Background Information On several occasions in recent years, after Presidential disaster declarations, HUD has published notices to announce waivers and flexibilities available to PHAs, Tribes, and Tribally Designated Housing Entities located in areas covered by MDDs.1 In the interest of expediting HUD’s ability to provide administrative relief to PHAs in MDD declaration areas, based on HUD’s past experience, HUD is publishing this Notice on waivers and flexibilities that will be made available to PHAs on an expedited basis following MDDs. The Notice is organized as follows: • Section II describes the flexibilities that are currently available to MDD PHAs under statutes and/or regulations. MDD PHAs may avail themselves of these flexibilities, following the process described in Section IV of the Notice. • Section III describes certain HUD requirements that, if waived, may facilitate an MDD PHA’s ability to participate in relief and recovery efforts. 1 See, Regulatory and Administrative Waivers Granted for Public and Indian Housing Programs to Assist with Recovery and Relief in Hurricane Katrina Disaster Areas, 70 FR 57716 (October 3, 2005); Regulatory and Administrative Waivers Granted for Public and Indian Housing Programs to Assist with Recovery and Relief in Hurricane Rita Disaster Areas; and Additional Administrative Relief for Hurricane Katrina, 70 FR 66222 (November 1, 2005); Extension of Regulatory and Administrative Waivers Granted for Public and Indian Housing Programs to Assist With Recovery and Relief in Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and Wilma Disaster Areas, 71 FR 78022 (December 27, 2006); Regulatory and Administrative Waivers Granted for Public and Indian Housing Programs to Assist with Recovery and Relief in Hurricane Wilma Disaster Areas, 71 FR 12988 (March 13, 2006); Regulatory and Administrative Waivers Granted for Public and Indian Housing Programs to Assist with Recovery and Relief in Superstorm Sandy Disaster Areas, 77 FR 71439 (November 30, 2012); and Relief From HUD Requirements Available to PHAs to Assist With Recovery and Relief Efforts on Behalf of Families Affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, Maria and Future Natural Disasters Where Major Disaster Declarations Might be Issued in 2017, 82 FR 46821 (October 6, 2017).

The process that HUD will use in assessing applications for waivers and flexibilities is covered below: This Notice applies only during CY 2018. II. Flexibilities That Are Available to MDD PHAs During CY 2018 HUD is exercising discretionary authority consistent with 24 CFR 5.110 to provide relief from the requirements described in this section. Upon notification to HUD and appropriate documentation of good cause, or upon HUD approval, as noted below, relief will be granted to MDD PHAs.
