Lender Oversight and Credit Risk
Management Program; Public
Comment Meetings
U.S. Small Business
Administration.
ACTION: Notice of Public Comment
Meetings.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business
Administration (SBA) announces that it
will be holding a series of public
comment meetings on SBA’s proposed
lender oversight/credit risk management
rule. These public comment meetings
will be held in selected cities across the
country. The purpose of the meetings is
to broaden the opportunity for public
participation in the rulemaking.
Comments presented at these public
comment meetings will become part of
the administrative record for SBA’s
consideration in promulgating SBA’s
lender oversight/credit risk management
regulations.
DATES: The public comment meetings
will be held on the dates, times and at
the locations specified in the Meetings
Schedule section below. All attendees
should register at least one week prior
to the scheduled meeting date.
ADDRESSES: Parties interested in
commenting at or attending a public
comment meeting must register by
providing a request to Keri Pessagno,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On October 31, 2007, SBA published
a proposed rule to incorporate SBA’s
risk based lender oversight program into
SBA regulations (72 FR 61752) and, on
December 20, 2007, extended the
comment period on the proposed rule to
February 29, 2008. (72 FR 72264). SBA
included in the proposed rule a
proposed regulatory framework for
SBA’s oversight of participants in the
7(a), 504 and Microloan lending
programs. This regulatory framework
would enhance SBA’s Office of Credit
Risk Management’s (OCRM) ability to
maximize the efficiency of SBA’s
lending programs by effectively
managing program credit risk,
monitoring lender performance, and
enforcing lending program
requirements. It is SBA’s intent that the
proposed framework would also
incorporate the mission of SBA to assist
small business access to credit. While
the comments received on the proposed
rule are greatly assisting SBA with its
deliberations, SBA would like to
broaden public participation by offering
the public an opportunity to meet with
SBA in person and communicate their
comments. This Notice provides
information on the purpose, format,
scheduling, and registration for the
public comment meetings.
II. Public Comment Meetings
The purpose of these public comment
meetings is to broaden the opportunity
for public participation in the
rulemaking by providing a mechanism
beyond the single written round of
notice and comment and enable SBA to
more fully comprehend the views of the
public. SBA considers public comment
meetings a valuable component of its
deliberations and believes that these
comment meetings will allow for
constructive input by the lending
community, their appointed
representatives, and other members of
the public. The comments conveyed
would assist SBA in assessing and
refining SBA’s proposed rule.
The format will consist of a panel of
SBA representatives who will represent
the Agency and moderate the oral
comments. The panel will listen to the
views of the oral commenters on the
proposed regulations. SBA respectfully
E:\FR\FM\24MRP1.SGM
24MRP1
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 57 / Monday, March 24, 2008 / Proposed Rules
requests that the comments focus on the
regulations as discussed in the proposal,
SBA’s incorporation of the Agency
mission into the proposed rule, or on
any unique concerns of the lending
communities and other stakeholders
potentially affected by this rule. SBA
requests that commenters do not raise
issues pertaining to other SBA small
business programs or issues outside the
scope of the proposed rule. Issues not
raised in the proposed rule are more
properly suited to a different forum than
these meetings.
Individuals orally commenting before
SBA will be limited to a 5 minute oral
comment. SBA officials may ask
questions of a commenter to clarify or
further explore the oral comments.
Since the purpose of the meeting is to
assist SBA with gathering comments for
the proposed rule, SBA will not respond
as to whether it agrees with the view or
position of the commenter.
Commenters may provide a written
copy of their comments. SBA will
accept written material that the
commenter wishes to provide that
