provision confirms that the section 8
tenant’s lease is, in effect, a bona fide
lease and that the HAP contract survives
the foreclosure, just as the lease does.
Similar to Section 702, the provisions of
Section 703 shall not affect any State or
local law that provides additional time
frames or protections for tenants.

B. Participants in HUD’s Section 8
Voucher Programs
BILLING CODE 4210–67–P
Immediate successor owners of
foreclosed properties in which section 8
voucher recipients reside become
participants in HUD’s Section 8(o)
tenant-based voucher programs and
must comply with Sections 702 and
703. The following requirements apply
to such foreclosed properties as long as
the immediate successor in interest
retains the interest and until the sunset
date of the PTFA, December 31, 2012.
• A demand upon the section 8
voucher recipient to vacate the property
prior to a sale of the property shall not
constitute ‘‘other good cause’’ as meant
in HUD’s regulations on termination of
tenancy (24 CFR 982.310), except that:
Æ The owner may terminate the
tenancy effective on the date of the
transfer to the owner if the owner:
fi Will occupy the unit as a primary
residence; and
fi Has provided the tenant with a
notice to vacate at least 90 days before
the effective date of such notice.
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
C. Public Housing Agencies (PHAs)
With respect to PHAs, a PHA, after
foreclosure, provides payments under
the HAP contract to the new owner for
the remaining term of the HAP contract,
subject to the exception for an owner
who will occupy the unit as a primary
residence. In the case of the owner/
occupant, the HAP contract would
continue for the required notice period.
The new owner also takes subject to the
existing lease, which can only be
terminated as described in this section.
The Office of Public and Indian
Housing will be providing additional
guidance as PHAs may need to help
ensure that the requirements of Section
703 are carried out where applicable.
IV. Additional Guidance
As noted earlier in this notice, HUD
will provide additional guidance as may
be necessary to help ensure that the
requirements of Sections 702 and 703.

Interior, or pursuant to delegated or
redelegated authority, the Commissioner
of Reclamation or one of the regional
directors. In some instances,
congressional review and approval of a
report, water rate, or other terms and
conditions of the contract may be
involved.

behalf of the contracting entities may
negotiate the terms and conditions of a
specific contract proposal.

Michigan. The consent decree settles
claims against a window manufacturing
and replacement corporation located
outside of Detroit, Michigan. The claims
were brought on behalf of the
Environmental Protection Agency (‘‘U.S.
EPA’’) under the Toxic Substances
Control Act, 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq., and
on behalf of the State of Michigan
Department of Community Health
(‘‘Michigan DCH’’) under the Michigan
Lead Abatement Act, 1998 Mich. Pub.
Acts 219 1 et seq., Mich. Comp. Laws
Ann. 333.5451 et seq. The Plaintiffs
allege in the complaint that the Settling
Defendant failed to make one or more of
the disclosures or to complete one or
more of the disclosure activities
required by Title IV, 406(b) of the Toxic
Substances Control Act.
Under the Consent Decree, the
Settling Defendant will pay a civil
penalty of $100,000 and will certify that
it is now in compliance and will
continue to comply with residential
lead based paint hazard notification
requirements. The Settling Defendant
will also perform two Supplemental
Environmental Projects (‘‘SEPs’’). For
one SEP the Settling Defendant will
provide $350,000 worth of windows to
the State of Michigan for installation in
housing built before 1978. For the other
SEP, the Settling Defendant will
voluntarily employ lead safe work
practices in advance of being subject to
Federal regulations which will become
effective in April of 2010 imposing
similar lead safe work practices
requirements on all renovators of pre1978 properties.
The Department of Justice will receive
for a period of thirty (30) days from the
date of this publication comments
relating to the Proposed Consent Decree.
Comments should be addressed to the
