Pub. L. 106-386, div. B, title VI, Sec. 1602, Oct. 28, 2000, 114

Stat. 1538, provided that:

"(a) Short Title. - This section may be cited as the 'Teen

Suicide Prevention Act of 2000'.

"(b) Findings. - Congress finds that -

"(1) measures that increase public awareness of suicide as a

preventable public health problem, and target parents and youth

so that suicide risks and warning signs can be recognized, will

help to eliminate the ignorance and stigma of suicide as barriers

to youth and families seeking preventive care;

"(2) suicide prevention efforts in the year 2000 should -

"(A) target at-risk youth, particularly youth with mental

health problems, substance abuse problems, or contact with the

juvenile justice system;

"(B) involve -

"(i) the identification of the characteristics of the

at-risk youth and other youth who are contemplating suicide,

and barriers to treatment of the youth; and

"(ii) the development of model treatment programs for the

youth;

"(C) include a pilot study of the outcomes of treatment for

juvenile delinquents with mental health or substance abuse

problems;

"(D) include a public education approach to combat the

negative effects of the stigma of, and discrimination against

individuals with, mental health and substance abuse problems;

and

"(E) include a nationwide effort to develop, implement, and

evaluate a mental health awareness program for schools,

communities, and families;

"(3) although numerous symptoms, diagnoses, traits,

characteristics, and psychosocial stressors of suicide have been

investigated, no single factor or set of factors has ever come

close to predicting suicide with accuracy;

"(4) research of United States youth, such as a 1994 study by

Lewinsohn, Rohde, and Seeley, has shown predictors of suicide,

such as a history of suicide attempts, current suicidal ideation

and depression, a recent attempt or completed suicide by a

friend, and low self-esteem; and

"(5) epidemiological data illustrate -

"(A) the trend of suicide at younger ages as well as

increases in suicidal ideation among youth in the United

States; and

"(B) distinct differences in approaches to suicide by gender,

with -

"(i) 3 to 5 times as many females as males attempting

suicide; and

"(ii) 3 to 5 times as many males as females completing

suicide.

"(c) Purpose. - The purpose of this section is to provide for a

study of predictors of suicide among at-risk and other youth, and

barriers that prevent the youth from receiving treatment, to

facilitate the development of model treatment programs and public

education and awareness efforts.

"(d) Study. - Not later than 1 year after the date of the

enactment of this Act [Oct. 28, 2000], the Secretary of Health and

Human Services shall carry out, directly or by grant or contract, a

study that is designed to identify -

"(1) the characteristics of at-risk and other youth age 13

through 21 who are contemplating suicide;

"(2) the characteristics of at-risk and other youth who are

younger than age 13 and are contemplating suicide; and

"(3) the barriers that prevent youth described in paragraphs

(1) and (2) from receiving treatment.

"(e) Authorization of Appropriations. - There are authorized to

be appropriated to carry out this section such sums as may be

necessary."

Sec. 290ff. Comprehensive community mental health services for

children with serious emotional disturbances

-STATUTE-

(a) Grants to certain public entities

(1) In general

The Secretary, acting through the Director of the Center for

Mental Health Services, shall make grants to public entities for

the purpose of providing comprehensive community mental health

services to children with a serious emotional disturbance.

(2) "Public entity" defined

For purposes of this part, the term "public entity" means any

State, any political subdivision of a State, and any Indian tribe

or tribal organization (as defined in section 450b(b) and section

450b(c) (!1) of title 25).

(b) Considerations in making grants

(1) Requirement of status as grantee under part B of subchapter

XVII

The Secretary may make a grant under subsection (a) of this

section to a public entity only if -

(A) in the case of a public entity that is a State, the State

is a grantee under section 300x of this title;

(B) in the case of a public entity that is a political

subdivision of a State, the State in which the political

subdivision is located is such a grantee; and

tribal organization, the State in which the tribe or tribal

organization is located is such a grantee.

(2) Requirement of status as medicaid provider

(A) Subject to subparagraph (B), the Secretary may make a grant

under subsection (a) of this section only if, in the case of any

service under such subsection that is covered in the State plan

approved under title XIX of the Social Security Act [42 U.S.C.

1396 et seq.] for the State involved -

(i) the public entity involved will provide the service

directly, and the entity has entered into a participation

agreement under the State plan and is qualified to receive

payments under such plan; or

(ii) the public entity will enter into an agreement with an

organization under which the organization will provide the

service, and the organization has entered into such a

participation agreement and is qualified to receive such

payments.

(B)(i) In the case of an organization making an agreement under

subparagraph (A)(ii) regarding the provision of services under

subsection (a) of this section, the requirement established in

such subparagraph regarding a participation agreement shall be

waived by the Secretary if the organization does not, in

providing health or mental health services, impose a charge or

accept reimbursement available from any third-party payor,

including reimbursement under any insurance policy or under any

Federal or State health benefits program.

(ii) A determination by the Secretary of whether an

organization referred to in clause (i) meets the criteria for a

waiver under such clause shall be made without regard to whether

the organization accepts voluntary donations regarding the

provision of services to the public.

(3) Certain considerations

In making grants under subsection (a) of this section, the

Secretary shall -

(A) equitably allocate such assistance among the principal

geographic regions of the United States;

(B) consider the extent to which the public entity involved

has a need for the grant; and

subdivision of a State or that is an Indian tribe or tribal

organization -

(i) shall consider any comments regarding the application

of the entity for such a grant that are received by the

Secretary from the State in which the entity is located; and

(ii) shall give special consideration to the entity if the

State agrees to provide a portion of the non-Federal

contributions required in subsection (c) of this section

regarding such a grant.

(1) In general

A funding agreement for a grant under subsection (a) of this

section is that the public entity involved will, with respect to

the costs to be incurred by the entity in carrying out the

purpose described in such subsection, make available (directly or

through donations from public or private entities) non-Federal

contributions toward such costs in an amount that -

(A) for the first fiscal year for which the entity receives

payments from a grant under such subsection, is not less than

$1 for each $3 of Federal funds provided in the grant;

(B) for any second or third such fiscal year, is not less

than $1 for each $3 of Federal funds provided in the grant;

each $1 of Federal funds provided in the grant; and

(D) for any fifth and sixth such fiscal year,(!2) is not less

than $2 for each $1 of Federal funds provided in the grant.

(2) Determination of amount contributed

(A) Non-Federal contributions required in paragraph (1) may be

in cash or in kind, fairly evaluated, including plant, equipment,

or services. Amounts provided by the Federal Government, or

services assisted or subsidized to any significant extent by the

Federal Government, may not be included in determining the amount

of such non-Federal contributions.

(B) In making a determination of the amount of non-Federal

contributions for purposes of subparagraph (A), the Secretary may

include only non-Federal contributions in excess of the average

amount of non-Federal contributions made by the public entity

involved toward the purpose described in subsection (a) of this

section for the 2-year period preceding the first fiscal year for

which the entity receives a grant under such section.

Except as provided in this section, any religious organization

that is a program participant shall retain its independence from

Federal, State, and local government, including such

organization's control over the definition, development,

practice, and expression of its religious beliefs.

(2) Additional safeguards

Neither the Federal Government nor a State shall require a

religious organization to -

(A) alter its form of internal governance; or

(B) remove religious art, icons, scripture, or other symbols,

in order to be a program participant.

(e) Employment practices

Nothing in this section shall be construed to modify or affect

the provisions of any other Federal or State law or regulation that

relates to discrimination in employment. A religious organization's

exemption provided under section 2000e-1 of this title regarding

employment practices shall not be affected by its participation in,

or receipt of funds from, a designated program.

(f) Rights of program beneficiaries

(1) In general

If an individual who is a program beneficiary or a prospective

program beneficiary objects to the religious character of a

program participant, within a reasonable period of time after the

date of such objection such program participant shall refer such

individual to, and the appropriate Federal, State, or local

government that administers a designated program or is a program

participant shall provide to such individual (if otherwise

eligible for such services), program services that -

(A) are from an alternative provider that is accessible to,

and has the capacity to provide such services to, such

individual; and

(B) have a value that is not less than the value of the

services that the individual would have received from the

program participant to which the individual had such objection.

Upon referring a program beneficiary to an alternative provider,

the program participant shall notify the appropriate Federal,

State, or local government agency that administers the program of

such referral.

(2) Notices

Program participants, public agencies that refer individuals to

designated programs, and the appropriate Federal, State, or local

governments that administer designated programs or are program

participants shall ensure that notice is provided to program

beneficiaries or prospective program beneficiaries of their

rights under this section.

(3) Additional requirements

A program participant making a referral pursuant to paragraph

(1) shall -

(A) prior to making such referral, consider any list that the

State or local government makes available of entities in the

geographic area that provide program services; and

(B) ensure that the individual makes contact with the

alternative provider to which the individual is referred.

(4) Nondiscrimination

A religious organization that is a program participant shall

not in providing program services or engaging in outreach

activities under designated programs discriminate against a

program beneficiary or prospective program beneficiary on the

basis of religion or religious belief.

(g) Fiscal accountability

(1) In general

Except as provided in paragraph (2), any religious organization

that is a program participant shall be subject to the same

regulations as other recipients of awards of Federal financial

assistance to account, in accordance with generally accepted

auditing principles, for the use of the funds provided under such

awards.

(2) Limited audit

With respect to the award involved, a religious organization

that is a program participant shall segregate Federal amounts

provided under award into a separate account from non-Federal

funds. Only the award funds shall be subject to audit by the

government.

(h) Compliance

With respect to compliance with this section by an agency, a

religious organization may obtain judicial review of agency action

in accordance with chapter 7 of title 5.

treatment programs

-STATUTE-

(a) Findings

The Congress finds that -

(1) establishing unduly rigid or uniform educational

qualification for counselors and other personnel in drug

treatment programs may undermine the effectiveness of such

programs; and

(2) such educational requirements for counselors and other

personnel may hinder or prevent the provision of needed drug

treatment services.

(b) Nondiscrimination

In determining whether personnel of a program participant that

has a record of successful drug treatment for the preceding three

years have satisfied State or local requirements for education and

training, a State or local government shall not discriminate

against education and training provided to such personnel by a

religious organization, so long as such education and training

includes basic content substantially equivalent to the content

provided by nonreligious organizations that the State or local

government would credit for purposes of determining whether the

relevant requirements have been satisfied.

Sec. 291b. State allotments

-STATUTE-

(a) Computation for individual States; formulas for both new

construction and modernization

(1) Each State shall be entitled for each fiscal year to an

allotment bearing the same ratio to the sums appropriated for such

year pursuant to subparagraphs (1), (2), and (3), respectively, of

section 291a(a) of this title, and to an allotment bearing the same

ratio to the sums appropriated for such year pursuant to section

291a(b) of this title, as the product of -

(A) the population of such State, and

(B) the square of its allotment percentage,

bears to the sum of the corresponding products for all of the

States.

(2) For each fiscal year, the Secretary shall, in accordance with

regulations, make allotments among the States, from the sums

appropriated for such year under section 291a(c) of this title, on

the basis of the population, the financial need, and the extent of

the need for modernization of the facilities referred to in

paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 291a of this title, of the

respective States.

(b) Minimum allotments

(1) The allotment to any State under subsection (a) of this

section for any fiscal year which is less than -

(A) $50,000 for the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the Trust

Territory of the Pacific Islands, or Guam and $100,000 for any

other State, in the case of an allotment for grants for the

construction of public or other nonprofit rehabilitation

facilities,

(B) $100,000 for the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the Trust

Territory of the Pacific Islands, or Guam and $200,000 for any

other State in the case of an allotment for grants for the

construction of public or other nonprofit outpatient facilities,

Territory of the Pacific Islands, or Guam and $300,000 for any

other State in the case of an allotment for grants for the

construction of public or other nonprofit facilities for

long-term care or for the construction of public or other

nonprofit hospitals and public health centers, or for the

modernization of facilities referred to in paragraph (a) or (b)

of section 291a of this title, or

(D) $200,000 for the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the Trust

Territory of the Pacific Islands, or Guam and $300,000 for any

other State in the case of an allotment for grants for the

modernization of facilities referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b)

of section 291a of this title,

shall be increased to that amount, the total of the increases

thereby required being derived by proportionately reducing the

allotment from appropriations under such subparagraph or paragraph

to each of the remaining States under subsection (a) of this

section, but with such adjustments as may be necessary to prevent

the allotment of any of such remaining States from appropriations

under such subparagraph or paragraph from being thereby reduced to

less than that amount.

(2) An allotment of the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the Trust

Territory of the Pacific Islands, or Guam for any fiscal year may

be increased as provided in paragraph (1) only to the extent it

satisfies the Surgeon General, at such time prior to the beginning

of such year as the Surgeon General may designate, that such

increase will be used for payments under and in accordance with the

provisions of this part.

For the purposes of this part -

(1) The "allotment percentage" for any State shall be 100 per

centum less that percentage which bears the same ratio to 50 per

centum as the per capita income of such State bears to the per

capita income of the United States, except that (A) the allotment

percentage shall in no case be more than 75 per centum or less than

33 1/3 per centum, and (B) the allotment percentage for the

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the Trust

Territory of the Pacific Islands, and the Virgin Islands shall be

75 per centum.

(2) The allotment percentages shall be determined by the Surgeon

General between July 1 and September 30 of each even-numbered year,

on the basis of the average of the per capita incomes of each of

the States and of the United States for the three most recent

consecutive years for which satisfactory data are available from

the Department of Commerce, and the States shall be notified

promptly thereof. Such determination shall be conclusive for each

of the two fiscal years in the period beginning July 1 next

succeeding such determination.

(3) The population of the several States shall be determined on

the basis of the latest figures certified by the Department of

Commerce.

(4) The term "United States" means (but only for purposes of

paragraphs (1) and (2)) the fifty States and the District of

Columbia.

(d) Availability of allotments in subsequent years

(1) Any sum allotted to a State, other than the Virgin Islands,

American Samoa, the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, and

Guam for a fiscal year under this section and remaining unobligated

at the end of such year shall remain available to such State, for

the purpose for which made, for the next two fiscal years (and for

such years only), in addition to the sums allotted to such State

for such purposes for such next two fiscal years.

(2) Any sum allotted to the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the

Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, or Guam for a fiscal year

under this section and remaining unobligated at the end of such

year shall remain available to it, for the purpose for which made,

for the next two fiscal years (and for such years only), in

addition to the sums allotted to it for such purpose for each of

such next two fiscal years.

(e) Transfer of allotments

(1) Upon the request of any State that a specified portion of any

allotment of such State under subsection (a) of this section for

any fiscal year be added to any other allotment or allotments of

such State under such subsection for such year, the Secretary shall

promptly (but after application of subsection (b) of this section)

adjust the allotments of such State in accordance with such request

and shall notify the State agency; except that the aggregate of the

portions so transferred from an allotment for a fiscal year

pursuant to this paragraph may not exceed the amount specified with

respect to such allotment in clause (A), (B), (C), or (D), as the

case may be, of subsection (b)(1) of this section which is

applicable to such State.

(2) In addition to the transfer of portions of allotments under

paragraph (1), upon the request of any State that a specified

portion of any allotment of such State under subsection (a) of this

section, other than an allotment for grants for the construction of

public or other nonprofit rehabilitation facilities, be added to

another allotment of such State under such subsection, other than

an allotment for grants for the construction of public or other

nonprofit hospitals and public health centers, and upon

simultaneous certification to the Secretary by the State agency in

such State to the effect that -

(A) it has afforded a reasonable opportunity to make

applications for the portion so specified and there have been no

approvable applications for such portion, or

(B) in the case of a request to transfer a portion of an

allotment for grants for the construction of public or other

nonprofit hospitals and public health centers, use of such

portion as requested by such State agency will better carry out

the purposes of this subchapter,

the Secretary shall promptly (but after application of subsection

(b) of this section) adjust the allotments of such State in

accordance with such request and shall notify the State agency.

(3) In addition to the transfer of portions of allotments under

paragraph (1) or (2), upon the request of any State that a

specified portion of an allotment of such State under paragraph (2)

of subsection (a) of this section be added to an allotment of such

State under paragraph (1) of such subsection for grants for the

construction of public or other nonprofit hospitals and public

health centers, and upon simultaneous certification by the State

agency in such State to the effect that the need for new public or

other nonprofit hospitals and public health centers is

substantially greater than the need for modernization of facilities

referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of section 291a of this title,

the Secretary shall promptly (but after application of subsection

(b) of this section) adjust the allotments of such State in

accordance with such request and shall notify the State agency.

(4) After adjustment of allotments of any State, as provided in

paragraph (1), (2), or (3) of this subsection, the allotments as so

adjusted shall be deemed to be the State's allotments under this

section.

(f) Request by State to transfer portion of allotment

In accordance with regulations, any State may file with the

Surgeon General a request that a specified portion of an allotment

to it under this part for grants for construction of any type of

facility, or for modernization of facilities, be added to the

corresponding allotment of another State for the purpose of meeting

a portion of the Federal share of the cost of a project for the

construction of a facility of that type in such other State, or for

modernization of a facility in such other State, as the case may

be. If it is found by the Surgeon General (or, in the case of a

rehabilitation facility, by the Surgeon General and the Secretary)

that construction or modernization of the facility with respect to

which the request is made would meet needs of the State making the

request and that use of the specified portion of such State's

allotment, as requested by it, would assist in carrying out the

purposes of this subchapter, such portion of such State's allotment

shall be added to the corresponding allotment of the other State,

to be used for the purpose referred to above.

(a) Refusal to approve application; procedure; jurisdiction of

court of appeals

If the Surgeon General refuses to approve any application for a

project submitted under section 291e of this title or section 291j

of this title, the State agency through which such application was

submitted, or if any State is dissatisfied with his action under

section 291g of this title such State may appeal to the United

new or modified findings of fact and may modify his previous

action, and shall file in the court the record of the further

proceedings. Such new or modified findings of fact shall likewise

be conclusive if supported by substantial evidence.

The judgment of the court affirming or setting aside, in whole or

guarantee is sought, that the terms, conditions, maturity,

security (if any), and schedule and amounts of repayments with

respect to the loan are sufficient to protect the financial

interests of the United States and are otherwise reasonable and

in accord with regulations, including a determination that the

rate of interest does not exceed such per centum per annum on the

principal obligation outstanding as the Secretary determines to

be reasonable, taking into account the range of interest rates

prevailing in the private market for similar loans and the risks

assumed by the United States.

No application under this section shall be disapproved until the

Secretary has afforded the State agency an opportunity for a

hearing.

(d) Amendment of approved applications

Amendment of an approved application shall be subject to approval

in the same manner as an original application.

(e) Recovery rights; terms and conditions

(1) In the case of any loan to a nonprofit private agency, the

United States shall be entitled to recover from the applicant the

amount of any payments made pursuant to any guarantee of such loan

under this part, unless the Secretary for good cause waives its

right of recovery, and, upon making any such payment, the United

States shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the recipient of

the payments with respect to which the guarantee was made.

(2) Guarantees of loans to nonprofit private agencies under this

part shall be subject to such further terms and conditions as the

Secretary determines to be necessary to assure that the purposes of

this part will be achieved, and, to the extent permitted by

subsection (f) of this section, any of such terms and conditions

may be modified by the Secretary to the extent he determines it to

be consistent with the financial interest of the United States.

(f) Incontestable guarantee

Any guarantee of a loan to a nonprofit private agency made by the

Secretary pursuant to this part shall be incontestable in the hands

of an applicant on whose behalf such guarantee is made, and as to

any person who makes or contracts to make a loan to such applicant

in reliance thereon, except for fraud or misrepresentation on the

part of such applicant or such other person.

Sec. 291j-6. Loan guarantee and loan fund

-STATUTE-

(a)(1) There is hereby established in the Treasury a loan

guarantee and loan fund (hereinafter in this section referred to as

the "fund") which shall be available to the Secretary without

fiscal year limitation, in such amounts as may be specified from

time to time in appropriations Acts, (i) to enable him to discharge

his responsibilities under guarantees issued by him under this

part, (ii) for payment of interest on the loans to nonprofit

agencies which are guaranteed, (iii) for direct loans to public

agencies which are sold and guaranteed, (iv) for payment of

interest with respect to such loans, and (v) for repurchase by him

of direct loans to public agencies which have been sold and

guaranteed. There are authorized to be appropriated to the fund

from time to time such amounts as may be necessary to provide

capital required for the fund. To the extent authorized from time

to time in appropriation Acts, there shall be deposited in the fund

amounts received by the Secretary as interest payments or

repayments of principal on loans and any other moneys, property, or

assets derived by him from his operations under this part,

including any moneys derived from the sale of assets.

(2) Of the moneys in the fund, there shall be available to the

Secretary for the purpose of making of direct loans to public

agencies only such sums as shall have been appropriated for such

purpose pursuant to section 291j-7 of this title or sums received

by the Secretary from the sale of such loans (in accordance with

such section) and authorized in appropriations Acts to be used for

such purpose.

(b) If at any time the moneys in the fund are insufficient to

enable the Secretary to discharge his responsibilities under this

part -

(i) to make payments of interest on loans to nonprofit private

agencies which he has guaranteed under this part;

(ii) to otherwise comply with guarantees under this part of

loans to nonprofit private agencies;

(iii) to make payments of interest subsidies with respect to

loans to public agencies which he has made, sold, and guaranteed

under this part;

(iv) in the event of default by public agencies to make

payments of principal and interest on loans which the Secretary

has made, sold, and guaranteed, under this part, to make such

payments to the purchaser of such loan;

(v) to repurchase loans to public agencies which have been sold

and guaranteed under this part,

he is authorized to issue to the Secretary of the Treasury notes or

other obligations in such forms and denominations, bearing such

maturities, and subject to such terms and conditions, as may be

prescribed by the Secretary with the approval of the Secretary of

the Treasury, but only in such amounts as may be specified from

time to time in appropriations Acts. Such notes or other

obligations shall bear interest at a rate determined by the

Secretary of the Treasury, taking into consideration the current

average market yield on outstanding marketable obligations of the

United States of comparable maturities during the month preceding

the issuance of the notes or other obligations. The Secretary of

the Treasury is authorized and directed to purchase any notes and

other obligations issued hereunder and for that purpose he is

authorized to use as a public debt transaction the proceeds from

the sale of any securities issued under chapter 31 of title 31, and

the purposes for which securities may be issued under that chapter,

are extended to include any purchase of such notes and obligations.

The Secretary of the Treasury may at any time sell any of the notes

or other obligations acquired by him under this subsection. All

redemptions, purchases, and sales by the Secretary of the Treasury

of such notes or other obligations shall be treated as public debt

transactions of the United States. Sums borrowed under this

subsection shall be deposited in the fund and redemption of such

notes and obligations shall be made by the Secretary from such

fund.

Sec. 291j-7. Loans to public facilities

-STATUTE-

(a) Interest rates; security; equitable geographical distribution

(1) Any loan made by the Secretary to a public agency under this

part for the modernization or construction of a public hospital or

other health facility shall require such public agency to pay

interest thereon at a rate comparable to the current rate of

interest prevailing with respect to loans, to nonprofit private

agencies, which are guaranteed under this part, for the

modernization or construction of similar facilities in the same or

similar areas, minus 3 per centum per annum.

(2)(A) No loan to a public agency shall be made under this part

unless -

(i) the Secretary is reasonably satisfied that such agency will

be able to make payments of principal and interest thereon when

due, and

(ii) such agency provides the Secretary with reasonable

assurances that there will be available to such agency such

additional funds as may be necessary to complete the project with

respect to which such loan is requested.

(B) Any loan to a public agency shall have such security, have

such maturity date, be repayable in such installments, and be

subject to such other terms and conditions (including provision for

recovery in case of default) as the Secretary determines to be

necessary to carry out the purposes of this part while adequately

protecting the financial interests of the United States.

(3) In making loans to public agencies under this part, the

Secretary shall give due regard to achieving an equitable

geographical distribution of such loans.

(b) Sale

(1) The Secretary shall from time to time, but with due regard to

the financial interests of the United States, sell loans referred

to in subsection (a)(1) of this section either on the private

market or to the Federal National Mortgage Association in

accordance with section 1717 of title 12.

(2) Any loan so sold shall be sold for an amount which is equal

(or approximately equal) to the amount of the unpaid principal of

such loan as of the time of sale.

(1) The Secretary is authorized to enter into an agreement with

the purchaser of any loan sold under this part under which the

Secretary agrees -

(A) to guarantee to such purchaser (and any successor in

interest to such purchaser) payment of the principal and interest

payable under such loan, and

(B) to pay as an interest subsidy to such purchaser (and any

successor in interest of such purchaser) amounts which when added

to the amount of interest payable on such loan, are equivalent to

a reasonable rate of interest on such loan as determined by the

Secretary, after taking into account the range of prevailing

interest rates in the private market on similar loans and the

risks assumed by the United States.

(2) Any such agreement -

(A) may provide that the Secretary shall act as agent of any

such purchaser, for the purpose of collecting from the public

agency to which such loan was made and paying over to such

purchaser, any payments of principal and interest payable by such

agency under such loan;

(B) may provide for the repurchase by the Secretary of any such

loan on such terms and conditions as may be specified in the

agreement;

public agency to which such loan was made in payment of principal

and interest due on such loan, the Secretary shall, upon

notification to the purchaser (or to the successor in interest of

such purchaser), have the option to close out such loan (and any

obligations of the Secretary with respect thereto) by paying to

the purchaser (or his successor in interest) the total amount of

outstanding principal and interest due thereon at the time of

such notification; and

(D) shall provide that, in the event such loan is closed out as

provided in subparagraph (C), or in the event of any other loss

incurred by the Secretary by reason of the failure of such public

agency to make payments of principal and interest on such loan,

the Secretary shall be subrogated to all rights of such purchaser

for recovery of such loss from such public agency.

(d) Right of recovery; waiver

The Secretary may, for good cause, waive any right of recovery

which he has against a public agency by reason of the failure of

such agency to make payments of principal and interest on a loan

made to such agency under this part.

(e) Interest and interest subsidies as gross income under Internal

Revenue Code

After any loan to a public agency under this part has been sold

and guaranteed, interest paid on such loan and any interest subsidy

paid by the Secretary with respect to such loan which is received

by the purchaser thereof (or his successor in interest) shall be

included in gross income for the purposes of chapter 1 of title 26.

(f) Sales proceeds; deposit and use

Amounts received by the Secretary as proceeds from the sale of

loans under this section shall be deposited in the loan fund

established by section 291j-6 of this title, and shall be available

to the Secretary for the making of further loans under this part in

accordance with the provisions of subsection (a)(2) of such

section.

(g) Authorization of appropriations

There is authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary, for

deposit in the loan fund established by section 291j-6 of this

title, $30,000,000 to provide initial capital for the making of
