SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with 56 FR 23789 (May 24,

1991) and section 501 of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance

Act (42 U.S.C. 11411), as amended, HUD is publishing this Notice to

identify Federal buildings and other real property that HUD has

reviewed for suitability for use to assist the homeless. The properties

were reviewed using information provided to HUD by Federal landholding

agencies regarding unutilized and underutilized buildings and real

property controlled by such agencies or by GSA regarding its inventory

of excess or surplus Federal property. This Notice is also published

[[Page 4183]] in order to comply with the December 12, 1988 Court Order

in National Coalition for the Homeless v. Veterans Administration, No.

88-2503-OG (D.D.C.).

Properties reviewed are listed in this Notice according to the

following categories: Suitable/available, suitable/unavailable,

suitable/to be excess, and unsuitable. The properties listed in the

three suitable categories have been reviewed by the landholding

agencies, and each agency has transmitted to HUD: (1) Its intention to

make the property available for use to assist the homeless, (2) its

intention to declare the property excess to the agency's needs, or (3)

a statement of the reasons that the property cannot be declared excess

or made available for use as facilities to assist the homeless.

Properties listed as suitable/available will be available

exclusively for homeless use for a period of 60 days from the date of

this Notice. Homeless assistance providers interested in any such

property should send a written expression of interest to HHS, addressed

to Judy Breitman, Division of Health Facilities Planning, U.S. Public

Health Service, HHS, room 17A-10, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD

20857; (301) 443-2265. (This is not a toll-free number.) HHS will mail

to the interested provider an application packet, which will include

instructions for completing the application. In order to maximize the

opportunity to utilize a suitable property, providers should submit

their written expressions of interest as soon as possible. For complete

details concerning the processing of applications, the reader is

encouraged to refer to the interim rule governing this program, 56 FR

23789 (May 24, 1991).

For properties listed as suitable/to be excess, that property may,

if subsequently accepted as excess by GSA, be made available for use by

the homeless in accordance with applicable law, subject to screening

for other Federal use. At the appropriate time, HUD will publish the

property in a Notice showing it as either suitable/available or

suitable/unavailable.

For properties listed as suitable/unavailable, the landholding

agency has decided that the property cannot be declared excess or made

available for use to assist the homeless, and the property will not be

available.

Properties listed as unsuitable will not be made available for any

other purpose for 20 days from the date of this Notice. Homeless

assistance providers interested in a review by HUD of the determination

of unsuitability should call the toll free information line at 1-800-

927-7588 for detailed instructions or write a letter to William Molster

at the address listed at the beginning of this Notice. Included in the

request for review should be the property address (including zip code),

the date of publication in the Federal Register, the landholding

agency, and the property number.

this Notice (i.e., acreage, floor plan, existing sanitary facilities,
