[Docket No. FR–4893–N–01] 

List of Federally Assisted Programs

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant 

Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal 

Opportunity, HUD.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: This notice announces a list 

of HUD programs that are subject to the 

nondiscrimination provisions in Title VI 

of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Pamela Walsh, Director, Program 

Standards Division, Office of Fair 

Housing and Equal Opportunity, 

Department of Housing and Urban 

Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., 

Washington, DC 20410–2000, telephone 

(202) 708–2288, extension 7017 (this is 

not a toll-free number). Hearing- and 

speech-impaired individuals may access 

this telephone number via TTY by 

calling the toll-free Federal Information 

Relay Service at (800) 877–8339.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

September 11, 1995, HUD published a 

final rule (60 FR 47260) that removed 

from Title 24 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations any regulation determined 

unnecessary or obsolete. Among the 

numerous changes, HUD removed 

Appendix A from 24 CFR part 1. The 

regulations in 24 CFR part 1 effectuate 

the provisions of Title VI of the Civil 

Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000d–

2000d–7), which provides that ‘‘no 

person in the United States shall, on the 

ground of race, color, or national origin, 

be excluded from participation in, be 

denied the benefits of, or be subjected 

to discrimination under any program or 

activity receiving Federal financial 

assistance.’’ Appendix A was a list of 

HUD’s programs that provide Federal 

financial assistance and, therefore, are 

subject to the nondiscrimination 

provisions of Title VI and 24 CFR part 

1. 

In the September 11, 1995, final rule, 

HUD determined that Appendix A was 

unnecessary because no regulatory 

requirement is included and the 

information can be provided through 

other non-rulemaking means. To that 

end, HUD is publishing, and will 

publish periodically, a list of HUD 

programs that are subject to the 

provisions of Title VI. This notice is 

provided for information and reference; 

therefore applicability of Title VI and 

Title VI regulations is not affected by 

inclusion on or omission from this list.
