AGENCY:
U.S. Small Business Administration.
ACTION:
Notice of extension of comment period.
SUMMARY:
On May 1, 2006 SBA published a notice seeking comments on its proposed Lender Risk Rating System and notifying SBA Lenders (including 7(a) Lenders and Certified Development Companies) of the availability of risk rating information through SBA's Lender Portal. SBA is extending the comment period an additional 30 days to July 15, 2006. Given the significant level of interest the Notice has generated, SBA believes the affected parties would find it beneficial to have more time to review the proposal and prepare their comments.
DATES:
The comment period for the SBA Lender Risk Rating System Notice and Request for Comments published May 1, 2006 (71 FR 25624) is extended through July 15, 2006.
