(the Act) establishes the MHCC. Among other things, the MHCC is responsible for providing periodic recommendations to HUD to adopt, revise, and interpret the manufactured housing construction and safety standards. HUD’s Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards are codified at 24 CFR part 3280. According to Section 604(a)(4) of the Act, the MHCC is required to consider revisions not less than once during each 2-year period. Today’s notice requests that interested persons provide proposed changes for revising or updating HUD’s Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards. Consistent with the Act, recommendations are requested that further HUD’s efforts to increase the quality, durability, safety and affordability of manufactured homes; facilitate the availability of affordable manufactured homes and increase homeownership for all Americans; and encourage cost-effective and innovative construction techniques for manufactured homes. To permit the MHCC to fully consider the proposed changes, commenters are encouraged to provide at least the following information: • The specific section of the current Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards that require revision or update; or whether the recommendation would require a new standard; • Specific detail regarding the recommendation including a statement VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:33 Dec 09, 2015 Jkt 238001 of the problem intended to be corrected or addressed by the recommendation, how the recommendation would resolve or address the problem, and the basis of the recommendation; and • Information regarding whether the recommendation would result in increased costs to manufacturers or consumers and the value of the benefits derived from HUD’s implementation of the recommendation, should be provided and discussed to the extent feasible. The Act requires that an administering organization administer the process for the MHCC’s development and interpretation of the Federal Standards and Procedural and Enforcement Regulations. The administering organization that has been selected by HUD to administer this process is Home Innovation Research Labs, Inc. This Notice requests that proposed revisions to the Federal standards be submitted to the MHCC for consideration through the administering organization, Home Innovation Research Labs, Inc. at the following URL address: mhcc.homeinnovation.com.

historic places (buildings, sites, structures, objects, or districts) 
designated by the Secretary of the Interior, because they possess 
exceptional value or quality in illustrating or interpreting the 
heritage of the United States. Today, just over 2,500 historic places

distinction. All NHLs are also listed in the National Register of 
Historic Places.
    The Historic Sites Act of 1935 (16 U.S.C. 461-467) directs the 
Secretary of the Interior (Secretary), through the National Park 
Service, to survey historic and archeological sites, buildings, and 
objects to determine those that possess exceptional value in 
commemorating or illustrating the history of the United States. 
Designation as an NHL:
     Ensures that stories of nationally important historic 
events, places, or persons are recognized and preserved for the benefit 
of all citizens.
     May provide the property's historic character with a 
measure of protection against any project initiated by the Federal 
Government.
     May ensure eligibility for grants, tax credits, and other 
opportunities to maintain a property's historic character.
    In accordance with the law and 36 CFR part 65, private citizens,

Indian tribes may submit nominations for NHL designation. Instructions 
for submitting a letter of inquiry and completing NPS Form 10-934 are 
available on the NHL Web site at https://www.nps.gov/nhl/index.htm. We 
collect the following information:

Letter of Inquiry

    Prior to nominating a property for NHL designation, respondents 
must send a letter of inquiry to the NPS. The letter introduces the 
property to the NHL Program staff and serves as a formal, written 
record of initiating the NHL designation process. It provides an 
overview of the property, its historic significance, and its historic 
integrity, including, but not limited to:
     Historic importance of the property. What nationally 
significant story does the property tell?
     Current condition and integrity of the property. Has the 
property undergone major alterations since the historic period? If so, 
how extensive are these alterations?
     Support of the property owner. Is the property already 
listed in the National Register of Historic Places?
     Supporting documents, such as photographs or brochures.

National Historic Landmark Nomination (NPS Form 10-934)

     Name and Location of Property.
     Significance Data (NHL criteria, criteria exceptions, NHL 
themes, period(s) of significance, significant person(s), cultural 
affiliation, historic contexts, designer/creator/architect/builder, 
etc.).
     Sensitive Information (resources, such as archeological 
sites, that would be adversely affected by amateur excavation or 
vandalism by the general public if the location were disclosed).
     Geographical Data (acreage, Universal Transverse Mercator 
(UTM) grid references or latitude/longitude coordinates, and boundaries 
for the property).
     Significance Statement and Discussion (narrative statement 
based on documentary research of the property and the specific 
assessment of how the property qualifies for designation as an NHL).
     Property Description and Statement of Integrity 
(classifies the property by ownership of the property, type of 
property, and the number and nature of resources comprising the 
property).
     Major Bibliographic References (sources from which the 
documentation given on the form was compiled and the assessment of the 
property's significance was made).
     Contact Information for Form Preparer.
    We review the forms to evaluate the eligibility of the property 
being nominated and submit them to the Secretary of the Interior's 
National Park System Advisory Board. The Board recommends those 
properties that meet the criteria for NHL designation to the Secretary 
of the Interior. The Secretary decides whether or not to designate a 
property as an NHL.
