Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation

1. 29 CFR Parts 4000, 4233, and 4903
2. RIN 1212-AB55

AGENCY:

Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) relocated on August 1, 2022, and is amending its regulations ( printed page 57825) that reference its former street address to reflect the new street address.

DATES:

This rule is effective September 22, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Karen Levin ( levin.karen@pbgc.gov), Attorney, Regulatory Affairs Division, Office of the General Counsel, Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, 445 12th Street SW, Washington, DC 20024-2101; 202-229-3559.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Through July 31, 2022, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) resided and accepted mail at 1200 K Street NW, Washington, DC, 20005-4026. On August 1, 2022, PBGC officially relocated to a new street address: 445 12th Street SW, Washington, DC 20024-2101.

PBGC is promulgating these amendments without advance notice or an opportunity for public comment because they fall under the “good cause” exemption of the Administrative Procedure Act at 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). PBGC finds that notice and comment are unnecessary because these amendments are merely technical; they effect no substantive changes to any rule. For the same reason, these amendments fall within the “good cause” exception to the delayed effective date provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act and the Congressional Review Act at 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), 808(2). Moreover, because these amendments are exempt from the notice and comment procedure of the Administrative Procedure Act under 5 U.S.C. 553(b), PBGC is not required to conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis under 5 U.S.C. 603 or 604.^[1]

PBGC has determined that this action is not a “significant regulatory action” under the criteria set forth in Executive Order 12866.
