Abstract
The Department of the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published a notice in the Federal Register on October 5, 2023, to inform members of the public that HUD was updating its 2020 version of the Section 3 benchmark notice pursuant to HUD's regulations, which require that HUD set Section 3 benchmarks by publishing a notification, subject to public comment, in the Federal Register and update the benchmarks no less frequently than once every three years by the same method of notification. The notice provided an opportunity for public comment about the Section 3 benchmark goals but did not include the option of electronic submission through Regulations.gov. The notice also did not specify a period of time for the public comment period. This notice corrects these omissions and establishes a public comment period of sixty days to submit comments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Correction
In the Federal Register of October 5, 2023, in FR Doc 2023-22183,
on page 69219, in the first column, the following corrections are made:
1. On page 69219, in the first column, in the Dates caption, revise
the ``Dates'' section to read as follows:
DATES: Effective Date: December 22, 2023. Comment Due Date: January 22,
2024.
2. On page 69219, in the first column, after the dates section, add
a section to read as follows:
ADDRESSES: HUD invites interested persons to submit comments to the
Office of the General Counsel, Regulations Division, Department of
Housing and Urban Development, 451 7th Street SW, Room 10276,
Washington, DC 20410-0500. Communications should refer to the above
docket number and title and should contain the information specified in
the ``Request for Comments'' section. There are two methods for
submitting public comments.
1. Electronic Submission of Comments. Comments may be submitted
electronically through the Federal eRulemaking Portal at
<a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a>. HUD strongly encourages commenters to submit
comments electronically. Electronic submission of comments allows the
commenter maximum time to prepare and submit a comment, ensures timely
receipt by HUD, and enables HUD to make comments immediately available
to the public. Comments submitted electronically through the website
can be viewed by other commenters and interested members of the public.
Commenters should follow instructions provided on that site to submit
comments electronically.
2. Submission of Comments by Mail. Comments may be submitted by
mail to the Regulations Division, Office of General Counsel, Department
of Housing and Urban Development, 451 7th Street SW, Room 10276,
Washington, DC 20410-0500. Due to security measures at all Federal
agencies, however, submission of comments by mail often results in
delayed delivery. To ensure timely receipt, HUD recommends that
comments be mailed at least two weeks in advance of the public comment
deadline.
Aaron Santa Anna,
Associate General Counsel, Office of Legislation and Regulations.
