Background 

The Department of Homeland 

Security (DHS), through the United 

States Coast Guard and the 

Transportation Security Administration 

(TSA), issued a joint final rule (72 FR 

3492; January 25, 2007) pursuant to the 

Maritime Transportation Security Act 

(MTSA), Public Law 107–295, 116 Stat. 

2064 (November 25, 2002), and the 

Security and Accountability for Every 

Port Act of 2006 (SAFE Port Act), Public 

Law 109–347 (October 13, 2006). This 

rule requires all credentialed merchant 

mariners and individuals with 

unescorted access to secure areas of a 

regulated facility or vessel to obtain a 

TWIC. In this final rule, on page 3510, 

TSA and Coast Guard stated that a 

phased enrollment approach based 

upon risk assessment and cost/benefit 

would be used to implement the 

program nationwide, and that TSA 

would publish a notice in the Federal 

Register indicating when enrollment at 

a specific location will begin and when 

it is expected to terminate. 

This notice provides the start date for 

TWIC initial enrollment at the Port of 

American Samoa on August 20, 2008. 

The Coast Guard will publish a separate 

notice in the Federal Register indicating 

when facilities within the Captain of the 

Port Zone Guam including those in the 

Port of American Samoa must comply 

with the portions of the final rule 

requiring TWIC to be used as an access 

control measure. That notice will be 

published at least 90 days before 

compliance is required.

enrollment locations, visit TSA’s TWIC

international registered traveler

International Registered Traveler (IRT), 

scheduled to commence operations at

in effect except for the changes set forth 

in this notice. Applications to

[Docket No. FR–5220–N–02] 

Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) 

for the Continuum of Care Homeless 

Assistance Program: Deadline for 

Applications and Technical 

Corrections 

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant 

Secretary for Community Planning and 

Development, HUD. 

ACTION: Notice of Funding Availability 

(NOFA). 

SUMMARY: On July 10, 2008, HUD 

published in the Federal Register the 

NOFA for the Continuum of Care (CoC) 

Homeless Assistance Program. Through 

this NOFA, HUD is making available 

approximately $1.42 billion in Fiscal 

Year (FY) 2008 for the CoC program. 

The purpose of the CoC program is to 

reduce the incidence of homelessness in 

communities by assisting homeless 

individuals and families to move to self 

sufficiency and permanent housing. 

Today’s publication establishes the 

deadline date for the submission of 

applications and corrects or clarifies 

portions of the CoC NOFA published on 

July 10, 2008. 

DATES: The application submission date 

for applications is September 26, 2008. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Individuals may direct questions 

regarding the CoC NOFA to the HUD 

Field Office serving their area, at the 

telephone numbers shown in HUD’s 

Notice of Fiscal Year (FY) 2008 Notice 

of Funding Availability (NOFA); Policy 

Requirements and General Section to 

HUD’s FY2008 NOFAs for Discretionary 

Programs (General Section) published 

on March 19, 2008 (73 FR 14883), or 

may contact the e-snaps Help Desk at 1–

877–6esnaps (1–877–637–6277). 

Individuals who are hearing- or speechimpaired should use the Information 

Relay Service at 1–800–877–8339 (these 

are toll-free numbers). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 

30, 2008 (73 FR 23483), HUD published 

its Notice of FY2008 Opportunity to 

Register and Other Important 

Information for Electronic Application 

Submission for Continuum of Care 

Homeless Assistance Programs (CoC 

Early Registration Notice). The CoC 

Early Registration Notice alerted the 

public that HUD would require 

Continuums of Care to submit 

applications electronically, using esnaps, an electronic system separate 

from Grants.gov. On July 10, 2008 (73 

FR 39840), HUD published its CoC 

NOFA, making available approximately 

$1.42 billion in FY 2008 for the CoC 

program. The purpose of the CoC 

program is to reduce the incidence of 

homelessness in communities by 

assisting homeless individuals and 

families to move to self sufficiency and 

permanent housing. In the July 10, 2008, 

CoC NOFA, HUD stated that the 

application portion of the e-snaps 

system had not yet been launched and 

that HUD, as a result, was unable to 

establish a due date for the FY2008 CoC 

competition. HUD stated, however, that 

it would announce the application due 

date for the program through separate 

Federal Register notice. Today’s 

publication establishes the deadline 

date for the submission of applications. 

Today’s publication also corrects or 

clarifies the CoC NOFA published on 

July 10, 2008. 

Deadline for Applications 

The application deadline date for the 

CoC NOFA is September 26, 2008. 

Electronic applications must be received 

by e-snaps by 4 p.m. eastern time on the 

deadline date. HUD will close e-snaps at 

4:01 p.m. eastern time. Similarly, paper 

applications from applicants granted a 

waiver from the electronic application 

submission requirement must be 

received by HUD by 4 p.m. eastern 

standard time on the deadline date. 

Summary of Technical Corrections 

Today’s publication also corrects or 

clarifies a number of sections of the July 

10, 2008, CoC NOFA. These corrections 

and clarifications are listed below by 

page and section. 

On page 39840, Overview 

Information, Section F., first column, 

entitled ‘‘Dates,’’ HUD is revising this 

section to conform to the deadline date 

for applications established by today’s 

publication. HUD had hoped to 

establish a deadline date at least 60 days 

from the publication date of today’s 

publication. While the deadline date 

established by today’s publication falls 

short of meeting this goal, HUD has 

attempted to provide potential CoC 

applicants 60 days notice of the 

deadline date by posting the deadline 

date for applications at http:// 

www.hud.gov/esnaps. 

On page 39845, Section III.A.1., HUD 

is correcting the eligibility chart, fourth 

column under ‘‘Section 8 SRO’’ to note 

that homeless individuals eligible for 

SRO need not be disabled. 

On page 39851, Section V.1.e., third 

column, entitled ‘‘Emphasis on Housing 

Activities,’’ HUD is correcting this 

paragraph to note that HUD will award 

points based on the relationship 

between funds requested for housing 

activities and funds requested for 

supportive services activities among 

both new and renewal projects. 

On page 39854, Section VI.B.1.a., 

second column, HUD inadvertently 

indicated that it will use five 

measurable indicators related to the 

Continuum of Care homeless assistance 

programs based on the Government 

Performance and Results Act. In fact, 

HUD will use four indicators. 

Accordingly, the Notice of HUD’s 

Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) 

for the Continuum of Care Homeless 

Assistance Program, published on July 

10, 2008, beginning at 73 FR 39840, is 

corrected as follows:
