Administrators of PBGC-insured pension
plans file PBGC premium forms with premium payments required under
29 USC 1307 and 29 CFR Part 4007, which also requires retention and
production of records necessary to support premium filings. 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 USC 1311 and 29 CFR Part 4011
enables PBGC to verify compliance and select plans for audit where
appropriate. PBGC also provides means for premium payers to submit
premium-related information to PBGC.
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 proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
