[Docket No. FR–5081–C–04] 

RIN 2501–AD23 

Civil Money Penalties: Certain 

Prohibited Conduct; Technical 

Amendment 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HUD. 

ACTION: Final rule, technical 

amendment. 

SUMMARY: On January 15, 2009, HUD 

published a final rule to revise HUD’s 

regulations that govern the imposition 

of civil money penalties. The effect of 

the rulemaking was to remove one item 

from the list of actions for which the 

Mortgagee Review Board may initiate a 

civil money penalty action against a 

mortgagee or lender, reducing the list 

from 15 numbered items to 14, and 

redesignating the 15th item as item 

number 14. However, a related cross 

reference was not updated to reflect this 

change. In addition, a section revised in 

2006 involving delinquent mortgages, 

also requires a cross-reference change. 

This document corrects these crossreferences. 

DATES: Effective Date: April 1, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

January 15, 2009 (74 FR 2750), HUD 

published a final rule that revised 

HUD’s regulations that govern the 

imposition of civil money penalties, 

located at part 30 of Title 24 of the Code 

of Federal Regulations. The final rule 

followed a proposed rule published on 

October 17, 2008 (73 FR 61754), that 

provided a 60 day public comment 

period. HUD received no comments in 

response to the proposed rule, the 

proposed rule was adopted as final 

without change., The rule was adopted 

as final effective February 17, 2009, see 

74 FR 2750, Jan. 15, 2009. 

The civil money penalty regulations 

at 24 CFR 30.35 contain a list of actions, 

the commission of which allows the 

mortgagee review board to initiate a 

civil money penalty action. There were 

originally 14 such actions (see 61 FR 

50216–50217). On April 26, 2005, HUD 

amended the rule to add a 15th action, 

failure to engage in loss mitigation. This 

action was codified at 24 CFR 

30.35(a)(15). Along with this addition, 

24 CFR 30.35(c)(2) was added pursuant 

to statutory requirement to provide for 

a triple civil money penalty for 

violations of this section. 

On January 15, 2009, HUD adopted as 

final regulations that revised 24 CFR 

30.35(a) to remove item 24 CFR 

30.35(a)(14) from the list, and to 

redesignate the failure to engage in loss 

mitigation item from 24 CFR 

30.35(a)(15) to 24 CFR 30.35(a)(14) (74 

FR 2751, Jan. 15, 2009). However, the 

2009 rule failed to incorporate the 

related cross reference. Therefore, this 

technical amendment revises 24 CFR 

30.35(c)(2) to refer to § 30.35(a)(14). 

The civil money penalty regulations 

at § 30.35(a)(9)(vi) contain a provision 

stating that the mortgagee review board 

may initiate a civil money penalty 

action for failure to report all delinquent 

mortgages to HUD. Section 

30.35(a)(9)(vi) cross-references § 203.332 

on delinquent mortgages. In 2006, 

§ 203.332 was moved to § 203.330 and 

revised (71 FR 16234, Mar.31, 2006). 

Therefore, this technical amendment 

revises the cross-reference.
