32 CFR Part 644


Real Estate Handbook

AGENCY: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, DoD.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Corps of Engineers has rescinded Subpart E--Homeowners 
Assistance Program. The Homeowners Assistance Program has undergone 
substantial revision in the last few years since the enactment of 
Appendix E, Defense Authorization Amendments and Base Closure and 
Realignment Act of 1988 (Public Law 100-526). As published, subpart E 
bears no resemblance to the internal Engineer Regulation (ER) 405-1-12, 
Chapter 7. It is anticipated that ER 405-1-12 will continue to be 
revised as needed to better serve the interests of applicants under the 
program. Copies of ER 405-1-12 may be obtained by contacting any Corps 
of Engineers District office having responsibility for the Homeowners 
Assistance Program.

EFFECTIVE DATES: November 13, 1996.

ADDRESSES: HQUSACE, ATTN: CERE-RP, Washington, DC 20314-1000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. John F. Downey at (202) 761-8987.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to its authorities in section 1013 
of Public Law 89-754, as amended and DoD Directive 4165.50, The Corps 
removes and reserves 32 CFR, Part 644, Subpart E.

Economic Assessment and Certification

    This deletion is issued with respect to the administration of the 
Homeowners Assistance Program. There will be no negative impacts on 
potential applicants to the Homeowners Assistance Program and no 
impacts on small businesses or governments in the areas of the approved 
programs.
    I hereby certify the deletion of this subpart will have no 
significant impact on a substantial number of small entities.
