"This document contains proposed regulations that would revise filing procedures for apprenticeship and training plan notices and 'top hat' plan statements ... to require electronic submission of these notices and statements.... The Department has determined that regular mail or personal delivery are no longer the most efficient or cost-effective ways to file and process these notices and statements.
