29 USC Sec. 1411 and 29 CFR part 4231
prescribe requirements for multiemployer pension plan mergers and
transfers, including notification of PBGC by plan sponsors;
sponsors may request PBGC determinations that the requirements were
met. Sponsors may also request facilitation of a merger, including
with financial assistance. PBGC uses information submitted to
determine whether the requirements were met and whether to
facilitate a merger.
The increase in burden is
attributable to a statutory change necessitating additional
reporting requirements and to upward re-estimation of the cost of
contractor services.
