    Where a particular regulation calls for their application, the rules 
in this subpart A of part 4000 tell you what filing methods you may use 
for any submission (including a payment) to us. They do not cover an 
issuance from you to anyone other than the PBGC, such as a notice to 
participants. Also, they do not cover filings with us that are not made 
under our regulations, such as procurement filings, litigation filings, 
and applications for employment with us. (Subpart B tells you what 
methods you may use to issue a notice or otherwise provide information 
to any person other than us. Subpart C tells you how we determine your 
filing or issuance date. Subpart D tells you how to compute various 
periods of time. Subpart E tells you how to maintain required records in 
electronic form.)
