SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For HUD, a commitment to equal opportunity
is fundamental, not only relative to the public's expectations of fair
housing without discrimination, but also to HUD's employment of a
workforce that reflects the communities it serves. HUD remains
committed to building a leading equal employment opportunity (EEO)
program. Section 1614.102 of title 29, Code of Federal Regulations
requires that the agency's EEO program be organized and structured to
maintain a workplace that is free from discrimination in any of the
agency's policies, procedures, or practices. It also provides that the
EEO program supports the agency's strategic mission and that the ODEEO
Director be under the direct supervision of the agency head. The ODEEO
Director, Deputy Director, and other ODEEO professional staff that are
responsible for EEO programs must have regular and effective means of
informing the agency head and senior management officials of the status
of EEO programs and must be involved in, and consulted on, management/
personnel actions.

The Secretary hereby delegates to the Director and Deputy Director
of ODEEO concurrent authority and responsibility to promulgate and
