DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND 

URBAN DEVELOPMENT 

[Docket No. FR–5100–C–01] 

Fiscal Year 2007 SuperNOFA for HUD’s 

Discretionary Programs; 

Supplementary Information and 

Technical Corrections 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HUD. 

ACTION: Notice of Supplementary 

Information and Technical Corrections 

to Fiscal Year 2007 SuperNOFA for 

HUD’s Discretionary Programs. 

SUMMARY: On January 18, 2007, HUD 

published its Notice of HUD’s Fiscal 

Year (FY) 2007 Notice of Funding 

Availability (NOFA) Policy 

Requirements and General Section to 

the FY 2007 SuperNOFA for HUD’s 

Discretionary Programs (General 

Section). On March 13, 2007, HUD 

published its FY 2007 SuperNOFA for 

HUD’s Discretionary Programs (FY 2007 

SuperNOFA). In this notice published 

in today’s Federal Register, HUD 

announces that it has posted corrected 

materials to Grants.gov, extends 

deadline dates for submission of 

applications, and clarifies requirements 

for submitting faxed documents. HUD is 

also providing supplemental 

information for and making technical 

corrections to the General Section and 

several individual program NOFAs. 

HUD has found that the Logic Models 

posted to Grants.gov included an error 

in the instructions and programming 

errors that could lead applicants to 

submit deficient or less competitive 

applications. HUD is posting corrected 

Logic Models to Grants.gov. Applicants 

who have signed up for the Grants.gov 

notification services will be 

automatically notified when the 

corrected Logic Models and these 

technical corrections are posted to 

Grants.gov. Applicants that have not 

signed up for the notification services 

should check the Grants.gov Web site 

for the modification to the 

announcement posting following 

publication of this Notice. In order to 

give applicants the opportunity and 

time to submit or resubmit their 

applications with the corrected Logic 

Models, HUD is reopening competition 

for program NOFAs whose deadline 

dates have already passed and 

extending the deadline dates for all 

NOFAs. Applicants that wish to 

resubmit their applications must submit 

an entire, complete application. 

Applicants that submit more than one 

electronic copy of the same application 

must resubmit all faxed documents after 

receipt and validation by Grants.gov of 

each revised application. This will 

ensure that the faxes are associated with 

the revised application. 

Finally, this document provides 

supplementary information for and 

makes corrections to the General 

Section and the individual NOFAs for 

the following programs, which were 

included in the FY 2007 SuperNOFA: 

Community Development Technical 

Assistance Programs (CD–TA), LeadBased Paint Hazard Control Grant 

Program, Lead Hazard Reduction Grant 

Program, Operation Lead Elimination 

Action Program, Technical Studies 

Programs (Lead Technical Studies and 

Healthy Homes Technical Studies), 

Lead Outreach Program, Healthy Homes 

Demonstration Grants Program, Housing 

Choice Voucher (HCV) Family SelfSufficiency (FSS) Program Coordinators, 

Resident Opportunity and SelfSufficiency (ROSS)—Elderly/Persons 

with Disabilities, ROSS—FamilyHomeownership, Self-Help 

Homeownership Opportunity Program, 

Housing Opportunities for Persons with 

AIDS (HOPWA), Section 202 Supportive 

Housing for the Elderly Program, 

Section 811 Supportive Housing for 

Persons with Disabilities Program, Early 

Doctoral Student Research Program, and 

Doctoral Dissertation Research Grant 

Program. Applicants who have 

submitted their applications prior to 

this publication should resubmit a 

complete, updated application that 

reflects any applicable corrections and 

clarifications, along with the corrected 

Logic Model described below in section 

II. The last application received and 

validated by Grants.gov by the deadline 

date will be the application that is 

reviewed, rated, and ranked. 

The supplementary information and 

technical corrections in this notice are 

reflected in the instruction packages but 

do not affect the application packages 

on Grants.gov. 

DATES: The application deadline dates 

for the all program NOFAs are extended 

to the dates provided in Appendix A of 

this notice published in today’s Federal 

Register. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Questions regarding the General Section 

of the SuperNOFA published January 

18, 2007, should be directed to the 

Office of Departmental Grants 

Management and Oversight, Office of 

Administration, Department of Housing 

and Urban Development, 451 Seventh 

Street, SW., Room 3156, Washington, 

DC 20410–5000; telephone number 

(202) 708–0667. Persons with hearing or 

speech impairments may access this 

number via TTY by calling the Federal 

Information Relay Service at (800) 877– 

8339. For the programs listed in this 

notice, please contact the office or

the individual program sections of the 

SuperNOFA, published on March 13, 

2007. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

On January 18, 2007 (72 FR 2396), 

HUD published the General Section in 

advance of the FY 2007 SuperNOFA to 

provide prospective applicants 

additional time to become familiar with 

and address provisions that apply to 

almost every application. On March 13, 

2007 (72 FR 11434), HUD published the 

FY 2007 SuperNOFA, which announced 

the availability of approximately $2 

billion in HUD assistance. In this notice 

published in today’s Federal Register, 

HUD announces that it has posted 

corrected materials to Grants.gov, 

extends deadline dates for submission 

of applications, and clarifies 

requirements for submitting faxed 

documents. HUD is also providing 

supplemental information for and 

making technical corrections to the 

General Section and several individual 

program NOFAs. 

II. Submission or Resubmission of 

Applications With Corrected Logic 

Model 

HUD has found that the Logic Models 

posted to Grants.gov included an error 

in the instructions regarding the 

references to the Standard Form (SF) 

424 Box 8a (Applicant Legal Name) and 

Box 15 (Descriptive Title of Applicant’s 

Project). The Logic Models also had 

some programming errors which caused 

the drop down menus to operate 

improperly. In addition, the Lead 

Outreach Grant Program (LOGP) Logic 

Model was corrected to delete 

references to technical assistance 

activities which are no longer eligible 

activities under the 2007 LOGP NOFA. 

Finally, the Continuum of Care, Housing 

Choice Voucher Family Self Sufficiency, 

and Public Housing Family Self 

Sufficiency Logic Models have been 

updated to include an additional 

management question. HUD is posting 

corrected Logic Models to the 

Grants.gov instructions download for all 

2007 NOFAs. For Continuum of Care 

applicants, the revised Logic Model will 

be posted to HUD’s funding available 

page at http://www.hud.gov/offices/ 

adm/grants/nofa07/grpcoc.cfr. All 

applicants should use the corrected 

version of each program Logic Model. 

For applicants filing electronically, 

when resubmitting your revised 

application, please use the same 

application and facsimile transmittal 


ycherry on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 91 / Friday, May 11, 2007 / Notices 27033 

cover page that you used to submit your 

original application. Continuum of Care 

applicants should resubmit their revised 

application in paper format following 

the NOFA instructions. HUD 

recommends that any applicants that 

already submitted an application 

resubmit a revised application using the 

corrected version of the program Logic 

Model. HUD will rate and rank the latest 

version of each application submitted. 

Applicants who fail to submit a revised 

application and use the incorrect 

version of the Logic Model might 

inadvertently select ineligible or less 

desirable options and be rated less 

favorably as a result. 

III. Reopening of NOFAS and 

Extensions of Deadline Dates 

To provide applicants the opportunity 

and time to submit or resubmit their 

complete applications with the 

corrected Logic Models, HUD is 

reopening competition for program 

NOFAs whose deadline dates have 

passed and extending the deadline dates 

for all other NOFAs. Applicants may 

submit applications for NOFAs to meet 

the new extended deadline dates, 

whether or not they submitted an 

application prior to today’s notice. The 

new deadline dates are provided in 

Appendix A to this notice published in 

today’s Federal Register. The new 

deadline dates are also reflected in the 

technical corrections to individual 

program NOFAs below. In the event of 

a discrepancy between a deadline date 

in Appendix A to this notice and the 

deadline date in the individual program 

NOFAs after the amendments made 

below, the deadline date in Appendix A 

to this notice prevails. 

IV. Faxing Documents to HUD 

Applicants submitting an application 

in response to this notice must follow 

the instructions for submitting faxed 

documents in the General Section. HUD 

will only accept complete applications. 

Subsequent submissions of the same 

application must comply with the 

following, additional instructions. 

Submissions must include all faxes. 

Faxes must be submitted following 

validation of each revised application 

by Grants.gov to ensure faxes are 

matched to the latest application 

submission. 

In addition, HUD is taking the 

opportunity in this technical correction 

to clarify its policy for applicants to 

follow when submitting technical cures 

to an application submission following 

HUD review and request for a technical 

cure to an application submission. For 

electronic application submitters only, 

HUD will be requesting that technical 

cures be submitted using the fax 

transmittal form and faxed to the 

facsimile solution number used when 

submitting faxes with your application 

submission. This policy ensures that a 

complete application, including any 

technical cures requested by HUD staff 

during the review and evaluation 

process, will be available in electronic 

format in HUD’s grants system. 

Beginning in FY 2007 with funding 

announcements, it is HUD’s intent to 

make available the highest rated 

application available for public view on 

HUD’s Freedom of Information Act 

(FOIA) Web site. Therefore, applicants 

submitting technical cures requested by 

HUD staff should submit the material 

using the same form HUD–96011 cover 

sheet used to submit faxes with your 

application submission. The material 

should be sent using the facsimile 

solution fax numbers found in the 

General Section. Prior to placing an 

application on the FOIA Web site, HUD 

will conduct a privacy review and 

redact private information. However, if 

applicants submit applications with 

proprietary information they should 

note the information is proprietary in 

their application submission. 

V. Supplemental Information and 

Technical Corrections 

This notice also provides 

supplemental information and makes 

technical corrections to the General 

Section and to the individual NOFAs for 

the following programs, which were 

included in the FY 2007 SuperNOFA: 

Community Development Technical 

Assistance Programs (CD–TA), LeadBased Paint Hazard Control Grant 

Program, Lead Hazard Reduction Grant 

Program, Operation Lead Elimination 

Action Program, Technical Studies 

Programs (Lead Technical Studies and 

Healthy Homes Technical Studies), 

Lead Outreach Program, Healthy Homes 

Demonstration Grants Program, Housing 

Choice Voucher (HCV) Family SelfSufficiency (FSS) Program Coordinators, 

Resident Opportunity and SelfSufficiency (ROSS)—Elderly/Persons 

with Disabilities, ROSS–FamilyHomeownership, Self-Help 

Homeownership Opportunity Program, 

Housing Opportunities for Persons with 

AIDS (HOPWA), Section 202 Supportive 

Housing for the Elderly Program, 

Section 811 Supportive Housing for 

Persons with Disabilities Program, Early 

Doctoral Student Research Program, and 

Doctoral Dissertation Research Grant 

Program. 

Summaries of the technical 

corrections made by this document are 

provided below. The Federal Register 

page number shown in brackets 

identifies where the individual funding 

availability announcement that is being 

corrected can be found either in the 

January 18, 2007, General Section or the 

March 13, 2007, SuperNOFA. The 

technical corrections described in 

today’s Federal Register are also 

reflected in the updated application 

instructions download for the funding 

opportunity located on Grants.gov. HUD 

recommends that applicants who have 

submitted their applications prior to 

this publication should resubmit an 

entire, complete, revised application 

that reflects any applicable corrections 

and clarifications, along with the 

corrected Logic Model described above 

in section II. The last application 

received and validated by Grants.gov by 

the deadline date will be the application 

that is reviewed, rated, and ranked. For 

Continuum of Care applicants, HUD 

will review the last complete paper 

application received in accordance with 

the Continuum of Care NOFA 

instructions. 

A. General Section [2396] 

On page 2409, section V.A.1.b., first 

column, HUD is adding the instruction 

that when responding to Rating Factor 

1, Capacity, applicants should not 

include social security numbers on any 

resumes submitted to HUD. 

On page 2416, section VIII.F., second 

column, HUD is adding a new section 

VIII.F.3. describing the statutory 

limitation on the use of HUD grant 

funds to support projects that seek to 

use the power of eminent domain. 

Congress made the limitation applicable 

to funds under the FY 2007 SuperNOFA 

after HUD published the General 

Section. Recipients may use HUD funds 

to seek a government’s use of its power 

to take property only if the power is 

employed for public use. Economic 

development that primarily benefits 

private entities is not considered a 

public use. However, transportation and 

utility projects that serve the general 

public, as well as projects that remove 

threats to public health and safety or 

clean up brownfields, are considered 

examples of public use. 

On page 2416, section VIII., third 

column, HUD is adding a new section 

VIII.I., which summarizes guidance 

from the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) that applies to the cost 

sharing and matching requirements in 

the FY 2007 SuperNOFA. This section 

notes the importance of complying with 

applicable OMB circulars, particularly 

with respect to funds used or proposed 

to be used to satisfy cost sharing or 

matching requirements. OMB Circulars 

A–102 (as implemented by 24 CFR part 

85), A–110 (as implemented by 24 CFR 


ycherry on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
27034 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 91 / Friday, May 11, 2007 / Notices 

part 84), A–87, and A–122 set forth 

administrative standards and cost 

principles, including requirements that 

apply to cost sharing and matching, 

organized according to the status of the 

entity receiving a grant or cooperative 

agreement. 

B. Community Development Technical 

Assistance (CD–TA) Program NOFA 

[11449] 

HUD is amending the CD–TA program 

to implement two revisions. The first 

revision will assist applicants to 

distinguish between TA priorities for 

applicants who submit an application 

for a national homeless TA program and 

applicants that submit an application 

for a local (i.e., within the jurisdiction 

of a HUD field office) homeless TA 

program. 

HUD inadvertently omitted from the 

CD–TA NOFA language that referenced 

priorities to be carried out by TA 

providers that work on the local level 

within the jurisdiction of specific HUD 

field offices. Without guidance for 

applicants on the local level, homeless 

TA applicants, regardless of whether 

they apply for national TA or local TA 

in the field offices, would be required to 

submit applications focused on 

Homeless Management Information 

System (HMIS) activities. 

With the revisions presented in this 

notice, applicants must, in response to 

Rating Factors 2 through 5, discuss the 

specific TA activities that will be 

carried out during the term of the grant. 

These activities need to relate to the 

eligible activities listed in Section III.C. 

of the CD–TA program NOFA. Because 

the NOFA, as published on March 13, 

2007, inadvertently requires applicants 

for local TA to relate activities to the 

national HMIS priorities, HUD is 

clarifying the local TA priorities in this 

notice. 

The second revision implemented by 

this notice clarifies the HOME TA funds 

that are available under the CD–TA 

NOFA. In the NOFA, HUD inadvertently 

stated that a single applicant 

organization is limited to 20 percent of 

the $18,000,000 made available for 

HOME and CHDO TA in FY 2007. 

However, by statute, this amount is 

limited to amounts that are appropriated 

and does not include other available 

funds. As a result, HUD is revising the 

CD–TA NOFA to state that a single 

applicant organization is limited to 20 

percent of the $9.9 million appropriated 

in FY 2007. 

This amendment contains information 

that applicants for local homeless TA 

and HOME TA need to complete 

adequately their applications. Those 

applicants who have already submitted 

an application are encouraged to review 

this notice and resubmit a revised 

application. 

These corrections are reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

C. Indian Community Development 

Block Grant Program for Indian Tribes 

and Alaska Native Villages [11449] 

On page 11456, section IV.C.1., first 

column, HUD is deleting a sentence 

describing submission requirements for 

applicants that are granted a waiver of 

electronic submission requirements. 

Any such applicants will receive 

submission requirements once a waiver 

is granted. 

This correction is reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

D. Lead-Based Paint Hazard Control 

Grant Program; Lead Hazard Reduction 

Demonstration Grant Program; and 

Operation Lead Elimination Action 

Program [Page 11539] 

On page 11548, section V.A.1.b.(2), 

third column, HUD is clarifying the 

term ‘‘current or previous grantee’’ by 

adding ‘‘awarded funds in FY 2002 or 

later.’’

On page 11549, section V.A.2., first 

column, first full paragraph, HUD is 

correcting the HUDuser Web site 

address, which may be used to verify 

income data submitted to HUD. 

On page 11552, section V.A.4., second 

column, third full paragraph, first 

sentence, HUD is correcting the 

minimum match requirement for the 

Lead-Based Paint Hazard Control and 

Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration 

programs to be 10 percent. This 

correction makes this statement 

consistent with other statements in the 

NOFA (e.g., page 11540, section I.B.3, 

left column; page 11541, section III.B., 

left column; and page 11543, section 

III.C.3.a., left column). 

On page 11552, section V.A.4., third 

column, HUD is correcting the table 

header to read ‘‘LEAP.’’ This correction 

makes the header of the table at the top 

of the third column consistent with the 

last header of the table in second 

column, which continues in the third 

column. 

On page 11553, section V.B.2.b., 

column 3, HUD is correcting the 

description of the factors for award by 

stating that a minimum of 75 points is 

required for award. This corrects the 

inadvertent omission of the minimum 

rating score for award among eligible 

applicants, which is the same as in the 

FY 2006 combined Lead Hazard Control 

NOFA. 

These corrections are reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

E. Lead Technical Studies NOFA 

(Combined) Grant Program [Page 11556] 

On page 11557, Overview 

Information, section G.2., left column, 

HUD is correcting the amount of 

available funding for the combined 

Technical Studies grant programs from 

$5.6 million to $5.0 million, and the 

Lead Technical Studies grant program 

from $3.6 million to $3.0 million. This 

reflects a more accurate assessment of 

the amount of funds available for the 

Lead Technical Studies grant program. 

On page 11558, section II.A., center 

column, HUD is correcting the amount 

of available funding for the Lead 

Technical Studies grant program from 

$3.6 million to $3.0 million. This 

reflects a more accurate assessment of 

the amount of funds available for this 

grant program. 

On page 11562, section IV.B.1.g.(5)(b), 

right column, HUD is correcting the 

checklist for the budget to include the 

budget narrative, which was 

inadvertently omitted from the 

checklist. This correction makes the 

checklist consistent with the 

requirement on page 11565, section 

V.A.3.c.(5)(b), second column. 

These corrections are reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

F. Lead Outreach Program [Page 11568] 

On page 11568, HUD is correcting the 

title by deleting line 5, ‘‘Technical 

Studies NOFA’’. Mentioning the 

Technical Studies NOFA in the title 

implies that the Lead Outreach NOFA 

and Technical Studies NOFA are 

connected, which is not the case. 

This correction is reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 


ycherry on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 91 / Friday, May 11, 2007 / Notices 27035 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

G. Healthy Homes Demonstration Grant 

Program [Page 11578] 

On page 11578, HUD is correcting the 

header by deleting line 5, ‘‘Technical 

Studies NOFA’’. Mentioning the 

Technical Studies NOFA implies that 

the Healthy Homes Demonstration 

NOFA and Technical Studies NOFA are 

connected, which is not the case. 

On page 11584, section IV.B.7., first 

column, second bullet, second listed 

submission requirement, HUD is 

correcting the checklist’s identification 

of the detailed budget worksheet from 

Form HUD–424-CB, ‘‘Grant Application 

Detailed Budget,’’ to Form HUD–424–

CBW, ‘‘Grant Application Detailed 

Budget Worksheet’’. This correction 

makes the checklist consistent with 

rating factor 3 (page 11588, section 

V.A.2.c.(3), left column), in which the 

applicant is asked to provide the 

worksheet. 

On page 11584, section IV.B.7., first 

column, second bullet, HUD is 

correcting the checklist by adding the 

budget narrative to the list of materials 

required to be submitted in response to 

rating factors. This correction makes the 

checklist consistent with Rating Factor 

3 (page 11588, section V.A.2.c.(3), 

center column), in which the applicant 

is asked to provide the 4-page 

(maximum) budget narrative. 

On page 11588, section V.A.2.c.(3), 

second column, HUD is clarifying the 

requirement for the budget package to 

include a budget narrative, as well as 

the budget itself, for any sub-grantee 

proposed to receive more than 10 

percent of the total federal budget 

request. This will clarify the 

requirement on page 11583, section 

IV.B.6.c., right column, and inform 

applicants that a separate budget 

proposal should be provided for certain 

sub-recipients. 

These corrections are reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

H. Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) 

Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program 

Coordinators [Page 11593] 

On page 11595, section IV.B.1., third 

column, HUD is clarifying applicants’

obligation to submit form HUD–2991, 

Certification of Consistency with the 

Consolidated Plan. Applicants may 

satisfy this requirement by submitting a 

copy of the signed PHA Certification of 

Compliance for their current Annual 

PHA Plan. 

This correction is reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

I. ROSS—Elderly/Persons With 

Disabilities Program [Page 11610] 

On page 11614, section III.C.1., 

second column, HUD is adding 

‘‘program outreach to participants’’ to 

the list of eligible activities. 

On page 11614, section III.C.2.a., third 

column, HUD is removing the 

requirement for match-related letters of 

commitment, memoranda of 

understanding, and tribal resolutions to 

be on letterhead. HUD is also deleting 

the duplicative statement in the same 

sentence that such documents must be 

signed by a person authorized to 

commit the matching resources. The 

signature requirement is set forth in the 

immediately preceding sentence and is 

not affected by this change. The 

requirement that letters of support from 

Resident Associations and PHAs must 

be on letterhead is also unaffected by 

this change. 

On page 11616, section III.C.4.c.(3), 

second column, HUD is deleting the 

repetitive statements that joint 

applications involving nonprofit 

organizations must include evidence of 

resident support for the nonprofit 

organization. The requirement for 

nonprofit non-lead applicants to submit 

letters of support is already stated in 

section III.C.4.c.(1). 

These corrections are reflected in the 

instructions found on Grants.gov. 

Applicants must download the 

instructions to receive all forms and 

instructions related to this NOFA. 

Applicants are encouraged to read the 

instructions on Grants.gov prior to 

submitting their applications. 

J. ROSS Family and Homeownership 

Program [Page 11625] 

On page 11628, section II.A.5., first 

column, HUD is correcting the 

misstatement that the total funding 

amounts described are for ROSS—

Elderly/Persons with Disabilities grants. 

The correction clarifies that the total 

funding amounts are for ROSS—Family 

and Homeownership grants. 

On page 11629, section II.C.1.a., first 

column, first partial paragraph, HUD is 

correcting the reference to HUD’s policy 

priority to provide the complete title of 

the policy priority, which is ‘‘Providing 

Increased Homeownership and Rental 

Opportunities for Low- and ModerateIncome Persons, Persons with 

Disabilities, the Elderly, Minorities, and 

Families with Limited English 

Proficiency.’’

On page 11630, section II.C.b.(10), 

second column, HUD is deleting 

‘‘program outreach’’ from the list of 

administrative costs and adding it to the 

list of eligible activities in section 

II.C.b.(11). 

On page 11630, section III.C.2.a., third 

column, HUD is removing the 

requirement for match-related letters of 

commitment, memoranda of 

understanding, and tribal resolutions to 

be on letterhead. HUD is also deleting 

the duplicative statement in the same 

sentence that such documents must be 

signed by a person authorized to 

commit the matching resources. The 

signature requirement is set forth in the 

immediately preceding sentence and is 

not affected by this change. The 

requirement that letters of support from 

Resident Associations and PHAs must 

be on letterhead is also unaffected by 

this change. 

On page 11632, section III.C.4.c.(3), 

second column, HUD is deleting the 

statement that joint applications 

involving nonprofit organizations must 

include evidence of resident support for 

the nonprofit organization. The 

requirement for nonprofit non-lead 

applicants to submit letters of support is 

already stated in section III.C.4.c.(1). 

On page 11634, section IV.E.3., first 

column, HUD is deleting ‘‘program 

outreach’’ from the list of administrative 

costs. 

On page 11636, section 

V.A.1.c.(1)(a)(i), third column, HUD is

The Revised Continuing 

Appropriations Resolution, 2007 (Pub. 

L. 110–5, approved February 15, 2007) 

was enacted after publication of the 

General Section and made HUD’s FY 

2007 appropriated funds subject to the 

same conditions imposed on its FY 2006 

funds. Section 726 of the 

Transportation, Treasury, Housing and 

Urban Development, the Judiciary, and 

Independent Agencies Appropriations 

Act, 2006 (Pub. L. 109–115, approved 

November 30, 2005) states that no funds 

made available under the Act may be 

used to support any federal, state, or 

local projects that seek to use the power 

of eminent domain, unless eminent 

domain is employed only for a public 

use. This limitation applies to FY 2007 

appropriated funds. 

For purposes of this provision, public 

use shall not be construed to include 

economic development that primarily 

benefits private entities. 

Further, any use of funds for mass 

transit, railroad, airport, seaport or

shall be considered a public use for

On page 2416, section VIII., third 

column, add the following new section 

VIII.I.: 

I. Office of Management and Budget 

Circular Compliance 

On February 15, 2007, President Bush 

signed into law the Revised Continuing 

Appropriations Resolution, 2007 (Pub. 

L. 110–5, approved February 15, 2007) 

(CR), which provided FY 2007 

appropriations for the majority of 

federal departments and agencies. For 

the federal departments and agencies 

funded by this CR, the CR restricts the 

programs and activities of these 

departments and agencies largely to FY 

2006 funding levels. The Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) has 

issued guidance to federal departments 

and agencies regarding administration 

of funds appropriated by the CR. (See 

OMB Memorandum (M–07–10) issued 

February 15, 2007.) 

In this guidance, OMB emphasizes the 

importance of agencies adhering to 

existing statutes, regulations, and 

Administration policy with respect to 

promoting and providing for 

competition in soliciting offers and 

awarding contracts and competitive 

grants. With respect to HUD’s FY 2007 

SuperNOFA, it is important to note that 

the following OMB circulars are 

applicable, and particular note should 

be given to the provisions concerning 

the use of federal funds for matching 

requirements. 

OMB Circular A–102 (Grants and 

Cooperative Agreements with State and 

Local Governments) establishes 

consistency and uniformity among 

federal agencies in the management of 

grants and cooperative agreements with 

state, local, and federally recognized 

Indian tribal governments. The circular 

provides that state and local 

administration of federal funds must 

include fiscal and administrative 

requirements that are sufficiently 

specific to ensure that: Funds are used 

in compliance with all applicable 

federal statutory and regulatory 

provisions, costs are reasonable and 

necessary for operating these programs, 

and funds are not to be used for general 

expenses required to carry out other 

responsibilities of a state or its 

subrecipients. 

OMB Circular A–110 (Uniform 

Administrative Requirements for Grants 

and Agreements with Institutions of 

Higher Education, Hospitals, and Other 

Non-Profit Organizations) sets forth 

standards for obtaining consistency and 

uniformity among federal agencies in 

the administration of grants to and 

agreements with institutions of higher 

education, hospitals, and other nonprofit organizations. This circular 

specifies the conditions for which funds 

may be used for cost sharing or 

matching and provides that federal 

funds shall not be accepted as cost 

sharing or matching except where 

authorized by federal statute to be used 

for cost sharing or matching. 

OMB Circular A–87 (Cost Principles 

for State, Local, and Indian Tribal 

Governments) establishes principles and 

standards for determining costs for 

federal awards carried out through 

grants, cost reimbursement contracts, 

and other agreements with states and 

local governments and federallyrecognized Indian tribal governments 

(governmental units). This circular 

provides that an allowable cost under a 

federal award does not include a cost 

sharing or matching requirement of any 

other federal award in the applicable 

funding period, except as specifically 

provided by federal law or regulation. 

OMB Circular A–122 (Cost Principles 

for Non-Profit Organizations) establishes 

principles for determining costs of 

grants, contracts, and other agreements 

with non-profit organizations. This 

circular provides, similar to OMB 

Circular A–87, that an allowable cost 

under a federal award does not include 

a cost sharing or matching requirement 

of any other federally-financed program 

in the applicable funding period. 

Applicants for funding under HUD’s 

FY 2007 SuperNOFA are reminded of 

the importance of confirming that any 

federal grant funds that they intend to 

use as a matching share are available to 

be used as matching funds under 

applicable statutes and regulations. 

In the Notice of HUD’s FY 2007 

SuperNOFA, beginning at 72 FR 11433, 

in the issue of March 13, 2007, the 

following corrections are made.

the following: 

(2) Additionally, local TA activities 

are focused on these priorities: 

(a) Capacity building for CoCs, 

including facilitating the exchange of 

information that would help CoCs, 

grantees and project sponsors carry out 

the purposes of the McKinney-Vento 

Act homeless assistance programs, and 

assisting in identifying and overcoming 

barriers to the CoC’s success in doing so. 

Deliverables for this technical assistance 

should include agenda(s), meeting 

minutes, written summary report(s) 

including reports on the barriers and 

methods of overcoming them, next steps 

with responsible party(ies) identified, 

and time lines. 

(b) Assisting CoCs, grantees and 

project sponsors to improve access to 

mainstream systems of care for 

homeless persons. Deliverables for this 

technical assistance should include 

agenda(s), meeting minutes, written 

summary report(s), next steps with 

responsible party(ies) identified, and 

time lines. 

(c) Assisting grantees and project 

sponsors with understanding program 

requirements and monitoring standards, 

including sound fiscal and financial 

management practices, assessment of 

sub-recipients and providing TA to help 

CoCs assess grantees, project sponsors 

and individual projects. 

(d) Presenting curriculums, in person 

or via interactive web presentations, 

that were developed for HUD 

Headquarters. 

Materials developed for a single-use 

technical assistance engagement (e.g. 

agenda, CoC strategic planning, etc.) do 

not need HUD Headquarters review. 

However, any materials developed as 

part of a curriculum or developed to 

serve more than one CoC, must receive 

HUD Headquarters review and approval 

before being used.
