RIA tentatively concludes that the
proposed rule would not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small businesses.
However, the Initial Regulatory
Flexibility Analysis included in the
NPRM used inconsistent language in 83
FR 19881 and 19884. This correction
addresses that inconsistency. The
summary of the RIA that accompanied
83 FR 19860 will also be revised. The
revised RIA will be posted on
www.regulations.gov under AMS–TM–
17–0050.

We have tentatively concluded that the
proposed rule, if finalized, will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities; however, we are
seeking comment on this analysis and are not
certifying there would be no significant
adverse impact on a substantial number of
small businesses.
2. On page 19884, in column 1, the
Summary paragraph in Section D—
Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis is
corrected to read as follows:
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 606(b)), we tentatively conclude that
the proposed rules will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. The analysis presented in the
accompanying Regulatory Impact Analysis
suggests that the cost per entity is not large
for firms in any size category. However, we
are seeking comment on this analysis and are
not certifying there would be no significant
adverse impact on a substantial number of
small businesses.

Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Rural Housing Service
(RHS or Agency) proposes to amend the
current regulation for the Single Family
Housing Guaranteed Loan Program
(SFHGLP) on the subject of Single Close
Combination Construction to Permanent
Loans. The Agency proposes to amend
the regulation to provide increased
flexibility in loan terms that affect the
costs of interim construction financing
and the viability of combination
construction to permanent loans on the
secondary market in a manner which
will enable more lenders to make these
combination construction to permanent
loans to SFHGLP borrowers.
Specifically, the Agency proposes to:
Allow and define a maximum interest
rate for interim construction financing
that is different than the underlying
rate; allow for the escrow or reserve of
regularly scheduled principal, interest,
taxes and insurance (PITI) payments;
and remove the requirement for loan
modification or re-amortization once
construction is complete.
DATES: Written or email comments on
the proposed rule must be received on
or before August 20, 2018 to be assured
for consideration.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
on this proposed rule by any one of the
following methods:
• Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://
www.regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments
electronically.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to recent amendments to the
Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1621 et seq.),
as amended, the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) published a
proposed rule regarding establishment of a new national mandatory
bioengineered food disclosure standard in the Federal Register on May
4, 2018 (83 FR 19860). On that date, AMS also published a Regulatory
Impact Analysis (RIA) describing potential economic impacts of the
proposed rule, which included the Regulatory Flexibility Analysis. The
RIA tentatively concludes that the proposed rule would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
businesses. However, the Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
included in the NPRM used inconsistent language in 83 FR 19881 and
19884. This correction addresses that inconsistency. The summary of the
RIA that accompanied 83 FR 19860 will also be revised. The revised RIA
will be posted on www.regulations.gov under AMS-TM-17-0050.
