SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Conflict of Interest Package for
CDFI Fund Application Reviewers.
Abstract: Through its programs, the
CDFI Fund supports financial
institutions around the country that are
specifically dedicated to financing and
supporting community and economic
development activities. This strategy
builds strong institutions that make
loans and investments and provide
financial services in markets (including
economically distressed investment
areas and targeted populations) whose
needs for loans, investments, and
financial services have not been fully
met by traditional financial institutions,
particularly in the areas of promoting
homeownership, developing of
affordable housing, and stimulating
small business development, as well as
providing financial services to those
who have not previously accessed
financial institutions.
Consistent with the Federal
Acquisition Regulations provisions on
conflicts of interest, the CDFI Fund has
applied, and will continue to apply, a
conflict of interest policy with respect to
its application reviewers. This policy
will prohibit reviewers from
participating in the evaluation or
process of selection of applications
where such participation creates a
conflict of interest or an appearance of
a conflict of interest. The conflict of
interest policy and review materials are
used by the CDFI Fund to determine
whether a conflict of interest or an
appearance of a conflict of interest will
prevent a reviewer from being assigned
particular applications during the
evaluation process for the CDFI Fund
awards. The policy and review materials
are applicable to all reviewers,
including CDFI Fund staff and other
federal government employees, as well
as those reviewers engaged through
contract with the CDFI Fund. The
completion of the package is mandatory
for all reviewers.
Current Action: Reinstatement.
Type of review: Regular review.
Affected Public: Individuals.

SUMMARY: As required by the Privacy
Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552(e)(4)), notice
is hereby given that the Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to
amend the existing system of records
titled ‘‘Compensation, Pension,
Education, and Vocational
Rehabilitation and Employment
Records—VA (58VA21/22/28).’’ VA is
amending the system of records by
adding a new system location and a new
routine use regarding transfer of
educational benefits under the new
Post-9/11 GI Bill.
DATES: Comments on this amended
system of records must be received no
later than May 27, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Written comments may be
submitted through https://
www.Regulations.gov; by mail or handdelivery to the Director, Regulations

addition, during the comment period,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Shayla V. Mitchell, Management and
Program Analyst, Education Service
(225C), Department of Veterans Affairs,
810 Vermont Avenue, NW.,
Washington, DC 20420 telephone
(202) 461–1483.
VA
proposes to update the system location
to include the location of a new facility
where active educational assistance
records will be housed. VA also
proposes to add a routine use that will
permit the disclosure of information on
transferred educational assistance
benefits to the individual from whom
eligibility was derived, the transferor,
and the individual who received the
educational benefits, the transferee.
VA proposes to disclose claim
specific information to a transferor since
the transferor may terminate, deny,
suspend, add, or reduce educational
benefits to an eligible dependent at any
time during the individual’s eligibility
period. Since both the transferor and the
dependent are coequally responsible for
any debt incurred by the dependent,
both parties should have access to all
information pertaining to such
entitlement.
The Privacy Act permits VA to
disclose information about individuals
without their consent for a routine use
when the information will be used for
a purpose that is compatible with the
purpose for which the information was
collected.
The report of intent to amend and an
advance copy of the proposed changes
have been sent to the appropriate
Congressional committees and to the
Director of the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB), as required by
5 U.S.C. 552a(r) (Privacy Act) and
guidelines issued by OMB (65 FR
977677), December 12, 2000.
The proposed new routine use
numbered 65 will be added to the
system of records titled ‘‘Compensation,
Pension, Education, and Vocational
Rehabilitation and Employment
Records—VA’’ (58VA21/22/28),
published in the Federal Register at 74
FR 29275 (6/19/09).
