SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 20, 2006 (71 FR 3382), HUD published its FY2006 General Section to the SuperNOFA for HUD’s Discretionary Programs. Early publication of the General Section was intended to provide prospective applicants with additional time to become familiar with and address those provisions in the General Section that constitute part of almost every application.

The FY2006 SuperNOFA announced the availability of approximately $2.2 billion in HUD assistance. This notice published in today’s Federal Register announces one change that may affect applicants that have not completed their CCR registration. As this change was recently implemented by CCR, HUD is extending the deadline date for the Resident Opportunity and Self-Sufficiency (ROSS) Family-Homeownership NOFA. The due date for this program has been extended 30 days the ROSS FamilyHomeownership applications are due on September 8, 2006. HUD is extending the due date because of a governmentwide policy change that is being implemented by CCR.

Once implemented, CCR registrants will not be able to enter or modify these fields in CCR because they will be pre-populated using D&B Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) record data. During a new registration or when updating a record, the registrant will have a choice to accept or reject the information provided from D&B. Under this revised system, if the CCR registrant agrees with the D&B supplied information, the D&B data will be accepted into the CCR registrant record. If the CCR registrant disagrees with the D&B supplied information, the registrant will need to go to the D&B Web site https://fedgov.dnb.com/ webform to modify the information contained in the D&B record before proceeding with its CCR registration. When D&B confirms the modification has been made, the registrant must then revisit the Web site, www.ccr.gov and ‘‘accept’’ D&B’s changes. Once accepted, the D&B data will be entered into the CCR record. CCR advises that it may take up to two business days for D&B to send the modified data to CCR and that timeframe may be longer in some cases. Registrants may contact D&B Government Helpdesk at: govt@dnb.com. For additional information about the CCR policy change, see the ‘‘frequently asked questions at https://www.ccr.gov/ newsdetail.asp?id=55&type=N or the CCR Assistance Center Web site at https://www.dlis.dla.mil/cust.asp.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 20, 2006 (71 FR 3382), HUD 
published its FY2006 General Section to the SuperNOFA for HUD's 
Discretionary Programs. Early publication of the General Section was 
intended to provide prospective applicants with additional time to 
become familiar with and address those provisions in the General 
Section that constitute part of almost every application. On March 8, 
2006 (71 FR 11712), HUD published its Notice of HUD's Fiscal Year (FY) 
2006, SuperNOFA for HUD's Discretionary Grant Programs. The FY2006 
SuperNOFA announced the availability of approximately $2.2 billion in 
HUD assistance. This notice published in today's Federal Register 
announces one change that may affect applicants that have not completed 
their CCR registration. As this change was recently implemented by CCR, 
HUD is extending the deadline date for the Resident Opportunity and 
Self-Sufficiency (ROSS) Family-Homeownership NOFA. The due date for 
this program has been extended 30 days the ROSS Family-Homeownership 
applications are due on September 8, 2006.
    HUD is extending the due date because of a governmentwide policy 
change that is being implemented by CCR. Effective August 1, 2006, 
instead of obtaining name and address information directly from the 
registrant, CCR will obtain the following data fields from Dun and 
Bradstreet (D&B): Legal Business Name; Doing Business Name (DBA); 
Physical Address; Postal Code/ZIP+4. Once implemented, CCR registrants 
will not be able to enter or modify these fields in CCR because they 
will be pre-populated using D&B Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) 
record data. During a new registration or when updating a record, the 
registrant will have a choice to accept or reject the information 
provided from D&B.
    Under this revised system, if the CCR registrant agrees with the 
D&B supplied information, the D&B data will be accepted into the CCR 
registrant record. If the CCR registrant disagrees with the D&B 
supplied information, the registrant will need to go to the D&B Web 
site https://fedgov.dnb.com/webform to modify the information contained 
in the D&B record before proceeding with its CCR registration. When D&B 
confirms the modification has been made, the registrant must then 
revisit the Web site, www.ccr.gov and ``accept'' D&B's changes. Once 
accepted, the D&B data will be entered into the CCR record. CCR advises 
that it may take up to two business days for D&B to send the modified 
data to CCR and that timeframe may be longer in some cases. Registrants 
may contact D&B Government Helpdesk at: govt@dnb.com. For additional 
information about the CCR policy change, see the ``frequently asked 
questions at https://www.ccr.gov/newsdetail.asp?id=55&type=N or the CCR
