for a currently approved information collection in support of loan

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Form RD 1951-65, Customer Initiated Payments (CIP) 
Enrollment Form; Form RD 1951-66, FedWire Worksheet, and Form RD 3550-
28, Authorization Agreement for Preauthorized Payments.
    OMB Number: 0575-0184.
    Expiration Date of Approval: January 31, 2018.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: Rural Development uses electronic methods (Customer 
Initiated Payments [CIP], FedWire, and Preauthorized Debits [PAD]) for 
receiving and processing loan payments and collections. These 
electronic collection methods provide a means for Rural Development 
borrowers to transmit loan payments from their financial institution 
(FI) accounts to Rural Development's Treasury Account and receive 
credit for their payments.
    To administer these electronic loan collection methods, Rural 
Development collects the borrower's FI routing information (routing 
information includes the FI routing number and the borrower's account 
number). Rural Development uses Agency approved forms for collecting 
bank routing information for CIP, FedWire, and PAD.
    Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this collection of 
information is estimated to average .33 hours per response. Each Rural 
Development borrower who elects to participate in electronic loan 
payments will only prepare one response for the life of their loan 
unless they change financial institutions or accounts.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit; Not-for-profit 
institutions; and State, Local, or Tribal Government.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 8660.
    Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 8,660.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 4,230 hours.
    Copies of this information collection can be obtained from Jeanne 
Jacobs, Regulations and Paperwork Management Branch, at (202) 692-0040.
    Comments are invited on: (1) The need for the information including 
whether the information has practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the 
reporting burden estimate; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to 
minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents.
    Comments should be submitted to Jeanne Jacobs, Regulations and 
Paperwork Management Branch, Support Services Division, Rural 
Development, U.S. Department of Agriculture, STOP 0742, 1400 
Independence Avenue SW.,
