grantees to implement the HOTMA final
rule, CPD grantees may not be able to
comply with the requirements of the
HOTMA final rule. Even after the
necessary guidance and system updates
are made, CPD grantees will still need
additional time to incorporate this
information into their program policies
and procedures and update their
systems and software. In recognition of
these operational issues and challenges,
HUD will allow CPD grantees to set
their own compliance date for the
applicable HOTMA final rule
provisions. This compliance date may
be as early as January 1, 2024, and no
later than January 1, 2025. CPD grantees
may continue to implement the
requirements of the prior version of
their program regulations and
regulations in 24 CFR 5.603, 24 CFR
5.609, 24 CFR 5.611, and 24 CFR 5.617,
as applicable, until the CPD grantee’s
compliance date.

III. Instructions for CPD Programs
HUD provides the below instructions
and guidance for CPD programs. Before
implementing the HOTMA final rule,
CPD grantees must comply with all
applicable HOTMA requirements to
establish policies and procedures,
including establishing hardship policies
for programs implementing the hardship
provisions contained in 24 CFR
5.611(c)–(e), policies prescribing when
and under what conditions a family
must report a change in family income
or composition in accordance with 24
CFR 574.310(e)(4)(iv), and/or policies
describing income verification when
using the safe harbor provisions in 24
CFR 5.609(c). In addition, CPD grantees
must perform the following, as
applicable, to implement the HOTMA
final rule:
• Conduct any public process
necessary to comply with the
consolidated plan requirements.
• Update program guidelines, policies
and procedures, templates, income and
asset forms, and applications.
• Conduct internal and external
system and software updates.
• Update income and asset regulatory
citations and requirements in written
agreement templates.
• Require owners to send notices to
tenants of any expected changes to
leases or rents required by the HOTMA
final rule.
• Train staff, subrecipients, and
contractors on the new income
requirements and perform outreach to

housing partners (e.g., project owners)
to implement the HOTMA final rule.
To assist CPD grantees in
implementing these requirements, HUD
intends to issue supplemental guidance
to HOME participating jurisdictions and
HTF grantees, including guidance on
obtaining income eligibility
determinations made by PHAs, owners,
and providers of HUD rental assistance
or subsidy programs. HUD also intends
to publish, through a Federal Register
notice, guidance on implementing
HOTMA standards applicable to the
HOPWA program.
IV. Conclusion
Accordingly, HUD revises the January
1, 2024 compliance date for the changes
made to 24 CFR parts 5, 92, 93, 570, and
574 for the CPD programs described in
this notice to January 1, 2025, at which
time CPD grantees subject to these parts
must comply with the HOTMA final
rule. Until January 1, 2025, CPD
grantees subject to these parts may
instead choose to comply with these
parts as they existed prior to January 1,
2024.

With some exceptions, the ESA
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 such
activities as pursuing, harassing,
trapping, capturing, or collecting, in
addition to hunting, shooting, harming,
wounding, or killing.
A recovery permit issued by us under
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to conduct
activities with endangered or threatened
species for scientific purposes that
promote recovery or for enhancement of
propagation or survival of the species.
These activities often include such
prohibited actions as capture and
collection. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found in the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) 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.
