SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As
described in the Summary section of
this notice, on August 4, 2011 (76 FR
47224), the Secretary delegated
authority for the administration of PIH
programs to the Assistant Secretary for
PIH and the General DAS for PIH. In a

officials redelegated certain aspects of
their authority to Regional Public
Housing Directors. Included in the
redelegated authority to the Regional
Public Housing Directors was
concurrent approval authority for
energy performance contracts (EPC). In
today’s redelegation of authority, the
Assistant Secretary for PIH redelegates

Regional Public Housing Directors and
the PIH Field Office Directors to
approve mortgage or security interests,

Section A. Authority Redelegated
Authority is hereby redelegated by the
Assistant Secretary, through the General
Deputy Assistant Secretary for PIH, to
Regional Public Housing Directors and
Public Housing Field Office Directors
for reviews and approvals of EPCs that
may include approvals of security
interests under section 30 of the United
States Housing Act of 1937, (1937 Act),
as amended, (42 U.S.C. 1437z-2). The
Quality Housing and Work
Responsibility Act of 1998 (QHWRA)
(Pub. L. 105–276, October 21, 1998)
added section 30 to the 1937 Act.
Pursuant to section 30 and subject to
HUD approval, a PHA may mortgage or
grant a security interest in any public
housing project or other property of the
PHA (e.g., its public housing real

conservation improvements) and may
mortgage or otherwise encumber such
property covered by the 1937 Act that
it owns.

authority of section 9(e) of the 1937 Act.
If an EPC proposal also requires a
section 30 approval, the Regional Public
Housing Director or Public Housing
Field Office Director shall review the
section 30 request along with the EPC
proposal review. For mixed finance
projects with EPCs requiring section 30
approval, the review and approval is
part of the mixed finance evidentiary
process and involves Declarations of
Restrictive Covenants (DORCs). The
imposition of a mortgage or security
interest requires a legal opinion from
the Office of General Counsel that the
mortgage or security interest does not
supersede or encumber the Declaration
of Trust or DORCs as applicable.
Section B. Excepted Authority That

Secretary, or Deputy Assistant
Secretaries

Section A. Authority Redelegated
Authority is hereby redelegated by the Assistant Secretary, through
the General Deputy Assistant Secretary for PIH, to Regional Public
Housing Directors and Public Housing Field Office Directors for reviews
and approvals of EPCs that may include approvals of security interests
under section 30 of the United States Housing Act of 1937, (1937 Act),

Responsibility Act of 1998 (QHWRA) (Pub. L. 105-276, October 21, 1998)
added section 30 to the 1937 Act. Pursuant to section 30 and subject to

Act. If an EPC proposal also requires a section 30 approval, the
Regional Public Housing Director or Public Housing Field Office
Director shall review the section 30 request along with the EPC
proposal review. For mixed finance projects with EPCs requiring section
30 approval, the review and approval is part of the mixed finance

legal opinion from the Office of General Counsel that the mortgage or
security interest does not supersede or encumber the Declaration of
Trust or DORCs as applicable.
