(ICC served Apr. 16, 1987), aff’d sub nom. Black v. 

ICC, 837 F.2d 1175 (DC Cir. 1988). 

effective date of the exemption (30 days 

after the notice was filed). 

CEDR states that CEDR and CCP are 

indirect subsidiaries of Canadian 

National Railway Company and that the 

proposed trackage rights are for the 

purpose of CEDR conducting 

interchange with CCP at CCP’s Waterloo 

Yard. CEDR states that such interchange 

operations have been ongoing and may 

not require Board authorization,2 but 

CEDR is seeking trackage rights 

authority out of an abundance of 

caution. 

As a condition to this exemption, any 

employees affected by the trackage 

rights will be protected by the 

conditions imposed in Norfolk & 

Western Railway Co.—Trackage 

Rights—Burlington Northern, Inc., 354 

I.C.C. 605 (1978), as modified in 

Mendocino Coast Railway, Inc.—Lease 

and Operate—California Western 

Railroad, 360 I.C.C. 653 (1980). 

This notice is filed under 49 CFR 

1180.2(d)(7). If the notice contains false 

or misleading information, the 

exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to 

revoke the exemption under 49 U.S.C. 

10502(d) may be filed at any time. The 

filing of a petition to revoke will not 

automatically stay the effectiveness of 

the exemption. Stay petitions must be 

filed by March 2, 2012 (at least 7 days 

before the exemption becomes 

effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY 

Proposed Collections; Comment 

Requests 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Department of the 

Treasury, as part of its continuing effort 

to reduce paperwork and respondent 

burden, invites the general public and 

other Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on proposed 

and/or continuing information 

collections, as required by the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 

Public Law 104–13 (44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2)(A)). Currently, the Office of 

the State Small Business Credit 

Initiative (SSBCI) within the 

Department of the Treasury is soliciting 

comments concerning (1) the SSBCI 

Allocation Agreement for Participating 

States, (2) the SSBCI Allocation 

Agreement for Participating 

Municipalities, (3) the SSBCI 

Application Form, and (4) the SSBCI 

Technical Assistance Quarterly Review 

collection. 

On September 27, 2010, President 

Obama signed into law the Small 

Business Jobs Act of 2010 (the ‘‘Act’’). 

Title III of the Act created the State 

Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI), 

which was funded with $1.5 billion to 

strengthen State programs that support 

lending to small businesses and small 

manufacturers. Treasury allocated 

Federal funds to participating States, 

territories, the District of Columbia, and 

municipalities (‘‘Participating States’’) 

in order to support statutorily eligible 

State or municipal capital access 

programs and other eligible State or 

municipal credit support programs, 

including loan guarantee, loan 

participation, collateral support, and 

venture capital programs. SSBCI is a 

one-time program of limited duration. 

The first two information collections 

memorialize the reporting requirements 

for Participating States, as required by 

the Act. The third information 

collection is only required of 

Participating States that wish to request 

an amendment to their prior approved 

applications. The final information 

collection is a voluntary telephonic 

collection from Participating States that 

wish to take advantage of technical 

assistance made available from Treasury 

as Participating States administer their 

programs. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before April 24, 2012 to 

be assured of consideration.

by any of the following methods:

Collection). Office of State Small 

Business Credit Initiative, Department 

of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania 

Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20220.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: SSBCI Allocation Agreement for 

Participating States. 

OMB Control Number: 1505–0227. 

Abstract: The SSBCI Allocation 

Agreement for States, which is required 

by Title III of the Small Business Jobs 

Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111–240, ‘‘the 

Act’’), will memorialize the terms and 

conditions for funds made available to 

participating states under the SSBCI. 

Among other duties, included in the 

terms of this agreement is the 

requirement that all Participating States 

submit quarterly and annual reporting 

to Treasury which details the use of 

funds under the program. This 

information is necessary in order to 

comply with reporting requirements 

established by the Act. 

The SSBCI Allocation Agreement for 

Participating Municipalities is a 

modified version of the SSBCI 

Allocation Agreement for Participating 

States that contains additional specific 

provisions for municipalities 

participating in the SSBCI, principally: 

(a) a requirement that municipal 

applicants applying jointly for SSBCI 

funds shall document and provide to 

Treasury a copy of a cooperative 

agreement that details the roles and 

responsibilities among each 

municipality as a condition of closing; 

and (b) a requirement that, for any loans 

or investments made outside of the 

geographic borders of a Participating 

Municipality, that Participating 

Municipality shall warrant in writing 

that such a transaction will result in 

significant economic benefit to that 

municipality. 

The SSBCI Application form will 

collect information from Participating

11194 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 37 / Friday, February 24, 2012 / Notices 

States, territories, or municipalities that 

wish to request an amendment to their 

existing approved SSBCI Application 

throughout the term of the Allocation 

Agreement. This form will collect the 

following: (a) Information about 

proposed changes to the apportionment 

of SSBCI funds among programs; (b) 

program design information for 

proposed new programs; or, (c) 

proposed material changes to the design 

of programs. Only those participating 

states, territories, or municipalities that 

elect to request a modification to their 

original SSBCI Application will be 

required to complete this form. 

The SSBCI Technical Assistance 

Quarterly Review collection is a 

voluntary collection from Participating 

States, territories, and municipalities 

that will be conducted telephonically on 

a quarterly basis and will not require a 

written submission to Treasury. The 

SSBCI Technical Assistance Quarterly 

Review will collect the following: (a) 

Qualitative data related to program 

performance; (b) an assessment of 

program implementation status to date; 

and (c) an assessment any future 

challenges to program performance. 

This data will be used by Treasury to 

determine the types and methods 

through which to offer technical 

assistance to participants in order to 

assist states with meeting the program 

performance goals of achieving the 

private leverage expectations of the 

SSBCI. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Affected Public: States, territories, the 

District of Columbia and municipalities 

that were approved by Treasury to 

participate in the SSBCI. 

SSBCI Quarterly and Annual Reporting 

Requirements 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

62. 

Estimated Average Time per 

Respondent: Approximately ten (10) 

hours per respondent per year. The 

estimated average time per respondent 

for the quarterly report is one (1) hour 

per report for a total of four (4) hours 

per year. The estimated average time per 

respondent for the annual report ranges 

from two (2) hours per year to 

approximately nineteen (19) hours per 

year depending on the use of electronic 

reporting mechanisms. The weighted 

average time per respondent for the 

annual report is 6.36 hours per year. 

The total estimated annual burden for 

this collection is 642 hours per year. 

SSBCI Allocation Agreement for 

Participating Municipalities 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 5. 

Estimated Average Time per 

Respondent: SSBCI anticipates that 3 

applicants will require a cooperative 

agreement. The estimate time to 

complete this document is 40 hours per 

agreement, for a net, one-time total of 

120 hours. Municipalities that have 

applied for the SSBCI program 

anticipate a total of 195 loan or 

investment transactions per year. SSBCI 

estimates that approximately 20% of 

these transactions may occur outside of 

the boundaries of applicant 

municipalities and that for each 

applicable transaction, the warranty will 

take approximately 1 hour to complete. 

Therefore, the estimated annual burden 

associated with warrants will take 39 

hours.

(4) hours per year. The estimated total 

annual burden is 248 hours per year. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours for all Collections: 1,064 hours,
