PUBLIC LAW 101-161—NOV. 21, 1989 103 STAT. 969 for contracting with the National Rural Water Association or other equally qualified national organization for a circuit rider program to provide technical assistance for rural water systems: Provided fur- ther, That notwithstanding any other provision of law, $1,000,000 of this appropriation shall be available solely to carry out the Lower Mississippi Delta Development Act as incorporated by reference in Public Law 100-460, that all funds appropriated to carry out the purposes of the Lower Mississippi Delta Development Act shall be available for obligation and expenditure through September 30, 1990, or the date of expiration of the Commission, whichever shall occur first, and that notwithstanding section 10(a) of the Delta Development Act, the date for the submission of the Commission's interim report is extended to October 16, 1989: Provided further, That, in addition to any other authority that the Secretary may have to defer principal and interest and forego foreclosure, the Secretary may permit, at the request of the borrowers, the deferral of principal and interest on any outstanding loan made, insured, or held by the Secretary under this title, or under the provisions of any other law administered by the Farmers Home Administration, and may forego foreclosure of any such loan, for such period as the Secretary deems necessary upon a showing by the borrower that due to circumstances beyond the borrower's control, the borrower is temporarily unable to continue making payments of such principal and interest when due without unduly impairing the standard of living of the borrower. The Secretary may permit interest that accrues during the deferral period on any loan deferred under this section to bear no interest during or after such period: Provided, That, if the security instrument securing such loan is foreclosed, such interest as is included in the purchase price at such foreclosure shall become part of the principal and draw interest from the date of foreclosure at the rate prescribed by law. 42 USC 3121 note.
