Redelegation of Authority for the Office

of Housing, published on December 6,

1994, at 59 FR 62739. In this notice, the

functions related to the Multifamily

Coinsurance Program, to the Director,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

307 of the Housing and Community

Development Act of 1974 amended the

National Housing Act by adding a new

section 244, entitled ‘‘Coinsurance.’’ See

12 U.S.C. § 1715z–9. The Multifamily

Coinsurance Program was intended to

function as a joint venture between the

private and public sectors, in which

lenders and HUD would share mortgage

insurance risk, thereby providing an

alternative to traditional HUD full

insurance financing. The Multifamily

Coinsurance Program experienced an

unacceptably high level of loan defaults

and losses to the FHA General Insurance

Fund, and was ultimately terminated in

October of 1990. See 55 FR 41312,

published October 10, 1990.

In 1990, the Coinsurance Management

Division was established in the Office of

Multifamily Asset Management and

Disposition to provide oversight of the

coinsured and formerly coinsured (i.e.,

coinsured loans converted to full

insurance due to the failure of the

coinsuring lender) portfolios. In

September, 1995, with the decline of the

coinsured mortgage portfolio, the

Coinsurance Management Division was

abolished and the coinsurance

management workload was absorbed by

the Operations Division within the

Office of Multifamily Asset Management

and Disposition.

On December 6, 1994, at 59 FR 62739,

the Department published a Notice of

Revocation and Redelegation of

Authority which granted authority to

carry out the Multifamily Coinsurance

Program to various specified field

offices. That field reorganization

redelegation has been amended on

several occasions and remains in effect,

as amended.

Based upon a thorough analysis of the

coinsured and formerly coinsured

mortgage portfolio workload, in order to

best utilize its finite resources, and to

ensure that the Department is able to

most effectively service its coinsured

and formerly coinsured portfolio, the

Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal

Housing Commissioner has determined

to redelegate nationwide authority to

perform all functions related to the

Multifamily Coinsurance Program, to

the Director, Multifamily Housing

Division, in the Greensboro, North

Carolina field office.

Additionally, the coinsurance

regulations, at 24 CFR 251.3, 252.3 and

255.3, were revised to provide for the

conversion of individual coinsured

loans to full insurance, in conjunction

with either a full or partial claim

payment. See 61 FR 49036, published

September 17, 1996. Under this

revision, coinsuring lenders were given

the option of requesting that a coinsured

mortgage be converted to full insurance.

Under the coinsurance regulations, as

cited above, the Federal Housing

Commissioner has authority to endorse

such conversions from coinsurance to

full insurance. In this notice, the

Federal Housing Commissioner also

redelegates the authority to endorse

such requests, on a nationwide basis, to

the Director, Multifamily Housing

Division, in the Greensboro, North

Carolina field office.

Accordingly, the Assistant Secretary

for Housing-Federal Housing

Commissioner redelegages authority as

follows:

Section A. Authority Redelegated

Greensboro, North Carolina field office,
