[Docket No. FR–5922–N–01]
Alternative Requirements for the
Family Unification Program (FUP)
Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Public and Indian
Housing, HUD.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Consolidated and Further
Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015,
authorizes the Secretary to carry out a
demonstration testing the effectiveness
of combining vouchers for homeless
youth under Family Unification
Program authorized under section 8(x)
of the United States Housing Act of
1937 (‘‘the Act’’) with assistance under
the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS)
program authorized under section 23 of
the Act. The Secretary was authorized to
establish alternative requirements to
those contained in section 8(x) of the
Act to facilitate the demonstration. This
notice provides an alternative
requirement to facilitate the operation of
this demonstration. Specifically, this
notice extends the 18-month time limit
to match the length of the FSS contract,
typically five years. Implementation of
this demonstration will be through a
notice issued by the Office of Public and
Indian Housing.
DATES: Effective date: January 25, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The comprehensive document titled
‘‘Opening Doors: Federal Strategic Plan
to Prevent and End Homelessness’’ sets
the goal of ending homelessness for
youth (along with families and children)
by the year 2020. FUP is a vital tool in
achieving this goal.
In a HUD study of the FUP program,
a major barrier to greater youth
participation was the time limit on the
rental subsidy.1 PHAs and public child
welfare agencies (PCWAs) suggested the
18-month time limit is too short, noting
that landlords generally prefer annual
leases with full 12-month renewals. The
limited time causes high turnover rates
demanding greater staff resources and
creating greater administrative costs.
The 18-month restriction does not align
with a standard academic term for youth
enrolled in an education program.
Finally, youth simply need more time to
become self-sufficient and transition to
independent living.
Implementation of this demonstration
requires will be through a notice issued
by the Office of Public and Indian
Housing. Participation in the
demonstration requires adherence to the
requirements outlined in a Public and
Indian Housing notice issued in
supplement to this Federal Register
notice and available at https://
portal.hud.gov/hudportal/documents/
huddoc?id=16-01pihn.pdf.
Applicable Alternative Requirements
To facilitate the operation of a FUP
demonstration, the Consolidated and
Further Continuing Appropriations Act
of 2015, authorizes the Secretary by
Federal Register notice to establish
alternative requirements to those
contained in Section 8(x) of the 1937
Act. Under this authority, the Secretary
hereby authorizes the following
alternative requirement, which has the
effect of modifying the FUP statute.
Waiver allowing the extension of the
18-month time limit for FUP assistance
to match the length of the FSS contract
for youth participating in the
demonstration.
Participation in the demonstration
requires adherence to the requirements
outlined in a Public and Indian Housing
notice issued in supplement to this
Federal Register notice.

National Wildlife Refuges, Mississippi
Final Comprehensive Conservation
Plan and Finding of No Significant
Impact for the Environmental
Assessment
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
AGENCY:
We, the Fish and Wildlife
Service (Service), announce the
availability of the final Comprehensive
Conservation plan (CCP) and finding of
no significant impact for the
environmental assessment for Theodore
Roosevelt and Holt Collier National
Wildlife Refuges (NWRs), Washington
and Sharkey Counties, Mississippi. In
the final CCP, we describe how we will
manage the two refuges for the next 15
years.
ADDRESSES: You may obtain a copy of
the CCP by downloading the document
from our Internet Site at https://
southeast.fws.gov/planning under
‘‘Final Documents.’’
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

(email).
SUMMARY:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Introduction
With this notice, we complete the
CCP process for Theodore Roosevelt and
Holt Collier NWRs. We started the
process through a notice in the Federal
Register (78 FR 45953) on July 30, 2013.
For more about the process, see that
notice.
The Theodore Roosevelt NWR
Complex (Complex) is comprised of
seven refuges: Hillside (est. 1975), Holt
Collier (est. 2004), Mathews Brake (est.
1980), Morgan Brake (est. 1977), Panther
Swamp (est. 1978), Theodore Roosevelt
(est. 2004), and Yazoo National Wildlife
Refuge (est. 1936).
The Complex was originally known as
the Yazoo National Wildlife Refuge
Complex and then briefly named the
Central Mississippi National Wildlife
Refuge Complex. On January 23, 2004,
section 145 of Public Law 108–199, the
Consolidated Appropriations Act of
2004, was signed into law by then
President George W. Bush. The Act
renamed the Complex as the Theodore
Roosevelt National Wildlife Refuge
Complex. It designated the
PO 00000
Frm 00045
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
geographically separate Bogue Phalia
Unit of Yazoo NWR as Holt Collier
NWR. The refuge consists of 2,233 acres
with an approved acquisition boundary
of 18,000 acres. The Service lists its
purpose as being designated under the
Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (16
U.S.C. 664): It ‘‘shall be administered
. . . for the conservation, maintenance,
and management of wildlife, resources
thereof, and its habitat thereon.’’
The Act also directed the Secretary of
the Interior to establish the 6,600-acre
Theodore Roosevelt NWR. No
additional land was purchased for the
two new refuges, but rather they were
assembled from disjunct Farm Service
Agency (FSA, formerly known as
Farmers Home Administration) lands
already in Service possession. To date
1,674 acres have been acquired in the
Theodore Roosevelt NWR. The Service
lists both new refuges as being
established ‘‘for conservation
purposes.’’
The habitat consists mainly of
converted agricultural lands now
reforested to trees more indicative of the
native bottomland hardwood forest.
Farmlands and open water also occur.
The refuge is not open to the public.
There are no public facilities located on
either refuge.
Background
The CCP Process
The National Wildlife Refuge (NWR)
System Improvement Act of 1997
(Improvement Act) requires us to
develop a CCP for each national wildlife
refuge. CCPs are developed to provide
refuge managers with a 15-year plan for
achieving refuges’ purposes and
contributing toward the mission of the
NWR System, consistent with sound
principles of fish and wildlife
management, conservation, legal
mandates, and our policies. CCPs
describe a broad management direction
for conserving wildlife and their
habitats. They propose wildlifedependent recreational opportunities to
be made available to the public. These
include opportunities for hunting,
fishing, wildlife observation, wildlife
photography, and environmental
education and interpretation. We will
review the CCP annually and revise it as
needed in accordance with the
Improvement Act.
Comments
We made the Draft CCP and
Environmental Assessment available
online for a 30-day public review and
comment period via a Federal Register
notice (80 FR 13420) on March 13, 2015.
A total of seven comments were
