ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Agency is revising its disbursement of funds regulations.

This action is necessary since existing regulations do not accurately reflect the current disbursement methodologies employed by the Agency. The intended effect is to simplify and update the regulations. These amended regulations are to ensure the Agencies' field offices have current guidance on the disbursement methods available. EFFECTIVE DATE: April 13, 2005. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ronald Gianella, Staff Accountant, Office of the Deputy Chief Financial Officer, Policy and Internal Review Division, U.S.

Department of Agriculture, STOP 33, P.O. Box 200011, St. Louis, MO 63120, telephone:

(314)457-4298. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Classification This action is not subject to the provisions of Executive Order 12866 since it involves only internal Agency management. This action is not published for prior notice and comment under the Administrative Procedure Act since it involves only internal Agency management and publication for comment is unnecessary and contrary to the public interest. Programs Affected The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance programs impacted by this action are as follows: 10.405—Farm Labor Housing Loans and Grants 10.415—Rural Rental Housing Loans 10.433—Rural Housing Preservation Grants 10.766—Community Facilities Loans and Grants Intergovernmental Consultation Programs with Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance numbers 10.405, 10.415, 10.433, and 10.766 are subject to the provisions of Executive Order 12372 which requires intergovernmental consultation with State and local officials. Civil Justice Reform This final rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. In accordance with this rule:

(1)Unless otherwise specifically provided, all State and local laws and regulations that are in conflict with this rule will be preempted;

(2)no retroactive effect will be given to this rule except as specifically prescribed in the rule; and

(3)administrative proceedings of the National Appeals Division (7 CFR part 11) must be exhausted before litigation against the Department is instituted. Paperwork Reduction Act There are no new reporting and recordkeeping requirements associated with this rule. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Pub. L. 104-4, establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal governments and the private sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA, the Agencies generally must prepare a written statement, including a cost-benefit analysis, for proposed and final rules with “Federal mandates” that may result in expenditures to State, local, or tribal governments, in the aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any 1 year. When such a statement is needed for a rule, section 205 of the UMRA generally requires the agencies to identify and consider a reasonable number of regulatory alternatives and adopt the least costly, more cost-effective, or least burdensome alternative that achieves the objectives of the rule. This rule contains no Federal mandates (under the regulatory provisions of title II of the UMRA) for State, local, and tribal governments or the private sector. Thus, the rule is not subject to the requirements of section 202 and 205 of the UMRA. Environmental Impact Statement This document has been reviewed in accordance with 7 CFR part 1940, Subpart G, “Environmental Program.” The Agencies have determined that this final action does not constitute a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of human environment, and in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42 U.S.C. 4321 *et seq.* , an Environmental Impact Statement is not required. Executive Order 13132, Federalism The policies contained in this rule do not have any substantial direct effect on States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. Nor does this rule impose substantial direct compliance costs on State and local governments. Therefore, consultation with the States is not required. Discussion of Final Rule These subparts are being revised to conform with changes made to 7 CFR 2018, subpart D, to include information concerning implementation of electronic funds transfer. List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 1942 Community development, community facilities, loan programs—housing and community development, loan security, rural areas, waste treatment and disposal—domestic, water supply—domestic.

(3)The Rural Development Manager will collect interest through the actual date of the retirement and obtain the permanent instrument(s) of debt in exchange for the interim financing instruments. The permanent instruments and the cash collection will be forwarded to the Office of the Deputy Chief Financial Officer immediately, except that for notes and single instrument bonds fully registered as to principal and interest the original will be retained in the Area Office and a copy will be forwarded to the Office of the Deputy Chief Financial Officer. In developing the permanent instruments, the sequence of preference set out § 1942.19(e) of Subpart A of Part 1942 of this chapter will be followed.

(j)*Loan disbursements.* Whenever a loan disbursement is received, lost, or destroyed, the Rural Development Manager will take the appropriate actions outlined in Rural Development Instruction 2018-D.

(1)*Review of loan closing.* When the loan has been closed, the Rural Development Manager will submit the completed loan closing documents and a statement showing what was done in closing the loan to the State Director. The State Director will review the documents and the Rural Development Manager's statement to determine whether the transaction was closed properly. For loans to public bodies or Indian tribes the State Director will forward all documents, along with a statement that all administrative requirements have been met, to the Regional Attorney. The Regional Attorney will review the submitted material to determine whether all legal requirements have been met. The Regional Attorney should review Rural Development standard forms only for proper execution, unless the State Director brings attention to specific questions. Facility development should not be held up pending receipt of the Regional Attorney opinion. When the review of the State Director has been completed, and for public bodies and Indian tribes the Regional Attorney's opinion has been received, the State Director must advise the Rural Development Manager of any deficiencies that must be corrected and return all material that was submitted for review.
