The Department of Homeland

(November 25, 2002), and the Security
and Accountability for Every Port Act of

secure areas of a regulated facility or

terminate.
This notice provides the start date for
TWIC initial enrollment at the Port of

separate notice in the Federal Register
indicating when facilities within the
Captain of the Port Zone Corpus Christi,
including those in the Port of Corpus

to be used as an access control measure.
That notice will be published at least 90
days before compliance is required.

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.

homeless use for a period of 60 days

interest as soon as possible. For
complete details concerning the
processing of applications, the reader is

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.

declared excess or made available for
use to assist the homeless, and the
property will not be available.

Notice. Homeless assistance providers
