RIN 1215-AB49

 
Labor Organization Officer and Employee Report, Form LM-30

AGENCY: Office of Labor-Management Standards, Employment Standards 
Administration, Department of Labor.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: The Employment Standards Administration's Office of Labor-
Management Standards (``OLMS'') of the Department of Labor is 
correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register of July 
2, 2007, (72 FR 36106). That document revised the Form LM-30, Labor 
Organization Officer and Employee Report, its instructions, and related 
provisions in the Department's regulations. In that document, the 
effective date of the final rule (August 16, 2007) was omitted from one 
paragraph in the preamble and the beginning date for the mandatory 
submission of Form LM-30 reports filed under the final rule (November 
16, 2008) was inadvertently omitted from the same paragraph. This 
document corrects those omissions.

EFFECTIVE DATE: Effective on August 16, 2007.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kay H. Oshel, Director, Office of 
Policy, Reports, and Disclosure, Office of Labor-Management Standards, 
U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., Room N-5609, 
Washington, DC 20210, olms-public@dol.gov, (202) 693-1233 (this is not 
a toll-free number). Individuals with hearing impairments may call 1-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    The final rule that is the subject of this correction appeared in 
the Federal Register of July 2, 2007, (72 FR 36106); the final rule 
revised the Form LM-30, Labor Organization Officer and Employee Report, 
its instructions, and related provisions in the Department's 
regulations. The rule implemented section 202 of the Labor-Management 
Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, 29 U.S. 432, whose purpose is to 
require officers and employees of labor organizations to report 
specified financial transactions and holdings to effect public 
disclosure of any possible conflicts of interest with their duty to the 
labor organization and its members. A paragraph in the preamble to the 
final rule, at 72 FR 36113, left blank the effective date of the rule 
and the beginning date for the mandatory submission of Form LM-30 
reports filed under the rule. This correction remedies this inadvertent 
omission by inserting the appropriate dates.

Need for Correction

    As published, the final rule omits the pertinent dates from the 
paragraph, at 72 FR 36113 (col. 3), that describes the prospective 
effect of the final rule.

Correction

    Accordingly, the preamble to the final rule (FR Doc. 07-3155), is 
corrected as follows:

Section II, Subsection A [Corrected]

    On page 36113, in the third column, the last paragraph of Section 
II, subsection A, is corrected to read:
    DOL is applying these changes prospectively only. This final rule 
will apply to fiscal years beginning on or after August 16, 2007. 
Therefore, no report subject to today's rule will be due until at least 
November 16, 2008. There is ample time from publication of this final 
rule until November 16, 2008 for all filers to obtain any information 
they need to comply with the filing requirements.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 9th day of July, 2007.
Dixon M. Wilson,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Employment Standards.
