Download as PDF 73128 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 205 / Monday, October 24, 2016 / Notices (formerly WebBoards) is an informationsharing environment designed to serve stakeholders in the transportation security community and is used to disseminate mission-critical information. It provides stakeholders with an online portal which allows authorized users to obtain, post, and exchange information, access common resources, and communicate with similarly situated individuals. This system also integrates other securityrelated information and communications at the sensitive security information (SSI) level. It is located in a secure online environment and is accessible from the Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN) and TSA (for TSA staff only). Accessing and using TSA infoBoards is completely voluntary; TSA does not require participation. TSA will collect two types of information through TSA infoBoards: (1) User registration information and (2) user’s choice of ‘‘communities.’’ TSA infoBoards users are not required to provide all information requested– however, if users choose to withhold information, they will not receive the benefits of TSA infoBoards associated with that information collection. 1. User registration information. TSA will collect registration information to ensure only those meeting the requirements for access to SSI information under TSA’s regulations (49 CFR part 1520) are given access to the TSA infoBoards. Such registration information will include the user’s name, professional contact information, agency/company, job title, employer, airport (optional), citizenship, regulatory category, and employment verification contact information. 2. User’s Choice of TSA infoBoards Communities. TSA will collect information on the user’s choice of TSA infoBoards community(ies). To meet the requirements for access to SSI under TSA’s regulations, users are asked to submit their desired requestor type and boards so that TSA may assess the user’s qualifications and needs before granting access.

An inability to collect this information will limit TSA’s ability to enable modal operators to respond to, and quickly recover after, a transportation security incident. Insufficient awareness, prevention, response, and recovery to a transportation security incident will result in increased vulnerability of the U.S. transportation network.

ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: This notice advises that HUD is extending the deadline for submission of an Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) by consolidated plan program participants that received in Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 or receive in a subsequent fiscal year a Community Development Block Grant of $500,000 or less, or in the case of a HOME consortium, whose members collectively received a CDBG grant of $500,000 or less, from the program year that begins on or after January 1, 2018, to the program year that begins on or after January 1, 2019 for which a new consolidated plan is due, the same date that qualified public housing agencies (PHAs) are to submit their AFHs.

Individuals with hearing or speech impediments may access this number via TTY by calling the toll-free Federal Relay Service during working hours at 1–800–877–8339. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: I. Background On July 16, 2015, at 80 FR 42357, HUD published in the Federal Register its Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) final rule. The AFFH final rule provides HUD program participants with a new approach for planning for fair housing outcomes that will assist them in meeting their statutory obligation to affirmatively further fair housing as required by the Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. 3608. To assist HUD program participants in meeting this obligation, the AFFH rule provides that program participants must conduct an Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) using an ‘‘Assessment Tool.’’ HUD’s AFFH regulations codified in 24 CFR part 5 provide, in § 5.160, for a PO 00000 Frm 00074 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 73129 staggered AFH submission deadline for its program participants. For example, § 5.160 provides that for their first AFH, consolidated program participants, except for program participants that received a FY 2015 CDBG grant of $500,000 or less, must submit an AFH no later than 270 calendar days prior to the start of their program year that begins on or after January 1, 2017 for which a new consolidated plan is due. Section 5.160 provides that consolidated program participants that received a FY 2015 CDBG grant of $500,000 or less must submit their first AFH no later than 270 calendar days prior to the start of the program year that begins on or after January 1, 2018 for which a new consolidated plan is due. Section 5.160 provides that qualified public housing agencies (PHAs) 1 must submit their first AFH no later than 270 calendar days prior to the start of the fiscal year that begins on or after January 1, 2019 for which a new 5-year plan is due. By notice published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2015, at 80 FR 2062, prior to publication of the AFFH final rule, HUD announced its intention to provide a later AFH submission deadline for certain program participants that are typically small entities, such as qualified PHAs, or in the case of consolidated program participants that receive a small CDBG grant of $350,000 or less. HUD solicited public comment with the notice for a period of 30 days, on its January 15, 2015, and public feedback was favorable to HUD’s proposal to provide later AFH submission deadlines for smaller program participants and program participants that received a smaller CDBG grant. In consideration of public comment received on the January 15, 2015, notice, and, as noted above, in the AFFH final rule, HUD provided a separate submission deadline for QPHAs; that is, their first AFH is due no later than 270 calendar days prior to the start of the fiscal year that begins on or after January 1, 2019 for which a new 1 ‘‘Qualified PHA,’’ is defined in section 2702 of title VII of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) (Public Law 110–289, approved July 30, 2008). Section 2702 of HERA defines ‘‘qualified PHA’’ as a PHA: (1) for which the sum of (i) the number of public housing dwelling units administered by PHA, and (ii) the number of vouchers under section 8(o) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f(o)) administered by the PHA is 550 or fewer; and (2) that is not designated under section 6(j)(2) of the United States Housing Act as a troubled PHA, and does not have a failing score under the Section 8 Management Assessment Program during the prior 12 months. HUD codified this statutory definition in its regulations on Public Housing Agency Plans at 24 CFR part 903, and the definition of ‘‘qualified PHA’’ is found at § 903.3(c).
