SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
November 18, 2011 (76 FR 71474), HUD
published a proposed rule to revise the
regulations governing the IHBG and
Title VI Loan Guarantee programs,
codified in 24 CFR part 1000. HUD’s
proposed rule would implement
statutory amendments to the Native
American Housing Assistance and SelfDetermination Act of 1996 (25 U.S.C.
4101 et seq.) (NAHASDA) enacted by
the Native American Housing
Assistance and Self-Determination
Reauthorization Act of 2008 (Pub. L.
110–411, approved October 14, 2008).
Specifically, HUD’s proposed rule
would amend subpart A of 24 CFR part
1000 regarding the guiding principles of
NAHASDA, definitions, labor standards,
environmental review procedures,
procurement, tribal and Indian
preference, and program income.
Proposed changes to subpart B of 24
CFR part 1000 would address eligible
families, useful life of properties, and
criminal conviction records. Proposed
changes to subpart C of 24 CFR part
1000 would address the tribal program
year, Indian Housing Plan (IHP)
requirements, administrative and
planning expenses, reserve accounts,
local cooperation agreements, and
exemption from taxation. Proposed
changes to subpart D of part 24 would
address certain formula information that
must be included in the IHP and Annual
Performance Report (APR), as well as
the date by which HUD must provide
data used for the formula and projected
allocation to a tribe or Tribally
Designated Housing Entity. Proposed
changes to subpart E of 24 CFR part
1000 would address financing
guarantees. Finally, proposed changes to
subpart F of 24 CFR part 1000 would
address HUD monitoring, APRs, APR
review, HUD performance measures,
recipient comments on HUD reports,
remedial actions in the event of
substantial noncompliance, audits,
submission of audit reports, and records

retention. Additional explanation of
HUD’s proposed regulatory revisions are
provided in the preamble to the
November 18, 2011, proposed rule. The
public comment period on the proposed
rule closed on January 17, 2012.
As required by section 106 of
NAHASDA, as amended, HUD
negotiated the November 18, 2011,
proposed rule with active tribal
participation under the procedures of
the Negotiated Rulemaking Act of 1990
(5 U.S.C. 561–570). HUD’s proposed
rule reflects the consensus decisions
reached by HUD and the tribal
representatives.
This notice announces a two-day
session of the negotiated rulemaking
committee that developed the November
18, 2011, proposed rule. The purpose of
the two-day session is to provide the
negotiated rulemaking committee
members the opportunity to review and
consider responses to the public
comments received on the November
18, 2011, proposed rule.
The two-day session will take place as
described in the DATES and ADDRESSES
section of this document. The two-day
session will be open to the public;
however, public attendance may be
limited to the space available. Members
of the public may be allowed to make
statements during the meeting to the
extent time permits.

The device represents a human torso
and pelvis. The new device comes in
two sizes, one representative of a midsize adult male, and the other of a small
occupant. We propose both sizes be
used in FMVSS No. 210. We believe that
the devices provide a consistent test
configuration and load path to the seat
belt assembly anchorages. We are
proposing this amendment because the
devices are significantly easier to use
than the current body blocks.

I. FMVSS No. 210
FMVSS No. 210, ‘‘Seat belt assembly
anchorages,’’ applies to passenger cars,
multipurpose passenger vehicles
(MPVs), trucks, and buses. The standard
establishes requirements for seat belt
assembly anchorages to ensure the
anchorages are properly located for
effective occupant restraint and to
reduce the likelihood of their failure. As
to the latter, the standard requires seat
belt anchorages to withstand specified
forces to increase the likelihood that the
belts will remain attached to the vehicle
structure in a crash. Under the standard,
seat belt anchorage assemblies for lap/
shoulder belts must withstand a 13,345
Newton (N) (3,000 pounds (lb)) force
applied to the lap belt portion of the
seat belt assembly simultaneously with
a 13,345 N force applied to the shoulder
belt portion of the seat belt assembly.
The anchorage assemblies must
withstand the force as it is increased
over thirty seconds, and withstand that
force as it is held for 10 seconds.1 These
forces are applied to the shoulder
portion of the belt (for a lap/shoulder
belt) by an upper torso body block
(Figure 3 in FMVSS No. 210) and the
lap belt portion of the belt by a pelvic
body block 2 (Figures 2A and 2B in
1 For lap belt only anchorages, the seat belt
anchorage must withstand force as it is increased
to 22,241 N (5,000 pounds) over thirty seconds and
withstand that force as it is held for 10 seconds.
2 The particular pelvic body block used depends
on the type of seat. Typically the body block in
