NOFA for the Public and Indian Housing Drug Elimination Program 
(PHDEP); Correction

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian 
Housing, HUD.

ACTION: Notice of funding availability (NOFA) for fiscal year 1995; 
correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On January 5, 1995 (59 FR 1846), HUD published a NOFA that 
announced FY 1995 funding of $250,391,741 under the Public and Indian 
Housing Drug Elimination Program (PHDEP) for use in eliminating drug-
related crime. The purpose of this notice is to make corrections to the 
section specifying eligible applicants for one of the activities under 
the NOFA and to the number of points in one of the selection criteria.

DATES: The original application deadline date is not changed. 
Applications must be received at the local HUD Field Office on or 
before Friday, April 14, 1995, at 3:00 p.m., local time. This 
application deadline is firm as to date and hour. In the interest of 
fairness to all competing applicants, the Department will treat as 
ineligible for consideration any application that is received after the 
deadline. Applicants should take this practice into account and make 
early submission of their materials to avoid any risk of loss of 
eligibility brought about by any unanticipated or delivery-related 
problems. A Facsimile (FAX) is not acceptable.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) 
announcing HUD's Fiscal Year (FY) 1995 funding of $250,391,741 under 
the Public and Indian Housing Drug Elimination Program (PHDEP) was 
published on January 5, 1995 (59 FR 1846). This notice makes several 
corrections to the FY 1995 PHDEP NOFA.
    The first sentence of Paragraph I.(c)(1)(i) of the NOFA reads: 
``Contracting for security guard personnel services in public and 
Indian housing developments proposed for funding is permitted under 
this program.'' The phrase ``or employment of'' should have followed 
the word ``Contracting'' in that sentence. This notice inserts the 
missing phrase.
    Paragraph I.(c)(1)(ii) of the NOFA, Employment of Housing Authority 
Police, which lists housing authorities eligible to apply because they 
have their own housing authority (HA) police department, did not 
include the HA for Buffalo, NY. In addition, the listing for the New 
York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development, NYC, NY, 
should have read: New York City Public Housing Authority, NYC, NY. This 
notice corrects the January 5, 1995 PHDEP NOFA by republishing the 
entire list of eligible applicants under paragraph I.(c)(1)(ii) to add 
the one omitted HA to the list, and to amend the listing for the New 
York City Public Housing Authority.
    The second sentence of Paragraph I.(c)(5)(i) of the NOFA reads: 
``Members must be volunteers and must be tenants of the public and 
Indian housing development that the tenant (resident) patrol 
represents.'' This notice deletes the phrase ``that the tenant 
(resident) patrol represents'' and replaces it with the phrase 
``housing authority.''
    Accordingly, FR Doc. 95-260, the FY 1995 NOFA for the Public and 
Indian Housing Drug Elimination Program (PHDEP), published in the 
Federal Register on January 5, 1995 (60 FR 1846) is corrected as 
follows:
    1. On page 1848, in column 3, paragraph I.(c)(1)(i), on page 1849, 
in columns 1 and 2, paragraph I.(c)(1)(ii) (1) through (11), and on 
page 1851, in column 3, the second sentence in paragraph I.(c)(5)(i) 
are corrected to read as follows:
