Interagency Guidance on Leveraged Lending

Key Information

Abstract

This guidance outlines for agency-supervised institutions high-level principles related to safe-and-sound leveraged lending activities, including underwriting considerations, assessing and documenting enterprise value, risk management expectations for credits awaiting distribution, stress-testing expectations, pipeline portfolio management, and risk management expectations for exposures held by the institution. This guidance applies to all financial institutions supervised by the OCC, Board, and FDIC that engage in leveraged lending activities. The number of community banks with substantial involvement in leveraged lending is small; therefore, the agencies generally expect community banks to be largely unaffected by this guidance.

ICE Flight Manifest/Billing Agreement

Key Information

Abstract

OMB Circular A-126, Subject: Improving the Management and Use of Government Aircraft (May 22, 1992), requires that government agencies that fly non-official passengers in a Space Available status charge them the “full coach fare” cost of their seat on the government aircraft. Circular A-126 defines “full coach fare” as “a coach fare available to the general public between the day that the travel was planned and the day that the travel occurred.” Id. ¶ 4f. To properly bill these passengers, ICE must set up accounts receivable in the Federal Financial Management System (FFMS). Accounts receivable must be based on legally valid debts. The Flight Manifest/Billing Agreement (FM/BA) form will collect the contact information needed to send bills to these passengers from FFMS, and will document their agreement to be billed for their seats on these flights. The ICE Flight Manifest Information/Agreement To Reimburse form is used to collect information from members of the public, contractors, Federal employees, or dependents who intend to board ICE-chartered aircraft for purposes of evacuation. The purposes of the data collected on this form are two-fold. First, ICE will verify the individual’s identity before he/she boards an ICE-chartered aircraft to assess the safety of the aircraft, its crew, other passengers, and the United States. Further, the data collected on the form is also used in the event of an emergency to help ensure timely notification of points of contact designated by the passenger. Second, the form will confirm the agreement of Space Available passengers to be billed for their travel, and establish the names, addresses, and Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) for billing and collection purposes. The ICE Senior Field Official(s) at the airfield of embarkation will collect pertinent data for flight manifest information from all persons wishing to fly on an ICE-chartered aircraft prior to their boarding of the aircraft. Only passengers flying in a Space Available status, that is, private persons not on official government travel orders, will be required to complete the relevant fields on the form stating the reason for Space Available travel and requesting their signature to document their agreement to be billed for their travel. In special emergency situations, the form may be completed in-flight. The ICE Senior Field Official(s) will then submit the completed forms and the flight manifest to the program office that chartered the flight and to the Emergency Management Unit via email, as soon as practicable upon completion of the flight.

Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Grantmaking Program: Applications for Subawards November Launch

Key Information

Abstract

To meet the goals and objectives that demonstrate the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPAs) and the Administrations commitment to achieving environmental justice and embedding environmental justice into Agency programs, the Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Grantmaking Program provides about $600 million in 11 cooperative agreements funding to Grantmakers who will function as pass-through entities for the Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Subgrants (2 CFR Parts 200 and 1500). Each Grantmaker will collaborate with EPA to design and build their own processes to receive and evaluate applications to fund the initial development of community-led environmental justice projects.Emergency Justfication:With this Information Collection Request (ICR), EPA seeks emergency clearance by October 31, 2024 for six Grantmakers to solicit applications for their first round of subgrants to be launched in October 2024. EPA cannot reasonably comply with the normal clearance procedures because the time between the Grantmakers receipt of their funding awards and the launch of their subaward programs (3 months) does not allow sufficient time to obtain PRA clearance using the standard ICR process (which typically takes 6-9 months). Collection of the information requested under this emergency clearance (i.e., applications) is essential for the Grantmakers to have a mechanism for selecting and distributing subaward grants to fund environmental justice projects in underserved communities, thus fulfilling the central objective of the program. The six-month emergency clearance period will cover the first round of subaward applications that will be solicited by six Grantmakers in October 2024. Subsequent rounds of applications for these six Grantmakers will be authorized via a Standard ICR package for the Grantmaking Program that will be submitted for review via the standard ICR approval process.

Consolidated Labeling Requirements for 49 CFR Part 541 and Procedures for Selecting Lines to be Covered by the Theft Prevention Standard for 49 CFR Part 542

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection supports the Federal Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard’s requirements that certain vehicle lines be marked with identifying symbols or numbers (parts-marking) to reduce the incidence of motor vehicle thefts through tracing and recovery of parts from stolen vehicles. In addition to the parts-marking requirements, vehicle manufacturers must submit certain information to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) about their vehicle lines covered by this standard and must maintain that information for the duration of the production of a vehicle line. There are five information collections in this request: (1) the requirement to mark major parts of covered motor vehicles; (2) the requirement to submit to NHTSA target areas showing where the parts will be marked; (3) the requirement that manufacturers maintain the designated target areas for the duration of the production of the vehicle line; (4) the requirement for manufacturers of new LDT lines to submit information to NHTSA to allow the agency to determine whether the LDT line will be required to comply with the parts-marking requirements because it is likely to be a high theft line; and (5) the requirement for manufacturers of new LDT lines to submit information to NHTSA to allow the agency to determine the LDT will be required to comply with the parts-marking requirements because it contains major parts that are interchangeable with the majority of the covered major parts of passenger motor vehicles covered by the standard. This is a reinstatement that increases NHTSA’s burden by 150,550 hours and $24,003,000 in cost. However, during the previous submission the hours were 267,356, which now is a reduction of 116,806 hours from the previous submission. This reduction is due to the decreased number of vehicles requiring stamping (previously 8 million) and the number of target area submissions (previously 30). The costs for printing have reduced $57,917,000 (from $81,920,000) from the last OMB approval. Not only have the number of vehicles reduced by 3.5 million, but the previous approval included labor costs (burden hour costs) in the printing costs. The printing cost per vehicle, $5.33, has remained the same.

Corporate Average Fuel Economy Reporting

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is for an extension with modification of NHTSA’s currently approved ICR for NHTSA’s corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) program. NHTSA estimates that approximately 26 unique motor vehicle manufacturers (23 manufacturers required to comply with 49 CFR Part 537 CAFE reporting, and 3 small volume motor vehicle manufacturers petitioning NHTSA for alternative standards) will respond to the information collection in each of the next three years. This ICR includes 12 mandatory information collections: 2 annual reporting requirements, 8 additional as-needed reports, and 2 information collections for a petition process. The reporting requirements in 49 CFR Part 537 obligate a manufacturer to submit reports to the Secretary of Transportation regarding whether the manufacturer will comply with an applicable CAFE standard for the model year for which the report is made; the actions a manufacturer has taken or intends to take to comply with the standard; and other information the Secretary requires by regulation. A manufacturer must submit a report containing the above information during the 30-day period before the beginning of each model year, and during the 30-day period beginning the 180th day of the model year. When a manufacturer decides that actions reported are not sufficient to ensure compliance with that standard, the manufacturer must report additional actions it intends to take to comply with the standard and include a statement about whether those actions are sufficient to ensure compliance. NHTSA is requesting approval for this information collection to be modified to reflect proposed changes to required CAFE reporting. The modifications include additional information that must be submitted in pre-model and mid-model year reports and new information that must be submitted relating to credit value. The additional burden for reporting the value of a credit tradeis estimated to be 550 hours. NHTSA now estimates the total burden of this ICR to be 4,861 hours. This is a change of 843 hours (from 4,018 hours) and is a result of collecting additional data elements as a result of the CAFE Final Rule (RIN: 2127-AM34) and correcting some calculations errors from the prior ICR. In response to comments made on the NPRM, NHTSA has made modifications to the templates from what was described in the ICR submitted at the NPRM stage. No change in estimated burden hours was needed as a result of these modifications.

ARP-HCY State Coordinators Survey

Key Information

Abstract

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP) included an unprecedented $800 million to support the specific needs of homeless children and youth via the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief – Homeless Children and Youth (ARP-HCY) Fund. State educational agencies (SEAs) and local educational agencies (LEAs) must use ARP-HCY funds to identify homeless children and youth, to provide homeless children and youth with wrap-around services to address the challenges of COVID-19, and to enable homeless children and youth to attend school and fully participate in school activities. This is a one-time grant program administered as part of the American Rescue Plan. The U.S. Department of Education (the Department) is seeking to understand how funds under this one-time grant program are being used. Specifically, the Department is seeking to learn about the distribution of ARP-HCY funds by SEAs, the characteristics of LEAs receiving funds, and the characteristics of LEAs who chose not to participate in the distribution of funds in each state. Additionally, the Department would like to gather information on how SEAs are using the funds that were set aside at the State level under this program. Information obtained in this survey will be used to inform technical assistance and support provided by the Department and the National Center for Homeless Education (NCHE), resources developed by NCHE, and further studies.

Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Form 7205)

Key Information

Abstract

Form 7205 (December 2022) is being created to allow taxpayers who own or lease a commercial building to claim under section 179D a deduction for a portion of the cost of installing energy-efficient commercial building property. Form 7205 consolidates deductions from other IRS forms and schedules; and provides information to support the deduction claimed. This form helps taxpayers understand how to calculate the deduction and increase taxpayer compliance. The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (P.L. 116-260), section 102(a), made the IRC section 179D deduction permanent. Notice 2008-40 clarifies and amplifies Notice 2006–52, 2006–1 C.B. 1175. Notice 2006–52 provides a process that allows a taxpayer who owns a commercial building and installs property as part of the commercial building’s interior lighting systems, heating, cooling, ventilation, and hot water systems, or building envelope to obtain a certification that the property satisfies the energy efficiency requirements of § 179D(c)(1) and (d) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Notice 2006–52 also provides for a public list of software programs that may be used in calculating energy and power consumption for purposes of § 179D, and allows software developers to be added to the list. Taxpayers are required by section 179D (statute) to certify each project for which they claim the 179D deduction. The IRS has not added to that burden in Notice 2008-40 but simply provided guidance on how to complete the certification process required by the statute.
