program for states in which HUD will
administer the installation program. As
a result, there are several states in which
there is not yet either a state-certified
and fully accepted installation program
or an operational HUD-administered
installation program.
HUD has determined that, in order to
protect against undue financial risk, a
manufactured home that is installed in
accordance with the Model Installation
Standards (rather than erected on a
permanent foundation) should not be
permitted to be the security for FHA
Title I-insured loans or Title II-insured
mortgages, until there is operating in the
state where the manufactured home is
located either a state-certified and fully
accepted installation program or a HUDadministered installation program. (This
determination does not affect the
eligibility of manufactured homes to be
the security for Title I-insured loans if
the manufacturer’s installation
requirements provide for compliance
with the Model Installation Standards
and the manufactured home is in fact
installed with the Model Installation
Standards.) An operational and fully
compliant installation program is
critical to ensure that a manufactured
home that is to be the security for a Title
I-insured loan or Title II-insured
mortgage is in fact installed in
accordance with the Model Installation
Standards.
As a result, HUD submits that it
would not be appropriate to promulgate
a final rule based on the September 15,
2008 proposed rule, which assumed
fully compliant installation programs
would be operational in all states and
territories, that does not take into
consideration the implementation issues
that have resulted from the June 2008
final rule. HUD submits for
consideration and public comment that
it would be appropriate for
manufactured homes in a state with an
operational state-certified and fully
accepted installation program, or HUDadministered installation program, to be
eligible for Title I and Title II insurance,
even while review, full acceptance, or
implementation of installation programs
in other states and territories still is
pending.
Accordingly, HUD is soliciting public
comment on whether HUD should: (a)
Promulgate a final rule based on the
September 15, 2008 proposed rule, but
that is applicable to a state only at such
time that the state has an operational
state-certified and fully accepted
installation program or a HUDadministered installation program; or (b)
delay promulgation of a final rule based
on the September 15, 2008 proposed
rule until all states and territories have

accepted installation program or a HUDadministered installation program.

proposed rule and confirm the effective
date of the direct-final rule if it received
no significant adverse comments on the
direct final rule by September 10, 2009.
OSHA received eight comments on the
direct-final rule by that date, which it
determined were not significant adverse
comments. OSHA subsequently
published a notice announcing this
determination and confirming the
effective date of the direct-final rule as
November 9, 2009 (74 FR 57883).
Accordingly, OSHA is not proceeding
with the proposed rule and is
withdrawing it from the rulemaking
process.
