SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The 9003 Biorefinery, Renewable Chemical, and Biobased Product 
Manufacturing Assistance Program provides loan guarantees up to $250 
million to assist in the development, construction, and retrofitting of 
new and emerging technologies.
    Unless otherwise specified by the Agency in a notice published in 
the Federal Register, application deadlines are typically October 1 and 
April 1 of each year. If the application deadline falls on a weekend or 
an observed holiday, the deadline will be the next federal business 
day. As provided for in 7 CFR 4279.260(b), RBCS, by this notice, is 
specifying a new application deadline.
    With this notice, RBCS is re-opening the October 1 deadline and 
extending it until 4:30 p.m. ET on December 31, 2024.
    Additionally, the Lender or the Borrower generally must submit to 
the Agency a non-binding letter of intent to apply for loan guarantee 
not less than 30 calendar days prior to the application deadline. 
However, RBCS, at its discretion, may accept applications that do not 
submit a letter of intent as provided for in 7 CFR 4279.260(a)(1).

Administrator, Rural Business-Cooperative Service.
