SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

The information collection

requirements contained in this rule have

been submitted to the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) for

review under the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1980 and have been assigned

OMB control number 2577–0140.

I. Purpose and Substantive Description

(a) Authority

(1) This program is authorized by

Section 520 of the National Affordable

Housing Act (NAHA) (approved

November 28, 1990, Pub. L. 101–625), as

amended by section 126 of the Housing

and Community Development Act of

1992 (HCDA 1992) (Pub. L. 102–550,

approved October 28, 1992).

(2) 24 CFR part 135. Section 3 of the

Housing and Urban Development Act of

1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701u) and the

regulations at 24 CFR part 135 (see June

30, 1994 Interim Rule, 59 FR 33866) are

applicable to funding awards made

under this NOFA. One of the purposes

of the assistance is to give to the greatest

extent feasible, and consistent with

existing Federal, State, and local laws

and regulations, job training,

employment, contracting and other

economic opportunities to public

housing residents and other low and

very-low income persons (section 3

residents) and business concerns which

provide economic opportunities to

section 3 residents (section 3 business

concerns).

(b) Allocation Amounts

Section 126(a) of HCDA (1992)

provides that five percent of any amount

made available in any fiscal year for the

Drug Elimination Program shall be

available for Youth Sports Program

grants. The Departments of Veterans

Affairs and Housing and Urban

Development, and Independent

Agencies Appropriations Act 1995,

(approved September 28, 1994, Pub. L.

103–327), (95 App. Act) appropriated

$290 million for the Drug Elimination

Program in FY 1995. After deductions

for Technical Assistance ($10 million)

and Clearinghouse ($1.5 million), this

appropriation results in $13,925,000 as

the amount set aside for the Youth

Sports Program.

Program funds are to be used for

sports, cultural, educational,

recreational, or other activities designed

to appeal to youth as alternatives to the

drug environment in public or Indian

housing developments. Because of the

limited amount of funding appropriated

for this program, and to ensure that the

program is implemented on a broad,

nationwide basis, each applicant may

submit only one application. The

maximum annual Youth Sports grant

amount per applicant is $125,000. As

more fully explained below, applicants

must supplement grant funds with an

amount of funds from non-Federal

sources equal to or greater than 50

percent of the amount provided by the

grant.

(c) Eligibility

(1) Eligible Applicants

Funding for this program in FY 1995

is limited to PHAs and IHAs. Although

Section 520 of NAHA lists seven

categories of entities qualified to receive

grants (States; units of general local

government; local park and recreation

districts and agencies; public housing

agencies (PHAs); nonprofit

organizations providing youth sports

services programs; Indian tribes; and

Indian housing authorities (IHAs)), and

HCDA 1992 section 126(b) added

institutions of higher learning that have

never participated in a Youth Sports

program as eligible applicants, the 95

App. Act limited the funding for the

Drug Elimination Program to PHAs and

IHAs only. Since the funding of the

Youth Sports Program is dependent on

the appropriation for the Drug

Elimination Program, the limitations

that apply to Drug Elimination affect

Youth Sports as well. Therefore, for FY

1995 only PHAs and IHAs are eligible

applicants for Youth Sports Program

Funding.

In designing an activity for funding,

PHA and IHA applicants shall consult

with RMCs/RCs where they exist, and

with other entities that would be

eligible for funding under this program,

as listed above, with at least two years

of experience in designing or operating

sports, cultural, recreational,

educational or other activities for youth.

Eligible local entities that are affiliates

of national organizations may rely on

the experience of the national

organization for this purpose. These

consultations will provide applicants

with valuable resident input and will

involve entities with experience in

designing and implementing the eligible

types of activities under this program

with PHA and IHA applicants that may

not have this type of experience. These

experienced entities may establish a

sub-contracting relationship, in

accordance with 24 CFR part 85, with

the PHA/IHA if deemed appropriate by

the grantee to further their public/

private partnership. This consultation

process will also provide entities that

are not PHAs or IHAs with a greater

appreciation and understanding of the
Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 6 / Tuesday, January 10, 1995 / Notices 2647

operations and problems of public and

Indian housing developments. The end

result will be more effective program

activities that make more efficient use of

program funds. This result is expected

because it draws upon and combines the

expertise of PHA and IHA applicants

with respect to the operations and

problems of public and Indian housing

developments, and the expertise of

other entities with respect to designing

and implementing youth activities.

(2) Eligible Activities

Youth Sports Program funds may be

used to assist in carrying out sports,

cultural, recreational, educational or

other activities for youth in any of the

following manners:

(i) Acquisition, construction, or

rehabilitation of community centers,

parks, or playgrounds is an eligible

activity under the Youth Sports

Program.

(A) Acquisition, construction or

rehabilitation costs shall not be

approved unless the applicant

demonstrates the need for the type of

facilities to be assisted by the grant

(Section III.(a)(3) of this NOFA).

(B) Facilities that receive Youth

Sports funding must be used primarily

for youth from the public or Indian

housing developments in which the

funded facility is operated (Section

III.(a)(2)(ii) and III.(a)(10)(iii) of this

NOFA).

(C) Facilities (community centers,

parks, or playgrounds) acquired,

constructed, or rehabilitated under this

program must be on or adjacent to the

premises of the public housing

development identified in the

application for assistance under this

program. In the case of Indian Housing

Authorities, the applicant must specify

how youth from IHA developments will

have access to the facility, since IHAs

often cover large areas (Section III.(a)(9)

of this NOFA).

(D) Facilities receiving Youth Sports

funding must comply with any

applicable local or tribal building

requirements for recreational facilities

(Section III.(a)(2)(iii) of this NOFA).

(E) Facilities receiving Youth Sports

funding must be used for Youth Sports

activities commensurate with the extent

of the Youth Sports funding. For

example, if a facility’s operation is

funded 60 percent by a Youth Sports

grant, then it must be used at least 60

percent for Youth Sports activities.

(F) In accordance with the

requirements of 24 CFR 8.21, facilities

should be designed and constructed to

be readily accessible to and usable by

individuals with handicaps. Alterations

to existing facilities shall, to the

maximum extent feasible, make them

readily accessible to and usable by

individuals with handicaps.

(G) In accordance with the

requirements of 24 CFR 8.20, no

qualified applicant with handicaps

shall, because a recipient’s facilities are

inaccessible to or unusable by

individuals with handicaps, be denied

the benefit of, be excluded from

participation in, or otherwise be

subjected to discrimination in the

program.

(ii) Redesigning or modifying public

spaces in public or Indian housing

developments to provide increased

utilization of the areas by Youth Sports

activities is an eligible activity under

this program.

(A) The construction of sports

facilities on public or Indian housing

property to implement Youth Sports

activities is permitted under this

program. These facilities may include,

but not be limited to, baseball

diamonds, basketball courts, football

fields, tutoring centers, swimming

pools, soccer fields, public or Indian

housing community centers, and tennis

courts.

(iii) Provision of public services,

including salaries and expenses for staff

of youth sports programs, cultural

activities, transportation costs,

educational programs relating to drug

abuse, and sports and recreation

equipment are eligible activities under

this program.

(A) Educational programs for youth

relating to illegal drug use are permitted

under this section. The program must be

formally organized and provide the

knowledge and skills youth need to

make informed decisions on the

potential and immediate dangers of drug

abuse and involvement with illegal

drugs. Grantees may contract with drug

education professionals to provide the

appropriate training or workshops.

These educational programs may be part

of organized sports activities or other

eligible youth activities.

(B) Activities providing an economic/

educational orientation for Youth Sports

Program participants are eligible for

funding as public services. These

activities must provide, for public or

Indian housing youth, the opportunities

for interaction with, or referral to,

higher educational or vocational

institutions, and develop the skills of

program participants to pursue

educational, vocational, and economic

goals. These activities may also provide

public or Indian housing youth the

opportunity to interact with private

sector businesses in their community

with the purpose of promoting the

development of educational, vocational,

and economic goals in public or Indian

housing youth.

(C) The cost of the initial purchase of

sports and recreation equipment to be

used by program participants is

permitted under this program.

(D) Cultural and recreational

activities, such as ethnic heritage

classes, and art, dance, drama and

music appreciation and instruction

programs are eligible Youth Sports

Program activities.

(E) Youth leadership skills training for

program participants is permitted under

this program. These activities must

provide opportunities designed to

involve public and Indian housing

youth in peer leadership roles in the

implementation of program activities,

for example, as team or activity

captains, counselors to younger program

participants, assistant coaches, and

equipment or supplies managers.

Grantees may contract with youth

trainers to provide services which may

include training in peer pressure

reversal, resistance or refusal skills, goal

planning, parenting skills, and other

relevant topics.

(F) Transportation costs directly

related to Youth Sports activities (for

example, leasing a vehicle to transport

a Youth Sports team to a game) are

eligible program expenses.

(G) The purchase of vehicles under

this program is prohibited.

(H) Liability insurance costs directly

related to Youth Sports activities are

eligible program expenses.

(3) Threshold requirements for

funding.

Every activity proposed for funding

under the Youth Sports Program must

satisfy each of the following

requirements or it will not be

considered for funding:

(i) The activity must be operated as,

in conjunction with, or in furtherance

of, an organized program or plan

(d) Selection Criteria

Each application for a grant award

that is submitted in a timely manner to

the local HUD field office or, in the case

of IHAs, to the appropriate HUD Office

of Native American Programs, and that

otherwise meets the requirements of this

NOFA, will be evaluated. An

application must receive a minimum

score of 65 points out of the maximum

of 100 points that may be awarded

under this competition to be eligible for

funding. Grants will be awarded to the

three highest-ranked, eligible PHA

applications within each of the

following 10 groupings of Area and

State Offices:

New England

New York, New Jersey

Mid-Atlantic

Southeast

Midwest

Great Plains

Rocky Mountain

Southwest

Northwest/Alaska

Pacific/Hawaii

In addition, grants will be awarded to

the three highest-ranked, eligible IHA

applications on a nation-wide basis,

subject to the following condition: of the

total grants awarded to IHAs, the

Director of ONAP retains the authority

to insure that each Field Office of Native

American programs receives a minimum

of one eligible grant. This means that

before an award is made to an IHA from

the jurisdiction of a Field ONAP in

which an IHA has already received an

award, that award may be made to the

next highest scoring IHA from the

jurisdiction of a Field ONAP in which

no IHA has yet received an award.

All of the remaining eligible

applications, both PHAs and IHAs, will

then be placed in overall nation-wide

ranking order, with the remaining funds

granted in order of rank, except as

discussed above for IHAs, until all

funds are awarded. The following

criteria will be used to evaluate eligible

applications:

(1) The extent to which the Youth

Sports activities to be assisted with the

CFR part 1, which state that no person

in the United States shall, on the ground

of race, color or national origin, be

excluded from participation in, be

denied the benefits of, or be otherwise

subjected to discrimination under any

program or activity for which the

applicant receives financial assistance;

and will immediately take any measures

necessary to effectuate this agreement.

With reference to the real property and

structures which are provided or

improved with the aid of federal

financial assistance extended to the

applicant, this assurance shall obligate

the applicant, or in the case of any

transfer, the transferee, for the period

during which the real property and

structures are used for a purpose for

which the federal financial assistance is

extended or for another purpose

involving the provision of similar

services or benefits;

(B) It will comply with the Fair

Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 3601–3620) and

with implementing regulations at 24

CFR part 100, which prohibit

discrimination in housing on the basis

of race, color, religion, sex, handicap,

familial status or national origin, and

will administer its programs and

activities relating to housing in a

manner affirmatively to further fair

housing;

(C) It will comply with Executive

order 11063 on Equal Opportunity in

Housing and with implementing

with federal financial assistance;

(D) It will comply with Executive

order 11246 and its implementing

regulations at 42 CFR chapter 60–1,

which state that no person shall be

discriminated against on the basis of

race, color, religion, sex or national

origin in any phase of employment

during the performance of federal

contracts, and that affected persons

shall take affirmative action to ensure

equal employment opportunity. The

applicant will incorporate, or cause to

be incorporated, into any contract for

construction work as defined in 24 CFR

130.5, the equal opportunity clause

required by § 130.15(b);

(E) It will comply with the

requirements of section 3 of the Housing

and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12

U.S.C. 1701u), and with the regulations

at 24 CFR part 135. For IHAs this

certification will be made to the

maximum extent consistent with, but

not in derogation of, compliance with

section 7(b) of the Indian Selfdetermination and Education Assistance

Act (25 U.S.C. 450e(b)).

(F) It will comply with section 504 of

the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C.

794) and with implementing regulations

at 24 CFR part 8, which prohibit

discrimination based on handicap in

federally assisted and conducted

programs and activities;

(G) It will comply with the Age

Discrimination Act of 1975 (42 U.S.C.

6101–6107) and implementing

because of age in projects and activities

receiving federal financial assistance;

(H) It will comply with Executive

Americans with Disabilities Act (42

U.S.C. 12131) and with implementing

(3) A description of the nature of the

services to be provided by the

applicant’s proposed Youth Sports

Program, including an explanation of

the way in which the activities or

facilities proposed for funding address

the particular needs of the area to be

served by the program.

(4) A workplan with an 18 months

maximum task timeline providing an

implementation schedule for the Youth

Sports activities.

(5) A budget describing the financial

and other resources committed to each

activity and service of the program. The

budget must identify the share of the

costs of the applicant’s Youth Sports

activities provided by a grant under this

program and provide a narrative

describing how the share of the costs

provided from other sources of funds

(e.g. local or tribal government,

corporations, individuals), including

funds from non-Federal sources, will be

obtained.

(6) A statement regarding the extent to

which the applicant’s proposed Youth

Sports activities meet the selection

criteria in Section I. (d), above.

(7) A plan designed to eliminate drugs

and drug-related problems on the

premises of the housing developments

proposed for funding. Applicants are

given a choice to satisfy this

requirement in one of two ways. First,

an applicant may submit a current-year

plan prepared for the housing

developments in accordance with 24

CFR 961.15 as a part of a Drug

Elimination Program grant. In this case,

the applicant must indicate how its

proposed Youth Sports activities will be

operated as, in conjunction with, or in

furtherance of the 961.15 plan. The

other choice is that an applicant may

submit an abbreviated plan prepared for

this NOFA as follows:

(i) The plan must describe the drugrelated problems in the developments

that are proposed for funding under this

program, using:
Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 6 / Tuesday, January 10, 1995 / Notices 2651

(A) Objective data, if available, from

the local police precinct or the PHA’s or

IHA’s records on the types, number and

sources of drug-related crime in the

developments proposed for assistance. If

crime statistics are not available at the

development or precinct level, the

applicant may use other reliable,

objective data including those derived

from the records of Resident

Management Corporations (RMCs),

Resident Organizations (ROs), Resident

Corporations (RCs), or other resident

associations. The data should cover the

past one-year period and, to the extent

feasible, should indicate whether these

data reflect a percentage increase or

decrease in drug-related crime over the

past several years.

(B) Information from other sources

which has a direct bearing on drugrelated problems in the developments

proposed for assistance. Examples of

these data are: resident/staff surveys on

drug-related issues or on-site reviews to

determine drug activity; vandalism costs

and related vacancies attributable to

drug-related crime; information from

schools, health service providers,

residents and police.

(ii) The plan must include a narrative

discussion of the applicant’s current

activities, if any, to eliminate drugrelated problems in the targeted

developments. Any efforts being

undertaken by community and

governmental entities, residents of the

development, Resident Management

Corporations (RMCs), Resident

Organizations (ROs), Resident

Corporations (RCs), other resident

associations, or any other entities to

address the drug-related problems in the

developments proposed for assistance

must be described. The applicant must

also indicate how its proposed Youth

Sports activities will be operated as, in

conjunction with, or in furtherance of

the other activities described in the

plan.

(8) An estimate of the number of

youth involved.

(i) The applicant must provide the

total estimated number of youth

involved for each proposed activity and

participating in youth leadership

assignments (for example, team

managers, assistant managers, team

captains) computed on an annual and,

if applicable, a session or seasonal basis

(for example, classes or league sports

may be organized in sessions or seasons

that run for a certain number of weeks

or months, or more activities may take

place and more youth may be involved

on weekends than on weekdays).

(ii) The total estimated number given

for each activity must be further broken

down by categories of age (e.g., 5–8

years old, 9–12 years old, etc.), sex

(male, female, co-ed), and residency in

public or Indian housing.

(9) A description of the facilities used.

(i) Facilities to be used for Youth

Sports activities must be described in

the application with regard to their

dimensions, location, accessibility to

the disabled, and the number of youth

that can be accommodated at one time.

(A) In the case of an Indian housing

development, if a facility to be acquired,

constructed, or rehabilitated is not

located on or adjacent to the premises

of the development to be assisted, the

application must specify how youth

from the Indian housing development

will have access to the facility (e.g.,

transportation will be provided,

transportation service is readily

available).

(ii) Where applicable, the application

must provide a detailed explanation of

all facility acquisition, construction,

rehabilitation, operation, redesign or

modification proposed for funding

under this program.

(A) The application must specify what

percent of the facility will be used for

youth activities (as opposed to, for

example, senior citizen or adult

activities). This percentage may not be

less than the percentage of Youth Sports

funding provided for the facility.

(iii) The application must identify the

entity that will be responsible for the

operation of any facility funded by a

Youth Sports grant.

(10) A description of the organization

of the applicant’s proposed Youth

Sports program, which must detail:

(i) The consultations entered into by

the applicant with RMCs/RCs, where

they exist, and other entities

experienced in the design and

implementation of the type of proposed

youth sports activities;

(ii) The position descriptions, or if the

identity of persons who will fill

positions is known, the resumes, of the

staff that will be responsible for

managing and operating the Youth

Sports activities must be included in the

application; if volunteers are involved,

their number, job descriptions, and

hours per week of involvement must be

included;

(iii) The procedures that will be

followed to ensure that the Youth Sports

activities or facilities will serve

primarily youth from the public or

Indian housing development in which

the program to be assisted by a grant is

operated must be explained in the

application.

(11) A description of the extent of

involvement of local sports

organizations or sports figures.

(i) The applicant must provide

documentation of the level of on-site or

other participation by local and

nationally affiliated sports

organizations, except as provided in

Section (ii) below, with at least two

years of organizational and operational

experience. These may include, but are

not limited to, strictly sports

organizations, such as, Little Leagues,

Midnight Basketball, or professional

teams. Participation by cultural,

recreational, or educational

organizations is also permissible. The

participation of these groups must be

focused on the youth activities for

which the application is prepared.

(ii) The applicant may demonstrate

the involvement of local or national

sports, cultural, recreational or

educational figures, such as athletes,

coaches, artists, entertainers and

teachers in place of, or in addition to,

the participation of organizations. The

participation of these figures must be

focused on the youth activities for

which the application is prepared.

(12) A description of plans and

resources to continue the Youth Sports

activities beyond the grant term under

this program, including the commitment

of entities (e.g., local and tribal

governments, corporations, community

organizations) and individuals to

continue their involvement in the

applicant’s Youth Sports activities and

facilities.

(13) HUD Form 2880.

IV. Corrections to Deficient

Applications

(a) HUD will notify an applicant, in

writing, of any curable technical

deficiencies in the application. The

applicant must submit corrections in

accordance with the information

specified in HUD’s letter within 14

calendar days from the date of receipt of

HUD’s letter notifying the applicant of

any such deficiency.

(b) Curable technical deficiencies

relate to items that:

(1) Are not necessary for HUD review

under selection criteria/ranking factors;

and

(2) Will not improve the substantive

quality of the proposal. An example of

a technical deficiency would be the

failure of an applicant to submit a

certification with its proposal.

V. Other Matters

(a) Environmental Impact

A Finding of No Significant Impact

(FONSI) with respect to the

environment has been made in

accordance with HUD regulations at 24

CFR part 50 that implement section
2652 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 6 / Tuesday, January 10, 1995 / Notices

102(2)(C) of the National Environmental

Policy Act of 1969, 42 U.S.C. 4332. The

FONSI is available for public inspection

and copying from 7:30 to 5:30 weekdays

in the Office of the Rules Docket Clerk,

Room 10276, 451 Seventh Street, SW.,

Washington, DC 20401. HUD will

review all applications and their

proposed activities in accordance with

the environmental requirements of 24

CFR part 50.

(b) Federalism Impact

The General Counsel, as the

Designated Official under section 6(a) of

Executive Order 12612, Federalism, has

determined that the provisions of this

NOFA do not have ‘‘federalism

implications’’ within the meaning of the

Order. The NOFA implements a

program that provides positive sports,

cultural, recreational, educational or

other activities designed to appeal to

youth as alternatives to the drug

environment in public and Indian

housing, and makes available grants to

PHAs and IHAs to help them implement

these activities. As such, the program

helps PHAs and IHAs to combat serious

drug-related crime problems in their

developments, thereby strengthening

their role as instrumentalities of the

States. Further review under the Order

is also unnecessary since the NOFA

generally tracks the statute and involves

little implementing discretion.

(c) Family Impact

The General Counsel, as the

Designated Official for Executive Order

12606, the Family, has determined that

the provisions of this NOFA have the

potential for significant positive impact

on family formation, maintenance and

general well-being within the meaning

of the Order. The NOFA implements a

program that provides positive sports,

cultural, recreational, educational or

other activities designed to appeal to

youth as alternatives to the drug

environment in public and Indian

housing, and makes available grants to

PHAs and IHAs to help them implement

these activities. As such, the program is

intended to improve the quality of life

of public and Indian housing

development residents by reducing the

incidence of drug-related crime and

should have a strong positive effect on

family formation, maintenance and

general well-being for PHAs and IHAs

selected for funding. Further review

under the Order is also not necessary

since the NOFA essentially tracks the

authorizing legislation and involves

little exercise of HUD discretion.

(d) Section 102 HUD Reform Act

Documentation and public access

requirements. HUD will ensure that

documentation and other information

regarding each application submitted

pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to

indicate the basis upon which

assistance was provided or denied. This

material, including any letters of

support, will be made available for

public inspection for a five-year period

beginning not less than 30 days after the

award of the assistance. Material will be

made available in accordance with the

Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.

552) and HUD’s implementing

regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In

addition, HUD will include the

recipients of assistance pursuant to this

NOFA in its quarterly Federal Register

notice of all recipients of HUD

assistance awarded on a competitive

basis. (See 24 CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b),

and the notice published in the Federal

Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR

1942), for further information on these

documentation and public access

requirements.)

Disclosures

HUD will make available to the public

for five years all applicant disclosure

reports (HUD Form 2880) submitted in

connection with this NOFA. Update

reports (also Form 2880) will be made

available along with the applicant

disclosure reports, but in no case for a

period of less than three years. All

reports—both applicant disclosures and

updates—will be made available in

accordance with the Freedom of

Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and

HUD’s implementing regulations at 24

CFR part 15, subpart C, and the notice

published in the Federal Register on

January 16, 1992 (57 FR 1942), for

further information on these disclosure

requirements.)

(e) Section 103 HUD Reform Act

HUD’s regulation implementing

section 103 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development

Reform Act of 1989 was published May

13, 1991 (56 FR 22088) and became

effective on June 12, 1991. That

regulation, codified as 24 CFR part 4,

applies to the funding competition

announced today. The requirements of

the rule continue to apply until the

announcement of the selection of

successful applicants. HUD employees

involved in the review of applications

and in the making of funding decisions

are limited by part 4 from providing

advance information to any person

(other than an authorized employee of

HUD) concerning funding decisions, or

from otherwise giving any applicant an

unfair competitive advantage. Persons

who apply for assistance in this

competition should confine their

inquiries to the subject areas permitted

under 24 CFR part 4.

Applicants who have questions

should contact the HUD Office of Ethics

(202) 708–3815. (This is not a toll-free

number.) The Office of Ethics can

provide information of a general nature

to HUD employees, as well. However, a

HUD employee who has specific

program questions, such as whether

particular subject matter can be

discussed with persons outside the

Department, should contact his or her

Regional or Field Office Counsel, or

Headquarters counsel for the program to

which the question pertains.

(f) Section 112 HUD Reform Act

Section 13 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development Act

contains two provisions dealing with

efforts to influence HUD’s decisions

with respect to financial assistance. The

first imposes disclosure requirements on

those who are typically involved in

these efforts—those who pay others to

influence the award of assistance or the

taking of a management action by the

Department and those who are paid to

provide the influence. The second

restricts the payment of fees to those

who are paid to influence the award of

HUD assistance, if the fees are tied to

the number of housing units received or

are based on the amount of assistance

received, or if they are contingent upon

the receipt of assistance. Section 13 was

implemented by final rule published in

the Federal Register on May 17, 1991

(56 FR 22912).

Any questions regarding the rule

should be directed to Director, Office of

Ethics, room 2158, Department of

Housing and Urban Development, 451

Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, D.C.

20410. Telephone: (202) 708–3815;

TDD: (202) 708–1112. (These are not

toll-free numbers.) Forms necessary for

compliance with the rule may be

obtained from the local HUD office.
