A. 24 CFR 902.60(d) (Management 

Operations and Resident Service and 

Satisfaction Information) 

HUD plans to revise the Public 

Housing Assessment System (PHAS) 

along the lines of an asset management 

model, which will result in different 

scoring and tracking mechanisms than 

HUD currently utilizes. While the PHAS 

is mostly rooted in statute (section 6(j) 

of the Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 

1437d(j)), there is no statutory 

requirement that PHAs submit to annual 

evaluations. Hence, for PHAs that 

request and show good cause, HUD will 

waive the requirement to submit a 

management operations certification, 

and will also waive the resident 

satisfaction survey, for a PHA’s final 

year prior to required conversion to 

project-based budgeting and accounting 

(i.e., PHAs with fiscal years ending June 

30, 2007, September 30, 2007, December 

31, 2007, and March 31, 2008). HUD 

will not waive the independent physical 

inspection (conducted on all PHAs that 

score less than 80 on the previous year’s 

inspection) or the requirement to submit 

a Financial Data Schedule (FDS). For 

purposes of scoring, HUD may, on a 

case-by-case basis, consider several 

alternatives that provide a PHAS score 

based on all four indicators, including: 

(1) Carrying over the PHA’s entire PHAS 

score from the previous year, or (2) 

carrying over only the management 

assessment and resident satisfaction 

scores and tabulating new physical 

condition and financial condition 

scores. 

B. 24 CFR 902.43 (a)(4) (Annual 

Inspections) 

Section 6(f) of the United States 

Housing Act of 1937 requires PHA 

annual inspections. Waivers will be 

considered relating to the conduct of 

PHA annual inspections in accordance 

with Uniform Physical Condition 

Standards (UPCS). A PHA would still be 

required to conduct annual inspections; 

however, in accordance with section 

6(f), it could perform those inspections 

in accordance with laws, standards, or 

state or local codes that the Secretary, 

upon granting the waiver, determines 

meet or exceed the UPCS. In requesting 

a waiver of the UPCS inspection 

requirement, the PHA must indicate the 

alternative inspection standards it 

intends to use and why such alternative 

standards meet or exceed the UPCS. 

PHAs are still subject to Real Estate 

Assessment Center physical inspections 

using UPCS at the frequency contained 

in 24 CFR part 902. 

C. 24 CFR Part 964 (Tenant 

Participation) 

Part 964 establishes various 

requirements for PHAs pertaining to 

tenant (resident) participation. HUD 

will consider requests for waivers 

relating to such issues as: the role of 

jurisdiction-wide resident councils (as 

these are not mandated by law), PHA 

roles in resident participation activities, 

requirements concerning resident 

council membership, election 

procedures, and uniform bylaws.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

Fish and Wildlife Service 

Receipt of an Application for an 

Incidental Take Permit for 

Construction of a Single-Family 

Residence in Sarasota County, FL 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: We, the Fish and Wildlife 

Service (Service), announce the 

availability of an incidental take permit 

(ITP) and Habitat Conservation Plan 

(HCP). Joseph Pansulla (Applicant) 

requests an incidental take permit (ITP) 

pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(B) of the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973 (U.S.C. 

1531 et seq.), as amended (Act). The 

Applicant anticipates taking about 0.79 

acre of Florida scrub-jay (Aphelocoma 

coerulescens)(scrub-jay) foraging, 

sheltering, and possibly nesting habitat, 

incidental to lot preparation for the 

construction of a single-family residence 

and supporting infrastructure in 

Sarasota County, Florida (Project). The 

destruction of 0.79 acre of foraging and 

sheltering habitat is expected to result 

in the take of one family of scrub-jays. 

The Applicant’s Habitat Conservation 

Plan (HCP) describes the mitigation and 

minimization measures proposed to 

address the effects of the Projects to the 

Florida scrub-jay. 

DATES: Written comments on the ITP 

application and HCP should be sent to 

the South Florida Ecological Services 

Office (see ADDRESSES) and should be 

received on or before April 2, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Persons wishing to review 

the application and HCP may obtain a 

copy by writing the Service’s South 

Florida Ecological Services Office. 

Please reference permit number 

TE143178–0 in such requests. 

Documents will also be available for 

public inspection by appointment 

during normal business hours at the 

South Florida Ecological Services 

Office, 1339 20th Street, Vero Beach, 

Florida 32960.

Trish Adams, Fish and Wildlife 

Biologist, South Florida Ecological 

Services Office, Vero Beach, Florida (see

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: If you 

wish to comment, you may submit 

comments by any one of several 

methods. Please reference Pansulla SFL 

HCP in such requests. You may mail 

comments to the Service’s South Florida 

Ecological Services Office (see 

ADDRESSES). You may also comment via 

the Internet to trish_adams@fws.gov. 

Please also include your name and 

return address in your internet message. 

If you do not receive a confirmation 

from us that we have received your 

internet message, contact us directly at 

the telephone number listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Finally, 

you may hand deliver comments to the 

Service office listed under ADDRESSES. 

Our practice is to make comments, 

including names and home addresses of 

respondents, available for public review 

during regular business hours. 

Individual respondents may request that 

we withhold their home address from 

the administrative record. We will 

honor such requests to the extent 

allowable by law. There may also be 

other circumstances in which we would 

withhold from the administrative record 

a respondent’s identity, as allowable by 

law. If you wish us to withhold your 

name and address, you must state this 

prominently at the beginning of your 

comments. We will not, however, 

consider anonymous comments. We 

will make all submissions from 

organizations or businesses, and from 

individuals identifying themselves as 

representatives or officials of 

organizations or businesses, available 

for public inspection in their entirety. 

Residential construction for the 

Pansulla SFL HCP will take place 

within Section 15, Township 40, Range 

19, Englewood, Sarasota County, 

Florida, on 1 lot. This lot is within 

scrub-jay occupied habitat. 

The lot encompasses about 1.22 acres, 

and the footprint of the homes, 

infrastructure, and landscaping 

preclude retention on 0.79 acre of scrubjay habitat on this lot. In order to 

minimize take on site the Applicant 

proposes to mitigate for the loss of 0.79

acre of scrub-jay habitat by contributing 

a total of $40,000.00 to the Florida 

Scrub-jay Conservation Fund 

administered by The Nature 

Conservancy. The Florida Scrub-jay 

Conservation Fund is earmarked for use 

in the conservation and recovery of 

scrub-jays and may include habitat 

acquisition, restoration, and/or 

management. 

The Service has determined that the 

Applicant’s proposal, including the 

proposed mitigation and minimization 

measures, will individually and 

cumulatively have a minor or negligible 

effect on the species covered in the 

HCP. Therefore, the ITP is a ‘‘loweffect’’ project and qualifies as a 

categorical exclusion under the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), as 

provided by the Department of the 

Interior Manual (516 DM 2, Appendix 1 

and 516 DM 6, Appendix 1). This 

preliminary information may be revised 

based on our review of public comments 

that we receive in response to this 

notice. Low-effect HCPs are those 

involving (1) minor or negligible effects 

on federally listed or candidate species 

and their habitats, and (2) minor or 

negligible effects on other 

environmental values or resources. 

The Service will evaluate the HCP 

and comments submitted thereon to 

determine whether the application 

meets the requirements of section 10(a) 

of the Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). If it 

is determined that those requirements 

are met, the ITP will be issued for the 

incidental take of the Florida scrub-jay. 

The Service will also evaluate whether 

issuance of the section 10(a)(1)(B) ITP 

complies with section 7 of the Act by 

conducting an intra-Service section 7 

consultation. The results of this 

consultation, in combination with the 

above findings, will be used in the final 

analysis to determine whether or not to 

issue the ITP.

pursuant to Section 10 of the Endangered 

Species Act and NEPA regulations (40 CFR 

1506.6).
