Title: Meat and Poultry Intermediary Lending Program.
OMB Control Number: 0570-NEW.
Type of Request: New collection.
Abstract: The notice contains general provisions for the Meat and
Poultry Intermediary Lending Program grants and applies to
intermediaries, and other parties involved in making, servicing, or
liquidating such grants. The notice also contains general provisions
for ultimate recipients of loans made by intermediaries. The
information is used by Agency loan officers for program monitoring.
The estimates do not include burden hours for customary and usual
business practices of entities other than the Agency. Therefore, this
package only considers the information the Agency requires in excess of
what a lender would typically require of a business, as well as the
information the Agency regulation requires from the lender in excess of
what it would typically do for a non-guaranteed loan.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this collection of
information is estimated to average 3.32 hours per response.
Respondents: Businesses, not-for-profit institutions and others.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 75.
Total Annual Responses: 1,320.
Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 17.6.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 4,388 hours.
