SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 4231(a) and (b) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) requires plans that are involved in a merger or transfer to give PBGC 120 days notice of the transaction and provides that if PBGC determines that specified requirements are satisfied, the transaction will be deemed not to be in violation of ERISA section 406(a) or (b)(2) (dealing with prohibited transactions). PBGC’s regulation on Mergers and Transfers Between Multiemployer Plans (29 CFR part 4231) sets forth the procedures for giving notice of a merger or transfer under section 4231 and for requesting a compliance determination. The regulations specify the information that must be included in a merger or transfer notice. A request for a compliance determination must provide additional information to enable PBGC to make an explicit finding that the merger/transfer requirements have been satisfied. Section 4231(e) of ERISA clarifies PBGC’s authority to facilitate a merger (a ‘‘facilitated merger’’) of two or more multiemployer plans if certain statutory requirements are met. For purposes of section 4231(e), ‘‘facilitation’’ may include training, technical assistance, mediation, communication with stakeholders, and support with related requests to other government agencies. In addition, subject to the requirements of section 4231(e)(2), PBGC may provide financial assistance (within the meaning of section 4261 of ERISA) to facilitate a merger (a ‘‘financial assistance merger’’) it determines is necessary to enable one or more of the plans involved to avoid or postpone insolvency. PBGC’s regulations specify the information requirements for a voluntary request for a facilitated merger under section 4231(e) of ERISA, including a financial assistance merger. PBGC uses information submitted by plan sponsors under the regulation to determine whether mergers and transfers conform to the requirements of ERISA section 4231 and the regulation. The collection of information under the regulation has been approved by OMB under control number 1212–0022 (expires October 31, 2024). PBGC intends to request that OMB extend approval of the collection for 3 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. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:17 May 08, 2024 Jkt 262001 PBGC estimates that there are 15 transactions each year (excluding financial assistance mergers). The estimated annual burden of the collection of information for 15 transactions (excluding financial assistance mergers) is 15 fund office hours and $74,400 in contractor costs for work by attorneys and actuaries. PBGC further estimates that there is one request each year for a financial assistance merger. The annual burden of the collection of information for financial assistance mergers is 10 fund office hours and $36,000 in contractor costs. The total annual burden of the collection of information is approximately 25 fund office hours and $110,400 in contractor costs. PBGC is soliciting public comments to— • Evaluate whether the proposed 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 proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodologies 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. notice informs the public of the filing, invites public comment, and takes other administrative steps.
