SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background Proposed regulations §§1.141-7 and 1.141-8, published on December 30, 1994 (59 FR 67658) addressed the application of the private activity bond tests of section 141(b)(2) to output contract for output facilities and the application of the $15 million limitation on output facility financings of section 141(b)(4). These proposed sections are withdrawn. These
-3sections were issued as part of proposed regulations under §§1.141-0 through 1.141-16, Definition of Private Activity Bonds, which were finalized in part in TD 8712 published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1997. Sections 1.141-7T, 1.141-8T, 1.141-15T, 1.142(f)(4)-1T, and 1.150-5T published in the Rules and Regulations portion of this issue of the Federal Register are issued to provide guidance on certain aspects of the private activity bond restrictions under section 141 of the Internal Revenue Code. The text of those temporary regulations also serves as the text of these proposed regulations. The preamble to the
It has also been determined that section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does not apply to these regulations. It is hereby certified that these regulations do not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. This certification is based upon the fact that in the years 1987 through 1993 a total of 61 different state or local government issuers of exempt facility bonds issued under section 142(f) for the local furnishing of electric energy or gas filed information returns with the Internal Revenue Service under section 149(e).
-4Further, an election under section 142(f)(4) is in no event required to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service more than once by a person engaged in the local furnishing of electric energy or gas. Therefore, a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
Code, this notice of proposed rulemaking will be submitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration for comment on its impact on small business. Comments and Public Hearing Before these proposed regulations are adopted as final regulations, consideration will be given to any written comments that are submitted timely (a signed original and eight (8) copies) to the IRS. All comments will be available for public
inspection and copying. A public hearing has been scheduled for April 28, 1998, at 10 a.m. in the Auditorium, Internal Revenue Building, 1111 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC. Because of access
restrictions, visitors will not be admitted beyond the lobby more than 15 minutes before the hearing starts. The rules of 26 CFR 601.601(a)(3) apply to the hearing. Persons that wish to present oral comments at the hearing must submit written comments by April 22, 1998 and submit an outline of the topics to be discussed and the time to be devoted to each topic by April 7, 1998. A period of 10 minutes will be allotted to each person for
-5making comments. An agenda showing the scheduling of the speakers will be prepared after the deadline for receiving outlines has passed. Copies of the agenda will be available free of charge at the hearing. Drafting Information The principal authors of these regulations are Michael G. Bailey and Allan Seller, Office of the Assistant Chief Counsel (Financial Institutions and Products), and Nancy M. Lashnits, formerly of that office. However, other personnel from the IRS
and Treasury Department participated in their development.
