Agencies Appropriations Act of 1992 (Pub. L. 102-139, approved October

persons with disabilities.
    The purpose of the set-aside is to assist eligible homeless 
families with disabilities to pay the rent for decent, safe, and 
sanitary housing. The FY 94 awards announced in this notice were 
selected for funding in a competition announced in a Federal Register 
notice published on February 1, 1994 (59 FR 4758). Applications were 
scored and selected for funding on the basis of selection criteria 
contained in that notice.
    A total of $42,245,630 of budget authority for rental vouchers 
(1,107 units) was awarded to 10 recipients. In accordance with section 
102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Reform 
Act of 1989 (Pub. L. 101-235, approved December 15, 1989), the 
Department is publishing the names, addresses, and amounts of those 
awards as shown in Appendix A.
