Regulatory and Administrative Waivers Granted for Public and Indian Housing Programs To Assist With Recovery and Relief in Superstorm Sandy Disaster Areas

Streszczenie

This notice advises the public of HUD regulations and other administrative requirements governing HUD's Office of Public and Indian Housing (PIH) programs that have been waived in order to facilitate the delivery of decent, safe, and sanitary housing under these programs to families and individuals who have been displaced from their housing by Superstorm Sandy. Entities that administer PIH programs, which include public housing agencies (PHAs), Indian and tribally designated housing entities (TDHEs), and local and tribal governments, and are located in an area declared by the President to be a federal disaster area as a result of Superstorm Sandy, may defer compliance with the regulations and other requirements listed in this notice for an initial period of 12 months or such other period as may be specified in this notice, and must provide notice to HUD of their decision to do so as described in Section II.A. below. PIH program administrations not located within a federal disaster area but assisting with Superstorm Sandy recovery and relief may request to defer compliance with these regulations and other requirements for the same period of time through the expedited waiver process
