Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D).
This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Settlement Agreements Between a Plan
and Party in Interest information
collection. Prohibited Transaction
Exemption (PTE) 1994–71 exempts from
certain Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Code)
section 4975(c)(2) restrictions a
settlement agreement entered into
between an employee benefit plan and
a party in interest resulting from a DOL
investigation the plan. PTE 2003–39
similarly exempts a settlement
agreement entered into between a plan
and a party in interest in avoidance of
litigation from certain ERISA
restrictions and certain taxes of the
Code. ERISA section 408(a) authorizes
this information collection. See 29
U.S.C. 1108(a).
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1210–0091.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot
be for more than three (3) years without
renewal, and the current approval for
this collection is scheduled to expire on
August 31, 2015. The DOL seeks to
extend PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3) more
years, without any change to existing
requirements. The DOL notes that
existing information collection
requirements submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
June 17, 2015 (80 FR 34696).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from
OMB for each collection of information
they conduct or sponsor. The MSPB
intends to ask for a three-year renewal
of its Generic Clearance Request for
Voluntary Customer Surveys, OMB
Control No. 3124–0012. On June 19,
2015, MSPB sought public comments on
this ICR pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.8(d).
See 80 FR 35404. The MSPB did not
receive any comments. The MSPB is
submitting the ICR to OMB for review
and approval according to the procedure
prescribed in 5 CFR 1320.12.
Executive Order 12862, ‘‘Setting
Customer Service Standards,’’ mandates
agencies to identify their customers and
survey them to determine the kind and
quality of services they want and their
level of satisfaction with existing
services. The MSPB’s customers and
stakeholders include persons who file
appeals with MSPB for agency actions
taken against them (appellants), their
representatives, and representatives of
the agency which took the action.
These surveys will be used to evaluate
how well we are serving our customers
in terms of their perceptions of
timeliness, fairness, accessibility, and
sensitivity to their situation in deciding
their appeals. We also have used
customer surveys to determine the

Jkt 235001
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is withdrawing
Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.35, ‘‘Inservice
Inspection of Ungrouted Tendons in
Prestressed Concrete Containments.’’
The regulatory guide is being
withdrawn because of changes in NRC
regulations, which render the RG
obsolete. The withdrawal does not affect
the licensing bases of current licensees
approved to use RG 1.35.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NRC
is withdrawing Regulatory Guide 1.35
because it has been superseded by
changes in NRC regulations as set forth
in section 50.55a of Title 10 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Codes
and Standards.’’ The change in the
regulations provides more complete and
more up to date guidance.
The withdrawal of RG 1.35 does not
alter any prior or existing licensing
commitments based on its use.
Although a regulatory guide is
withdrawn, its use in existing licenses
is still valid, and changes to the licenses
can be accomplished using other
regulatory products. Withdrawal of a
regulatory guide means that the RG no
longer provides useful information or
has been superseded by other guidance,
technological innovations,
congressional actions, or other events. A
withdrawn RG should not be used for
future NRC licensing activities.
Since RG 1.35 was last revised in
1990, ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Code Section XI, Subsection IWL was
issued. This subsection addresses the
examination and repair/replacement of
the reinforced concrete and the posttensioning systems of concrete
containments. The NRC incorporated
the requirements of the 1992 Edition of
the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Code with the 1992 Addenda of
Subsection IWL into its regulations,
with specified modifications and
limitations, in an amendment to section
50.55a, which was published in the
Federal Register on August 8, 1996 (61
FR 41303). The rulemaking also
required that all nuclear power plants in
the United States develop and
implement a containment inspection
program in accordance with Section XI,
