AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian

ACTION: Final rule, correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of Housing and Urban Development is correcting
a final rule entitled, ``Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act
of 2016--Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) and Project-Based Voucher
Implementation; Additional Streamlining Changes'' that published on May
7, 2024.
DATES: Effective: June 6, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 7, 2024, HUD published a final rule
amending HUD's regulations to implement changes to the Housing Choice
Voucher (HCV) and Project-Based Voucher (PBV) programs made by the
Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act of 2016 (HOTMA) (89 FR
38224) (FR Doc. 2024-08601). In reviewing the May 7, 2024, final rule,
HUD identified five inadvertent errors.
First, in the final rule, certain amendments are delayed
indefinitely. Initially, in the DATES heading, HUD incorrectly
identified the delayed amendment to 24 CFR 983.157 as located in
instruction 100. The correct instruction is 99.
Second, amendatory instruction 64 incorrectly states the existing
regulatory text in Sec. 982.402(b)(2) as ``housing quality standards
(HQS)''. In fact, the text to be replaced reads ``housing quality
standards''.
Third, Sec. 983.10 incorrectly contains paragraph (b)(3) twice,
each with the same text. This paragraph should only be included once.
Fourth, Sec. 983.51(e)(2) incorrectly omits paragraph (ii) and
instead contains two paragraphs designated ``(iii)'', each with the
same text. The first of the two paragraphs should be designated as
paragraph (ii) and read: ``The project meets the environmental review
requirements at Sec. 983.56, if applicable; and''.
Fifth, the revisions to part 983, subpart D incorrectly excluded
Sec. 983.157, which should have been removed. A subsequent instruction
correctly adds a new Sec. 983.157, although it is delayed pending
future publication in the Federal Register.
