SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
The Housing Counseling Federal
Advisory Committee (HCFAC) is
congressionally mandated to provide
advice to the Office of Housing
Counseling (OHC) (Pub. L. 111–203).
The HCFAC provides the OHC valuable
advice regarding its mission to provide
individuals and families with the
knowledge they need to obtain, sustain,
and improve their housing through a
strong national network of HUDapproved housing counseling agencies
and HUD-certified counselors. The
HCFAC, however, has no role in
reviewing or awarding of OHC housing
counseling grants and procurement
contracts. The HCFAC is subject to the
requirements of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (5 U.S.C. Appendix), 41
CFR parts 101–6 and 102–3, and
Presidential Memorandum ‘‘Final
Guidance on Appointments of Lobbyists
to Federal Boards and Commissions,’’
dated June 18, 2010, along with any
relevant guidance published in the
Federal Register or otherwise issued by
PO 00000
Frm 00075
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB).1
The HCFAC shall consist of not more
than 12 individuals appointed by the
Secretary. The membership will equally
represent the mortgage industry, real
estate industry, consumers, and HUDapproved housing counseling agencies.
Each member shall be appointed in his
or her individual capacity for a term of
3 years and may be reappointed at the
discretion of the Secretary. Of the 12
members first appointed to the HCFAC
in 2016, 4 were appointed for an initial
term of 1 year, 4 were appointed for a
term of 2 years, and 4 were appointed
for a term of 3 years. The initial 12
appointments were made by the
Secretary on June 1, 2016, and the oneyear appointees terms will expire on
May 31, 2017. This notice indicates the
Secretary’s decision to reappoint to new
three-year terms the original appointees
for consumer, mortgage, and housing
counseling and to solicit applications to
address a vacancy for real estate due to
a withdrawal from consideration.
III. Nominations for the Housing
Counseling Federal Advisory
Committee
HUD is seeking nominations for an
individual whose experience is
representative of the real estate industry
to fill one vacancy. Individuals may
nominate themselves. Nominees must
be U.S. citizens, and cannot be
employees of the U.S. Government. All
nominees will be serving in their
‘‘individual capacity’’ and not in a
‘‘representative capacity,’’ therefore, no
Federally-registered lobbyists may serve
on the HCFAC.2 Individual capacity, as
clarified by OMB, refers to individuals
who are appointed to committees to
1 See 76 FR 61756 (‘‘Final Guidance on
Appointments of Lobbyists to Federal Boards and
Commissions’’); and 79 FR 47482 (‘‘Revised
Guidance on Appointment of Lobbyists to Federal
Advisory Committees, Boards, and Commissions’’);
see also https://www.whitehouse.gov/the:pressoffice/presidential-memorandum-lobbyists-agencyboards-and-commissions (‘‘Lobbyist on Agency
Boards and Commissions’’).
2 See 79 FR 47482 (‘‘Revised Guidance on
Appointment of Lobbyists to Federal Advisory
Committees, Boards, and Commissions’’) (clarifying
that federally registered lobbyists may not serve on
advisory committee, board, or Commission in an
‘‘individual capacity.’’).

HCFAC members will be required to

to be the exclusive method by which
HUD will solicit nominations and
expressions of interest to identify
qualified candidates; however, all
candidates for membership on the
HCFAC will be subject to the same
evaluation criteria.
III. Selection and Meetings
After all nominations, have been
reviewed, HUD will publish a notice in
the Federal Register announcing the
appointment of the HCFAC member.
Member selection will be made by the
Secretary and will be based on the
candidate’s qualifications to contribute
to the accomplishment of the HCFAC’s
objectives. HCFAC selection will be
made based on factors such as expertise
and diversity of viewpoints that are
necessary to effectively address the
matters before the HCFAC. Membership
on the HCFAC is personal to the
appointee and HCFAC members serve at
the discretion of the Secretary.
The estimated number of meetings
anticipated within a fiscal year is two.
Additional meetings may be held as
needed to render advice to the Deputy
Assistant Secretary for the Office of
Housing Counseling. All meetings will
be announced by notice in the Federal
Register. The meetings may use
electronic communication technologies
for attendance.
