Unified Agenda
24 CFR Subtitles A and B
[Docket No. FR-4664-N-02]
AGENCY:
Department of Housing and Urban Development.
ACTION:
Semiannual regulatory agenda.
SUMMARY:
In accordance with section 4(b) of Executive Order 12866, "Regulatory Planning and Review," HUD is publishing its agenda of (1) regulations already issued or that are expected to be issued over the next several months, and (2) currently effective rules that are under review. The agenda also describes regulations that may affect small entities as required by section 602 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The purpose of publication of the agenda is to encourage more effective public participation in the regulatory process by providing the public with early information about pending regulatory activities.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Aaron Santa Anna, Assistant General Counsel for Regulations, Department of Housing and Urban Development, Room 10276, 451 Seventh Street SW., Washington, DC 20410, (202) 708-3055.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Executive Order 12866, "Regulatory Planning and Review," published on October 4, 1993 (58 FR 51735), requires each agency to publish semiannually an agenda of (1) regulations that the agency has issued or expects to issue, and (2) currently effective regulations that are under agency review. The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612) requires each agency to publish semiannually a regulatory agenda of rules expected to be proposed or promulgated that are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of "small entities," meaning small businesses, small organizations, or small governmental jurisdictions.
Executive Order 12866 and the Regulatory Flexibility Act each permit incorporation of the agenda required by these two authorities with any other prescribed agenda. Therefore, the agenda set out below combines the information required by Executive Order 12866 and the Regulatory Flexibility Act. In addition, the agenda contains certain information not required by either the Executive Order or by the Regulatory Flexibility Act which the Department considers useful, both better to inform the public and to enhance the Department's own inventory control over its body of regulations.
Section 610(c) of the Regulatory Flexibility Act requires each agency to publish annually a list of the rules that have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, and that are to be reviewed in accordance with the requirements of section 610 during the succeeding 12 months. Existing regulations that HUD proposes to amend by rules described and published in this agenda are reviewed in accordance with the principles of section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The purpose of the review is to determine whether the rule should be continued without change, amended or rescinded. Proposed changes to existing regulations provide the opportunity for the Department to conduct a section 610 review.
The Department also is subject to certain rulemaking requirements set forth in the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act (42 U.S.C. 3531 et seq.). Section 7(o) of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act (42 U.S.C. 3535(o)) requires that the Secretary transmit to the congressional committees having jurisdictional oversight of HUD (the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs and the House Committee on Banking and Financial Services) a semiannual agenda of all rules or regulations which are under development or review by the Department. A rule appearing on the agenda cannot be published for comment before or during the first 15 calendar days after transmittal of the agenda. Section 7(o) provides that if, within that period, either committee notifies the Secretary that it intends to review any rule or regulation which appears on the agenda, the Secretary must submit to both committees a copy of the rule or regulation, in the form it is intended to be proposed, at least 15 calendar days before it is published for comment. The semiannual agenda published today is the agenda transmitted to the committees in compliance with this requirement.
In addition to the authorities described above that affect HUD's regulatory process, this semiannual agenda, continues to reflect the regulatory review required by President Bush. On January 20, 2001, White House Chief of Staff Andrew H. Card, Jr. issued a memorandum entitled "Regulatory Review Plan" to all Federal departments and agencies, which sets out certain procedures that ensure that the new administration has the opportunity to review any new or pending regulations.
Consistent with the direction of the January 20, 2001 memorandum, HUD is continuing to review regulations that were begun under the previous Administration. In some cases, HUD has withdrawn rules that were placed on previous agendas and for which there has been no publication activity. Withdrawal of a rule does not necessarily mean that HUD will not proceed with the rulemaking. Withdrawal allows the new HUD Administration to further assess the subject matter and determine whether rulemaking for this subject matter is appropriate. Following this review, the Department may determine that certain rules listed as withdrawn under this agenda are appropriate. If that determination is made, the rules will be included in a succeeding semiannual agenda.
Additionally, for a few rules that have been published as a proposed or interim rule, and therefore require further rulemaking, HUD has identified the timing of the next action stage as "undetermined." These are rules that are still under review by the new HUD Administration and for which a determination of the next action stage and timing of the next action stage has not yet been made.
HUD has attempted to list in this agenda all regulations and regulatory reviews pending at the time of publication, except for minor and routine or repetitive actions, but some may have been inadvertently omitted, or may have arisen too late to be included in the published agenda. There is no legal significance to the omission of an item from the agenda. Also, where dates are provided for the next rulemaking actions, the dates are estimates and are not commitments to act on or by the date shown.
The format of the agenda remains unchanged from previous years. HUD's agenda items are divided first by program office. Within each program office, the agenda items are divided into five groups: (i) pre-rulemaking actions, (ii) publication or other implementations of notices of proposed rulemaking, (iii) publication or other implementations of final rules, (iv) long-term actions, and (v) completed actions. Within each grouping, rules are listed in chronological order by the part number of the CFR affected. Where a rule affects multiple parts of the CFR, the rule is listed by the first affected part number.
For this edition of the Department's regulatory agenda, the most important significant regulatory actions are included in The Regulatory Plan, which appears in part II of this issue of the Federal Register. The Regulatory Plan entries are listed in the table of contents below and are denoted by a bracketed bold reference, which directs the reader to the appropriate sequence number in part II.
Since the purpose of publication of the agenda is to encourage more effective public participation in the regulatory process by providing the public with early information about the Department's future regulatory actions, HUD invites all interested members of the public to comment on the rules listed in the agenda.

Abstract:
This rule proposes substantive changes and amendments to the governmentwide nonprocurement common rule for debarment and suspension and the governmentwide rule implementing the Drug Free Workplace Act of 1988. This rule is part of a common rule on debarment and suspension that would limit the mandatory lower tier application of an exclusion to the first procurement level under a nonprocurement covered transaction. Also, the proposed common rule on debarment and suspension would set the dollar threshold on prohibited lower-tier procurement transactions with excluded persons at $25,000.

Abstract:
This rule would implement section 601(f) of the fiscal year 1999 HUD Appropriations Act (Pub. L. 105-276, approved October 21, 1998). Section 601(f) amends the National Housing Act, which establishes the basic framework for HUD's single family mortgage insurance programs. Specifically, section 601(f) amends section 230 of the National Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 1715u) (entitled Authority to Assist Mortgagors in Default) to provide that, upon default of an insured single family mortgage, lenders must engage in loss mitigation activities for the purpose of providing an alternative to foreclosure. Further, section 601(f) amends section 536 of the National Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1735f-14) (entitled Civil Money Penalties Against Mortgagees, Lenders, and Other Participants in FHA Programs) to provide for the imposition of treble civil money penalties on lenders that fail to engage in loss mitigation activities, as required under amended section 230.

Abstract:
The U.S. Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (Access Board), of which HUD is a voting member, is revising and updating its accessibility guidelines for buildings and facilities covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA). The guidelines cover new construction and alterations and serve as the basis for enforceable standards issued by other Federal agencies, including HUD. HUD, as one of the four standard setting agencies, must adopt standards that are equivalent to or stricter than those guidelines issued by the Access Board. Thus, HUD must both update its regulations for the ABA at 24 CFR 40 and 41, but must also update/replace its Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS) with standards equivalent to or stricter than the Access Board's guidelines.

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI), section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1972 (Section 504), and the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (Age Discrimination Act) prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, disability, and age in programs or activities that receive Federal financial assistance. In 1988, the Civil Rights Restoration Act (CRRA) added definitions of "program or activity" and "program" to Title VI, and it added a definition of "program or activity" to Section 504 and the Age Discrimination Act. The promulgation of this rule incorporates the CRRA's definition of "program or activity" and "program" into title VI, section 504, and Age Discrimination Act regulations.

This rule updates and clarifies HUD's annual income requirements for its public housing and Section 8 assistance programs. Specifically, this rule clarifies that annual income includes payments under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, but only to the extent such payments qualify as "assistance" under the TANF program regulations issued by the Department of Health and Human Services and are not otherwise excluded under HUD's regulation. The clarifications will make the annual income requirements easier to understand for both program participants and public housing agencies. These changes will also ensure greater conformity between HUD's annual income requirements and the TANF program regulations. The final rule follows publication of an April 20, 2001 proposed rule, and takes into consideration the public comments received on the proposed rule.

Abstract:
The Multifamily Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 (Title V of the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1998; Pub. L. 105-65, approved October 27, 1997) (the Act) made several amendments to strengthen HUD's enforcement authority. This rule addresses those amendments that require rulemaking for implementation, as follows. The Act expands the list of persons and types of violations subject to a civil money penalty under HUD's multifamily insured housing programs. The Act also amends the United States Housing Act of 1937 (the statutory authority for HUD's public and assisted housing programs) to provide for the imposition of civil money penalties for noncompliance with Section 8 Housing Assistance Payment contracts. In accordance with the Act, HUD is implementing these statutory amendments through issuance of this rule. The rule would incorporate these amendments in HUD's civil money penalty regulations located at 24 CFR part 30.

The new FMR policy targets relief to areas where higher FMRs are needed to help families, assisted under HUD's Housing Choice Voucher Program as well as other HUD programs, find and lease decent and affordable housing. The new FMR policy increases FMRs needed to promote residential choice, help families move closer to areas of job growth, and deconcentrate poverty. The increased FMR applies to all the HUD programs that use FMRs in that metropolitan area.

Abstract:
A report issued in June 2000 by HUD and the Department of Treasury entitled "Curbing Predatory Home Mortgage Lending" noted that by providing a source of funding, entities that purchase or securitize loans with high cost and/or predatory features are, knowingly or unknowingly, supporting the activities of predatory loan originators. The report recommended regulatory restrictions that would prohibit the two Government-Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs), Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, from purchasing certain types of loans with high costs and/or predatory features altogether. Through this rulemaking, HUD will establish regulatory restrictions, consistent with the GSEs' voluntary restrictions, that will prohibit the GSEs from purchasing certain loans with high costs and/or predatory features.

Abstract:
This notice announces HUD's proposal to establish the Accelerated Claim Disposition (ACD) Demonstration and solicits public comment on this proposal. The Demonstration would implement amendments made by section 601 of the fiscal year 1999 Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act to section 204 of the National Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1710). These changes are designed to increase the effectiveness of the methods used by HUD to pay insurance claims and disposing of HUD-acquired single family notes and their underlying properties. Under the ACD Demonstration, HUD would pay accelerated claims on certain defaulted FHA-insured mortgages. HUD, in its sole discretion, will use one of two disposition methodologies: joint venture partnership and/or special servicing with whole loan or securitization. HUD will select approximately five to nine mortgagees to participate in the ACD Demonstration. The demonstration will have an initial duration of three years and will initially be limited to mortgage loans secured by properties located within the jurisdiction of HUD's Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Home Ownership Center (HOC). At the conclusion of the demonstration, HUD will assess its success and determine whether to implement the ACD process, on a permanent basis, throughout the country.

Abstract:
This rule establishes regulatory placement and removal procedures for HUD's Nonprofit Organization Roster. The Roster lists nonprofit organizations that HUD has determined are qualified to participate in certain specified Federal Housing Administration (FHA) single family activities. These activities may include acting as a mortgagor; purchasing HUD's Real Estate Owned Properties (HUD Homes) at a discount; providing secondary financing; and imposing legal restrictions on conveyance as part of affordable housing programs. Presently, there are no regulatory procedures for placing a nonprofit organization on, nor for removing a poorly performing nonprofit organization from, the Roster. The establishment of these placement and removal procedures will better protect participants in the FHA single family programs and safeguard FHA insurance funds. This rule follows publication of a September 17, 2001 proposed rule, and takes into consideration the public comments received on the proposed rule.

This rule would make several amendments to HUD's regulations for the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) Credit Watch/Termination Initiative. Under the Credit Watch/Termination Initiative, HUD identifies mortgagees with unsatisfactory performance levels and takes ameliorative action at an early stage. The proposed rule would provide that HUD will no longer provide mortgagees with written notification of Credit Watch status. Rather, mortgagees will be responsible for using HUD's Electronic Neighborhood Watch System to monitor their performance. Among other changes, the rule would also prohibit a mortgagee that has received a notice of proposed termination of its origination approval agreement from establishing a new branch for the origination of FHA-insured mortgages in the lending area covered by the proposed termination. The rule also would establish that the default and claim thresholds underlying the Credit Watch/Termination Initiative apply to both underwriting and originating mortgagees.

Abstract:
This rule establishes placement and removal procedures for HUD's list of qualified consultants under the Section 203(k) Rehabilitation Loan Insurance program. The 203(k) Program is HUD's primary program for the rehabilitation and repair of single family properties. A 203(k) lender may select a qualified independent consultant, who is an expert in the field of home inspection and construction, to perform various tasks required for the rehabilitation of the property. Presently, there are no regulatory procedures for placing a consultant on, nor for removing a poorly performing consultant from, the list. The establishment of these placement and removal procedures will better protect 203(k) borrowers and lenders and safeguard Federal Housing Administration (FHA) insurance funds.

This rule will extend the protection of tenant organization to include State-financed developments assisted under certain HUD programs.
This rule also makes a minor technical correction to a citation in the existing tenant participation regulation. Section 245.135(a)(3) of the rule intended to cross-reference 24 CFR part 24, subpart G; the CFR part was omitted.

Section 602 directs HUD to carry out a program under which HUD-owned homes and mortgages are made available in a manner that promotes expanded homeownership opportunities in designated revitalization areas. Under section 602, the Secretary will designate revitalization areas, in consultation with affected units of general local government and interested nonprofit organizations. Section 602 provides that the Secretary shall provide a preference in the sale of HUD-owned homes and mortgages to nonprofit organizations or to the unit of general local government having jurisdiction in the revitalization area.

Abstract:
This rule would make final the interim rule that implemented the Lender Insurance program, which reflects the Secretary's new authority to delegate the issuance of Mortgage Insurance Certificates (MICs) to mortgagees that are approved under the Direct Endorsement program. This rule provides that eligible mortgagees that participate in the Lender Insurance program will be responsible for conducting a pre-endorsement review during the origination of their single family mortgage loans and they will be responsible for endorsing the mortgages for insurance. HUD intends that delegating this insurance authority through the Lender program will be consistent with HUD's efforts to reinvent the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) by creating a more efficient and less burdensome process for providing single family mortgage insurance.

The HECM Program enables older homeowners to withdraw some of the equity in their homes in the form of payments for life, a fixed term, or at intervals through a line of credit. Section 201(a) authorizes HUD to offer mortgage insurance for refinancing of existing HECMs, and provides consumer safeguards for such refinancings. This rule follows publication of a June 5, 2001 proposed rule, and takes into consideration the public comments received on the proposed rule.

Abstract:
This rule amends the regulations for HUD's multifamily mortgage insurance programs by revising 24 CFR part 207 to permit the Secretary to set mortgage insurance premiums (MIPs) at any rate within his statutory authority, rather than setting specific MIP rates by regulation. Under this rule, HUD will be able to set mortgage insurance premiums at any rate between one-fourth and one percent of the outstanding principal balance of the insured loan. For several insured housing programs, this underwriting change will eliminate the need for positive credit subsidy. Promulgation of this rule will allow HUD to avoid a shutdown of these mortgage insurance programs.
