PENSION BENEFIT GUARANTY CORPORATION


New Guidance Document Database

AGENCY: Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC).

ACTION: Notice of availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: PBGC announces its new guidance document database. Guidance 
documents currently in effect are accessible through the database.

DATES: The database will be publicly available no later than February 
28, 2020.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Hilary Duke ([email protected]), 
Assistant General Counsel for Regulatory Affairs, Office of the General 
Counsel, 202-229-3839. (TTY users may call the Federal relay service 
toll-free at 800-877-8339 and ask to be connected to 202-229-3839.)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 9, 2019, the President issued 
Executive Order (E.O.) 13891, ``Promoting the Rule of Law Through 
Improved Agency Guidance Documents.'' Central principles of E.O. 13891 
are that the American public should only be subject to binding rules 
imposed through duly enacted statutes or through regulations that are 
lawfully promulgated, and that Americans should have fair notice of any 
such obligations. To ensure increasing transparency, section 3 of the 
E.O. requires each agency to establish on its website a single, 
searchable, indexed database that contains, or links to, all of the 
agency's ``guidance documents,'' as defined in the E.O., and provides 
certain information about them. Accordingly, PBGC has established the 
required guidance document database at www.pbgc.gov/guidance. The 
guidance document database contains links to PBGC ``guidance 
documents.''

    Issued in Washington, DC, by
Gordon Hartogensis,
Director, Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.
