L. 110-289), as a competitive grant program administered by the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI Fund). Through CMF, the CDFI Fund provides federal financial assistance to Certified Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) and qualified Nonprofit Organizations that have the development or management of Affordable Housing, as defined in 12 CFR 1807, as amended (effective June 25, 2024), as one of their principal purposes. CMF Awards must be used to attract private financing for and increase investment in: (i) the Development, Preservation, Rehabilitation, and Purchase of Affordable Housing for primarily Extremely Low-, Very Low-, and Low-Income Families; and (ii) Economic Development Activities which, in conjunction with Affordable Housing Activities, will implement a Concerted Strategy to stabilize or revitalize a Low-Income Area or an Underserved Rural Area. CMF Award Recipients enter into Assistance Agreements with the CDFI Fund that set forth required terms and conditions of the Award, including reporting and data collection requirements. The Assistance Agreement requires the submission of an annual CMF Performance Report, and if applicable, the submission of an Environmental Review Form 180 days prior to issuing a Commitment for a project. <E T="03">Form:</E> CMF Performance Report, CMF Environmental Review. <E T="03">Affected Public:</E> Certified Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) and qualified Nonprofit Organizations. <E T="03">Estimated Number of Respondents:</E> 386. <E T="03">Frequency of Response:</E> Annually. <E T="03">Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses:</E> 391. <E T="03">Estimated Time per Response:</E> 20 hours for the Performance Report and 30 minutes for the Environmental Review Form. <E T="03">Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours:</E> 7,723. <E T="03">Authority:</E> <E T="03">44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.</E> <SIG> <NAME>Spencer W.
