Department of Housing and Urban Development October 5, 2006 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Revisions to the Public Access to HUD Records Under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Regulations
Document Number: E6-16441
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2006-10-05
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
This proposed rule would clarify and explain the procedures to be followed by requesters seeking a waiver or a reduction of fees under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This proposed rule describes the information that must be included in a FOIA request and the demonstrations that must be made in order for a waiver or reduction in fees to be granted. This proposed rule would also revise the FOIA fee schedule, clarify the time at which HUD will begin processing a FOIA request, and modify HUD's policy on the use of outside contractors to fulfill FOIA requests. HUD is undertaking this effort in order to make the regulations governing fee waivers more informative and helpful in accordance with the President's recently issued Executive Order 13392, ``Improving Agency Disclosure of Information.''

Privacy Act of 1974; Notice of a Computer Matching Program between HUD and the Social Security Administration: Matching Tenant Data in Assisted Housing Programs
Document Number: E6-16435
Type: Notice
Date: 2006-10-05
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
Pursuant to the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988, as amended, and the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) Guidance on the statute, HUD is updating its notice of a matching program involving comparisons between income data provided by participants in HUD's assisted housing programs and independent sources of income information. The matching program will be carried out to detect inappropriate (excessive or insufficient) housing assistance under the National Housing Act, the United States Housing Act of 1937, section 101 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1965, the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996, and the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act (QHWRA) of 1998. The program provides for the verification of the matching results and the initiation of appropriate administrative or legal actions, primarily through public housing agencies (PHAs) and owners and agents (all collectively referred to as POAs). Indian tribes and tribally designated housing entities (TDHEs) are not a mandatory component of the computer matching program. Participation by Indian tribes and TDHEs is discretionary; however, they may receive and use social security (SS) and supplemental security income (SSI) matching information provided by HUD. This notice provides an overview of computer matching for HUD's rental assistance programs. Specifically, the notice describes HUD's program for computer matching of its tenant data to SSA's SS and SSI income benefits data.
