DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 

Submission for OMB Review; Notice of 

Request for Emergency Approval 

May 18, 2022. 

In compliance with the requirements 

of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA), the Department of Agriculture 

(USDA) has submitted a request to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for a six-month emergency 

approval of the following information 

collection: ICR 0570–NEW, Meat and 

Poultry Intermediary Lending Program 

(MPILP). The requested approval would 

enable the implementation of this 

program to begin to increase the funds 

available to lenders to increase capacity 

for meat and poultry processing. 

Rural Business-Cooperative Service 

Title: Meat and Poultry Intermediary 

Lending Program (MPILP). 

OMB Control Number: 0570–NEW. 

Summary of Collection: The Rural 

Business-Cooperative Service is 

requesting emergency clearance 

approval for this information collection 

due to the need to effectively implement 

the program as quickly as possible to 

begin to increase the funds available to 

lenders to increase capacity for meat 

and poultry processing. Increasing 

capacity will help create a more diverse 

and secure U.S. food supply chain. 

Concentration within the meat and 

poultry sector had a disastrous effect on 

worker safety, producers’ livelihood, 

and product availability at the height of 

the pandemic in 2020. This 

concentration must be addressed in 

order to avoid future disruptions and 

further price increases.
