SUMMARY: On December 12, 2006, HUD published a notice in the Federal
Register seeking public comment on HUD's use of multi-race data in the
computation of the Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG) program formula.
This notice reopens the public comment period.
FULL TEXT
SUMMARY: This proposed rule would extend the due date for Indian
Housing Block Grant (IHBG) recipients to submit annual performance
reports (APRs). Through the IHBG program, HUD provides housing
assistance to Indian tribes and tribally designated housing entities
(TDHEs). Currently, HUD's regulations require IHBG recipients to submit
APRs 60 days after the end of the recipient's program year. HUD
believes that extending this deadline by an additional 30 days will
provide IHBG recipients with the necessary additional time to prepare
and submit their APRs.

SUMMARY: This final rule makes several revisions to the regulations for
the Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG) program allocation formula.
Through the IHBG program, HUD provides federal housing assistance to
Indian tribes in a manner that recognizes the right of Indian self-
determination and tribal self-government. This final rule follows
publication of a February 25, 2005, proposed rule and takes into
consideration the public comments received on the proposed rule. Other
than one conforming change, this final rule adopts the February 25,
2005, proposed rule without change. HUD negotiated the proposed rule
and final rule with active tribal participation and using the
procedures of the Negotiated Rulemaking Act of 1990.

Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG) program to purchase insurance through
nonprofit insurance entities owned and controlled by Indian tribes and
tribally designated housing entities (TDHEs). This rule follows
publication of a March 7, 2006, proposed rule, and takes into account
the public comments received on the proposed rule. This final rule
provides additional clarifications in the preamble and adopts, with one
change, the regulations in the March 7, 2006, proposed rule.

SUMMARY: This proposed rule would amend the Indian Housing Block Grant
(IHBG) program regulations to specify the conditions under which IHBG
funds may be used for project-based or tenant-based rental assistance.
The proposed rule clarifies that such rental assistance may be provided
in a manner consistent with assistance provided under section 8 of the
United States Housing Act of 1937 on behalf of a tenant receiving
assistance under the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-
Determination Act of 1996 (NAHASDA).

SUMMARY: This final rule extends the due date, by an additional 30
days, for Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG) recipients to submit annual
performance reports (APRs). Through the IHBG program, HUD provides
housing assistance to Indian tribes and tribally designated housing
entities (TDHEs). Currently, HUD's regulations require IHBG recipients
to submit APRs 60 days after the end of the recipient's program year.
This rule follows publication of a March 29, 2007, proposed rule and
takes into consideration the comments received on the proposed rule.
Because all of the comments offered support for extending this deadline
by an additional 30 days, HUD adopts the proposed rule without change.
