other technological collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology should be addressed to: Desk 

Officer for Agriculture, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB), 

OIRA_Submission@OMB.EOP.GOV or 

fax (202) 395–5806 and to Departmental 

Clearance Office, USDA, OCIO, Mail 

Stop 7602, Washington, DC 20250–

potential persons who are to respond to 

the collection of information that such 

persons are not required to respond to 

the collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control

Farm Service Agency 

Title: 7 CFR 1941, Operating Loan 

Policies, Procedures and Authorizations 

and Closings. 

OMB Control Number: 0560–0162. 

Summary of Collection: The 

Consolidated Farm and Rural 

Development Act (7 U.S.C 1922) 

(CONACT) authorizes the Secretary of 

Agriculture and Farm Service Agency 

(FSA) to make and insure loans to 

farmers and ranchers and to administer 

the provisions of the CONACT 

applicable to the Farm Loan Program. 

The information is required to ensure 

that the agency provides assistance to 

applicants who have reasonable 

prospects of repaying the government 

and meet statutory eligibility 

requirements. This assistance enables 

family farm operators to use their land, 

labor, and other resources and to 

improve their living and financial 

conditions so that they can eventually 

obtain credit elsewhere. 

Need and Use of the Information: The 

information is needed for FSA loan 

approval officials to evaluate an 

applicant’s eligibility, and to determine 

if the operation is economically feasible 

and the security offered in support of 

the loan is adequate. FSA relies on 

current information to carry out the 

business of the program as intended and 

to protect the government’s interest. A 

variety of forms will be used to collect 

the information. If the information were 

not collected, or collected less 

frequently, the Agency would be: (1) 

Unable to make an accurate eligibility 

and financial feasibility determination 

on respondents’ request for new loans as 

required by the CONACT; and (2) 

unable to meet the congressionally 

mandated mission of loan programs. 

Description of Respondents: Farms: 

Business or other for-profit; Individuals 

or households. 

Number of Respondents: 26,146. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

Other (OL Loans). 

Total Burden Hours: 7,019.
