which added a new section 5A to the

needs.

has elsewhere delegated to the Assistant

Secretary for PIH the authority for

administering the U.S. Housing Act of

disapproval of the plans, to the Offices

of Public Housing Hub Directors,

Program Center Coordinators and

Centers, except as provided in Section

B, below.

Section B. Authority Excepted

(1) The authority redelegated does not

include the authority to waive

regulations; and

(2) The Offices of Public Housing Hub

Directors, Program Center Coordinators

and Directors of Troubled Agency

Recovery Centers may exercise the

authority redelegated to disapprove a

PHA plan on the grounds that the plan

law only with the concurrence of the

Assistant Secretary or his or her

designee.
