SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires 

that the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) provide interested 

Federal agencies and the public an early 

opportunity to comment on information 

collection requests. OMB may amend or 

waive the requirement for public 

consultation to the extent that public 

participation in the approval process 

would defeat the purpose of the 

information collection, violate State or 

Federal law, or substantially interfere 

with any agency’s ability to perform its 

statutory obligations. The IC Clearance 

Official, Regulatory Information 

Management Services, Office of 

Management, publishes that notice 

containing proposed information 

collection requests prior to submission 

of these requests to OMB. Each 

proposed information collection, 

grouped by office, contains the 

following: (1) Type of review requested, 

e.g., new, revision, extension, existing 

or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary 

of the collection; (4) Description of the 

need for, and proposed use of, the 

information; (5) Respondents and 

frequency of collection; and (6) 

Reporting and/or Recordkeeping 

burden. OMB invites public comment.

educational service agencies that serve 

low-income families. The directory 

allows post-secondary institutions to 

determine whether or not a Federal 

Perkins Loan, Direct loan, or Federal 

Family Education Loan at their school is 

eligible to receive a loan cancellation as 

provided under Title I of the Elementary 

and Secondary Education Act of 1965.

[FRL–8899–1] 

American Recovery and Reinvestment 

Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) Addendum 

to Supplemental Funding for 

Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund 

(RLF) Grantees 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: EPA published a notice on 

April 10, 2009 regarding plans to make 

available approximately $40 million in 

Recovery Act funding to supplement 

Revolving Loan Fund capitalization 

grants previously awarded 

competitively under section 104(k)(3) of 

the Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation and Liability 

Act (CERCLA). The purpose of this 

notice is to notify eligible RLF grantees 

that Supplemental Funding for 

Brownfields RLF grantees provided 

under the April 10, 2009 notice will be 

subject to the Buy American provisions 

for activities defined as infrastructure by 

the Agency. 

DATES: This action is effective April 30, 

2009. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Debi 

Morey, U.S. EPA, Office of Solid Waste 

and Emergency Response, Office of 

Brownfields and Land Revitalization, 

(202) 566–2735 or the appropriate 

Brownfields Regional Contact. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 17, 2009, President 

Barack Obama signed the American 

Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 

(Pub. L. No. 111–05) (Recovery Act). 

EPA received $100 million in Recovery 

Act appropriations for the CERCLA 

104(k) Brownfields Program of which 

25% must be used at brownfields sites 

contaminated with petroleum. The 

Agency has allocated approximately $40 

million of Recovery Act funds for 

supplemental funding of current RLF 

grantees as authorized by CERCLA 

104(k)(4). 

Title XVI, section 1605 of the 

Recovery Act, (‘‘Buy American’’) 

prohibits the use of Recovery Act funds 

for projects involving ‘‘the construction, 

alteration, maintenance or repair of a 

public building or public work unless 

all of the iron, steel, and manufactured 

goods used in the project are produced 

in the United States’’ unless certain 

specified exceptions apply. OMB has 

issued regulations at Subpart B of 2 CFR 

Part 276 implementing the Recovery Act 

Buy American provision. It is possible 

that a limited amount of RLF 

supplemental funding will be used 

directly by non-federal governmental 

entity borrowers or subgrantees for 

projects that have a principal purpose of 

installing concrete or asphalt (or similar 

material) caps to remediate 

contamination on brownfields on a 

public building or public work, as 

defined at 2 CFR 176.140(a), or 

constructing alternative drinking water 

systems as part of the remedy at a 

brownfields site. These caps constitute 

an engineering control to enclose and 

protect contamination from migration 

and the risk of exposure. Construction 

of alternate drinking water systems by a 

non-federal governmental entity with 

RLF supplemental funding would be a 

public work under 2 CFR 176.140(a). 

EPA considers loans and subgrants that 

have a principal purpose of carrying out 

of these types of activities to be 

infrastructure investments for the 

purposes of the certification and 

reporting requirements of Title XV, 

sections 1511 and 1512 of the Recovery 

Act and implementing regulations at 2 

CFR 176.50. If an RLF grantee is 

requesting supplemental funding for a 

project which requires a Buy American 

Act determination (i.e., a cap that will 

be directly incorporated into a public 

building or public work) and the grantee 

intends to use other than American 

steel, iron or manufactured goods, the 

grantee must request an advance 

determination or provide the necessary 

information in their request for RLF 

supplemental funding. 

Please note that in accordance with 2 

CFR 176.140(a), remediation activities 

conducted with RLF supplemental 

funds by private sector developers, nonprofit organizations (except multi-State, 

regional or interstate entities which 

have governmental functions) or other 

non-governmental borrowers or 

subgrantees, and tribes are not public 

buildings or public works for the 

purposes of the Buy American provision 

of the Recovery Act as implemented at 

Subpart B of 2 CFR Part 176. EPA does 

not consider remediation activities 

conducted with RLF supplemental 

funds by private sector developers, nonprofit organizations (except multi-State, 

regional or interstate entities which
