SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The 313A Program guarantees loans to selected applicants and the 
proceeds of those loans are to be used for the purpose of making 
utility infrastructure loans and for refinancing bonds or notes issued 
for such purposes to a borrower that has at any time received, or is 
eligible to receive, a loan under the Rural Electrification Act of 
1936, as amended. The FY 2025 funding opportunity for the 313A Program 
was announced by a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) published in 
the Federal Register on October 25, 2024, at 89 FR 85148. Applicants 
should refer to this NOFO for all details on this funding opportunity.
    With this notice, RUS is reopening the December 24, 2024, 
application deadline and extending it until 5 p.m. ET on January 31, 
2025.
