The OMB is particularly interested in comments which: • Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; • Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; • Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and • Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, *e.g.* , permitting electronic submission of responses. *Agency:* Employee Benefits Security Administration. *Type of Review:* Extension of currently approved collection. *Title:* Disclosures for Participant Directed Individual Account Plans under ERISA section 404(c). *OMB Number:* 1210-0090. *Frequency:* On occasion. *Type of Response:* Third party disclosure. *Affected Public:* Business or other for-profit; Not-for-profit institutions; and Individuals or households. *Number of Respondents:* 245,000. *Number of Annual Responses:* 30,164,000. *Estimated Time Per Respondent:* 3.5 hours. *Total Burden Hours:* 860,000. *Total Annualized capital/startup costs:* $0. *Total Annual Costs (operating/maintaining systems or purchasing services):* $33,020,000. *Description:* Section 404(c) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) (29 U.S.C. 1104(c)) provides that, if an individual account pension plan permits a participant or beneficiary to exercise control over assets in his or her account and the participant or beneficiary in fact exercises such control (as determined under regulations of the Department of Labor), the participant or beneficiary shall not be deemed to be a fiduciary by such exercise of control and no person otherwise a fiduciary to the plan shall be liable for any loss or breach that results solely from this exercise of control. The Department of Labor's regulation under section 404(c), codified at 29 CFR 2550.404c-1, describes the circumstances in which a participant or beneficiary in an individual account plan is considered to have exercised control over the assets in his or her individual account so as to relieve a fiduciary to the plan of liability relating to the exercise of control. The regulation specifies the manner in which an individual account pension plan must operate in allowing participants or beneficiaries to allocate individual account assets among available investment alternatives, such that section 404(c) will limit the plan fiduciary's liability for the investment decision. The regulation provides, among other things, that participants and beneficiaries must have adequate information on which to base investment decisions. The regulation specifies the information that a plan must make available before a participant first makes investment decisions; when that information changes, for example when the available investment options under the plan change; and also upon the participant's and beneficiary's request. These information collection provisions are necessary to ensure that participants and beneficiaries are adequately informed about investment alternatives available under the plan, their rights, and the consequences of their investment decisions. Such information is important in assisting participants and beneficiaries in understanding their investment risks and achieving their retirement savings goals. Ira L. Mills, Departmental Clearance Officer. [FR Doc.

(ATAA)applicable to workers of the subject firm. The negative determination was signed on September 14, 2005, and soon will be published in the **Federal Register** . The workers of Cequent Electrical Products, Breakaway Switches Product Line, Albion, Indiana (TA-W-57,567A) and Cequent Electrical Products, Cable Connectors Product Line, Albion, Indiana (TA-W-57,567B) were certified eligible to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance
(TAA)on September 14, 2005. The initial ATAA investigation determined that the skills of the subject worker group are easily transferable to other positions in the local area. In the request for reconsideration, the company official provided new information confirming that the skills of the workers at the subject firm are not easily transferable in the local commuting area. Additional investigation has determined that the workers possess skills that are not easily transferable. A significant number or proportion of the worker group are age fifty years or over. Competitive conditions within the industry are adverse. Conclusion After careful review of the additional facts obtained on reconsideration, I conclude that the requirements of Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, have been met for workers at the subject firm. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification: All workers of Cequent Electrical Products, Breakaway Switches Product Line, Albion, Indiana (TA-W-57,567A) and all workers of Cequent Electrical Products, Cable Connectors Product Line, Albion, Indiana (TA-W-57,567B), who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after July 15, 2004 through September 14, 2007, are eligible to apply for trade adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 and are also eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.

The notice was published in the **Federal Register** on January 16, 2004 (69 FR 2623). At the request of a petitioner, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged in the production of office and school supplies. New information provided by the company shows that Hunt Corporation, Speedball Road Plant, became known as Elmer's Products, Inc., Speedball Road Plant following a merger in late 2004. Workers separated from employment at the subject firm had their wages reported under a separate unemployment insurance
(UI)tax accounts for Elmer's Products, Inc., Speedball Road Plant. Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to properly reflect this matter. The intent of the Department's certification is to include all workers of Hunt Corporation, Speedball Road Plant, now known as Elmer's Products, Inc., Speedball Road Plant who was adversely affected by increased company imports. The amended notice applicable to TA-W-53,505 is hereby issued as follows: All workers of Hunt Corporation, Speedball Road Plant, now known as Elmer's Products, Inc., Speedball Road Plant, Statesville, North Carolina, who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after November 7, 2002 through December 9, 2005, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.

The Department's negative determination was issued on December 27, 2005. The Notice of determination published in the **Federal Register** on January 17, 2006 (71 FR 2568). The request for reconsideration alleged that the subject worker group supports production at an affiliated facility and that production is shifting from that facility to a foreign facility. Rawlings Sporting Goods Co., Inc., Licking, Missouri was previously certified for Trade Adjustment Assistance
(TAA)under TA-W-50,065 (issued December 16, 2002). The petitioners also allege that those circumstances which supported the previous certification still exist and infer that they should be used to support certification in the immediate petition. The Department carefully reviewed the petitioner's request for reconsideration and has determined that the Department will conduct further investigation based on new information provided by the petitioner and the company official. Conclusion After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the Department of Labor's prior decision.
