Administrators of PBGC-insured pension
plans file PBGC premium forms with premium payments required under
29 U.S.C. 1306 and 1307 and 29 CFR part 2610, which also requires
retention of relevant records. The forms identify payers and let
PBGC verify premium computations and perform premium audits. The
retained records facilitate audits. The certification of compliance
with 29 U.S.C. 1311 and 29 CFR part 2627 enables PBCG to verify
compliance and select plans for audit where appropriate.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
