SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The RAD program notice, Rental Assistance Demonstration--Final 
Implementation, Revision 3 (H-2017-03, REV-3, PIH-2012-32 (HA) January 
12, 2017) (Program Notice) permits a PHA to submit a letter of interest 
(LOI) in lieu of a RAD Application in order to reserve the PHA's spot 
on the RAD waiting list. It further states that in anticipation of 
HUD's ability to make additional awards, HUD will notify the PHA that 
it must submit a complete RAD Application, Portfolio Award, or Multi-
phase Award and comply with all the application provisions of the 
Program Notice within 60 days of such notification or forfeit its 
position on the waiting list. In a Federal Register notice published on 
August 23, 2017 (82 FR 40013), HUD provided notice to PHAs that had 
submitted LOIs to reserve their position on the RAD waiting list that 
they must provide a complete submission for the reserved units (that 
is, submit a complete RAD Application, Portfolio Award or Multi-phase 
Award and comply with all applications requirements of the Program 
Notice) within 60 days.
    The Program Notice also permits a PHA to apply for a Portfolio 
Award, which allows a PHA to reserve RAD conversion authority for a set 
of projects, as long as the PHA submits a RAD Application for at least 
50 percent of the projects identified in the portfolio. HUD issues a 
Portfolio Award Letter, which provides the PHA 365 days from issuance 
of the letter to submit acceptable RAD Applications for the remaining 
projects included in the Portfolio Award.

II. Extension of Submission Due Date for Units Reserved Through a 
Letter of Interest or Portfolio Award

    Due to the difficulties PHAs may face in meeting the deadline for 
submitting application materials, HUD may approve extensions on a case-
by-case basis to PHAs that are located in Presidentially declared 
disaster areas in accordance with the Robert T. Stafford Disaster 
Relief and Emergency Assistance Act at 42 U.S.C. 5170 and that either 
(a) had submitted LOIs, and that have subsequently been notified that 
they are eligible for award if they submit a complete RAD Application, 
Portfolio Award proposal, or Multi-phase Application within 60 days of 
notification or (b) have received a Portfolio Award and have been
