Abstract:
In order to facilitate the programmatic interest of the RE act, and, in order to assure that loans made or guaranteed by RUS are adequately secured, RUS, as a secured lender, has established certain forms for materials, equipment and construction of telecommunications systems. The use of standard forms, construction contracts, and procurement procedures help assure RUS that appropriate standards and specifications are maintained, RUS' loan security is not adversely affected; and the loan and loan guarantee funds are used effectively and for the intended purposes.
