<p>This final rule will implement changes to the Disaster Loan Program regulations. For applications for COVID EIDL loans, in this rule SBA is changing the definition of affiliation, the eligible uses of loan proceeds, how to apply the size standard to certain hard-hit eligible entities and establishing a maximum loan limit for borrowers in a single corporate group. In addition, for all disaster assistance programs, in this rule SBA is changing which SBA official may make the decision on the appeal of an application that has been declined for a second time.&nbsp;</p>
