2021.
Type of Request: Extension with a
revision.
Abstract: Form CCC–10,
‘‘Representations for Commodity Credit
Corporation or Farm Service Agency
Loans and Authorization to File a
Financing Statement and Related
Documents’’ is necessary to:
(a) Gather or verify basic data,

applicant, that is required on a
financing statement filed by CCC or FSA
to perfect a security interest in collateral
used to secure a loan; and
(b) Obtain applicant permission to file
a financing statement prior to the
execution of a security agreement.
FSA’s Farm Loan Programs (FLP) uses
the CCC–10 when a nonapplicant third
party pledges the full value of chattel
security to FSA as adequate security
required for an FLP loan.
FSA increased the number of
respondents by 1,766 and the burden
hours increased by 147. The applicants
who are applying for farm loans to
pledge security for a loan have
increased since the last request. CCC’s
Marketing Assistance Loan and Farm
Storage Facility Loan programs are
exempted from Paperwork Reduction
Act.
For the following estimated total
annual burden on respondents, the
formula used to calculate the total
burden hours is the estimated average
time per response multiplied by the
