Abstract: Authorized under section 304(g) of the Federal National Mortgage Association Charter Act (12 U.S.C. 1719(g)) and Section 306(l) of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation Act (12 U.S.C. 1455(l), as amended by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) of 2008 (Public Law 110-289; approved July 30, 2008) the Department of the Treasury (Treasury) is implementing two programs under the HFA (Housing Finance Agency) Initiative. The statute provides the Secretary authority to purchase securities and obligations of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the GSEs) as he determines necessary to stabilize the financial markets, prevent disruptions in the availability of mortgage finance, and to protect the taxpayer. On December 4, 2009, the Secretary made the appropriate determination to authorize the two programs of the HFA Initiative: the New Issue Bond Program (NIBP) and the Temporary Credit and Liquidity Program (TCLP). Under the NIBP, Treasury has purchased securities from the GSEs backed by mortgage revenue bonds issued by participating state and local HFAs. Under the TCLP, Treasury has purchased a participation interest from the GSEs in temporary credit and liquidity facilities provided to participating HFAs as a liquidity backstop on their variable-rate debt. In order to properly manage the two programs of the initiative, continue to protect the taxpayer, and assure compliance with the Programs’ provisions, Treasury is instituting a series of data collection requirements to be completed by participating HFAs and furnished to Treasury through the GSEs.

Emergency Justfication: The Department of the Treasury (Treasury) respectfully requests emergency processing and approval of the collection of information requested from Housing Finance Agencies (HFAs) participating in Treasury’s New Issue Bond Program and Temporary Credit and Liquidity Program. The collection of information is needed to fulfill Treasury’s responsibilities under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) of 2008 (Public Law 110-289; approved July 30, 2008). Treasury cannot reasonably comply with the normal clearance procedures under 5 C.F.R. Part 1320 because the speed with which these programs were implemented in light of the turmoil in the financial markets. Accelerated implementation requires a similarly rapid collection of information for Treasury to effectively manage the programs of this Initiative.
