SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Department of Commerce, 

through its bureaus, the Economic 

Development Administration (EDA), 

Minority Business Development Agency 

(MBDA), International Trade 

Administration (ITA), National Oceanic 

and Atmospheric Administration 

(NOAA), National Technical 

Information Service (NTIS), National 

Telecommunications and Information 

Agency (NTIA), and other programs, 

assists reliable, capable individuals and 

firms in pursuit of various business 

development, business enterprise 

development and other forms of 

economic development. The form, CD–

346, is used to assist programs and 

grants administration officials in 

determining the fiscal responsibility and 

financial integrity of principal officers 

and employees of organizations, firms, 

and other entities which are recipients 

or beneficiaries of grants, cooperative 

agreements, loans, loan guarantees or 

other forms of federal financial 

assistance. The requirement is derived 

from the duties and responsibilities set 

forth in Section 4(a)(3) of the Inspector 

General Act of 1978, as amended, 5 

U.S.C.A. App. 3. 

The CD–346 is also completed, when 

required, by grant recipients. Through 

the name check process, the Office of 

Inspector General collects background 

information on key individuals 

associated with proposed financial 

assistance (grants, cooperative 

agreements, loans and loan guarantees) 

recipient organizations. The name check 

identifies those principals affiliated 

with proposed recipient organizations 

who have been convicted of, or are 

presently facing, criminal charges or are 

under investigation for fraud, theft, 

perjury or other matters which have 

significant impact on questions of
