Commodity Credit Corporation 

Notice of Request for Extension of a 

Currently Approved Information 

Collection 

AGENCY: Commodity Credit Corporation, 

USDA. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this 

notice announces the Commodity Credit 

Corporations (CCC) intention to request 

an extension for a currently approved 

information collection in support of the 

CCC Facility Guarantee Program (FGP) 

based on re-estimates. 

DATES: Comments on this notice must be 

received by August 31, 2010. 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OR COMMENTS: 

Contact P. Mark Rowse, Director, Credit 

Programs Division, Foreign Agricultural 

Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: CCC Facility Guarantee 

Program. 

OMB Number: 0551–0032. 

Expiration Date of Approval: 

November 30, 2010. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

Abstract: The primary objective of the 

FGP is to expand U.S. agricultural 

exports by improving agricultural 

infrastructure in importing countries. 

The FGP makes available export credit 

guarantees to encourage U.S. private 

sector financing of foreign purchases of 

U.S. goods and services on credit terms. 

The CCC has not yet made 

announcements for the FGP this year. 

The FGP information collection is 

similar to those for the Export Credit 

Guarantee Program (GSM–102) (OMB 

control number 0551–0004). The 

information collection for the FGP 

differs primarily from GSM–102 as 

follows: 

(1) The applicant, in order to receive 

a payment guarantee, provides 

information evidencing that the 

exported goods and services used to 

develop improved infrastructure will 

primarily benefit exports of U.S. 

agricultural commodities and products; 

and 

(2) The applicant is required to certify 

that the value of non-U.S. components 

of goods and services is less than 50 

percent of the contract value covered 

under the payment guarantee. 

In addition, each exporter and 

exporter’s assignee (U.S. financial 

institution) must maintain records on all 

information submitted to CCC and in 

connection with sales made under the 

FGP. The information collected is used 

by CCC to manage, plan, evaluate and 

account for government resources. The 

reports and records are required to 

ensure the proper and judicious use of 

public funds. 

Estimate of Burden: The public 

reporting burden for these collections is 

estimated to average 12 hours per 

response. 

Respondents: Exporters of U.S. 

agricultural commodities, banks or other 

financial institutions, producer 

associations, export trade associations, 

and U.S. Government agencies. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 5 

per annum. 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Respondent: 6 per annum. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden of 

Respondents: 360 hours. 

Requests for Comments: Send 

comments regarding: (a) Whether the 

proposed collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, including 

through the use of automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology.
