Information Collection Requirement
Title: Critical Facility Information of
the Top 100 Most Critical Pipelines.
Type of Request: New collection.
OMB Control Number: Not yet
assigned.
Form(s): NA.
Affected Public: Pipeline Companies.
Abstract: Sec. 1557(b) of the
Implementing Recommendations of the
9/11 Commission Act of 2007 (Pub. L.
110–53, 121 Stat. 266, 475, 08/03/2007)
(9/11 Act), specifically tasks TSA to
develop and implement a plan for
inspecting critical facilities at the 100
most critical pipeline systems. To meet
the 9/11 Act’s requirement, TSA will
request a report of annual product
through-put and a listing of critical
facilities from the top 125 pipeline
systems in terms of annual through-put,
as reported in pipeline trade journals
and other sources.
TSA uses system annual through-put
as a primary factor in determining
pipeline system criticality. This figure is
based on the amount of hazardous
liquid or natural gas product
transported through a pipeline in one
year (i.e., annual through-put). TSA will
request the information from the top 125
pipeline systems in terms of annual
through-put, and out of these, TSA will
make a determination of the top 100
most critical pipeline systems. The
request for information will be
transmitted by TSA via e-mail to the 125
respondents. TSA will ask the
respondents to provide the information
to TSA via e-mail. To the extent the
information transmitted is Sensitive
Security Information; TSA will
safeguard the information in accordance
with 49 CFR parts 15 and 1520. TSA
will use the information to develop and
implement a plan for inspecting critical
facilities at the 100 most critical
pipeline systems.
Number of Respondents: 125.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 500 hours annually.
Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on July 29,
2008.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This notice announces
changes in the interest rates to be paid
on debentures issued with respect to a
loan or mortgage insured by the Federal
Housing Administration under the
provisions of the National Housing Act
(the Act). The interest rate for
debentures issued under section
221(g)(4) of the Act during the 6-month
period beginning July 1, 2008, is 37⁄8
percent. The interest rate for debentures
issued under any other provision of the
Act is the rate in effect on the date that
the commitment to insure the loan or

mortgage was issued, or the date that the
loan or mortgage was endorsed (or
initially endorsed if there are two or
more endorsements) for insurance,
whichever rate is higher. The interest
rate for debentures issued under these
other provisions with respect to a loan
or mortgage committed or endorsed
during the 6-month period beginning
July 1, 2008, is 45⁄8 percent. However, as
a result of an amendment to section 224
of the Act, if an insurance claim relating
to a mortgage insured under sections
203 or 234 of the Act and endorsed for
insurance after January 23, 2004, is paid
in cash, the debenture interest rate for
purposes of calculating a claim shall be
the monthly average yield, for the
month in which the default on the
mortgage occurred, on United States
Treasury Securities adjusted to a
constant maturity of 10 years.

loan or mortgage was endorsed (or
initially endorsed if there are two or
more endorsements) for insurance,
whichever rate is higher. This provision
is implemented in HUD’s regulations at
24 CFR 203.405, 203.479, 207.259(e)(6),
and 220.830. These regulatory
provisions state that the applicable rates
of interest will be published twice each
year as a notice in the Federal Register.
Section 224 further provides that the
interest rate on these debentures will be
set from time to time by the Secretary
of HUD, with the approval of the
Secretary of the Treasury, in an amount
not in excess of the annual interest rate
determined by the Secretary of the
Treasury pursuant to a statutory formula
based on the average yield of all
outstanding marketable Treasury
obligations of maturities of 15 or more
years.
The Secretary of the Treasury (1) has
determined, in accordance with the
provisions of section 224, that the
statutory maximum interest rate for the
period beginning July 1, 2008, is 45⁄8
percent; and (2) has approved the
establishment of the debenture interest
rate by the Secretary of HUD at 45⁄8
percent for the 6-month period
beginning July 1, 2008. This interest rate
will be the rate borne by debentures
issued with respect to any insured loan
or mortgage (except for debentures
issued pursuant to section 221(g)(4))
with insurance commitment or
endorsement date (as applicable) within
the latter 6 months of 2008.
For convenience of reference, HUD is
publishing the following chart of
debenture interest rates applicable to
mortgages committed or endorsed since
January 1, 1980:
