Title: RUS Electric Loan Application
and Related Reporting Burdens.
OMB Control Number: 0572–0032.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: RUS was established in
1994 by the Federal Crop Insurance
Reform and Department of Agriculture
Reorganization Act of 1994 (Pub. L.
103–354, 108 Stat. 3178, 7 U.S.C. 6941
et seq.) as successor to the Rural
Electrification Administration (REA)
with respect to certain programs,
including the electric loan and loan
guarantee program authorized under the
Rural Electrification Act of 1936 (7
U.S.C. 901 et seq., as amended) (RE
Act). The RE Act authorizes and
empowers the Administrator of RUS to
make and guarantee loans to furnish and
improve electric service in rural areas.
These loans are amortized over a period
of up to 35 years and secured by the
borrower’s electric assets and/or
revenue. In the interest of protecting
loan security, monitoring compliance
with debt covenants, and ensuring that
RUS loan funds are used for purposes
authorized by law, RUS requires that
borrowers prepare and submit for RUS
evaluation certain studies and reports.
Some of these studies and reports are
required only once for each loan
application; others must be submitted
periodically until the loan is completely
repaid. These forms and documents
serve as support for electric loan
applications and summarizes the types
and estimated costs of facilities and
equipment for which RUS financing is
being requested.
