Department of Housing and Urban Development April 6, 2012 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Pub. L. 111-05, approved February 17, 2009) (Recovery Act), and implementing guidance of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), this notice advises that certain exceptions to the Buy American requirement of the Recovery Act have been determined applicable for work using Capital Fund Recovery Formula and Competition (CFRFC) grant funds. Specifically, an exception was granted to the Philadelphia Housing Authority for the purchase and installation of Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS)-compliant combination washer/dryer units for the Paschall Village Phase I and II project.

In accordance with the Steward B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act, as amended, HUD publishes a weekly Federal Register notice listing unutilized, underutilized, excess, and surplus Federal property reviewed by HUD for suitability for use to assist the homeless. HUD generally publishes this weekly report each Friday. Today's notice announces that because of the size of HUD's next report, the Office of the Federal Register has informed HUD that it cannot accommodate HUD's request to schedule publication of the report on Friday, April 6, 2012. As a result, HUD's next report listing unutilized, underutilized, excess, and surplus Federal property will be published in the Federal Register on April 20, 2012.
