SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C.

3501-220), the information collection requirements have been assigned

OMB Control Number 2502-0462.

I. Purpose and Substantive Description

A. Authority

Section 811 of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing

Act (the NAHA) (and as amended by the Housing and Community Development

Act of 1992) (HCD Act of 1992), authorized a new supportive housing

program for persons with disabilities and replaced assistance for

persons with disabilities previously covered by section 202 of the

Housing Act of 1959 (section 202 continues, as amended by section 801

of the NAHA, and HCD Act of 1992, to authorize supportive housing for

the elderly). The assistance is provided as capital advances and

contracts for project rental assistance in accordance with 24 CFR part

890. Capital advances may be used to finance the construction,

rehabilitation, or acquisition with or without rehabilitation,

including acquisition from the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC), of

structures to be developed into a variety of housing options ranging

from group homes and independent living facilities, to dwelling units

in multifamily housing developments, condominium housing and

cooperative housing. Acquisition without rehabilitation is permitted

only for group homes or properties acquired from the RTC. This

assistance may also cover the cost of real property acquisition, site

improvement, conversion, demolition, relocation, and other expenses

that the Secretary determines are necessary to expand the supply of

supportive housing for persons with disabilities.

For supportive housing for persons with disabilities, the

Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and

Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1994 (Pub. L. 103-124, enacted

October 28, 1993, (Fiscal Year 1994 Appropriations Act) provides

$387,000,000 for capital advances, for supportive housing for persons

with disabilities, as authorized by section 811 of the NAHA, and for

project rental assistance, and amendments to contracts for project

rental assistance, for supportive housing for persons with disabilities

as authorized by section 811 of the NAHA. Any unreserved balances

provided in prior years for such purposes are to be merged with amounts

provided in the Fiscal Year 1994 Appropriations Act. It should be noted

that although section 623 of the HCD Act of 1992 authorizes tenant-

based assistance for persons with disabilities, appropriations have not

been provided.

In accordance with an agreement between HUD and the Farmers Home

Administration (FmHA) which facilitates the coordination between the

two agencies in administering their respective rental assistance

programs, HUD is required to notify FmHA of applications for housing

assistance it receives. The purpose of this notification is to give

FmHA the opportunity to comment if it has concern about the demand for

additional assisted housing and possible harm to existing projects in

the same housing market area. HUD will consider the FmHA comments in

its review and project selection process.

B. Allocation Amounts

In accordance with 24 CFR part 791, the Assistant Secretary will

allocate the amounts available for capital advances for supportive

housing for persons with disabilities. The Department reserves project

rental assistance funds sufficient for 20-year project rental

assistance contracts in support of the units selected for capital

advances, consistent with current operating cost standards.

The allocation formula for section 811 funds consists of the

following two data elements:

1. A measure of the number of non-institutionalized persons age 16

or older with a work disability and a mobility or self-care limitation;

and

2. A measure of the number of non-institutionalized persons age 16

or older having a mobility or self-care limitation but having no work

disability.

Based on this formula, the Department has allocated the available

capital advance funds as shown on the following chart:

C. Eligibility

The only eligible applicants under this program are nonprofit

organizations with section 501(c)(3) tax exemptions from the Internal

Revenue Service. A single Sponsor shall not request more units in a

given Region than permitted for that Region in the Invitation.

D. Initial Screening, Technical Processing and Selection Criteria

1. Initial Screening

Applications for section 811 capital advances that are received by

HUD at the appropriate address by 4 p.m. local time on May 3, 1994,

will be reviewed to determine if all parts of the application are

included. HUD will not review the content of the application as part of

initial screening. Deficiency letters will be sent informing Sponsors

of any missing parts of the application. Sponsors must correct such

deficiencies within 14 calendar days from the date of the deficiency

letter. The deficiency letter is to be sent by certified mail. Any

document requested as a result of the initial screening may be executed

or prepared within the deficiency period, except for Forms HUD-92016-

CAs, Articles of Incorporation, IRS exemption rulings, Forms SF-424,

Board Resolution committing the minimum capital investment, and site

control documents (all of these excepted items must be dated no later

than the application deadline date).

2. Technical Processing

All applications will be placed in technical processing upon

receipt of the response to the deficiency letter or at the end of the

14-day period. All applications will undergo a complete analysis. If a

reviewer finds that clarification is needed to complete the review or

an exhibit is missing that was not requested after initial screening,

the reviewer shall immediately advise the Multifamily Housing

Representative who will: (a) Request, by telephone, that the Sponsor

submit the information within five (5) working days, and (b) follow up

by certified letter. Communications must be attached to the technical

review and findings memorandum. As part of this analysis, HUD will

conduct its environmental review in accordance with 24 CFR part 50 on

only those applications containing evidence of site control. Examples

of reasons for technical processing rejection include an ineligible

Sponsor, ineligible population to be served, lack of legal capacity and

insufficient commitments or indications that supportive services will

be available. The Secretary will not reject an application based on

technical processing without giving notice of that rejection with all

rejection reasons, and affording the applicant an opportunity to

appeal. An applicant will be afforded 14 calendar days from the date of

HUD's written notice to appeal a technical rejection to the Field

Office. The Field Office must respond within 5 working days to the

Sponsor. The Field Office shall make a determination on an appeal prior

to making its selection recommendations. All applications will be

either rated or Technically rejected at the end of technical

processing.

Technical processing will also assure that if the Sponsor has been

found by a court or by a Federal, State, or local agency, in

noncompliance with any of the statutes, regulations, or other

requirements listed in the civil rights certification

(Sec. 890.265(b)(9)(i)), HUD will obtain from the Sponsor a statement

of the actions taken to correct that noncompliance. There must be no

pending civil rights suits against the Sponsor instituted by the

Department of Justice and no pending administrative actions for civil

rights violations instituted by HUD. Moreover, there must not be a

deferral of the processing of applications from the Sponsor imposed by

HUD under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Department's

implementing regulations (24 CFR 1.8), procedures (HUD Handbook

8040.1), and the Attorney General's Guidelines (28 CFR 50.3); or under

section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Department's

implementing regulations (24 CFR 8.57), and the Americans with

Disabilities Act.

Upon completion of technical processing, all acceptable

applications will be rated according to the selection criteria in

Sec. 890.300(d) (also below in I.D.3). Applications which have a total

score of 50 points or more will be eligible for selection and will be

placed in rank order.

3. Selection Criteria

Applications for section 811 capital advances that successfully

complete technical processing will be rated using the following

selection criteria:

(a) The Sponsor's ability to develop and operate the proposed

housing on a long-term basis, considering the following (50 points

maximum):

(1) The scope, extent and quality of the Sponsor's experience in

providing housing or related services to those proposed to be served by

the project and the scope of the proposed project (i.e., number of

units, services, relocation costs, development, and operation) in

relationship to the Sponsor's demonstrated development and management

capacity. (32 points);

(2) The scope, extent and quality of the Sponsor's experience in

providing housing or related services to minority persons or families

(5 points);

(3) The scope, extent and quality of the Sponsor's experience in

providing opportunities for minority and women-owned business

enterprises participation (3 points); and

(4) The extent of local community support for the Sponsor's

activities, including previous experience in serving the area where the

in the area to be served, the extent to which the Sponsor has site

control, and the suitability of the site, considering (25 points):

(1) The extent of the need for the project in the area based on a

determination by the Field Office. This determination will be made by

taking into consideration the Sponsor's evidence of need in the area

based on the guidelines in Sec. 890.265(b)(18), as well as other

economic, demographic and housing market data available to the Field

Office. The data could include the availability of existing Federally

assisted housing (HUD and FmHA) for persons with disabilities and

current occupancy in such facilities, Federally assisted housing for

persons with disabilities under construction or for which fund

reservations have been issued and, in accordance with an agreement

between HUD and FmHA, comments from the FmHA on the demand for

additional assisted housing and the possible harm to existing projects

in the same housing market area (8 points);

(2) The proximity or accessibility of the site to shopping, medical

facilities, transportation, places of worship, recreational facilities,

places of employment, and other necessary services to the intended

occupants, adequacy of utilities and streets, freedom of the site from

adverse environmental conditions, and compliance with the site and

neighborhood standards (10 points);

(3) Suitability of the site from the standpoint of promoting a

greater choice of housing opportunities for minority persons with

disabilities (7 points); and

(4) Likelihood that Sponsor will have site control (if not already

in control of an approvable site) within six months of fund reservation

(yes or no);

(c) The adequacy of the provision of supportive services and of the

proposed facility considering (25 points maximum):

(1) The extent to which the Sponsor demonstrated that the

identified supportive services will be provided on a consistent long-

term basis (considering any limitations imposed by State or local

governments) - strength of commitments to fund or provide the

supportive services, or indications of the availability of supportive

services to project residents (10 points);

(2) The quality of the services implementation plan (10 points);

(3) The extent to which the proposed design will meet any special

needs of persons with disabilities the housing is intended to serve and

will accommodate the provision of any necessary on-site supportive

services for the proposed residents (5 points).

II. Application Process

All applications for Section 811 capital advances submitted by

eligible Sponsors must be filed with the appropriate HUD Field Office

receiving an allocation and must meet the requirements of this Notice.

No application will be accepted after 4 p.m. local time on May 3, 1994,

unless that date and time is extended by a Notice published in the

Federal Register. Applications received after that date and time will

not be accepted, even if postmarked by the deadline date. Applications

submitted by facsimile are not acceptable.

Immediately upon publication of this NOFA, if names have not

already been provided to the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse, Field

Offices shall notify minority media and media for persons with

disabilities, all persons and organizations on their mailing lists and

minority and other organizations within their jurisdiction involved in

housing and community development and groups with special interest in

housing for disabled households.

Organizations interested in applying for a section 811 capital

advance should contact the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse at 1-800-

955-2232 for a copy of the application package and advise the

appropriate Field Office whether they wish to attend the workshop

described below. HUD encourages minority organizations to participate

in this program as Sponsors. Field Offices will advise all

organizations on their mailing list of the date, time and place of

workshops at which the Section 811 Program will be explained.

HUD strongly recommends that prospective applicants attend the

local Field Office workshop. Interested persons with disabilities

should contact the Field Office to assure that any necessary

arrangements can be made for them to enable their attendance and

participation in the workshop. While strongly urged to do so, if

Sponsors cannot attend a workshop, Application Packages can be obtained

from the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse (see address and telephone

number under SUMMARY above). However, Sponsors must contact the

appropriate Field Office with any questions regarding the submission of

applications and for any additional application requirements.

At the workshops, application procedures and requirements will be

explained. Also, concerns such as local market conditions, building

codes, historic preservation, floodplain management, displacement and

relocation, zoning, housing costs and service plan requirements will be

addressed.

III. Application Submission Requirements

A. Application

Each application shall include all of the information, materials,

forms, and exhibits listed in section III. B. below, with the exception

of applications submitted by Sponsors selected for a Section 811 fund

reservation within the last three funding cycles, and must be indexed

and tabbed. Previously selected Section 811 Sponsors are not required

to submit the information described in B. 2. (a), (b) and (c) below

(Exhibit 2, a. b., and c. of the application which are the articles of

incorporation (or other organizational documents), by-laws, and the IRS

tax exemption, respectively). The Field Office will base its

determination of the eligibility of a new Sponsor for a reservation of

section 811 capital advance funds on the information provided in the

application. Field Offices will verify a Sponsor's indication of

previous HUD approval by checking the project number and approval

status with the appropriate Field Office. If there has been a change in

any of the eligibility documents since its previous HUD approval, the

Sponsor must submit the updated information in its application.

In addition to this relief of paperwork burden in preparing

applications, applicants will be able to utilize information and

exhibits previously prepared for prior applications under section 811,

section 202 or other funding programs. Examples of exhibits that may be

readily adapted or amended to decrease the burden of application

preparation include, among others, those on previous participation in

the section 202 or section 811 programs; applicant experience in the

provision of housing and services; supportive services plan; community

ties, and experience serving minorities.

B. General Application Requirements

1. Form HUD-92016-CA, Application for Section 811 Supportive

Housing Capital Advance.

[Note: A sponsor may apply for a scattered site project provided

each site contains the same facility type (e.g., group home,

independent living facility, condominium unit). If the sponsor

proposes a mix of facility types, it must submit one application per

facility type].

2. Evidence of each Sponsor's legal status as a nonprofit

organization, including the following:

(a) Articles of Incorporation, constitution, or other

organizational documents;

(b) By-laws;

(c) IRS section 501(c)(3) tax exemption ruling (this must be

submitted by all Sponsors, including churches). A nonprofit

organization organized in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and exempt

from income taxation under Puerto Rico law, has never been liable for

payment of Federal income taxes, and does not pay patronage dividends

may be exempt from the requirement set out in the previous sentence if

they are not eligible for tax exemption; and

(d) Resolution of the board, duly certified by an officer, that no

officer or director of the Sponsor or Owner has or will have any

financial interest in any contract with the Owner or in any firm or

corporation which has or will have a contract with the Owner and which

includes a current listing of all duly qualified and sitting officers

and directors by title and the ending date of each person's term.

[Note: Sponsors who have received a section 811 fund reservation

within the last three funding cycles are not required to submit the

documents described in (a), (b), and (c), above. Instead, sponsors

must submit the project number of the most recently selected

application and the field office to which it was submitted. If there

have been any modifications or additions to the subject documents,

indicate such, and submit the new material.]

3. CHAS certification. The Sponsor must submit a certification by

the jurisdiction in which the proposed project will be located that the

Sponsor's application is consistent with the jurisdiction's HUD-

approved CHAS for FY 1994. The certification must be made by the unit

of general local government if it is required to have, or has, a

complete CHAS. Otherwise the certification may be made by the State, or

if the project will be located in a unit of general local government

authorized to use an abbreviated strategy, by the unit of general local

government if it is willing to prepare such a CHAS.

All CHAS certifications must be made by the public official

responsible for submitting the CHAS to HUD. All CHAS certifications

must be submitted as part of the application by the application

submission deadline set forth in this NOFA, except as provided in the

next paragraph. The required CHAS must therefore have been submitted

more than 60 days before the application submission deadline, since HUD

has 60 days to review and approve the CHAS. Where the certification of

consistency is permitted to be submitted after the application

submission deadline, as described in the next paragraph, the CHAS must

be submitted for approval in time for the certification to be made by

the later date. In no event will an application be considered if the

CHAS has not been submitted for approval by the application submission

deadline.

If the required certification will be made by a unit of general

local government with respect to an abbreviated strategy, and such CHAS

has been submitted by the application submission deadline but has not

yet been approved by HUD, the deadline will not be applied to the

certification for consistency. Instead, the application must include a

written statement from the public official responsible for submitting

the CHAS that the jurisdiction has submitted an abbreviated strategy

for FY 1994 for HUD approval and that the application is consistent

with the CHAS. If HUD approved the CHAS, the required certification

that the application is consistent with a HUD-approved CHAS for FY 1994

must be submitted before June 2, 1994. An application will not be

selected for funding unless the CHAS is approved and the required

certification is made by June 2, 1994. The CHAS regulations are

published in 24 CFR part 91.

4. E.O. 12372. A certification that the Sponsor has submitted a

copy of its application, if required, to the State agency (single point

of contact) for State review in accordance with Executive Order 12372.

5. Supportive Services Certification. A certification from the

appropriate State or local agency that the provision of supportive

services is well designed to serve the special needs of persons with

disabilities (the name, address, and telephone number of the

appropriate agency can be obtained from the Field Office).

6. SF-424. A certification on SF-424, Application for Federal

Assistance, that the Sponsor(s) is not delinquent on the repayment of

any Federal debt.

7. Disclosure of Lobbying Activities. If the amount applied for is

greater than $100,000, the certification with regard to lobbying

required by 24 CFR part 87 must be included. If the amount applied for

is greater than $100,000 and the applicant has made or has agreed to

make any payment using nonappropriated funds for lobbying activity, as

described in 24 CFR part 87, the submission must also include SF-LLL,

Disclosure of Lobbying Activities. The applicant determines if the

submission of the SF-LLL form is applicable.

8. A statement that (a) identifies all persons (families,

individuals, businesses and nonprofit organizations (identified by

race/minority group, and status as owners or tenants) occupying the

property on the date of submission of the application for a capital

advance (or date of initial site control, if later); (b) indicates the

estimated cost of relocation payments and other services, and (c)

identifies the staff organization that will carry out the relocation

activities.

[Note: If any of the relocation costs will be funded from

sources other than the section 811 capital advance, the sponsor must

provide evidence of a firm commitment of these funds. When

evaluating applications, HUD will consider the total cost of

proposals (i.e., cost of site acquisition, relocation, construction

and other project costs).]

9. Additional Certifications.

(a) A certification of the Sponsor(s)' intent to comply with

section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794) and the

implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 8; the Fair Housing Act (42

U.S.C. 3600-3619) and the implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 100,

regulations at 41 CFR Chapter 60; the regulations implementing

Executive Order 11063 (Equal Opportunity in Housing) at 24 CFR part

107; the Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) to

sufficient resources to the Owner to insure the development and long-

term operation of the project, including capitalizing the Owner at

conditional commitment processing in an amount sufficient to meet its

obligations in connection with the project.

(f) A certification that the Sponsor will comply with the

requirements of the Lead-Based Point Poisoning Prevention Act (42

U.S.C. 4821-4846) and implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 35

minority and women-owned businesses, including a summary of the total

amount awarded in each of the two categories for the preceding three

years and the percentage that amount represents of the total contracts

awarded by the Sponsor in the relevant time period.

14. A certified Board Resolution, acknowledging responsibilities of

sponsorship, long-term support of the project(s), willingness of

Sponsor to assist the Owner to develop, own, manage and provide

appropriate services in connection with the proposed project, and that

it reflects the will of its membership. Also, evidence, in the form of

a certified Board Resolution, of the Sponsor's willingness to fund the

estimated start-up expenses, the Minimum Capital Investment (one-half

of one-percent of the HUD-approved capital advance, not to exceed

$10,000) (see 890.250), and the estimated cost of any amenities or

features (and operating costs related thereto) which would not be

coverd by the approved capital advance.

15. A list of the applications, if any, the Sponsor has submitted

or is planning to submit to any other Field Office in response to this

NOFA or the NOFA for Supportive Housing for the Elderly (published

elsewhere in today's Federal Register). Indicate by Field Office, the

number of units requested, and the proposed location by city and State

for each application. A list of all FY 1993 and prior year projects to

which the Sponsor(s) is a party, identified by project number and Field

Office, which have not been finally closed.

16. HUD-2880, Applicant/Recipient Disclosure/Update Report

including Social Security Numbers and Employee Identification Numbers.

17. Evidence of need for supportive housing. An identification of

the proposed population and evidence demonstrating sustained effective

demand for the housing for the proposed population in the area to be

served, such as a description of market conditions in existing

Federally assisted housing for persons with disabilities (occupancy,

waiting lists, etc.), state or local needs assessments of persons with

disabilities in the area, the types of supportive services arrangements

currently available in the area, and the utilization of such services

as evidenced by data from local social service agencies.

18. Evidence of control of an approvable site, or identification of

a site for which the Sponsor provides reasonable assurances that it

will obtain control within 6 months from the date of fund reservation

(if Sponsor is approved for funding);

(a) If the Sponsor has control of the site, it must submit the

following information:

(1) Evidence that the Sponsor has entered into a legally binding

option agreement to purchase or lease the proposed site; or has a copy

of the contract of sale for the site, a deed, long-term leasehold, a

request with all supporting documentation, submitted either prior to or

with the Application for Capital Advance, for a partial release of a

site covered by a mortgage under a HUD program or other evidence of

legal ownership of the site (including properties to be acquired from

the RTC). The option agreement period must extend through the end of

the current fiscal year and contain a renewal provision so that the

option can be renewed for at least an additional six months. The

Sponsor must also identify any restrictive covenants, including

reverter clauses. In the case of a site to be acquired from a public

body, evidence that the public body possesses clear title to the site,

and has entered into a legally binding agreement to lease or convey the

site to the Sponsor after it receives and accepts a notice of section

811 capital advance and identification of any restrictive covenants,

including reverter clauses. However, in localities where HUD determines

that the time constraints of the funding round will not permit all of

the required official actions (e.g., approval of Community Planning

Boards) which are necessary to convey publicly-owned sites, a letter in

the application from the Mayor or Director of the appropriate local

agency indicating their approval of conveyance of the site contingent

upon the necessary approval action is acceptable and may be approved by

the Field Office if it has satisfactory experience with timely

conveyance of sites from that public body. In such cases, documentation

shall also include a copy of the public body's evidence of ownership

and identification of any restrictive covenants, including reverter

clauses. For properties to be acquired from the RTC, include a copy of

the RTC prepared Transaction Screen Checklist or Phase I Environmental

Site Assessment, and applicable documentation, per the RTC

Environmental Guidelines.

[Note: A proposed project site may not be acquired or optioned

from a general contractor (or its affiliate) which will construct

IV. Additional Information

A. Sites

The National Affordable Housing Act requires Sponsors submitting

applications for section 811 fund reservations to provide either (a)

evidence of site control, or (b) reasonable assurances that it will

have control of a site within 6 months of notification of fund

reservation. Accordingly, if a Sponsor has control of a site at the

time it submits its application, it must include evidence of such as

described in Sec. 890.265. If it does not have site control, it must

provide the information required in Sec. 890.265 as a reasonable

assurance that site control will be obtained within 6 months of fund

reservation notification.

Sponsors may select a site different from the one(s) submitted in

their original applications if the original site is not approvable.

Selection of a different site will require HUD performance of an

environmental review on the new site, which could result in rejection

of that site. However, if a Sponsor does not have site control for any

reason 12 months after notification of fund reservation, the assistance

will be recaptured and reallocated.

Sponsors submitting satisfactory evidence of an approvable site

(i.e., site control) will compete against each other in Category A.

Sponsors submitting proper identification of a site will compete

against each other in Category B. HUD first shall select applications

in the descending order of funding priority from Category A that most

closely approximates the capital advance authority provided to the

allocation area. If capital advance authority remains after selecting

all approvable applications from Category A, HUD shall then select

applications in the descending order of funding priority from Category

B that most closely approximates the capital advance authority

remaining in the allocation area.

Applications containing evidence of site control where either the

evidence or the site is not approvable will not be rejected provided

the application indicates the Sponsor's willingness to select another

site and an assurance that site control will be obtained within six

months of fund reservation notification. Such applications will compete

for selection in Category B. However, only those applications where the

evidence of site control was not approvable will be eligible to receive

any of the possible 17 points under selection criteria (b) (2) and (3)

(see I.D.3.(b) (2) and (3) above). Applications where the site was

rejected will receive 0 points under selection criteria (b) (2) and

(3).

In the case of a scattered site application submitted with evidence

of site control for all of the sites, the evidence must be satisfactory

for each site and all the sites must be approvable for the application

to compete in Category A. If such an application does not fulfill this

requirement, it will be placed in Category B and will be eligible to

receive a prorated share of the 17 points possible under selection

criteria (b) (2) and (3) based on the number of sites that are

approvable. The same applies to a scattered site application in which

the Sponsor has control of some of the sites and has identified others.

It would also be considered in Category B and would be eligible for a

prorated share of the 17 points as stated above.

V. Other Matters

A. Environmental Impact

A Finding of No Significant Impact with respect to the environment

has been made in accordance with HUD regulations that implement section

102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42 U.S.C.

4332. The Finding of No Significant Impact is available for public

inspection during business hours in the Office of the Rules Docket

Clerk, Office of General Counsel, room 10276, Department of Housing and

Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, Southwest, Washington, DC 20410.

B. Federalism Executive Order

The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under section 6(a)

of Executive Order No. 12612, Federalism, has determined that this NOFA

does not have substantial direct effects on States or their political

subdivisions, or on the relationship between the Federal government and

the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among

the various levels of government. This NOFA merely notifies the public

of the availability of capital advances for supportive housing for

persons with disabilities.

C. Family Executive Order

The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under Executive

Order No. 12606, The Family, has determined that this NOFA does not

significantly affect family formation, maintenance, or general well-

being, and, thus, is not subject to review under the order.

D. Accountability in the Provision of HUD Assistance

HUD has promulgated a final rule to implement section 102 of the

Department of Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (HUD

Reform Act). The final rule is codified at 24 CFR part 12. Section 102

contains a number of provisions that are designed to ensure greater

accountability and integrity in the provision of certain types of

assistance administered by HUD. On January 14, 1992, HUD published at

57 FR 1942, additional information that gave the public (including

applicants for, and recipients of, HUD assistance) further information

on the implementation, public access, and disclosure requirements of

section 102. The documentation, public access, and disclosure

requirements of section 102 are applicable to assistance awarded under

this NOFA as follows:

1. Documentation and Public Access

HUD will ensure documentation and other information regarding each

application submitted pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to indicate

the basis upon which assistance was provided or denied. This material,

including any letters of support, will be made available for public

inspection for a five-year period beginning not less than 30 days after

the award of the assistance. Material will be made available in

accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and HUD's

implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In addition, HUD will

include the recipients of assistance pursuant to this NOFA in its

quarterly Federal Register notice of all recipients of HUD assistance

awarded on a competitive basis. (See 24 CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b), and

the notice published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR

1942), for further information on these requirements.)

2. Disclosures

HUD will make available to the public for five years all applicant

disclosure reports (HUD Form 2880) submitted in connection with this

NOFA. Update reports (also Form 2880) will be made available along with

the applicant disclosure reports, but in no case for a period less than

three years. All reports--both applicant disclosures and updates--will

be made available in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5

U.S.C. 552) and HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. (See

24 CFR subpart C, and the notice published in the Federal Register on

January 16, 1992 (57 FR 1942), for further information on these

disclosure requirements.)

E. Documentation and Public Access Requirements: HUD Reform Act

HUD will ensure that documentation and other information regarding

each application submitted pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to

indicate the basis upon which assistance was provided or denied. This

material, including any letters of support, will be made available for

public inspection for a five-year period beginning not less than 30

days after the award of the assistance. Material will be made available

in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and

HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In addition, HUD will

include the recipients of assistance pursuant to this NOFA in its

quarterly Federal Register notice of all recipients of HUD assistance

awarded on a competitive basis. (See CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b), and the

notice published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR

1942), for further information on these requirements.)

F. Section 103

HUD's regulation implementing section 103 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 was published May 13,

1991 (56 FR 22088) and became effective on June 12, 1991. That

regulation, codified as 24 CFR part 4, applies to the funding

competition announced today. The requirements of the rule continue to

apply until the announcement of the selection of successful applicants.

HUD employees involved in the review of applications and in the

making of funding decisions are restrained by Part 4 from providing

advance information to any person (other than an authorized employee of

HUD) concerning funding decisions, or from otherwise giving any

applicant an unfair competitive advantage. Persons who apply for

assistance in this competition should confine their inquiries to the

subject areas permitted under 24 CFR part 4.

Applicants who have questions should contact the HUD Office of

Ethics (202) 708-3815 (TDD/Voice). (This is not a toll-free number.)

The Office of Ethics can provide information of a general nature to HUD

employees, as well. However, a HUD employee who has specific program

questions, such as whether particular subject matter can be discussed

with persons outside the Department, should contact his or her Regional

or Field Office Counsel, or Headquarters counsel for the program to

which the question pertains.

G. Lobbying

Section 13 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act

(42 U.S.C. 3537b) contains two provisions dealing with efforts to

influence HUD's decisions with respect to financial assistance. The

first imposes disclosure requirements on those who are typically

involved in these efforts--those who pay others to influence the award

of assistance or the taking of a management action by the Department

and those who are paid to provide the influence. The second restricts

the payment of fees to those who are paid to influence the award of HUD

assistance, if the fees are tied to the number of housing units

received or are based on the amount of assistance received, or if they

are contingent upon the receipt of assistance.

Section 13 was implemented by final rule published in the Federal

Register on May 17, 1991 (56 FR 22912). If readers are involved in any

efforts to influence the Department in these ways, they are urged to

read the final rule, particularly the examples contained in Appendix A

of the rule.

Any questions regarding the rule should be directed to the

Director, Office of Ethics, Room 2158, Department of Housing and Urban

Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410. Telephone:

(202) 708-3815 TDD/Voice). (This is not a toll-free number.) Forms

necessary for compliance with the rule may be obtained from the local

HUD office.

H. Prohibition Against Lobbying Activities

The use of funds awarded under this NOFA is subject to the

disclosure requirements and prohibitions of Section 319 of the

Department of Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Act for

Fiscal Year 1990 (31 U.S.C. 1352) (the ``Byrd Amendment'') and the

implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 87. These authorities prohibit

recipients of federal contracts, grants or loans from using

appropriated funds for lobbying the Executive or Legislative Branches

of the Federal Government in connection with a specific contract, grant

or loan. The prohibition also covers the awarding of contracts, grants,

cooperative agreements or loans unless the recipient has made an

acceptable certification regarding lobbying. Under 24 CFR part 87,

applicants, recipients and subrecipients of assistance exceeding

$100,000 must certify that no federal funds have been or will be spent

on lobbying activities in connection with the assistance.
