Expansion for which the PHA was 

selected and shall comply with all 

aspects of its Cohort Study as outlined 

in the Selection Notice (PIH Notice l– 

l), under which the Authority was 

designated. 

(C) The Authority may be exempted 

from certain provisions of the Housing 

Act of 1937 and its implementing 

regulations in accordance with the 

requirements and procedures set forth 

in the Operations Notice. However, the 

Authority remains subject to all other 

federal laws and HUD requirements, as 

they be amended from time to time even 

in the event of a conflict between such 

a requirement and a waiver or activity 

authorized by the Operations Notice. 

(D) HUD reserves the right to require the 

Authority to discontinue any activity or 

to revise any activity to comply with the 

Operations Notice and other applicable 

HUD requirements in the event of a 

conflict between an MTW activity and 

such requirements, as determined by 

HUD. 

(E) HUD reserves the right to require the 

Authority to discontinue any activity 

derived from a waiver granted by the 

Operations Notice should it have 

significant negative impacts on families 

or the agency’s operation of its assisted 

housing programs using Section 8 and 9 

funds, as determined by HUD. 

Section 6. Transition 

At least one year prior to expiration of 

this MTW CACC Amendment, the 

Authority shall submit a transition plan 

to HUD. It is the Authority’s 

responsibility to be able to end all MTW 

activities that it has implemented 

through its MTW Supplement to the 

PHA Plan upon expiration of this MTW 

CACC Amendment. The transition plan 

shall describe plans for phasing out 

such activities. 

Section 7. Termination and Default 

(A) If the Authority violates or fails to 

comply with any requirement or 

provision of the CACC, including this 

amendment, HUD is authorized to take 

any corrective or remedial action 

described in this Section 7 for Authority 

default or any other right or remedy 

existing under applicable law, or 

available at equity. HUD will give the 

Authority written notice of any default, 

which shall identify with specificity the 

measures, which the Authority must 

take to cure the default and provide a 

specific time frame for the Authority to 

cure the default, taking into 

consideration the nature of the default. 

The Authority will have the opportunity 

to cure such default within the specified 

period after the date of said notice, or 

to demonstrate within 10 days after the 

date of said notice, by submitting 

substantial evidence satisfactory to 

HUD, that it is not in default. However, 

in cases involving clear and apparent 

fraud, serious criminal behavior, or 

emergency conditions that pose an 

imminent threat to life, health, or safety, 

if HUD, in its sole discretion, 

determines that immediate action is 

necessary it may institute the remedies 

under Section 7(B) of this MTW ACC 

Amendment without giving the 

Authority the opportunity to cure. 

(B) If the Authority is in default and the 

default has not been cured, HUD may, 

undertake any one or all remedies 

available by law, including but not 

limited to the following: 

i. Suspend payment or reimbursement 

for any MTW activities affected; 

ii. Suspend the Authority’s authority to 

make draws or receive or use funds 

for affected activities; 

iii. Require additional reporting by the 

Authority on the deficient areas and 

the steps being taken to address the 

deficiencies; 

iv. Require the Authority to prepare and 

follow a HUD-approved schedule of 

actions and/or a management plan 

for properly completing the 

activities approved under this MTW 

ACC Amendment; 

v. Suspend the MTW waiver 

authorization for the affected 

activities; 

vi. Prohibit payment or reimbursement 

for any MTW activities affected by 

the default; 

vii. Require reimbursement by the 

Authority to HUD for amounts used 

in violation of this MTW ACC 

Amendment; 

viii. Reduce/offset the Authority’s future 

funding; 

ix. Terminate this MTW ACC 

Amendment and require the 

Authority to transition out of MTW; 

x. Take any other corrective or remedial 

action legally available; and/or 

xi. Implement administrative or judicial 

receivership of part, or all, of the 

Authority. 

(C) The Authority may choose to 

terminate this MTW CACC Amendment 

at any time. Upon HUD’s receipt of 

written notification from the Authority 

and a copy of a resolution approving 

termination from its governing board, 

termination will be effective. The 

Authority will then begin to transition 

out of MTW, and will work with HUD 

to establish an orderly phase-out of 

MTW activities, consistent with Section 

6 of this MTW CACC Amendment. 

(D) Nothing contained in this CACC 

amendment shall prohibit or limit HUD 

from the exercise of any other right or 

remedy existing under any ACC, CACC, 

or available under applicable law. 

HUD’s exercise or non-exercise of any 

right or remedy under this amendment 

shall not be construed as a waiver of 

HUD’s right to exercise that or any other 

right or remedy at any time. 

Section 8. Notwithstanding any 

provision set forth in this MTW CACC 

Amendment, any future laws that 

conflict with any provision of this 

CACC Amendment, as determined by 

HUD, HUD’s implementation of any 

future laws that conflict with any 

provision of this MTW CACC 

Amendment, or any HUD determination 

that a future law conflicts with any 

provision of this CACC Amendment, 

shall not be deemed to be a breach of 

this CACC Amendment. HUD’s 

execution of the conflicting law, or the 

execution of a law that HUD deems 

conflicting, shall not serve as any basis 

for a breach of contract claim, or breach 

of contract cause of action, in any court. 

Any future laws affecting the 

Authority’s funding, even if that effect 

is a decrease in funding, and HUD’s 

implementation thereof that affects 

funding shall not be deemed a breach of 

this CACC Amendment and shall not 

serve as any basis for a breach of 

contract claim, or breach of contract 

cause of action, in any court. 

Section 9. This MTW CACC 

Amendment is effective upon the date 

of execution by HUD. 

In consideration of the foregoing 

covenants, the parties do hereby execute 

this MTW CACC Amendment:

Abstract: The Captive Wildlife Safety 

Act (CWSA; Pub. L. 108–191; 16 U.S.C. 

3371 note and 16 U.S.C. 3372 note) 

amends the Lacey Act (16 U.S.C. 3371 

et seq.; 18 U.S.C. 42–43) by making it 

illegal to import, export, buy, sell, 

transport, receive, or acquire, in 

interstate or foreign commerce, live 

lions, tigers, leopards, snow leopards, 

clouded leopards, cheetahs, jaguars, or 

cougars, or any hybrid combination of 

any of these species, unless certain 

exceptions are met. There are several 

exemptions to the prohibitions of the 

CWSA, including accredited wildlife 

sanctuaries. There is no requirement for 

wildlife sanctuaries to submit 

applications to qualify for the accredited 

wildlife sanctuary exemption. Wildlife 

sanctuaries themselves will determine if 

they qualify. To qualify, they must meet 

all of the following criteria: 

• Obtain approval by the United 

States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as 

a corporation that is exempt from 

taxation under section 501(a) of the 

Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Pub. L. 

99–514), which is described in sections 

501(c)(3) and 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) of that 

code. 

• Do not engage in commercial trade 

in the prohibited wildlife species, 

including offspring, parts, and products. 

• Do not propagate the prohibited 

wildlife species. 

• Have no direct contact between the 

public and the prohibited wildlife 

species. 

The basis for this information 

collection is the recordkeeping 

requirement that we place on accredited 

wildlife sanctuaries. We require 

accredited wildlife sanctuaries to 

maintain complete and accurate records 

of any possession, transportation, 

acquisition, disposition, importation, or 

exportation of the prohibited wildlife 

species as defined in the CWSA (see 

title 50 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) at part 14, subpart K). 

Records must be up to date and include: 

(1) Names and addresses of persons to 

or from whom any prohibited wildlife 

species has been acquired, imported, 

exported, purchased, sold, or otherwise 

transferred; and (2) dates of these 

transactions. Accredited wildlife 

sanctuaries must: 

• Maintain these records for 5 years. 

• Make these records accessible to 

Service officials for inspection at 

reasonable hours. 

• Copy these records for Service 

officials, if requested. 

Title of Collection: Captive Wildlife 

Safety Act, 50 CFR 14.250–14.255. 

OMB Control Number: 1018–0129. 

Form Number: None. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Accredited wildlife sanctuaries. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Respondents: 750. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 750. 

Estimated Completion Time per 

Response: 1 hour. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 750. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain a benefit. 

Frequency of Collection: Ongoing. 

Total Estimated Annual Nonhour 

Burden Cost: $300. 

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 authority for this action is the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
