SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background and Purpose
In January 2003, the National
Veterinary Medical Service Act
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:27 Apr 14, 2016
Jkt 238001
(NVMSA) was passed into law adding
section 1415A to the National
Agricultural Research, Extension, and
Teaching Policy Act of 1997
(NARETPA). This law established a new
Veterinary Medicine Loan Repayment
Program (7 U.S.C. 3151a) authorizing
the Secretary of Agriculture to carry out
a program of entering into agreements
with veterinarians under which they
agree to provide veterinary services in
veterinarian shortage situations.
Section 7105 of FCEA amended
section 1415A to revise the
determination of veterinarian shortage
situations to consider (1) geographical
areas that the Secretary determines have
a shortage of veterinarians; and (2) areas
of veterinary practice that the Secretary
determines have a shortage of
veterinarians, such as food animal
medicine, public health, epidemiology,
and food safety. This section also added
that priority should be given to
agreements with veterinarians for the
practice of food animal medicine in
veterinarian shortage situations.
NARETPA section 1415A requires the
Secretary, when determining the
amount of repayment for a year of
service by a veterinarian to consider the
ability of USDA to maximize the
number of agreements from the amounts
appropriated and to provide an
incentive to serve in veterinary service
shortage areas with the greatest need.
This section also provides that loan
repayments may consist of payments of
the principal and interest on
government and commercial loans
received by the individual for the
attendance of the individual at an
accredited college of veterinary
medicine resulting in a degree of Doctor
of Veterinary Medicine or the
equivalent. This program is not
authorized to provide repayments for
any government or commercial loans
incurred during the pursuit of another
degree, such as an associate or bachelor
degree. Loans eligible for repayment
include educational loans made for one
or more of the following: Loans for
tuition expenses; other reasonable
educational expenses, including fees,
books, and laboratory expenses,
incurred by the individual; and
reasonable living expenses as
determined by the Secretary. In
addition, the Secretary is directed to
make such additional payments to
participants as the Secretary determines
appropriate for the purpose of providing
reimbursements to participants for
individual tax liability resulting from
participation in this program. Finally,
this section requires USDA to
promulgate regulations within 270 days
of the enactment of FCEA (i.e., June 18,
PO 00000
Frm 00002
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

2008). The Secretary delegated the
authority to carry out this program to
NIFA. The final rule was published in
the Federal Register on April 19, 2010
[75 FR 20239–20248] allowing eligible
veterinarians to competitively apply for
and receive a VMLRP award.
From FY 2010 through FY 2015, NIFA
received 996 applications from which
340 VMLRP awards were offered.
Additional information by funding year
can be found at https://nifa.usda.gov/
vmlrp-reports-and-statistics. On
December 18, 2015, the President signed
into law the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2016 (Pub. L. 114–
113), which appropriated $5,000,000 for
the VMLRP. Funding for future years
will be based on annual appropriations
and balances, if any, remaining from
prior years.
The eligibility criteria for applicants
and the application forms and
associated instructions needed to apply
for a VMLRP award can be viewed and
downloaded from the VMLRP Web site
at: https://nifa.usda.gov/vmlrpapplicants.
