of the amount made available for obligation as of October 1 of the 
current fiscal year, and shall be applied to projects within the same 
general geographic area within 5 miles for which the funding was 
designated, except that a State or territory may apply such authority 
to unexpended balances of funds from projects or activities the State 
or territory certifies have been closed and for which payments have 
been made under a final voucher.

    (b) Phased Transfers.--Transfers of project-based assistance under 
this section may be done in phases to accommodate the financing and

    (c) The transfer authorized in subsection (a) is subject to the 
following conditions:
            (1) Number and bedroom size of units.--
                    (A) For occupied units in the transferring project,

                the configuration (i.e., bedroom size) provided by the 
                transferring project shall be no less than when 
                transferred to the receiving project or projects and 
                the net dollar amount of Federal assistance provided to 
                the transferring project shall remain the same in the 
                receiving project or projects.
                    (B) For unoccupied units in the transferring 
                project, the Secretary may authorize a reduction in the 
                number of dwelling units in the receiving project or 
                projects to allow for a reconfiguration of bedroom 
                sizes to meet current market demands, as determined by 
                the Secretary and provided there is no increase in the 
                project-based assistance budget authority.
            (2) The transferring project shall, as determined by the 
        Secretary, be either physically obsolete or economically 
        nonviable.
            (3) The receiving project or projects shall meet or exceed 
        applicable physical standards established by the Secretary.
            (4) The owner or mortgagor of the transferring project

        transferring project and provide a certification of approval by 
        all appropriate local governmental officials.
            (5) The tenants of the transferring project who remain 
        eligible for assistance to be provided by the receiving project 
        or projects shall not be required to vacate their units in the 
        transferring project or projects until new units in the 
        receiving project are available for occupancy.
            (6) The Secretary determines that the transfer is in the 
        best interest of the tenants.
            (7) If either the transferring project or the receiving 
        project or projects meets the condition specified in subsection 
        (d)(2)(A), any lien on the receiving project resulting from 
        additional financing obtained by the owner shall be subordinate 
        to any FHA-insured mortgage lien transferred to, or placed on, 
        such project by the Secretary, except that the Secretary may 
        waive this requirement upon determination that such a waiver is 
        necessary to facilitate the financing of acquisition, 
        construction, and/or rehabilitation of the receiving project or 
        projects.
            (8) If the transferring project meets the requirements of 
        subsection (d)(2), the owner or mortgagor of the receiving 
        project or projects shall execute and record either a 
        continuation of the existing use agreement or a new use 
        agreement for the project, in either case, any use restrictions 
        in such agreement are of no lesser duration than the existing 
        use restrictions.
            (9) The transfer does not increase the cost (as defined in 
        section 502 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974(2 U.S.C. 
        661a)) of any FHA-insured mortgage, except to the extent that

        such increased cost.

programs that are attached to any dwelling units in the property. To 
the extent the Secretary determines, in consultation with the tenants 
and the local government that such a multifamily property owned or

based rental assistance payments with an owner or owners of other 
existing housing properties, or provide other rental assistance. The 
Secretary shall also take appropriate steps to ensure that project-
based contracts remain in effect prior to foreclosure, subject to the 
exercise of contractual abatement remedies to assist relocation of 
tenants for imminent major threats to health and safety after written 
notice to and informed consent of the affected tenants and use of other 
available remedies, such as partial abatements or receivership. After

contract and allowable rent levels on such properties shall be subject 
to the requirements under section 524 of MAHRAA.
    Sec. 213.  Public housing agencies that own and operate 400 or 
fewer public housing units may elect to be exempt from any asset 
management requirement imposed by the Secretary in connection with the 
operating fund rule:  Provided, That an agency seeking a discontinuance

the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g(d),(e)), the 
Secretary shall not impose any requirement or guideline relating to 
asset management that restricts or limits in any way the use of capital 
funds for central office costs pursuant to paragraph (1) or (2) of 
section 9(g) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 
1437g(g)(1), (2)):  Provided, That a public housing agency may not use 
capital funds authorized under section 9(d) for activities that are 
eligible under section 9(e) for assistance with amounts from the 
operating fund in excess of the amounts permitted under paragraph (1) 
or (2) of section 9(g).
    Sec. 215.  No official or employee of the Department of Housing and 
Urban Development shall be designated as an allotment holder unless the 
Office of the Chief Financial Officer has determined that such 
allotment holder has implemented an adequate system of funds control 
and has received training in funds control procedures and directives. 
The Chief Financial Officer shall ensure that there is a trained 
allotment holder for each HUD appropriation under the accounts 
``Executive Offices'', ``Administrative Support Offices'', ``Program 
Offices'', ``Government National Mortgage Association--Guarantees of 
Mortgage-Backed Securities Loan Guarantee Program Account'', and 
``Office of Inspector General'' within the Department of Housing and 
Urban Development.
    Sec. 216.  The Secretary shall, for fiscal year 2021, notify the 
public through the Federal Register and other means, as determined 
appropriate, of the issuance of a notice of the availability of 
assistance or notice of funding availability (NOFA) for any program or 
discretionary fund administered by the Secretary that is to be 
competitively awarded. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for 
fiscal year 2021, the Secretary may make the NOFA available only on the 
Internet at the appropriate Government web site or through other 
electronic media, as determined by the Secretary.
    Sec. 217.  Payment of attorney fees in program-related litigation 
shall be paid from the individual program office and Office of General 
Counsel salaries and expenses appropriations. The annual budget 
submission for the program offices and the Office of General Counsel 
shall include any such projected litigation costs for attorney fees as 
a separate line item request.
    Sec. 218. (a)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), the Secretary 
may transfer up to 10 percent or $5,000,000, whichever is less, of 
funds appropriated for any office under the headings ``Administrative 
Support Offices'' or ``Program Offices'' to any other such office under 
such heading: Provided, That no appropriation for any such office or 
account shall be increased or decreased by more than 10 percent or 
$5,000,000, whichever is less, without prior written approval of the 
House and Senate Committees on Appropriations: Provided further, That 
the Secretary shall provide notification to such Committees not less 
than 3 business days in advance of any such transfers under this 
section up to 10 percent or $5,000,000, whichever is less.
    (2) The authority under paragraph (1) to transfer funds shall not 
apply to the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity, the Office 
of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes, or the Office of Departmental 
Equal Employment Opportunity.
    (b) The Secretary is authorized to transfer up to 10 percent of 
funds appropriated for any office under the headings ``Administrative 
Support Offices'' or ``Program Offices'' to the Office of Fair Housing 
and Equal Opportunity, the Office of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy 
Homes, or the Office of Departmental Equal Employment Opportunity: 
Provided, That no amounts may be transferred pursuant to this 
subparagraph unless the Secretary shall provide notification to such 
Committees not less 3 business days in advance of any such transfers 
under this subsection.
    Sec. 219. (a) Any entity receiving housing assistance payments 
shall maintain decent, safe, and sanitary conditions, as determined by 
the Secretary, and comply with any standards under applicable State or 
local laws, rules, ordinances, or regulations relating to the physical 
condition of any property covered under a housing assistance payment 
contract.
    (b) The Secretary shall take action under subsection (c) when a 
multifamily housing project with a contract under section 8 of the 
United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f) or a contract for 
similar project-based assistance--
            (1) receives a Uniform Physical Condition Standards (UPCS)

Such requirements shall apply to insured and noninsured projects with 
assistance attached to the units under section 8 of the United States 
Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f), but shall not apply to such 
units assisted under section 8(o)(13) of such Act (42 U.S.C. 
1437f(o)(13)) or to public housing units assisted with capital or 
operating funds under section 9 of the United States Housing Act of 
1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g).
    (c)(1) Within 15 days of the issuance of the Real Estate Assessment 
Center (``REAC'') inspection, the Secretary shall provide the owner 
with a Notice of Default with a specified timetable, determined by the 
Secretary, for correcting all deficiencies. The Secretary shall provide 
a copy of the Notice of Default to the tenants, the local government, 
any mortgagees, and any contract administrator. If the owner's appeal 
results in a UPCS score of 60 or above, the Secretary may withdraw the 
Notice of Default.
    (2) At the end of the time period for correcting all deficiencies 
specified in the Notice of Default, if the owner fails to fully correct 
such deficiencies, the Secretary may--

        with a management agent approved by the Secretary;
            (B) impose civil money penalties, which shall be used 
        solely for the purpose of supporting safe and sanitary 
        conditions at applicable properties, as designated by the 
        Secretary, with priority given to the tenants of the property 
        affected by the penalty;

        available as deemed necessary and appropriate by the Secretary.

programs, based on consideration of--
            (1) the costs of rehabilitating and operating the property 
        and all available Federal, State, and local resources, 
        including rent adjustments under section 524 of the Multifamily 
        Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 1997

        Housing and Urban Development is taking to protect tenants of
