Adapted Housing (SAH) projects involving construction as authorized 
under Title 38, U.S.C., section 2101 (a), section 2101 (b), and the

section 2102A. This form is also completed by builders who propose to

Code and residential building codes adopted by local building 
authorities, and are in substantial conformity with VA Minimum Property 
requirements.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a
