DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

Risk Management Agency

AGENCY:

Title: Subpart U—Ineligibility for
Programs under the Federal Crop
Insurance Act.
OMB Control Number: 0563–0085.
Summary of Collection: The Federal
Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) is a
wholly-owned Government corporation
created February 16, 1938 (7 U.S.C.
1501). The program was amended
previously, but Public Law 96–365,
dated September 26, 1980, provided for
nationwide expansion of a
comprehensive crop insurance program.
The Federal Crop Insurance Act, as
amended in later years further expanded
this role of the crop insurance program
to be the principal tool for risk
management by producers of
agricultural commodities.
Need and Use of the Information: The
purpose of collecting the information is
to ensure persons that are ineligible for
benefits under the Federal crop
insurance program are accurately
identified as such and do not obtain
benefits to which they are not eligible.
A person can become ineligible for
benefits for three reasons: (1) Debt on
unpaid premium or overpaid indemnity
(information provided by AIP; (2) Debt
on unpaid CAT fee (information
provided by AIP); and (3) Debarment/
disqualification/suspension, including
but not limited to judgement, civil fines,
etc. The Federal Crop Insurance
Corporation and AIPs use the
information collected to determine
whether a person seeking to obtain
Federal crop insurance coverage are
ineligible for such coverage according to
the statutory/regulatory mandates
identified. Failure to collect the
applicable information could result in
unearned Federal benefits being issued.
Description of Respondents:
Businesses or other for-profits.
Number of Respondents: 14.
Frequency of Responses: On
occasions; Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 2,647.

Departmental Information Clearance Officer.

Title: Advanced Biofuel Payment
Program.
OMB Number: OMB No. 0570–0063.
Expiration Date of Approval:
December 31, 2020.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: The Advanced Biofuel
Payment Program was authorized under
section 9005 of Title IX of the Food,
Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008
(2008 Farm Bill). It authorizes the
Agency to enter into contracts to make
payments to eligible entities to support
and ensure an expanding production of
advanced biofuels. Entities eligible to
receive payments under the Program are
producers of advanced biofuels that
meet all of the requirements of the
Program.
This revision reflects a 584 decrease
in annual responses and a 507 decrease
in burden hours. The reduction in the
burden to the public reflects a full
accounting of all Rural Development
(RD) forms that must be provided by
participating producers. The estimated
burden includes accounting for the
Assurance Agreement (RD 400–4) and
the Certification for Contracts, Grants
and Loans (RD 1940–Q). The total
estimated costs to the public was
decreased by $16,879 per year, from
$66,096 to 49,217.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 0.89 hours per
response.
Respondents: The respondents are the
advanced biofuel producers and Agency
staff who process applications and
quarterly payment requests.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
206 advanced biofuel producers.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 1.
Estimate Number of Responses: 1,500.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 1,339 hours.
