Voluntary Agreement, focusing on
different aspects of the PPE Plan of
Action.
On May 24, 2021, four additional
plans of action under the Voluntary
Agreement—the Plan of Action to
Establish a National Strategy for the
Manufacture, Allocation, and
Distribution of Diagnostic Test Kits and
other Testing Components to respond to
COVID–19, the Plan of Action to
Establish a National Strategy for the
Manufacture, Allocation, and
Distribution of Drug Products, Drug
Substances, and Associated Medical
Devices to respond to COVID–19, the
Plan of Action to Establish a National
Strategy for the Manufacture,
Allocation, and Distribution of Medical
Devices to respond to COVID–19, and
the Plan of Action to Establish a
National Strategy for the Manufacture,
Allocation, and Distribution of Medical
Gases to respond to COVID–19—were
finalized.6 These plans of action
established several sub-committees
under the Voluntary Agreement,
focusing on different aspects of each
plan of action.
On October 15, 2021, the sixth plan of
action under the Voluntary
Agreement—the Plan of Action to
Establish a National Strategy for the
Coordination of National Multimodal
Healthcare Supply Chains to Respond to
COVID–19—was finalized.7 This plan of
action established several subcommittees under the Voluntary
Agreement, focusing on different
transportation categories.
The meetings are chaired by the
FEMA Administrator’s delegates from
the Office of Response and Recovery
(ORR) and Office of Policy and Program
Analysis (OPPA), attended by the
Attorney General’s delegates from the
U.S. Department of Justice, and attended
by the Chairman of the Federal Trade
Commission’s delegates. In
implementing the Voluntary Agreement,
FEMA adheres to all procedural
requirements of 50 U.S.C. 4558 and 44
CFR part 332.
Meeting Objectives: The objectives of
the meetings are as follows:
1. Convene the Sub-Committee to
Define Requirements under the National
Multimodal Healthcare Supply Chains
Plan of Action to establish priorities
related to the COVID–19 response under
the Voluntary Agreement.
2. Gather Sub-Committee Participants
and Attendees to ask targeted questions
for situational awareness.
3. Identify pandemic-related supply
chain issues, information gaps, and
areas for potential additional
discussion.
4. Identify potential Objectives and
Actions which correspond to SubCommittees. These will be held for
further discussion under those SubCommittees.
Meetings Closed to the Public: By
default, the DPA requires meetings held
to implement a voluntary agreement or
plan of action be open to the public.8
However, attendance may be limited if
the Sponsor 9 of the voluntary
agreement finds that the matter to be
discussed at a meeting falls within the
purview of matters described in 5 U.S.C.
552b(c), such as trade secrets and
commercial or financial information.
The Sponsor of the Voluntary
Agreement, the FEMA Administrator,
found that these meetings to implement
the Voluntary Agreement involve
matters which fall within the purview of
matters described in 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)
and the meetings are therefore closed to
the public.
Specifically, these meetings may
require participants to disclose trade
secrets or commercial or financial
information that is privileged or
confidential. Disclosure of such
information allows for meetings to be
closed to the public pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
552b(c)(4).
The success of the Voluntary
Agreement depends wholly on the
willing participation of the private
sector participants. Failure to close
these meetings to the public could
reduce active participation by the
signatories due to a perceived risk that
sensitive company information could be
prematurely released to the public. A
premature public disclosure of a private
sector participant’s information could
reduce trust and support for the
Voluntary Agreement.
A resulting loss of support by the
participants for the Voluntary
Agreement would significantly frustrate
the implementation of the Agency’s
objectives. Thus, these meeting closures
are permitted pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
552b(c)(9)(B).

Management Agency.

2011 for Section 202 and 811 capital

determine if they wish to process the

them to such processing. Staff of the
Office of Housing Assistance and Grant
Administration, Multifamily Housing

determine if a housing finance agency
wishes to participate in the program and
obtain certifications that the review of
the application was in accord with HUD
requirements.

Closeout Instructions for Community
Development Block Grant Programs
(CDBG).
OMB Approval Number: 2506–0193.
Type of Request: Reinstatement with
change of a previously approved
collection.
Form Number: 7082.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use: This
information collection is being
conducted by HUD’s Community
Planning and Development Office of
Block Grant Assistance (CPDOBGA) to
assist HUD in determining, as required
by Section 104(e) of the Housing and
Community Development Act of 1974
(HCDA), and outlined in Subpart I (for
States) and Subpart J (for entitlements)
of the CDBG regulation, whether
Grantees, (Entitlement communities,
States and units of general local
governments) have carried out eligible
activities and its certifications in
accordance with the statutory and
regulatory requirements governing State
CDBG, CDBG–R, Disaster Recovery,
Neighborhood Stabilization Program
(NSP) 1, NSP2 and NSP 3 grants prior
to closing the grant allocation. The
submission of the HUD 7082—Funding
Approval Form is necessary as the form
is the Grant Agreement between the

and is made pursuant to the authority of
the HCDA, as amended, (42 U.S.C. 5301
et seq.). HUD will make the funding
assistance as specified to the grantee
upon execution of the Agreement. We
request the paperwork approval because
the funding approval form is a vehicle
for standardizing the agreements
between HUD and each of its grantees.
