and adequately address disaster-related
needs of the most impacted, vulnerable,
and underserved communities?
b. What CDBG–DR rules, waivers, or
alternative requirements, if any, should
be modified or eliminated to ensure that
grantees advance equity in the timing of
who is able to receive assistance and the
amount of assistance available and
received? For example, by prioritizing
programs to assist homeowners over
those that assist renters, a grantee may
not have enough funding to meet the
unmet needs of renters, including those
less able to prepare for, respond to, and
recover from the impacts of disasters.
c. What CDBG–DR rules, waivers, or
alternative requirements, if any, should
be modified to further prevent an
‘‘unjustified discriminatory effect’’ (i.e.,
interests can be served by another
practice with a less discriminatory
effect) based on race or other protected
class in the implementation of CDBG–
DR funding to address disaster-related
unmet needs (recognizing that HUD has
no authority to waive or specify
alternative requirements for statutes and
regulations related to fair housing,
nondiscrimination, labor, or the
environment)?
d. What barriers impede grantees’
ability to allocate resources equitably?
What barriers do protected class groups,
vulnerable populations, and other
underserved communities face in
accessing, applying for, and receiving
CDBG–DR assistance in a timely
manner?
e. What additional guidance, data, or
support can HUD provide to help
grantees comply with fair housing and
civil rights requirements and allocate
resources equitably across housing
types?
f. What challenges do grantees face in
complying with their obligation to
ensure meaningful access for
individuals with limited English
proficiency or effective communication
for individuals with disabilities? What
tools or resources could HUD provide to
facilitate compliance with these
obligations?
g. Congress has recently identified
Indian tribes as eligible CDBG–DR
grantees but there are currently no
Indian tribes in HUD’s CDBG–DR
portfolio. Are there revisions to HUD’s
CDBG–DR policies that should be
considered to capture tribal recovery
needs more effectively? (Please also see
the request for information from the
public on the need for any revisions to
HUD’s allocation formula to better
capture tribal recovery needs published
elsewhere in today’s Federal Register.)
h. What barriers impede grantees’
ability to design and utilize buyout

programs, including incentives, to best
serve protected class groups, vulnerable
populations, and other underserved
communities? What CDBG–DR rules
and requirements, if any, should be
modified or eliminated to ensure that
grantees advance equity in their
community-driven relocation activities?
6. Incorporating Mitigation and
Resilience Planning
a. Are there CDBG–DR rules, waivers,
or alternative requirements, and/or
policies that prevent or limit grantees’
focus on mitigating the impacts of
climate change, particularly for those
areas disproportionately impacted by
climate change? If so, please describe.
b. How can CDBG–DR’s rules,
waivers, or alternative requirements or
policies be modified or eliminated to
encourage grantees to use CDBG–DR
funds to invest in activities that
incorporate resilience and mitigate the
impacts of climate change?
c. What more can HUD do to
encourage grantees to integrate longterm disaster recovery and mitigation
planning into other existing federal,
state, and local planning requirements?
7. Replacing Disaster-damaged Housing
Units, Minimizing Displacement, and
Incentivizing Affordable Housing
Development
Should CDBG–DR notices continue to
waive and provide alternative
requirements for the one-for-one
replacement housing requirements at
section 104(d)(2)(A)(i) and (ii) and (d)(3)
(42 U.S.C. 5304(d)(2)(A)(i) and (i) and
(d)(3)) of the HCDA and 24 CFR 42.375
for disaster-damaged owner-occupied
lower-income dwelling units that meet
the grantee’s definition of ‘‘not suitable
for rehabilitation?’’ To expedite
recovery, HUD waives this requirement
for disaster-damaged owner-occupied
units that meet the grantee’s definition
for ‘‘not suitable for rehabilitation.’’
CDBG–DR grantees have the discretion
to define ‘‘not suitable for
rehabilitation,’’ but must include their
definition in their action plan for
disaster recovery.
a. How can CDBG–DR rules, waivers,
or alternative requirements be modified
or eliminated to ensure that grantees are
mitigating natural hazard risks (e.g., sea
level rise, high winds, storm surge,
flooding, volcanic eruption, and
wildfire risk), while also minimizing
displacement of members of families,
individuals, or entities such as
businesses, farms, or nonprofit
organizations from their homes and
neighborhoods?
b. What additional relocation,
acquisition, and replacement housing
PO 00000
Frm 00082
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
waivers and alternative requirements
should HUD consider that would assist
and expedite community efforts to
reduce future risk while minimizing
displacement and ensuring fair
treatment and protections to those
whose property is acquired or who must
move due to a CDBG–DR funded
activity? For example, recent CDBG–DR
notices waive (and provide alternative
requirements to) several provisions of
the Uniform Relocation Assistance and
Real Property Acquisition Policies Act
of 1970, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4601 et
seq.) (URA), section 104(d) of the
HCDA, and related CDBG programmatic
requirements.
8. Modifying Green and Resilient
Building Codes and Standards.
a. Should the Department impose
construction standards that require the
use of CDBG–DR funds to adhere to
current editions of the International
Building Code (IBC), International
Existing Building Code (IEBC),
International Residential Code (IRC),
International Wildland-Urban Interface
Code (IWUIC), International Plumbing
Code (IPC), International Mechanical
Code (IMC), International Fuel Gas Code
(IFGC), International Fire Code (IFC),
ICC 500–14, ICC/NSSA Standard on the
Design and Construction of Storm
Shelters, and ICC 600–14 Standard for
Residential Construction in High-wind
Regions?
b. Should HUD better align its
building code requirements for CDBG–
DR and CDBG–MIT with those required
by FEMA or other Federal agencies? If
so, how?

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
With some exceptions, the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.),
prohibits activities that constitute take
of listed species unless a Federal permit
is issued that allows such activity. The
ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes
hunting, shooting, harming, wounding,
or killing, and also such activities as
pursuing, harassing, trapping, capturing,
or collecting.
The ESA and our implementing
regulations in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) at title 50, part 17,
provide for issuing such permits and
require that we invite public comment
before issuing permits for activities
involving listed species.
A recovery permit we issue under the
ESA, section 10(a)(1)(A), authorizes the
permittee to conduct activities with
endangered or threatened species for
scientific purposes that promote
recovery or enhance the species’
propagation or survival. These activities
often include such prohibited actions as

capture and collection. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found at 50 CFR 17.22
for endangered wildlife species, 50 CFR
17.32 for threatened wildlife species, 50
CFR 17.62 for endangered plant species,
and 50 CFR 17.72 for threatened plant
species.

Proposed activities in the following
permit requests are for the recovery and
enhancement of propagation or survival
of the species in the wild. We invite
local, State, Tribal, and Federal agencies
and the public to submit written data,
views, or arguments with respect to

Background
With some exceptions, the ESA
prohibits take of listed species unless a
Federal permit is issued that authorizes
such take. The ESA’s definition of
‘‘take’’ includes hunting, shooting,
harming, wounding, or killing, and also
such activities as pursuing, harassing,
trapping, capturing, or collecting.
A recovery permit issued by us under
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to take
endangered or threatened species while
engaging in activities that are conducted
for scientific purposes that promote
recovery of species or for enhancement
of propagation or survival of species.
These activities often include the
capture and collection of species, which
would result in prohibited take if a
permit were not issued. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found at 50 CFR 17.22
for endangered wildlife species, 50 CFR
17.32 for threatened wildlife species, 50
CFR 17.62 for endangered plant species,
and 50 CFR 17.72 for threatened plant
