60-Day Notice of Proposed Information Collection: Promise Zones, 10819-10820 [2014-04200]

Download as PDF 10819 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 38 / Wednesday, February 26, 2014 / Notices The Final EA evaluates the existing Regulated Navigation Area (RNA) applicable to First Coast Guard District waters as it was amended in 2007 (the ‘‘2007 Final Rule’’) (72 FR 50052; corrected by 72 FR 70780). The purpose of those amendments was to enhance the pre2007 RNA by adding measures intended to further reduce the probability of an incident that could result in the discharge or release of oil or hazardous material, or cause serious harm, to navigable waters of the United States. As part of the process to implement the 2007 Final Rule, the USCG prepared a Categorical Exclusion Determination as defined in its Agency Procedures for Implementing the National Environmental Policy Act. In a ruling on May 17, 2011, the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals determined that the USCG ‘‘failed to comply with its obligations under the National Environmental Policy Act’’ when it failed to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) or an Environmental Assessment (EA). This Final EA is intended to remedy that insufficiency. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Dated: February 4, 2014. D.B. Abel, Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Commander, First Coast Guard District.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in Section A. ADDRESSES: A. Overview of Information Collection Title of Information Collection: Quality Control Requirements for Direct Endorsement Lenders. OMB Approval Number: 2502–0600. Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection. PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Form Number: N/A. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: Under 24 CFR 202.8(3), Direct Endorsement (DE) lenders which sponsor third-party originators (TPOs) are responsible to the Secretary for the actions of TPOs or mortgagees in originating loans or mortgages, unless applicable law or regulation requires specific knowledge on the part of the party to be held responsible. As a result, DE lenders are responsible for conducting quality control on TPO originations of FHAinsured mortgage loans, and ensuring that their quality control plans contain appropriate oversight provisions. This creates an information collection burden on DE lenders, since these institutions must conduct quality control on all loans they originate and underwrite. In addition, under 24 CFR 203.255(c) and (e), HUD conducts both pre- and postendorsement reviews of loans submitted for FHA insurance by DE lenders. As part of those reviews, the Secretary is authorized to determine if there is any information indicating that any certification or required document is false, misleading, or constitutes fraud or misrepresentation on the part of any party, or that the mortgage fails to meet a statutory or regulatory requirement. In order to assist the Secretary with this directive, FHA requires that lenders self-report all findings of fraud and material misrepresentation, as well any material findings concerning the origination, underwriting, or servicing of the loan that the lender is unable to mitigate or otherwise resolve. The obligation to self-report these findings creates an additional information collection burden on DE lenders. In accordance with the requirements of 5 CFR 1320.8(d), a Notice soliciting comments on this collection of information was initially published in the Federal Register on December 21, 2010 (Volume 75, Number 244, page 80066). At that time, FHA still allowed for loan correspondents to participate in its programs and had not yet transitioned to the use of TPOs. Therefore, FHA estimated information E:\FR\FM\26FEN1.SGM 26FEN1
