Request for Qualifications; Extension of Date for Submission of 
Qualifications

AGENCY: Office of Assistant Secretary for Housing--Federal Housing 
Commissioner, HUD.

ACTION: Notice of request for qualifications; extension of date for 
submission of qualifications.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On July 16, 1997, the Department published a notice seeking 
requests for qualifications (RFQ) under a statutory Demonstration 
Program. The July 16, 1997 RFQ advised that the Department is carrying 
out a statutory Demonstration Program that is intended to test 
approaches that reduce the cost of the ongoing Federal subsidy for FHA-
insured, Section 8-assisted housing, while preserving this critical 
affordable housing resource in good physical and financial condition. 
The July 16, 1997 RFQ is directed to nonprofit organizations that are 
interested in participating in the Designee process under section VII. 
of the Guidelines for the Demonstration Program. The Guidelines for the 
Demonstration Program were published on January 23, 1997. The July 16, 
1997 notice requested that the qualifications be submitted to the 
Department by August 13, 1997.
    This notice extends the due date for submission of qualifications 
indefinitely. By separate notice to be published in the Federal 
Register, the Department will announce the new due date for submission 
of qualifications. The announcement notice will provide sufficient 
notice of the new deadline date for submission of qualifications.
