Notice of Regulatory Waiver Requests Granted for the Fourth 
Quarter of Calendar Year 2017; Notice

AGENCY: Office of the General Counsel, HUD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Section 106 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development 
Reform Act of 1989 (the HUD Reform Act) requires HUD to publish 
quarterly Federal Register notices of all regulatory waivers that HUD 
has approved. Each notice covers the quarterly period since the 
previous Federal Register notice. The purpose of this notice is to 
comply with the requirements of section 106 of the HUD Reform Act. This 
notice contains a list of regulatory waivers granted by HUD during the 
period beginning on October 1, 2017, and ending on December 31, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For general information about this 
notice, contact Ariel Pereira, Associate General Counsel for 
Legislation and Regulations, Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 10282, Washington, DC 20410-
0500, telephone 202-708-3055 (this is not a toll-free number). Persons 
with hearing- or speech-impairments may access this number through TTY 
by calling the toll-free Federal Relay Service at 800-877-8339.
    For information concerning a particular waiver that was granted and 
for which public notice is provided in this document, contact the 
person whose name and address follow the description of the waiver 
granted in the accompanying list of waivers that have been granted in 
the fourth quarter of calendar year 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 106 of the HUD Reform Act added a 
new section 7(q) to the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act 
(42 U.S.C. 3535(q)), which provides that:
    1. Any waiver of a regulation must be in writing and must specify 
the grounds for approving the waiver;
    2. Authority to approve a waiver of a regulation may be delegated 
by the Secretary only to an individual of Assistant Secretary or 
equivalent rank, and the person to whom authority to waive is delegated 
must also have authority to issue the particular regulation to be 
waived;
    3. Not less than quarterly, the Secretary must notify the public of 
all waivers of regulations that HUD has approved, by publishing a 
notice in the Federal Register. These notices (each covering the period 
since the most recent previous notification) shall:
    a. Identify the project, activity, or undertaking involved;
    b. Describe the nature of the provision waived and the designation 
of the provision;
    c. Indicate the name and title of the person who granted the waiver 
request;
    d. Describe briefly the grounds for approval of the request; and
    e. State how additional information about a particular waiver may 
be obtained.
    Section 106 of the HUD Reform Act also contains requirements 
applicable to waivers of HUD handbook provisions that are not relevant 
to the purpose of this notice.
    This notice follows procedures provided in HUD's Statement of 
Policy on Waiver of Regulations and Directives issued on April 22, 1991 
(56 FR 16337). In accordance with those procedures and with the 
requirements of section 106 of the HUD Reform Act, waivers of 
regulations are granted by the Assistant Secretary with jurisdiction 
over the regulations for which a waiver was requested. In those cases 
in which a General Deputy Assistant Secretary granted the waiver, the 
General Deputy Assistant Secretary was serving in the absence of the 
Assistant Secretary in accordance with the office's Order of 
Succession.
    This notice covers waivers of regulations granted by HUD from 
October 1, 2017 through December 30, 2017. For ease of reference, the 
waivers granted by HUD are listed by HUD program office (for example, 
the Office of Community Planning and Development, the Office of Fair 
Housing and Equal Opportunity, the Office of Housing, and the Office of 
Public and Indian Housing, etc.). Within each program office grouping, 
the waivers are listed sequentially by the regulatory section of title 
24 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) that is being waived. For 
example, a waiver of a provision in 24 CFR part 58 would be listed 
before a waiver of a provision in 24 CFR part 570.
    Where more than one regulatory provision is involved in the grant 
of a particular waiver request, the action is listed under the section 
number of the first regulatory requirement that appears in 24 CFR and 
that is being waived. For example, a waiver of both Sec.  58.73 and 
Sec.  58.74 would appear sequentially in the listing under Sec.  58.73.
    Waiver of regulations that involve the same initial regulatory 
citation are in time sequence beginning with the earliest-dated 
regulatory waiver.
    Should HUD receive additional information about waivers granted 
during the period covered by this report (the fourth quarter of 
calendar year 2017) before the next report is published (the first 
quarter of calendar year 2018), HUD will include any additional waivers 
granted for the fourth quarter in the next report.
    Accordingly, information about approved waiver requests pertaining 
to HUD regulations is provided in the Appendix that follows this 
notice.

    Dated: April 5, 2018.
J. Paul Compton, Jr.,
General Counsel.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 58.22(a).
    Project/Activity: HUD Grantee/Cities of Eugene and Springfield, 
Oregon--Glenwood Place Project, Springfield, OR.
    Nature of Requirement: Section 58.22(a) provides that ``Neither 
a recipient nor any participant in the development process, 
including public or private nonprofit or for-profit entities, or any 
of their contractors, may commit HUD assistance under a program 
listed in Sec. 58.1(b) on an activity or project until HUD or the 
state has approved the recipient's RROF and the related 
certification from the responsible entity. ``In addition, until the 
RROF and the related certification have been approved, neither a 
recipient nor any participant in the development process may commit 
non-HUD funds on or undertake an activity or project under a program 
listed in Sec. 58.1(b) if the activity or project would have an 
adverse environmental impact or limit the choice of reasonable 
alternatives.''
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: December 12, 2017

[[Page 15707]]

    Reason Waived: The Office of Environment and Energy determined 
in accordance with 24 CFR 58.1(d), that good cause exist to waive 
the second sentence of 24 CFR 58.22(a) requiring advance approval of 
an RROF and the related certification before non-HUD funds may be 
expended or a choice-limiting activity undertaken. The HUD Region 10 
Regional Environment Officer also recommended this waiver for 
approval.
    In accordance with 24 CFR 58.1(d), the OEE submits that there is 
good cause for waiving the second sentence of 24 CFR 58.22(a) in 
that:
    (1) The above project will further the HUD mission. It will 
advance HUD program goals to create strong, sustainable, inclusive 
communities. The project will remove blighted structures from the 
community and reduce the risk to public health from soil 
contamination left by previous uses.
    (2) No HUD funds were committed or spent. CPD staff confirmed 
that no HUD funds have been drawn down by the grantees for projects.
    (3) Based on the environmental assessment conducted, reviewed, 
and approved by the City of Eugene, Oregon and the City of 
Springfield, Oregon and the HUD field inspection, there is agreement 
that no adverse environmental impacts exist.
    (4) The State Historic Preservation Officer determined in 
November 2014, that the demolition of the existing home on the 
property did not represent an adverse effect on a historic property.
    (5) The staff of the Housing and Community Services Agency of 
Lane County and the Cities of Springfield and Eugene have attended 
training by the Regional Environmental Officer for Region 10 to 
better understand the role of environmental reviews in the 
grantmaking process.
    Contact: James M. Potter, Environmental Planning Division, 
Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing 
and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 7212, Washington, 
DC 20410, telephone (202) 402-4610.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 91.105(c)(2) and (k).
    Project/Activity: Citizen Participation Plan Requirements San 
Diego County, California, requested a waiver of the 30-day public 
comment period for substantial amendments to the Consolidated Plan 
required by 24 CFR 91.105(c)(2) and (k) to allow the county to 
address a critical health issue in a timely manner.
    Nature of Requirement: In accordance with 24 CFR 91.105(c)(2) 
and (k), a grantee may amend an approved Consolidated Plan, such as 
the addition of new activities, subject to the citizen participation 
process in a grantee's citizen participation plan. The citizen 
participation plan must provide citizens with not less than 30 days 
to comment on substantial amendments.
    Granted By: Neal J. Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 27, 2017.
    Reason Waived: The county was experiencing a severe hepatitis A 
outbreak linked to the unsanitary conditions in homeless encampments 
throughout the county. To address the hepatitis A epidemic, the 
county wished to amend its Consolidated Plan to enable it to use 
HOME funds to provide tenant-based rental assistance to homeless 
individuals. Under the citizen participation plan requirements at 24 
CFR 91.105(c)(1)(i), the county's revision to its Consolidated Plan 
constituted a substantial amendment requiring the county to provide 
at least a 30-day public comment period. The Department waived 24 
CFR 91.105(c)(2) and (k) to permit the county to reduce the public 
comment period from 30 to seven days to balance the need to quickly 
address a public health crisis with the requirement to provide a 
reasonable notice and opportunity to comment on the proposed use of 
HOME funds.
    Contact: Virginia Sardone, Director, Office of Affordable 
Housing Programs, Office of Community Planning and Development, 
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, 
Room 10170, Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708-2684.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 91.105(c)(2) and (k), 24 CFR 
91.115(c)(2) and (i) and 24 CFR 91.401.
    Project/Activity: Numerous communities throughout the southern 
United States extending from Texas to the Caribbean experienced 
substantial property damage resulting from Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, 
and Maria from August through September 2017. Starting in late 
August, 2017, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) issued 
disaster declarations covering multiple cities and counties in 
Texas, the entire states of Florida and Georgia, the U.S. Virgin 
Islands and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Grantees seeking to 
facilitate assistance for eligible communities and families affected 
by the hurricanes requested the ability to shorten their citizen 
comment periods to seven days so that they may quickly reallocate 
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment 
Partnerships Program (HOME), Housing Opportunities for Persons With 
AIDS (HOPWA), and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funds.
    Nature of Requirement: The regulations at 24 CFR 91.105(c)(2) 
and (k), 24 CFR 91.115(c)(2) and (i) and 24 CFR 91.401 require a 30-
day public comment period prior to the implementation of a 
substantial amendment.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: Several CPD grantees were affected by Hurricanes 
Harvey, Irma, and Maria that caused severe flooding and wind damage 
resulting in substantial property loss and destruction. 
Presidentially-declared disaster declarations were issued on August 
25, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4332); September 10, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4336 and 
FEMA-DR-4337) and September 15, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4338); and September 
20, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4339) for Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria, 
respectively. The waiver granted will allow grantees to expedite 
recovery efforts for low and moderate income residents affected by 
the flooding and severe wind damage from these events.
    Contact: Steve Johnson, Director, Entitlement Communities 
Division, Office of Community Planning and Development, Department 
of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 7282, 
Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 402-4548.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 91.105(c)(2) and (k) and 24 CFR 
91.115(c)(2) and (i).
    Project/Activity: The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the U.S. 
Virgin Islands experienced substantial property damage resulting 
from Hurricanes Irma and Maria in September 2017. Starting in early 
September, 2017, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) 
issued disaster declarations eventually covering the entire U.S. 
Virgin Islands and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Grantees in 
these jurisdictions seeking to expedite assistance for residents and 
businesses affected by the hurricanes and to quickly reallocate 
CDBG, HOME, HOPWA, and ESG funds found property and living 
conditions made it difficult to provide reasonable notice in 
accordance with their citizen participation plans.
    Nature of Requirement: The regulations at 24 CFR 91.105(c)(2) 
and (k) and 24 CFR 91.115(c)(2) and (i) require grantees to provide 
reasonable notice and opportunity to comment, in accordance with a 
grantee's citizen participation plan, for substantial amendments to 
the consolidated plan. The citizen participation plan must state how 
reasonable notice and opportunity to comment will be given.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: HUD recognizes that the destruction wrought by 
Hurricanes Irma and Maria make it difficult for impacted 
jurisdictions in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin 
Islands to provide notice to their citizens in accordance with their 
citizen participation plans. Given these circumstances, HUD's waiver 
will allow these grantees to determine what constitutes reasonable 
notice and opportunity to comment on substantial amendments through 
the end of their 2017 program year.
    Contact: Steve Johnson, Director, Entitlement Communities 
Division, Office of Community Planning and Development, Department 
of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW., Room 7282, 
Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 402-4548.
     Regulation: 24 CFR 92.203(a)(1) and (2) and 24 CFR 
92.64(a) (Virgin Islands)
    Project/Activity: Several HOME participating jurisdictions were 
affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria that caused severe 
flooding and wind damage resulting in substantial property loss and 
destruction. Presidentially-declared disaster declarations were 
issued on August 25, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4332); September 10, 2017, 
(FEMA-DR-4336 and FEMA-DR-4337) and September 15, 2017, (FEMA-DR-
4338); and September 20, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4339) for Hurricanes Harvey, 
Irma, and Maria, respectively. Many families whose homes were 
destroyed or damaged by the hurricanes will not have any 
documentation of income,

[[Page 15708]]

as required by the HOME regulations, and thus, will not be able to 
qualify for HOME assistance.
    Nature of Requirements: 24 CFR 92.203(a)(1) and (2) and 24 CFR 
92.64(a) require initial income determinations for HOME 
beneficiaries be made after examining source documents covering the 
most recent two months of family income.
    Granted By: Neal J. Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: The waiver granted will allow participating 
jurisdictions to expedite recovery efforts for low and moderate 
income residents affected by the flooding and severe wind damage 
from these events by waiving the requirements that participating 
jurisdictions examine the most two recent months of source documents 
when performing initial income determinations for families that are 
displaced by the disaster (as documented by FEMA registration) whose 
income documentation was destroyed or made inaccessible by the 
hurricanes. Displaced families will have the ability to self-certify 
that they meet the income eligibility requirements for HOME 
assistance in lieu of source documentation. The waiver is in effect 
for the six months following October 13, 2017. Participating 
jurisdictions in these Presidentially-declared disaster areas that 
wish to exercise the flexibility provided by these waivers must 
notify the CPD Director in the local HUD Field Office in writing of 
their intention to do so.
    Contact: Virginia Sardone, Director, Office of Affordable 
Housing Programs, Office of Community Planning and Development, 
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, 
Room 10170, Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708-2684.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 92.222(b).
    Project/Activity: Several HOME participating jurisdictions were 
affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria that caused severe 
flooding and wind damage resulting in substantial property loss and 
destruction. Presidentially-declared disaster declarations were 
issued on August 25, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4332); September 10, 2017, 
(FEMA-DR-4336 and FEMA-DR-4337) and September 15, 2017, (FEMA-DR-
4338); and September 20, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4339) for Hurricanes Harvey, 
Irma, and Maria, respectively. This waiver will allow participating 
jurisdictions to focus their recovery efforts for low and moderate 
income residents affected by the flooding and severe wind damage by 
reducing their match requirement by 100% for FY 2017 and FY 2018.
    Nature of Requirements: 24 CFR 92.222(b) requires that each 
fiscal year all HOME participating jurisdictions make contributions 
totaling a minimum of 25% of the HOME funds drawn from their HOME 
Investment Trust Fund Treasury account to housing that qualifies as 
affordable housing under the HOME program.
    Granted By: Neal J. Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: HUD recognizes the urgent housing needs created 
by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria, and the substantial financial 
impact faced by participating jurisdictions focused on recovery 
efforts. By reducing the match requirement by 100% during FY 2017 
and FY 2018, HUD relieves the participating jurisdictions in the 
declared disaster areas from the need to identify and provide 
matching contributions to HOME projects. For State participating 
jurisdictions, this match reduction applies to HOME funds expended 
in the declared disaster area. Participating jurisdictions in these 
Presidentially-declared disaster areas that wish to exercise the 
flexibility provided by this waiver must notify the CPD Director in 
the local HUD Field Office in writing of their intention to do so.
    Contact: Virginia Sardone, Director, Office of Affordable 
Housing Programs, Office of Community Planning and Development, 
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, 
Room 10170, Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708-2684.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 92.251 and 24 CFR 92.64(a) (Virgin 
Islands) Property Standards for HOME-assisted units.
    Project/Activity: Several HOME participating jurisdictions were 
affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria that caused severe 
flooding and wind damage resulting in substantial property loss and 
destruction. Presidentially-declared disaster declarations were 
issued on August 25, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4332); September 10, 2017, 
(FEMA-DR-4336 and FEMA-DR-4337) and September 15, 2017, (FEMA-DR-
4338); and September 20, 2017, (FEMA-DR-4339) for Hurricanes Harvey, 
Irma, and Maria, respectively. This waiver will allow participating 
jurisdictions to meet critical housing needs of families whose 
housing was damaged and families who were displaced by the 
hurricanes by waiving applicable HUD property standard requirements 
for repair of properties damaged by the hurricanes.
    Nature of Requirements: 24 CFR 92.251 and 24 CFR 92.64(a) 
require that housing assisted with HOME funds must meet property 
standards applicable to the type of activity undertaken, i.e., for 
homebuyer assistance, and state and local standards and codes or 
model codes for rehabilitation and new construction.
    Granted By: Neal J. Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: HUD recognizes the urgent housing needs created 
by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. Waiving these provisions for 
housing units located in the declared disaster areas that were 
damaged by the hurricanes will allow participating jurisdictions to 
meet the critical housing needs of families affected by the storms. 
This waiver only applies to housing units located in the declared 
disaster area which were damaged by the disaster and to which HOME 
funds are committed within two years of October 13, 2017. Units will 
still be required to meet State and local health and safety codes, 
as well as lead housing safety regulations established in 24 CFR 
part 35. Participating jurisdictions in these Presidentially-
declared disaster areas that wish to exercise the flexibility 
provided by this waiver must notify the CPD Director in the local 
HUD Field Office in writing of their intention to do so.
    Contact: Virginia Sardone, Director, Office of Affordable 
Housing Programs, Office of Community Planning and Development, 
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, 
Room 10170, Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708-2684.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 92.500(d)(2)(i)(C).
    Project/Activity: HOME Program Expenditure Requirement.
    The city of Pasadena, California, requested a waiver of 24 CFR 
92.500(d)(2)(i)(C) for its Fiscal Year 2012 HOME expenditure 
deadline to provide additional time to expend HOME funds it recently 
repaid to its HOME account and unexpected funds it received as 
program income.
    Nature of Requirement: The regulation at 24 CFR 
92.500(d)(2)(i)(C) requires a participating jurisdiction to expend 
its annual allocation of HOME funds within five years after HUD 
notifies the participating jurisdiction that HUD has executed the 
jurisdiction's HOME Investment Partnership Agreement.
    Granted By: Neal J. Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 2, 2017.
    Reason Waived: The city repaid $447,889 to its HOME account in 
November 2016 for ineligible expenditures and received $926,707 of 
unanticipated program income during its 2015 and 2016 HOME program 
years due to borrower refinancing and repayment of loans prior to 
maturity. A total of $1,374,596 was deposited in the city's HOME 
account, which is equivalent to almost three times the city's most 
recent HOME grant amount. The city had inadequate time to expend all 
the additional funds by its August 31, 2017, deadline, resulting in 
$626,541.82 being unexpended at the deadline. The waiver was granted 
to provide the city additional time to commit and expend these 
unanticipated funds.
    Contact: Virginia Sardone, Director, Office of Affordable 
Housing Programs, Office of Community Planning and Development, 
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, 
Room 10170, Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708-2684.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 570.207(b)(4) (Entitlements) and 24 
CFR 570.420(b)(3) (U.S. Virgin Islands).
    Project/Activity: All Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 
grantees located within and outside declared disaster areas 
assisting persons and families who have registered with FEMA in 
connection with Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria.
    Nature of Requirement: The CDBG regulations at 24 CFR 
570.420(b)(3) (U.S. Virgin Islands) make applicable 24 CFR 
570.207(b)(4) (Entitlements), which prohibit income payments, but 
permit emergency grant payments for three months. ``Income 
payments'' means a series of subsistence-type grant payments made to 
an individual or

[[Page 15709]]

family for items such as food, clothing, housing (rent or mortgage), 
or utilities. Emergency grant payments made over a period of up to 
three consecutive months to the providers of such items and services 
on behalf of an individual or family are eligible public services.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: HUD waives the provisions of 24 CFR 570.207(b)(4) 
and 24 CFR 570.420(b)(3) to permit emergency grant payments for 
items such as food, clothing, housing (rent or mortgage), or 
utilities for up to six consecutive months. While this waiver allows 
emergency grant payments to be made for up to six consecutive 
months, the payments must still be made to service providers as 
opposed to the affected individuals or families. Many individuals 
and families have been forced to abandon their homes due to the 
severe flooding, storm surge, damaging winds and rain associated 
with Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. The waiver will allow CDBG 
grantees, including grantees providing assistance to evacuees 
outside the declared-disaster areas, to pay for the basic daily 
needs of individuals and families affected by the hurricane on an 
interim basis. This authority is in effect through the end of the 
grantee's 2018 program year.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 574.310(b).
    Project/Activity: All Housing Opportunities for Persons with 
AIDS (HOPWA) grantees located in declared-disaster areas (FEMA-DR-
4322, FEMA-DR-4335, FEMA-DR-4336, FEMA-DR-4337, FEMA-DR-4338, FEMA-
DR-4339, and FEMA-DR-4340) stemming from Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, 
and Maria upon notification by the grantee to the Community Planning 
and Development Director in its respective HUD Field Office.
    Nature of Requirement: HUD's regulation at 24 CFR 574.310(b) 
provides that units occupied by recipients of HOPWA Tenant-Based 
Rental Assistance (TBRA) meet the Housing Quality Standards (HQS) 
established in that section.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary, Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: Rental units in the declared-disaster areas 
experienced property damage from the severe flooding and devastating 
winds associated with Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. The 
granted waiver allows HOPWA grantees and project sponsors to 
expeditiously meet the critical housing needs of the many eligible 
families affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria in the 
declared disaster areas. The waiver only applies to units in the 
declared-disaster areas occupied by HOPWA beneficiaries and HOPWA-
eligible families. Units must meet HOPWA HQS within 60 days.
    Contact: Rita Flegel, Director, Office of HIV/AIDS Housing, 
Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing 
and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 7248, Washington, 
DC 20410, telephone (202) 402-5374.
     Regulation: 24 CFR 574.320(a)(2).
    Project/Activity: All HOPWA grantees located in declared-
disaster areas (FEMA-DR-4322, FEMA-DR-4335, FEMA-DR-4336, FEMA-DR-
4337, FEMA-DR-4338, FEMA-DR-4339, and FEMA-DR-4340) stemming from 
Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria upon notification by the grantee 
to the Community Planning and Development Director in its respective 
HUD Field Office.
    Nature of Requirement: HUD's regulation at 24 CFR 574.320(a)(2) 
provides that HOPWA grantees must establish rent standards for their 
TBRA programs based on Fair Market Rent. Generally, the TBRA payment 
may not exceed the difference between the rent standard and 30 
percent of the family's adjusted income.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary, Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: Several HOPWA grantees and project sponsors were 
impacted by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. The waiver granted 
allows for expedited efforts to identify suitable housing units in 
the declared-disaster areas for rent to HOPWA beneficiaries and 
HOPWA-eligible families that have been affected by the hurricanes, 
and to provide assistance to families in the declared-disaster areas 
that must rent units at rates that exceed the HOPWA grantee's normal 
rent standard as calculated in accordance with 24 CFR 574.320(a)(2). 
Such rent standards are to be used only within the disaster-declared 
area in calculating the TBRA subsidy for families affected by 
Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria.
    Contact: Rita Flegel, Director, Office of HIV/AIDS Housing, 
Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing 
and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 7248, Washington, 
DC 20410, telephone (202) 402-5374.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 574.530.
    Project/Activity: All HOPWA grantees assisting families 
displaced by the disasters (FEMA-DR-4322, FEMA-DR-4335, FEMA-DR-
4336, FEMA-DR-4337, FEMA-DR-4338, FEMA-DR-4339, and FEMA-DR-4340) 
stemming from Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria upon notification 
by the grantee to the Community Planning and Development Director in 
its respective HUD Field Office.
    Nature of Requirement: HUD's regulation at 24 CFR 574.530 
provides that each HOPWA grantee must maintain records to document 
compliance with HOPWA requirements, which includes determining the 
eligibility of a family to receive HOPWA assistance.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff Assistant Secretary, Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: Many families whose homes have been destroyed or 
damaged by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, or Maria will not have immediate 
access to documentation of income or medical records and, 
consequently, will not be able to document their eligibility for 
HOPWA assistance if the requirement remains effective. The waiver 
granted allows HOPWA grantees and project sponsors to rely upon a 
family member's self-certification of income and credible 
information on their HIV status (such as knowledge of their HIV-
related medical care) in lieu of source documentation to determine 
eligibility for HOPWA assistance of families affected by the 
hurricanes. This waiver only applies to families displaced by the 
disasters that have registered with the Federal Emergency Management 
Agency (FEMA).

Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing 
and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 7248, Washington, 
DC 20410, telephone (202) 402-5374.
     Regulation: 24 CFR 576.105(a)(5), 576.105(b)(2), 
576.106(a).
    Project/Activity: HUD granted a waiver of 24 CFR 576.105(a)(5), 
576.105(b)(2), 576.106(a) to States, the Commonwealth of Puerto 
Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other Emergency Solutions Grants 
(ESG) recipients located in the counties and county equivalents 
(islands of the U.S. Virgin Islands and municipalities of Puerto 
Rico) designated in the following major disaster declarations: FEMA-
DR-4322, FEMA-DR-4335, FEMA-DR-4336, FEMA-DR-4337, FEMA-DR-4338, 
FEMA-DR-4339, FEMA-DR-4340. The waiver allows recipients and their 
subrecipients to exceed the required term limits on rental 
assistance and housing relocation and stabilization services to 
provide up to three consecutive years of rental assistance, utility 
payments, and housing stability case management, in addition to the 
30 days of housing stability case management that may be provided 
before the move into permanent housing under 24 CFR 576.105(b)(2) 
for eligible individuals and families that: 1) live in a declared-
disaster area or were displaced from a declared-disaster area as a 
result of the hurricanes and flooding; 2) have registered with FEMA; 
and 3) are currently receiving rental assistance or housing 
relocation or stabilization services or begin receiving rental 
assistance or housing relocation stabilization services within two 
years after the date of the waiver.
    Nature of Requirement: The ESG regulation at 576.105(a)(5) 
prohibits a program participant from receiving more than 24 months 
of utility payments under ESG during any three-year period. Section 
576.105(b)(2) limits the provision of housing stability case 
management to 30 days while the program participant is seeking 
permanent housing and 24 months while the program participant is 
living in permanent housing. Section 576.106(a) prohibits a program 
participant from receiving more than 24 months of ESG rental 
assistance during any three-year period.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.

[[Page 15710]]

    Reason Waived: HUD granted the waiver to facilitate assistance 
to individuals and families affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and 
Maria. Specifically, waiving the 24-month limits on rental 
assistance, utility payments, and housing stability case management 
assistance will assist individuals and families, both those already 
receiving assistance and those who will receive assistance 
subsequent to the date of the waiver memorandum (October 13, 2017), 
to maintain stable permanent housing in place or in another area and 
help them return to their hometowns, as desired, when additional 
permanent housing is available. The waiver was conditioned on each 
ESG recipient providing HUD advance written notice of the declared 
disaster areas in which the recipient would use the waiver and the 
date on which the recipient planned to begin using the waiver.
    Contact: Norm Suchar, Director, Office of Special Needs 
Assistance Programs, Office of Community Planning and Development, 
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, 
SW., Room 7262, Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708-4300.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 576.106(d)(1).
    Project/Activity: HUD granted a waiver of 24 CFR 576.106(d)(1) 
to States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, 
and other ESG recipients located in the counties and county 
equivalents (islands of the U.S. Virgin Islands and municipalities 
of Puerto Rico) designated in the following major disaster 
declarations: FEMA-DR-4322, FEMA-DR-4335, FEMA-DR-4336, FEMA-DR-
4337, FEMA-DR-4338, FEMA-DR-4339, FEMA-DR-4340. The waiver allows 
grantees and their subrecipients to provide rental assistance for 
units for which the total rent exceeds the Fair Market Rent (FMR) 
established by HUD, as provided under 24 CFR part 888. The FMR 
restriction is waived for any rent amount that takes effect during 
the two-year period beginning on the date of the waiver memorandum 
(October 13, 2017) for any individual or family who is renting or 
executes a lease for a unit in a declared-disaster area and has 
registered with FEMA. However, the affected recipients and their 
subrecipients must still ensure that the units in which ESG 
assistance is provided to these individuals and families meet the 
rent reasonableness standard.
    Nature of Requirement: Under 24 CFR 576.106(d)(1), rental 
assistance cannot be provided unless the total rent is equal to or 
less than the FMR established by HUD, as provided under 24 CFR part 
888, and complies with HUD's standard of rent reasonableness, as 
established under 24 CFR 982.507.
    Granted By: Neal Rackleff, Assistant Secretary for Community 
Planning and Development.
    Date Granted: October 13, 2017.
    Reason Waived: HUD granted the waiver to facilitate assistance 
to individuals and families affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and 
Maria. Specifically, HUD determined that the rental vacancy rate in 
affected areas after the floods is extraordinarily low, and waiving 
the FMR restriction would make more units available to individuals 
and families in need of permanent housing. The waiver was 
conditioned on each ESG recipient providing HUD advance written 
notice of the declared disaster areas in which the recipient would 
use the waiver and the date on which the recipient planned to begin 
using the waiver.

IV. Regulatory Waivers Granted by the Office of Public and Indian 
Housing

    For further information about the following regulatory waivers, 
please see the name of the contact person that immediately follows 
the description of the waiver granted.

     Regulation: 2 CFR 200.311(c)(1).
    Project/Activity: The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) 
requested that HUD grant it an exception from the requirement at 2 
CFR 200.311(c)(1) to compensate HUD for HUD's percentage of 
participation in the costs of the Baychester and Murphy public 
housing properties. This request was made pursuant to a request by 
NYCHA to retain these properties (outside of public housing 
requirements) under 2 CFR 200.311. NYCHA (and these properties) are 
located in New York, NY.
    Nature of Requirement: 2 CFR 200.311(c)(1) states that ``[w]hen 
real property is no longer needed for the originally authorized 
purpose,'' HUD must provide disposition instructions whereby a non-
Federal entity (in this case, a Public Housing Agency (PHA)) can 
retain title after compensating HUD. ``The amount paid to [HUD] will 
be computed by applying [HUD's] percentage of participating in the 
cost of the original purchase (and costs of any improvements) to the 
fair market value of the property.''
    Granted By: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant Secretary, 
Public and Indian Housing, granted this exception pursuant to 2 CFR 
200.102(b). Under this authority, HUD has the authority to grant 
requests to the compensation requirement of 2 CFR 200.311(c)(1) on a 
case-by-case basis.
    Date Granted: December 1, 2017.
    Reason Waived: NYCHA did not use public housing funds to acquire 
the Baychester and Murphy properties. HUD's percentage of 
participation in the cost of the Baychester and Murphy properties 
was 11.1% and 7.7%. NYCHA justified its request for the exception to 
compensate HUD on its intent to operate the properties as affordable 
housing outside of the public housing program. Specifically, NYCHA 
indicated it would add all units at these properties to a Section 8 
project-based voucher (PBV) HAP that was executed on March 16, 2010 
that was already in effect for others unit at the properties. HUD 
granted this request based on the continued future use of the 
properties as housing for low-income families through the PBV 
program and the relatively low percentage of HUD funds in these 
properties. HUD's approval required NYCHA to record a 40-year use 
restriction against the properties that required the properties to 
be operated as Section 8 PBV housing for low-income families.
    Contact: Susan A. Wilson, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary, 
Office of Public Housing Investments, Department of Housing and 
Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 4130, Washington, DC

    Granted By: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Public and Indian Housing.
    Date Granted: December 5, 2017.
    Reason Waived: The LHA demonstrated that the utility allowance 
provided under the HCV program would discourage energy conservation 
and ultimately lead to inefficient use of HAP funds for RAD 
projects.

    Project/Activity: Housing Authority of Jackson County (HAJC) in 
Medford, Oregon, requested a waiver of these regulations so that the 
conjoining property owner may begin pre-construction activities that 
affect and benefit the future of the HAJC.
    Nature of Requirement: The regulation, 983.55(b), states the PHA 
may not enter into an Agreement of Housing Assistance Payments (HAP) 
contract until HUD or a Housing credit agency approved by HUD has 
conducted any required Subsidy Layering review (SLR) and determined 
that the PBV assistance is in accordance with HUD's SLR requirements
    Granted By: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Public and Indian Housing.
    Date Granted: December 5, 2017.
    Reason Waived: The regulation was waived to permit the HAJC to 
execute an AHAP for the subject project prior to the completion of 
the Subsidy Layering Review so pre-construction activities could 
ensue.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 983.301(f)(2)(ii) and 24 CFR 982.17.
    Project/Activity: Eloy Housing Authority (EHA) in Eloy, Arizona, 
requested a waiver to establish a site-specific utility allowance 
within a RAD conversion site.
    Nature of Requirement: The regulation, 24 CFR 982.517, states 
that the PHA must maintain a utility allowance schedule for all 
tenant-paid utilities (except telephone) for cost of tenant-supplied 
refrigerators and ranges, and for other tenant-paid housing 
services. The regulation at 24 CFR 983.301(f(2)(ii) states that the 
PHA may not establish or apply a different utility allowance amount 
for the project-based voucher (PBV) program. The same PHA utility 
allowance schedule applies to both the tenant-based and PBV 
programs.
    Granted By: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Public and Indian Housing.
    Date Granted: November 2, 2017.
    Reason Waived: The EHA demonstrated that the utility allowance 
provided under the HCV program would discourage energy conservation 
and efficient use of HAP funds for the RAD project.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 983.305(c)(4).
    Project/Activity: Northwest Oregon Housing Authority (NOHA) in 
Warrenton, Oregon, requested a waiver so it may pay a landlord who 
failed to execute two housing assistance payments (HAP) contracts 
within the required 60-day time period.
    Nature of Requirement: 24 CFR Sec.  983.305(c)(4) states that 
any HAP contract executed after 60 days from the beginning of the 
lease term is void, and the PHA may not pay any HAP to the owner.
    Granted By: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Public and Indian Housing.
    Date Granted: October 3, 2017.
    Reason Waived: The PHA demonstrated good cause to waive this 
regulation and approval of this request prevented significant 
financial and physical hardship to the families under lease, HUD.

     Regulation: 24 CFR Sec.  985.101(a).
    Project/Activity: Housing Authority of Bexar County (HABC) in 
San Antonio, Texas, requested a waiver for HUD to approve their 
SEMAP certification submission after the end of the fiscal year.
    Nature of Requirement: The regulation at 24 CFR Sec.  
985.101(a), states that PHA must submit the HUD-required SEMAP 
certification form within 60 calendar days after the end of the 
fiscal year.
    Granted By: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Public and Indian Housing.
    Date Granted: November 29, 2017.
    Reason Waived: Due to Hurricane Harvey the HABC reprioritized 
their efforts to pre- and post-disaster activities.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 985.101(a).
    Project/Activity: Boley Center Housing Agency (BCHA) in Saint 
Petersburg, Florida, requested a waiver for HUD to approve their 
SEMAP certification submission after the end of the fiscal year.
    Nature of Requirement: The regulation, 24 CFR Sec.  985.101(a), 
states that PHA must submit the HUD-required SEMAP certification 
form within 60 calendar days after the end of the fiscal year.
    Granted By: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Public and Indian Housing.
    Date Granted: November 29, 2017.
    Reason Waived: Du5678e to unexpected staffing issues as well as 
system related issues, BCHA was not able to submit their SEMAP 
before the deadline. Approval of this waiver prevents the waste of 
staff resources and funding needed to complete corrective actions 
plans and conduct site visits at an agency that does not have 
compliance related issues.
