SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is

    The Federal Register notice that solicited public comment on the

September 21, 2016 at 81 FR 64930.

I. Background

    As noted in the Summary, elsewhere in today's Federal Register, HUD 
is publishing its final rule entitled ``Equal Access in Accordance with 
an Individual's Gender Identity in Community Planning and Development 
Programs.'' Through this final rule, HUD ensures equal access to 
individuals in accordance with their gender identity in programs and 
shelter funded under programs administered by HUD's Office of Community 
Planning and Development (CPD). This rule builds upon HUD's February 
2012 final rule entitled ``Equal Access to Housing in HUD Programs 
Regardless of Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity'' (2012 Equal 
Access Rule), which aimed to ensure that HUD's housing programs would 
be open to all eligible individuals and families regardless of sexual 
orientation, gender identity, or marital status. The 2012 Equal Access 
Rule, however, did not address how transgender and gender non-
conforming individuals should be accommodated in temporary, emergency 
shelters and other buildings and facilities used for shelter that have 
physical limitations or configurations that require and that are 
permitted to have shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing 
facilities.\1\ This final rule published in today's Federal Register 
follows HUD's November 20, 2015 proposed rule, which addressed this 
issue after soliciting public comment. The final rule requires that 
recipients and subrecipients of CPD funding, as well as owners, 
operators, and managers of shelters, and other buildings and facilities 
and providers of services funded in whole or in part by any CPD program 
to grant equal access to such facilities, and other buildings and 
facilities, benefits, accommodations and services to individuals in 
accordance with the individual's gender identity, and in a manner that 
affords equal access to the individual's family.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Shared sleeping quarters and shared bathing facilities are 
those for simultaneous use by more than one person.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The notice set out in the appendix presents an additional measure 
by HUD to ensure that individuals seeking placement or accommodation in 
a shelter or other building or facility and housing funded under a 
program administered by CPD are aware of HUD's equal access policy, as 
established in HUD's 2012 Equal Access Rule, and elaborated upon in the 
final rule published in today's Federal Register. Through this PRA 
notice, HUD proposes to require owners and operators of CPD-funded 
shelters, housing, buildings and other facilities to post this notice 
on bulletin boards and in other public places where individuals staying 
in the shelter, building, housing or facility or seeking placement or 
accommodation in the shelter, building, housing, or facility would see 
this information. HUD strives to reduce burden by providing the content 
of the notice to be posted and estimates it will take about six minutes 
for owners and operators to print and post this notice. All existing 
and new owners would be required to post the notice only once, and 
ensure that it remains visible to those accessing the shelter, housing, 
or facility.

A. Overview of Information Collection

elaborated upon in the final rule published in today's Federal 
Register.
