SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Emergency Capital Investment Program.
OMB Control Number: 1505-0267.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Description: The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, signed into
law on December 27, 2020, added Section 104A of the Community
Development Banking and Financial Institutions Act of 1994 (the
``Act''). Section 104A authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to
establish the Emergency Capital Investment Program (Program) to support
the efforts of low- and moderate-income community financial
institutions to, among other things,
[[Page 57024]]
provide loans, grants, and forbearance for small businesses, minority-
owned businesses, and consumers, especially in low-income and
underserved communities, including persistent poverty counties, that
may be disproportionately impacted by the economic effects of the
COVID-19 pandemic by providing direct and indirect capital investments
in low-and moderate-income community financial institutions.
Applications, a state regulator response form, and eligible
applicant intent to participate form were previously approved under OMB
Control Number 1505-0267. Following review of the applications,
Treasury will enter into letter agreements (agreements) with
participating financial institutions. These agreements contain
standardized information collection necessary for the legal closing
process. The agreements collect information from applicants in two
general categories: (1) administrative information needed to facilitate
payments and notifications and (2) disclosures to Treasury (e.g.,
litigation or exceptions to representations and warranties).
Participants are the only parties that can provide information of this
type to Treasury. Treasury will publish this form on the Treasury
website. Based on this publication, Treasury will provide an
opportunity for eligible applicants to review the terms and conditions
of the investments prior to indicating to Treasury whether the
institution intends to participate in the Program.
Form Name: Letter Agreements; Applicant Notification Letter.
Affected Public: Private Sector, Businesses or other for-profits,
Non-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 372 respondents.
Frequency of Response: One time annually.
Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 372 total responses

Agreements; 15 minutes for response to Applicant Notification Letter.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1535 hours.
Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and included in the request for Office of Management
and Budget approval. All comments will become a matter of public
record. Comments are invited on: (a) whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the agency, including whether the information shall have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including
through the use of technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-up
costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services
required to provide information.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
