implementing guidance of the Office of

(CFRFC) grant funds. Specifically, an

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

1605(a) of the Recovery Act provides 

that none of the funds appropriated or 

made available by the Recovery Act may 

be used for a project for the 

construction, alteration, maintenance, or 

repair of a public building or public 

work unless all of the iron, steel, and 

manufactured goods used in the project 

are produced in the United States. 

Section 1605(b) provides that the Buy 

American requirement shall not apply 

in any case or category in which the 

head of a Federal department or agency 

finds that: (1) Applying the Buy 

American requirement would be 

inconsistent with the public interest; (2) 

iron, steel, and the relevant 

manufactured goods are not produced in 

the U.S. in sufficient and reasonably 

available quantities or of satisfactory 

quality, or (3) inclusion of iron, steel, 

and manufactured goods will increase 

the cost of the overall project by more 

than 25 percent. Section 1605(c) 

provides that if the head of a Federal 

department or agency makes a 

determination pursuant to section 

1605(b), the head of the department or 

agency shall publish a detailed written 

justification in the Federal Register. 

In accordance with section 1605(c) of 

the Recovery Act and OMB’s 

implementing guidance published on 

April 23, 2009 (74 FR 18449), this notice 

advises the public that, on August 25, 

2010, upon request of the Jacksonville 

Housing Authority, HUD granted an 

exception to the applicability of the Buy 

American requirements with respect to 

work, using CFRFC grant funds, based 

on the fact that the relevant 

manufactured goods (programmable 

thermostats, CFL bulbs, and ENERGY 

STAR-qualified ceiling fans) are not 

produced in the U.S. in sufficient and 

reasonably available quantities or of 

satisfactory quality.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with 24 CFR part 581 and 

section 501 of the Stewart B. McKinney 

Homeless Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 

11411), as amended, HUD is publishing 

this Notice to identify Federal buildings 

and other real property that HUD has 

reviewed for suitability for use to assist 

the homeless. The properties were 

reviewed using information provided to 

HUD by Federal landholding agencies 

regarding unutilized and underutilized 

buildings and real property controlled 

by such agencies or by GSA regarding 

its inventory of excess or surplus 

Federal property. 

This Notice is also published in order 

to comply with the December 12, 1988 

Court Order in National Coalition for 

the Homeless v. Veterans 

Administration, No. 88–2503–OG 

(D.D.C.). 

Properties reviewed are listed in this 

Notice according to the following 

categories: Suitable/available, suitable/ 

unavailable, suitable/to be excess, and 

unsuitable. The properties listed in the 

three suitable categories have been 

reviewed by the landholding agencies, 

and each agency has transmitted to 

HUD: (1) Its intention to make the 

property available for use to assist the 

homeless, (2) its intention to declare the 

property excess to the agency’s needs, or 

(3) a statement of the reasons that the 

property cannot be declared excess or 

made available for use as facilities to 

assist the homeless. 

Properties listed as suitable/available 

will be available exclusively for

from the date of this Notice. Where 

property is described as for ‘‘off-site use 

only’’ recipients of the property will be 

required to relocate the building to their 

own site at their own expense. 

Homeless assistance providers 

interested in any such property should 

send a written expression of interest to 

HHS, addressed to Theresa Rita, 

Division of Property Management, 

Program Support Center, HHS, Room 

5B–17, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, 

MD 20857; (301) 443–2265. (This is not 

a toll-free number.) HHS will mail to the 

interested provider an application 

packet, which will include instructions 

for completing the application. In order 

to maximize the opportunity to utilize a 

suitable property, providers should 

submit their written expressions of 

interest as soon as possible. For 

complete details concerning the 

processing of applications, the reader is 

encouraged to refer to the interim rule 

governing this program, 24 CFR part 

581. 

For properties listed as suitable/to be 

excess, that property may, if 

subsequently accepted as excess by 

GSA, be made available for use by the 

homeless in accordance with applicable 

law, subject to screening for other 

Federal use. At the appropriate time, 

HUD will publish the property in a 

Notice showing it as either suitable/ 

available or suitable/unavailable. 

For properties listed as suitable/ 

unavailable, the landholding agency has 

decided that the property cannot be 

declared excess or made available for 

use to assist the homeless, and the 

property will not be available. 

Properties listed as unsuitable will 

not be made available for any other 

purpose for 20 days from the date of this 

Notice. Homeless assistance providers 

interested in a review by HUD of the 

determination of unsuitability should 

call the toll free information line at 1– 

800–927–7588 for detailed instructions 

or write a letter to Mark Johnston at the 

address listed at the beginning of this 

Notice. Included in the request for
