The CARES Act authorizes the Secretary
of the Treasury to make loans, loan guarantees, and other
investments that do not exceed $500 billion in the aggregate to
provide liquidity to eligible businesses related to losses incurred
as a result of coronavirus. Section 4003(b)(1)-(3) authorizes the
Secretary to make loans and loan guarantees available to passenger
air carriers and cargo air carriers, as well as certain related
businesses, and businesses critical to maintaining national
security.
Due to the unprecedented
number of emergency requests from the COVID-19 pandemic, Treasury
is requesting an emergency extension of the Payroll Support Program
to extend the expiration date by 6 months. Treasury has previously
conducted public commenting through a 60-day notice (7/16/2020, 85
FR 43300) and 30-day notice (9/21/2020, 85 FR 59373) and received a
three year approval, which was reset by subsequent emergency
requests.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
