Abstract: Authorized under the American Recovery and Reinvestment act (ARRA), hereafter Recovery Act, the Department of the Treasury is implementing several provisions of the Act, specifically Division B - Tax, Unemployment, Health, Fiscal Relief, and Other Provisions. Among these components is a program that requires Treasury to make payments, in lieu of a tax credit, to persons who place in service qualified renewable energy property. The collection of information is necessary to identify recipients and evaluate whether or not the property is qualified.

Emergency Justfication: The Department of the Treasury (Treasury) requests emergency processing and approval of the collection of information. The collection of information is needed to fulfill Treasury’s responsibilities under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), Public Law 111-5. Due to the immediacy of the need for this collection, Treasury requests this request be given emergency consideration.
