State agency of a request for Federal findings on a form furnished by 
the State agency, and prescribed by the Department, a Federal agency 
shall make such Federal findings, complete all copies of the form, and 
transmit the completed copies to the State agency. If documents 
necessary for completion of the form have been assigned to an agency 
records center or the Federal Records Center in St. Louis, the Federal 
agency shall obtain the necessary information from the records center. 
Any records center shall give priority to such a request.
    (b) Failure to meet time limit. If a completed form containing the 
Federal agency's findings cannot be returned within four workdays of 
receipt, the Federal agency immediately shall inform the State agency, 
and shall include an estimated date by which the completed form will be 
returned.
    (c) Administrative control. Each Federal agency shall maintain a 
control of all requests for Federal findings received by it, and the 
Federal agency's response to each request. The records shall be 
maintained so as to enable the Federal agency to ascertain at any time 
the number of such forms that
