published a notice that announced three series of meetings to be held 
during March and April 1997 in Colorado Springs, Colorado to discuss 
the regulatory implementation of NAHASDA. The meetings announced were 
scheduled from March 20-27, 1997, April 8-11, 1997, and April 24-May 1, 
1997.
    The purpose of this notice is to announce a change in dates in the

meeting dates for this period are being changed to April 23, 1997 
through April 30, 1997. The precise meeting dates are: April 23, 24, 
25, 26, 28, 29, and 30, 1997.
    Because of lack of sufficient hotel accommodations during this 
period, it was necessary to move the meetings for this period to an 
earlier starting date by one day.

    The agenda planned for the meetings includes: (1) The development 
of regulatory language by workgroups; (2) discussion and approval of 
the draft regulatory language by the full Committee; and (3) other 
agenda items which may be agreed upon by the Committee.
    The meetings will be open to the public without advance 
registration. Public attendance may be limited to the space available. 
Members of the public may make statements during the meeting, to the 
extent time permits, and file written statements with the Committee for 
its consideration. Written statements should be submitted to the 
address listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION section of this notice. 
Summaries of Committee meetings will be available for public inspection 
and copying at the address in the same section.
    The location and dates of any future meetings will be published in 
the Federal Register. HUD will make every effort to publish such notice 
at least 15 calendar days prior to each meeting.
