SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 188 of the Consolidated Farm and 
Rural Development Act of 1972, as established under 29 CFR Part 75, 
authorizes the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to make 
or guarantee loans or grants to finance industrial and business 
activities in rural areas. The Secretary of Labor must review the 
application for financial assistance for the purpose of certifying to 
the Secretary of Agriculture that the assistance is not calculated, or 
likely, to result in: (a) A transfer of any employment or business 
activity from one area to another by the loan applicant's business 
operation; or, (b) an increase in the production of goods, materials, 
services, or facilities in an area where there is not sufficient demand 
to employ the efficient capacity of existing competitive enterprises 
unless the financial assistance will not have an adverse impact on 
existing competitive enterprises in the area. The Employment and 
Training Administration (ETA) within the Department of Labor is 
responsible for the review and certification process. Comments should 
address the two bases for certification and, if possible, provide data 
to assist in the analysis of these issues.

    Signed: At Washington, DC this 4th day of May, 2007.
Gay M. Gilbert,
Administrator, Office of Workforce Investment, Employment and Training 
Administration.
