. In this renewal, PBGC is updating the email address listed in 
the filing instructions for Form T and making a clarifying edit.
    In general, the termination premium applies where a single-employer 
plan terminates in a distress termination under section 4041(c) of 
ERISA (unless contributing sponsors and controlled group members meet 
the bankruptcy liquidation requirements of section 4041(c)(2)(B)(i)) or 
in an involuntary termination under section 4042 of ERISA, and the 
termination date under section 4048 of ERISA is after 2005.
    The termination premium is payable for 3 years. The same amount is 
payable each year. The termination premium is due on the 30th day of 
each of 3 consecutive 12-month periods. The first 12-month period 
generally begins shortly after the termination date or after the 
conclusion of bankruptcy proceedings in certain cases. The termination 
premium and related information must be filed by a person liable for 
the termination premium. The persons liable for the termination premium 
are contributing sponsors and members of their controlled groups, 
determined on the day before the plan termination date. Section 4007.10 
of the premium payment regulation requires the retention of records 
supporting or validating the computation of premiums paid and requires 
that the records be made available to PBGC.
    The existing collection of information was approved under OMB 
control number 1212-0064 (expires April 30, 2023). On December 12, 
2022, PBGC published in the Federal Register (at 87 FR 76090) a notice 
informing the public of its intent to request an extension of this 
collection of information, as modified. No comments were received. PBGC 
is requesting that OMB extend approval of the collection (with 
modifications) 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, during the next 3 years, it will receive an 
average of 1 filing of Form T per year. PBGC estimates that the total 
annual burden for the collection of information will be 5 minutes and 
$67.
