SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HUD is
providing this notice in accordance with
the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a),
as amended by the Computer Matching
and Privacy Protection Act of 1988 (Pub.
L. 100–503) and the Computer Matching
and Privacy Protection Amendments of
1990 (Pub. L. 101–508) (Privacy Act);

(June 19, 1989); and OMB Circular A–
108, 81 FR 94424 (December 23, 2016).
To support the prevention and
detection of duplication of benefits,
HUD will request data from FEMA on
an as-needed basis to share with
Community Development Block Grant
disaster recovery (CDBG–DR) grantees,
ADDRESSES:
PO 00000
Frm 00087
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
and the grantees will use the data to
detect and prevent the duplication of
benefits. CDBG–DR grantees will
conduct a duplication of benefits review
for CDBG–DR grant-funded programs
and activities. HUD’s data request will
be based on the specific program
requirements specified in an approved
CDBG–DR grantee action plan. CDBG–
DR grantees will use FEMA data
received through HUD to facilitate
expedited program implementation
while preventing the duplication of
benefits already received from FEMA.
All data sharing from HUD to CDBG–DR
grantees will occur in accordance with
agreements between HUD and the
CDBG–DR grantees that address
requirements related to the use and
protection of the data.
Participating Agencies: U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD), the state of Iowa,
the state of California, the state of
Louisiana, and the Commonwealth of
the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI).
Authority for Conducting the
Matching Program: A. Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act (as amended at 42 U.S.C.
5155(a) et seq.) (Stafford Act), section
312, which requires each federal agency
that administers any program providing
financial assistance because of a major
disaster or emergency to assure that no
individual or entity receives duplicate
financial assistance under any program,
from insurance, or through any other
source. The Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C.
5155(c), requires FEMA or HUD
(whichever agency provided the
duplicative assistance) to recover all
duplicative assistance from the recipient
when the head of such agency considers
it to be in the best interest of the Federal
Government.
B. Section 408(i) of the Stafford Act,
42 U.S.C. 5174(i), directs and authorizes
FEMA, in carrying out Section 408
(Federal Assistance to Individuals and
Households), to ‘‘develop a system,
including an electronic database,’’ to: (a)
Verify the identity and address of
recipients of assistance to provide
reasonable assurance that payments are
made only to an individual or
household that is eligible for such
assistance, (b) Minimize the risk of
making duplicative payments or
payments for fraudulent claims, (c)
Collect any duplicate payment on a
claim or reduce the amount of
subsequent payments to offset the
amount of any such duplicate payment,
(d) Provide instructions to recipients of
assistance regarding the proper use of
any such assistance, regardless of how
such assistance is distributed, and (e)
Conduct an expedited and simplified

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 47 / Friday, March 10, 2023 / Notices
review and appeal process for an
individual or household whose
application for assistance is denied.
C. HUD imposes the requirements of
the Stafford Act, section 312, on CDBG–
DR grantees. Appropriations acts
making CDBG–DR funds available, as
listed in Section II.C.8 of the Computer
Matching Agreement, require CDBG–DR
grantees to have adequate procedures to
prevent the duplication of benefits.
HUD enforces these requirements on
CDBG–DR grantees using its statutory
and regulatory remedies for
noncompliance in Section 111 of Title
I of the Housing and Community
Development of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5311)
and regulations at 24 CFR part 570 and
2 CFR part 200.
D. Executive Order 13411, ‘‘Improving
Assistance for Disaster Victims,’’ 71 FR
52729 (August 29, 2006), calls on
federal agencies to ‘‘reduce
unnecessarily duplicative application
forms and processes for Federal disaster
assistance,’’ which includes processing
benefits applications submitted by
individuals, businesses, or other entities
for the same disaster.
E. The President may authorize both
emergency sheltering and Section 408
federal assistance to individuals and
households, pursuant to either a major
disaster under Section 403, at 42 U.S.C.
5170b, or an emergency under Section
502 of the Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C. 5192.
Essential Assistance, pursuant to
Section 403(a)(3)(B) of the Stafford Act,
42 U.S.C. 5170b, authorizes emergency
sheltering, including both congregate
and non-congregate sheltering, to meet
the immediate needs of disaster
survivors for a major disaster.
Additionally, federal assistance where
necessary to prevent human suffering
under Section 502(a)(8) authorizes
emergency sheltering for an emergency.
F. The Debt Collection Improvement
Act of 1996, 31 U.S.C. 3325(d) and
7701(c)(1), which requires federal
agencies to collect the Taxpayer
Identification Number (TIN) or Social
Security Number (SSN) of each person
who receives payments from the Federal
Government; and each person doing
business with the Federal Government
is required to furnish his or her TIN. For
the purposes of 31 U.S.C. 7701, a person
is doing business with the Federal
Government if the person is: (1) A
lender or servicer in a federal
guaranteed or insured loan program
administered by a federal agency, (2) An
applicant for, or recipient of, a federal
license permit, right-of-way, grant, or
benefit payment administered by a
federal agency, (3) A contractor of a
federal agency, (4) Assessed a fine, fee,
royalty, or penalty by a federal agency,

or (5) In a relationship with a federal
agency that may give rise to a receivable
due to that agency such as a partner of
a borrower in or a guarantor of a federal
direct or insured loan administered by
the federal agency. Each federal agency
must inform each person required to
disclose his or her TIN of the agency’s
intent to use such number for purposes
of collecting and reporting on any
delinquent amounts arising out of such
person’s relationship with the Federal
Government.
G. The appropriations acts that
authorize and appropriate supplemental
CDBG–DR assistance lay out specific
requirements, some of which may vary
by appropriation. These appropriations
acts impose requirements related to the
(1) prevention of fraud, waste, and
abuse, (2) order of assistance, and (3)
prevention of duplication of benefits on
HUD or its CDBG–DR grantees, as
directed by the applicable act. The
appropriations acts, listed below, also
require HUD to make allocations based
on a determination of unmet need in the
‘‘most impacted and distressed areas’’
resulting from major disasters.
Legal authority for CDBG–DR
assistance is derived from Title I of the
Housing and Community Development
Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5301 et seq.);
subsequent appropriations acts making
CDBG–DR assistance available; the
following prior appropriations acts—
Public Law 117–180, 117–43, 116–20,
115–254, 115–123, 115–56, 115–31,

103–211, 103–75, and 103–50—and by
the notices published in the Federal
Register that govern CDBG–DR grant
assistance including the Updates to
Duplication of Benefits Requirements
Under the Stafford Act for Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Disaster Recovery Grantees at 84 FR
28836 (June 20, 2019).
H. The HUD regulation at 24 CFR
982.352(c) prohibits a family from
receiving the benefit of Section 8 tenantbased assistance under the Housing
Choice Voucher Program while also
receiving the benefit of any of the
following forms of other housing
subsidy for the same or a different unit:
1. Public or Indian housing assistance,
2. Section 8 assistance (including
other tenant-based assistance) under
Section 8 of the U.S. Housing Act of

10. Section 811 of the CranstonGonzalez National Affordable Housing
Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 8013
(Section 811 supportive housing for
persons with disabilities),
11. Section 202 projects for nonelderly persons with disabilities
(Section 162 assistance) authorized by
Section 162 of the Housing and
Community Development Act of 1987,

202(h) of the Housing Act of 1959, or
12. Any other duplicative federal,
state, or local housing subsidy, as
determined by HUD. For this purpose,
‘‘housing subsidy’’ does not include the
housing component of a welfare
payment, a Social Security payment
received by the family, or a rent
reduction because of a tax credit. (June
20, 2019).
Purpose(s): The Computer Matching
Agreements describe the respective
responsibilities of HUD and the state of
Iowa, the state of California, the state of
Louisiana, and the CNMI to determine
and verify the accuracy of the data,
eligibility for their respective benefits,
and to preserve the confidentiality of
information in accordance with the
matching program. The requirements of
the Computer Matching Agreements
will be carried out by authorized users
of the state of Iowa, the state of
California, the state of Louisiana, and
the CNMI (which include the grantees’
authorized employees, and contractors).
The agreements also describe the
responsibilities of HUD, HUD’s CDBG–
DR grantees, and DHS–FEMA for other
purposes, as described below.
The Computer Matching Agreements

Household Program data. All FEMA
program data that HUD provides to
CDBG–DR grantees will be shared via
these Computer Matching Agreements
between HUD and CDBG–DR grantees
that reflect the requirements of the
Computer Matching Agreement between
FEMA and HUD. The data exchanged
between HUD and CDBG–DR grantees
will be used to support the duplication
of benefits checks conducted by the
grantee.
HUD will provide FEMA data to
CDBG–DR grantees, pursuant to their
separate Computer Matching
Agreements, for them to use to
determine the correct award amount for
eligible program beneficiaries by
identifying unmet needs of FEMA
applicants; prevent the duplication of
benefits; implement the statutory
requirement that CDBG–DR funds may
not be used for activities reimbursable
by or for which funds are made
available by FEMA; and implement the
statutory requirement to establish
procedures to detect and prevent waste,
fraud, and abuse of funds.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A.
This initial Operations Notice was
followed by subsequent Federal
Register notices. On May 4, 2017, HUD
published the Operations Notice for the
Expansion of the Moving to Work
Demonstration Program Solicitation of
Comment; Waiver Revision and
Reopening of Comment Period.’’ On
October 5, 2018, HUD published a
further Operations Notice (83 FR 50387)
(a correction and extension of the
comment period was published on
October 11, 2018 (83 FR 51474)). This
notice made changes as a result of the
prior public comments, and again
solicited public comments. After
reviewing these comments and making
changes, the Operations Notice was then
published for implementation on
August 28, 2020 (85 FR 53444).
On December 27, 2018, HUD issued
for public comment the 60-day notice
for the Moving to Work Amendment to
the Consolidated Annual Contributions

under the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq. (83 FR 66738). The
MTW ACC Amendment was revised in
response to public comments received
under the 60-day Notice. The formal
title was also changed to the ‘‘Moving to
Work Amendment to the Annual
Contributions Contract(s).’’ On,
November 8, 2019, HUD issued for the
public comment the 30-day notice for
The MTW ACC Amendment. The MTW
ACC Amendment was further revised in
response to public comments received
under the 30-day Notice, and published
for use on August 31, 2020. This notice
seeks public comment on the renewal of
MTW ACC Amendment.
A. Background

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HUD is providing this notice in accordance
with the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), as amended by the
Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100-503)
and the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Amendments of 1990
(Pub. L. 101-508) (Privacy Act); Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
Final Guidance Interpreting the Provisions of Public Law 100-503, the
Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988, 54 FR 25818 (June
19, 1989); and OMB Circular A-108, 81 FR 94424 (December 23, 2016).
To support the prevention and detection of duplication of benefits,
HUD will request data from FEMA on an as-needed basis to share with
Community Development Block Grant disaster recovery (CDBG-DR) grantees,
and the grantees will use the data to detect and prevent the
duplication of benefits. CDBG-DR grantees will conduct a duplication of
benefits review for CDBG-DR grant-funded programs and activities. HUD's
data request will be based on the specific program requirements
specified in an approved CDBG-DR grantee action plan. CDBG-DR grantees
will use FEMA data received through HUD to facilitate expedited program
implementation while preventing the duplication of benefits already
received from FEMA. All data sharing from HUD to CDBG-DR grantees will
occur in accordance with agreements between HUD and the CDBG-DR
grantees that address requirements related to the use and protection of
the data.
Participating Agencies: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD), the state of Iowa, the state of California, the
state of Louisiana, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands (CNMI).
Authority for Conducting the Matching Program: A. Robert T.
Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (as amended at 42
U.S.C. 5155(a) et seq.) (Stafford Act), section 312, which requires
each federal agency that administers any program providing financial
assistance because of a major disaster or emergency to assure that no
individual or entity receives duplicate financial assistance under any
program, from insurance, or through any other source. The Stafford Act,
42 U.S.C. 5155(c), requires FEMA or HUD (whichever agency provided the
duplicative assistance) to recover all duplicative assistance from the
recipient when the head of such agency considers it to be in the best
interest of the Federal Government.
B. Section 408(i) of the Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C. 5174(i), directs
and authorizes FEMA, in carrying out Section 408 (Federal Assistance to
Individuals and Households), to ``develop a system, including an
electronic database,'' to: (a) Verify the identity and address of
recipients of assistance to provide reasonable assurance that payments
are made only to an individual or household that is eligible for such
assistance, (b) Minimize the risk of making duplicative payments or
payments for fraudulent claims, (c) Collect any duplicate payment on a
claim or reduce the amount of subsequent payments to offset the amount
of any such duplicate payment, (d) Provide instructions to recipients
of assistance regarding the proper use of any such assistance,
regardless of how such assistance is distributed, and (e) Conduct an
expedited and simplified
[[Page 15057]]
review and appeal process for an individual or household whose
application for assistance is denied.
C. HUD imposes the requirements of the Stafford Act, section 312,
on CDBG-DR grantees. Appropriations acts making CDBG-DR funds
available, as listed in Section II.C.8 of the Computer Matching
Agreement, require CDBG-DR grantees to have adequate procedures to
prevent the duplication of benefits. HUD enforces these requirements on
CDBG-DR grantees using its statutory and regulatory remedies for
noncompliance in Section 111 of Title I of the Housing and Community
Development of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5311) and regulations at 24 CFR part 570
and 2 CFR part 200.
D. Executive Order 13411, ``Improving Assistance for Disaster
Victims,'' 71 FR 52729 (August 29, 2006), calls on federal agencies to
``reduce unnecessarily duplicative application forms and processes for
Federal disaster assistance,'' which includes processing benefits
applications submitted by individuals, businesses, or other entities
for the same disaster.
E. The President may authorize both emergency sheltering and
Section 408 federal assistance to individuals and households, pursuant
to either a major disaster under Section 403, at 42 U.S.C. 5170b, or an
emergency under Section 502 of the Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C. 5192.
Essential Assistance, pursuant to Section 403(a)(3)(B) of the Stafford
Act, 42 U.S.C. 5170b, authorizes emergency sheltering, including both
congregate and non-congregate sheltering, to meet the immediate needs
of disaster survivors for a major disaster. Additionally, federal
assistance where necessary to prevent human suffering under Section
502(a)(8) authorizes emergency sheltering for an emergency.
F. The Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, 31 U.S.C. 3325(d)
and 7701(c)(1), which requires federal agencies to collect the Taxpayer
Identification Number (TIN) or Social Security Number (SSN) of each
person who receives payments from the Federal Government; and each
person doing business with the Federal Government is required to
furnish his or her TIN. For the purposes of 31 U.S.C. 7701, a person is
doing business with the Federal Government if the person is: (1) A
lender or servicer in a federal guaranteed or insured loan program
administered by a federal agency, (2) An applicant for, or recipient
of, a federal license permit, right-of-way, grant, or benefit payment
administered by a federal agency, (3) A contractor of a federal agency,
(4) Assessed a fine, fee, royalty, or penalty by a federal agency, or
(5) In a relationship with a federal agency that may give rise to a
receivable due to that agency such as a partner of a borrower in or a
guarantor of a federal direct or insured loan administered by the
federal agency. Each federal agency must inform each person required to
disclose his or her TIN of the agency's intent to use such number for
purposes of collecting and reporting on any delinquent amounts arising
out of such person's relationship with the Federal Government.
G. The appropriations acts that authorize and appropriate
supplemental CDBG-DR assistance lay out specific requirements, some of
which may vary by appropriation. These appropriations acts impose
requirements related to the (1) prevention of fraud, waste, and abuse,
(2) order of assistance, and (3) prevention of duplication of benefits
on HUD or its CDBG-DR grantees, as directed by the applicable act. The
appropriations acts, listed below, also require HUD to make allocations
based on a determination of unmet need in the ``most impacted and
distressed areas'' resulting from major disasters.
Legal authority for CDBG-DR assistance is derived from Title I of
the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5301 et
seq.); subsequent appropriations acts making CDBG-DR assistance
available; the following prior appropriations acts-- Public Law 117-
180, 117-43, 116-20, 115-254, 115-123, 115-56, 115-31, 114-254, 114-
223, 114-113, 113-2, 112-55, 111-212, 110-329, 110-252, 110-116, 109-
234, 109-148, 108-324, 107-206, 107-117, 107-73, 107-38, 106-31, 105-
277, 105-276, 105-174, 105-18, 104-134, 104-19, 103-327, 103-211, 103-
75, and 103-50--and by the notices published in the Federal Register
that govern CDBG-DR grant assistance including the Updates to
Duplication of Benefits Requirements Under the Stafford Act for
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Disaster Recovery Grantees at
84 FR 28836 (June 20, 2019).
H. The HUD regulation at 24 CFR 982.352(c) prohibits a family from
receiving the benefit of Section 8 tenant-based assistance under the
Housing Choice Voucher Program while also receiving the benefit of any
of the following forms of other housing subsidy for the same or a
different unit:
1. Public or Indian housing assistance,
2. Section 8 assistance (including other tenant-based assistance)
under Section 8 of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937, 42 U.S.C. 1437f,
3. Assistance under former Section 23 of the United States Housing
Act of 1937 (before amendment by the Housing and Community Development
Act of 1974),
4. Section 101 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, 12
U.S.C.1701s (Section 101 rent supplements),
5. Section 236 of the National Housing Act, 12 U.S.C.1715z-1
(Section 236 rental assistance payments),
6. Tenant-based assistance under the HOME Investment Partnerships
Program (HOME) authorized by Title II of the Cranston-Gonzalez National
Affordable Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. 12701 et seq.,
7. Rental assistance payments under Section 521 of the Housing Act
of 1949, 42 U.S.C. 258 1441 et seq. (a program of the Rural Development
Administration),
8. Any local or state rent subsidy,
9. Section 202 of the Housing Act of 1959, 12 U.S.C. 1701q, as
amended (Section 202 supportive housing for the elderly),
10. Section 811 of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable
Housing Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 8013 (Section 811 supportive housing
for persons with disabilities),
11. Section 202 projects for non-elderly persons with disabilities
(Section 162 assistance) authorized by Section 162 of the Housing and
Community Development Act of 1987, 12 U.S.C. 1701a note, amending
Section 202(h) of the Housing Act of 1959, or
12. Any other duplicative federal, state, or local housing subsidy,
as determined by HUD. For this purpose, ``housing subsidy'' does not
include the housing component of a welfare payment, a Social Security
payment received by the family, or a rent reduction because of a tax
credit. (June 20, 2019).
Purpose(s): The Computer Matching Agreements describe the
respective responsibilities of HUD and the state of Iowa, the state of
California, the state of Louisiana, and the CNMI to determine and
verify the accuracy of the data, eligibility for their respective
benefits, and to preserve the confidentiality of information in
accordance with the matching program. The requirements of the Computer
Matching Agreements will be carried out by authorized users of the
state of Iowa, the state of California, the state of Louisiana, and the
CNMI (which include the grantees' authorized employees, and
contractors). The agreements also describe the responsibilities of HUD,
HUD's CDBG-DR grantees, and DHS-FEMA for other purposes, as described
below.
The Computer Matching Agreements establish the terms and conditions
governing the CDBG-DR grantees access to, and use of FEMA's Individual
Assistance (IA), Individual's and
[[Page 15058]]
Household Program data. All FEMA program data that HUD provides to
CDBG-DR grantees will be shared via these Computer Matching Agreements
between HUD and CDBG-DR grantees that reflect the requirements of the
Computer Matching Agreement between FEMA and HUD. The data exchanged
between HUD and CDBG-DR grantees will be used to support the
duplication of benefits checks conducted by the grantee.
HUD will provide FEMA data to CDBG-DR grantees, pursuant to their
separate Computer Matching Agreements, for them to use to determine the
correct award amount for eligible program beneficiaries by identifying
unmet needs of FEMA applicants; prevent the duplication of benefits;
implement the statutory requirement that CDBG-DR funds may not be used
for activities reimbursable by or for which funds are made available by
FEMA; and implement the statutory requirement to establish procedures
to detect and prevent waste, fraud, and abuse of funds.
Categories of Individuals: DHS/FEMA data in this matching program
