DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
24 CFR Part 586

[Docket No. FR-3820-N-04]


Office of the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and 
Development; Base Closure Community Redevelopment and Homeless 
Assistance; Notice of Extension

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HUD.

ACTION: Notice of extension of the Base Closure Community Redevelopment 
and Homeless Assistance Program.

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

SUMMARY: This notice extends until the effective date of a final rule 
the period that the interim rule for the Base Closure Community 
Redevelopment and Homeless Assistance Program will be in effect.

DATES: Effective Date: This Notice is effective August 29, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Perry Vietti, Office of Community 
Viability, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and 
Development, Room 7220, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 
451 7th Street, SW, Washington, DC 20410, (202) 708-2186, ext. 4396, 
or, TTY number for hearing and speech-impaired, (202) 708-0738 (these 
telephone numbers are not toll-free).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 586.50 of 24 CFR was added to 
implement a Department-wide policy for the expiration of interim rules 
within a set period of time if they are not issued in final form before 
the end of the period. The rule provides that the effective period of 
the interim rule may be extended by notice published in the Federal 
Register. Because the expiration date for the Base Closure Community 
Redevelopment and Homeless Assistance Program interim rule is currently 
September 17, 1996, and a final rule is not expected to be effective 
before that date, this notice extends the effective period of the 
interim rule until the final rule is published and made effective. A 
conforming change is also being made, in a separate publication, to 
remove Sec. 586.50.
    Accordingly, the time period during which the interim rule for the 
Base Closure Community Redevelopment and Homeless Assistance Program at 
24 CFR part 586 will be in effect is extended until the final rule for 
24 CFR part 586 is published and made effective.

    Dated: August 21, 1996.
Andrew Cuomo,
Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development.
