Summary

Grants made under this law that are put, directly or indirectly, into certain small investment companies (including local development companies and small business investment company licensees under section 681(d) of Title 15) must be treated as paid-in capital or paid-in surplus for the rules in sections 682, 683, and 696 of Title 15. The Administrator of the Small Business Administration must, within 90 days after August 13, 1981 and after consulting the Secretary, write rules to make sure community development corporations can use these programs, including those under section 637(a) of Title 15. Areas chosen for help under this law will count as “redevelopment areas” under section 401 of the Public Works and Economic Development Act of 1965. They will be eligible for assistance under Title I and Title II of that Act and will be treated as meeting the overall economic development program requirement in section 202(b)(10). The Secretary of Commerce must, within 90 days after August 13, 1981, issue rules so community development corporations and cooperatives can get help from Economic Development Administration programs that support this law.
