Subsidy.

Material changes were made to the
Loan Guarantee Agreement form,
LGA10, to reflect the program change
increasing the threshold amounts from
$1,000,000 to $2,000,000 in average
outstanding balance and minimum
outstanding balance to obtain ‘‘preferred
lender’’ and ‘‘performance lender’’
designations. The Department also
updated both its Loan Guarantee
Agreement form and Loan Insurance
Agreement form to increase the
timeframe in which closing must occur
following issuance of a loan guarantee
certificate from 60 to 90 days and to add
provisions that will allow the
Department to publicize successful
financing projects.
The Department has also adjusted its
burden hour estimates based on past
experience with the program, refining
the number of applications it expects to
receive and the time it takes to complete
them.

I. Abstract
This information collection allows
OFECR to receive written applications
for allocations of the $400,000,000 in
Tax Credit Bonding Authority granted to
the Secretary as a result of the American
Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009
(ARRA) of 2009. This bonding authority
is for the purpose of the construction,
rehabilitation and repair of BIA-funded
schools. Indian tribes interested in
obtaining an allocation of the bonding
authority to finance construction,
rehabilitation, or repair of a BIA-funded
elementary or secondary school or
dormitory must provide certain
information as part of the application.
The information collection allows
OFECR to determine whether the project
is eligible to be considered for an
allocation. No third party notification or
public disclosure burden is associated
with this collection. OFECR obtained an
emergency approval of this information
collection from OMB to allow it to
solicit applications for tax credit bonds.
See 74 FR 56211 (October 30, 2009).
OMB’s approval for the information
collection expires April 30, 2010.
Because the tax credit bond authority
extends through calendar year 2010,
OFECR is requesting a renewal of the
OMB authority to collect information
from Indian tribes through applications.
The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
provides an opportunity for interested
parties to comment on information
collection requests. OFECR is
proceeding with this public comment
period as the first step in obtaining
renewal of the information collection
clearance from OMB. OFECR has
adjusted its estimated number of
respondents and responses downward
based on its experience during the first
six months of collecting this
information. Each clearance request
contains (1) type of review, (2) title, (3)
summary of the collection, (4)
respondents, (5) frequency of collection,
(6) reporting and record keeping
requirements.
