Maximum Loan Amount Available for
B&I Guaranteed Loans in Fiscal Year
2011
Rural Business-Cooperative
Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
7 CFR 4279.119(a)(1) allows
the Rural Development Administrator,
at the Administrator’s discretion, to
grant an exception to the $10 million
limit for Business and Industry (B&I)
guaranteed loans of $25 million or less
under certain circumstances. Due to the
limited program funds that will be
available for Fiscal Year 2011 for the
B&I Guaranteed Loan Program, the
Administrator has decided not to grant
exceptions to the $10 million limit
during FY 2011 in an effort to make
guaranteed loan funds go farther and to
provide financing assistance to as many
projects as possible. Limiting
guaranteed loans to $10 million or less
will allow the Agency to guarantee more
loans and target smaller loans/projects
impacting more small businesses and
will assist the Agency to conserve scarce
funding dollars at a time when there is
unprecedented interest in the program.
Any applications or pre-applications
that have been received as of the date
of publication of this notice will be
given full consideration.
DATES: Effective Date: April 20, 2011.

Notice of Closed Meeting of
the Broadcasting Board of Governors.
SUMMARY: At the time and location
listed above, the Broadcasting Board of
Governors (BBG) determined to conduct
a meeting closed to the public pursuant
to 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(6). The meeting was
closed to protect privacy concerns
during the consideration of potential
appointees to serve as the Director of the
Voice of America. Although discussion
of the matter in an open setting was
considered, the potential consequences
of disclosing the identities and
circumstances of individuals considered
for appointment compelled the Board to
close the meeting to public observation.
The Board also determined that shorter
than usual notice for a meeting was
required by official agency business and
the delayed availability of required
information.
