to national security and emergency

telecommunications and cybersecurity
policy.
Agenda: The NSTAC will hold a
conference call on July 14, 2017, to
discuss issues and challenges related to
NS/EP communications. This will
include discussions with senior-level
Government stakeholders and a review
of ongoing NSTAC work, including a
deliberation and vote on the
Committee’s NSTAC Report to the
President on Emerging Technologies

Strategic Vision which addresses the
near- and longer-term NS/EP
implications of emergent and expected
information and communications
technologies. The NSTAC will also
discuss the most recent tasking that was
assigned to the committee at its meeting
on May 18, 2017. The National Security
Council, on behalf of the President,
tasked the NSTAC to study ways in
which the private sector and
Government, together, can improve the
resilience of the Internet and
communications ecosystem. This
includes identifying ways to encourage
collaboration across the ecosystem to
reduce the threats perpetuated by
automated and distributed attacks (e.g.,
botnets). The desired outcome of the
NSTAC’s study will be twofold: (1)
Industry and Government will have
recommendations for strengthening
their partnership; and (2) concrete
pathways for reducing threats from
automated and distributed attacks will
be identified.
Dated: June 21, 2017.

Reform Act. This notice contains a list
of regulatory waivers granted by HUD
during the period beginning on January
1, 2017, and ending on March 31, 2017.

waivers of regulations that HUD has
approved, by publishing a notice in the
Federal Register. These notices (each
covering the period since the most
recent previous notification) shall:
a. Identify the project, activity, or
undertaking involved;
b. Describe the nature of the provision
waived and the designation of the
provision;
c. Indicate the name and title of the
person who granted the waiver request;
d. Describe briefly the grounds for

e. State how additional information

Section 106 of the HUD Reform Act

that are not relevant to the purpose of
this notice.
This notice follows procedures
provided in HUD’s Statement of Policy
on Waiver of Regulations and Directives
issued on April 22, 1991 (56 FR 16337).
In accordance with those procedures
and with the requirements of section
106 of the HUD Reform Act, waivers of
regulations are granted by the Assistant
Secretary with jurisdiction over the
regulations for which a waiver was
requested. In those cases in which a
General Deputy Assistant Secretary
granted the waiver, the General Deputy
Assistant Secretary was serving in the
absence of the Assistant Secretary in
accordance with the office’s Order of
Succession.
This notice covers waivers of
regulations granted by HUD from
January 1, 2017 through March 31, 2017.
For ease of reference, the waivers
granted by HUD are listed by HUD
program office (for example, the Office
of Community Planning and
Development, the Office of Fair Housing
and Equal Opportunity, the Office of
Housing, and the Office of Public and
Indian Housing, etc.). Within each
program office grouping, the waivers are
listed sequentially by the regulatory
section of title 24 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) that is being waived.
For example, a waiver of a provision in
24 CFR part 58 would be listed before
a waiver of a provision in 24 CFR part
570.
Where more than one regulatory
provision is involved in the grant of a
particular waiver request, the action is
listed under the section number of the
first regulatory requirement that appears
in 24 CFR and that is being waived. For
example, a waiver of both § 58.73 and
§ 58.74 would appear sequentially in the
listing under § 58.73.
Waiver of regulations that involve the
same initial regulatory citation are in
