[Docket No. FR-4451-F-04]
RIN 2577-AB95


Public Housing Drug Elimination Program Formula Allocation

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This final rule amends HUD regulations to replace the 
competitive distribution of HUD's Public and Indian Housing Drug 
Elimination Program (PHDEP) funds with a formula allocation funding 
system. The purpose of this amendment is to provide a more timely, 
predictable and equitable allocation of PHDEP funds, and to improve 
program quality, effectiveness and accountability. The competitive 
distribution of funding through the Assisted Housing component of the 
Drug Elimination Program is not affected by this rule.

DATES: Effective Date: October 14, 1999.
    Application Due Date: (for eligible PHAs listed in the preamble who 
have not yet submitted an application for funding): October 14, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Eligible PHAs listed in the preamble who have not yet 
submitted an application for funding must submit an original and two 
copies of the information requested in the Notice Withdrawing and 
Reissuing FY 1999 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the FY 1999 
Public Housing Drug Elimination Program (PHDEP), published on May 12, 
1999 (64 FR 25746) to the local Field Office with delegated public 
housing responsibilities: Attention: Director, Office of Public 
Housing. For a listing of Field Offices, please see the application 
kit, or the Appendix published in the February 26, 1999 SuperNOFA at 64 
FR 9767.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Section 586 of the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 
1998 (Pub.L. 105-276, 112 Stat. 2461, approved October 21, 1998) 
(Public Housing Reform Act) makes certain amendments to the Public and 
Assisted Housing Drug Elimination Act of 1990, including authorizing 
HUD to make renewable grants to continue or expand eligible drug 
elimination activities.
    On February 18, 1999 (64 FR 8210), HUD published an Advance Notice 
of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR) to solicit comments on possible methods 
and elements of a need-based formula and performance criteria. HUD 
received 60 comments in response to the ANPR, which were considered in 
the development of a proposed rule on formula funding for PHDEP. The 
proposed rule was published on May 12, 1999 (64 FR 25736). HUD received 
26 comments on the proposed rule, which are discussed in the following 
section.

II. Public Comment on the Proposed Rule

    This final rule takes into consideration the comments received on 
the proposed rule, as discussed below.

Formula Funding

    Comment: Allocation of funding on formula basis is good, however 
factors used (applicant's share of total number of units of all 
applicants that qualify for funding) will result in agency experiencing 
a $100,000 loss of funding. Recommend a ``hold harmless'' provision for 
successful PHA performers for no less than the average funding they 
received in FY 96, 97, or 98. A minimum or ``hold harmless'' annual 
PHDEP funding level must be established to do adequate planning.
    HUD response: As HUD discussed in the preamble to the proposed rule 
in response to similar comments submitted on the ANPR published on 
February 18, 1999, the certainty of funding over a five-year period 
provides compensation for problems resulting from a drop in funding 
from higher, though less certain, levels. Crime is a widespread 
problem, and one of HUD's goals in revising the funding distribution 
process is to make assistance to address this problem more widely 
available. HUD is also attempting to strike an appropriate balance to 
maximize the effective use of limited funds. The available funding can 
address only a fraction of the need across all PHAs. Increasing funding 
for one group decreases funding available for those outside the group, 
and HUD is concerned that the suggested ``hold harmless'' level of 
funding would result in a program that, overall, would be less 
effective.
    Comment: The proposed rule assumes that drug activity and related 
crime in preference category applicants will remain static, not 
changing character or increasing over the 5-year period. This locks an 
applicant into a funding level that cannot be adjusted to deal with 
unforeseen changes.
    HUD response: The certainty of funding under the formula 
distribution system in this rule provides a greater level of 
flexibility to address unforeseen changes than the previous competitive 
funding system did. Eligible applicants are required to submit a plan 
for each year of funding, and it is anticipated that each year's grant 
would normally cover a two year grant period, the same as under the 
previous funding system. Unforeseen changes arising in one year could 
be addressed in the next year's plan, for which funding could be used 
over a one-year grant period, if necessary to address the unforeseen 
changes. The certainty of renewable funding, combined with a PHA's 
ability to plan for one-or two-year grant terms, provides a wide 
latitude for PHAs to address their crime problems.
    Comment: The proposed rule assumes that public housing in every PHA 
in the preference category is of a similar size, type, and geographic 
distribution. PHAs with higher numbers of scattered site units require 
different, more costly, law enforcement strategies. A formula 
distribution according to unit count does not adequately capture the 
severity of crime and related issues in and around the developments of 
eligible PHAs. A multiplier, directly proportional to the number of 
drug related crimes reported by the local police department to be 
related to the activity generated in or around targeted public housing 
units, divided by the number of drug-related crimes in the surrounding 
police district, would have the effect of increasing the number of 
units in specific developments.
    HUD response: Not only the number of scattered site units, but 
their geographic distribution, could be considered a factor in a 
formula to distribute funds. This one example demonstrates the 
complexity that each new factor introduces to a formula and

[[Page 49901]]

the difficulty of addressing each factor completely and fairly. HUD is 
opting to follow the simplified per unit approach that many of the 
comments on the ANPR and proposed rule favored. If experience 
demonstrates that this approach is not appropriate or can be 
significantly improved, HUD will undertake additional rulemaking.
    Comment: Although many comments favored the simplified per unit 
approach to the formula, several comments complained about the 
reduction in the per unit amount that results under the formula.
    HUD response: As noted above, this rule makes the amount of 
assistance available to fight crime more widely available. This 
necessarily results in a reduction of the per unit amount that was 
formerly available to successful applicants, but as also noted above, 
this reduction in funding for a particular year is balanced by the 
certainty of funding over a number of years.

Minimum and Maximum Allocation

    Comment: There were several comments that addressed maximum and 
minimum allocations, with some supporting $25,000 as the minimum 
funding allocation, and others recommending that the minimum amount of 
funding should be retained at $50,000. There was a suggestion that all 
PHAs that have received funding at some time in the last three years 
should be capped at 105 percent to prevent windfalls. One comment 
stated the funding cap per PHA should remain $35 million per year.
    HUD response: The comments were not opposed, but were concerned 
with the fairness of the maximum and minimum allocations. This final 
rule makes one adjustment to the proposed $25,000 funding minimum. PHAs 
with less than 50 units are capped at $500 per unit. HUD is following 
this approach to prevent the unfairness of a small number of eligible 
PHAs being awarded up to $2,000 per unit under a $25,000 minimum.

Formula Funding and Performance Measures

    Comment: There were numerous comments on performance measures and 
what their impact should be on formula funding: the formula should be 
flexible to allow for an increase in funding with demonstrated program 
success or innovation; measurable goals should be tailored to the local 
plan and not national in scope; tailoring the program evaluation and 
monitoring to the local level will more accurately measure its success; 
not only reduction of violent crime and drug use should be 
demonstrated, but also prevention should be considered a measurable 
goal; local diversity in PHDEP programs should be supported instead of 
a mandated set of criteria established in Washington; highly effective 
drug elimination and prevention programs may achieve crime levels so 
low that they cannot demonstrate further reductions from year to year--
they might instead be asked to show that their program has reduced the 
overall level of violent crime and drug use in public housing to below 
the level of the surrounding community; HUD should include prevention 
activities in ``measurable goals'' even though we recognize the 
difficulty in quantifying them short term.
    HUD response: The issue of increasing funding for demonstrated 
success or innovation raises practical difficulties, and ties in with 
the issue of performance measures. HUD agrees that the use of crime 
rates alone is not the most reliable or effective measure of a 
grantee's performance. HUD is also aware that reporting and analysis of 
crime rates lag behind the implementation of program activities, and 
such data may not reflect current conditions. A rise or fall in crime 
rates is also not an absolute measure of success or failure, as one can 
argue that successful implementation of activities may not have caused 
a decline in the crime rate, but did result in a less steep increase.
    A more reliable indicator of performance results from an 
examination of both crime rates and implementation performance--the 
extent to which a grantee performs all proposed activities within the 
budget and timetable included in its approved Drug Elimination Program 
(DEP) plan. HUD will compare a grantee's implementation performance to 
the crime rates reported by the grantee to see if valid patterns of 
correspondence are present or can be developed, such as a good 
implementation performance corresponding to a decrease in crime rates, 
and a poor implementation performance corresponding to increased crime 
rates. Even though such a correspondence will not always be the case, 
this comparison would provide valuable information to improve the DEP 
program and measure a grantee's performance. Good implementation 
performance and reduced crime rates would tend to identify successful 
best practices and activities. Good implementation performance but 
increased crime rates would require additional analysis to determine if 
the chosen activities are not effective or appropriate to a grantee's 
particular circumstances. Poor performance and increased crime rates 
would indicate a category of grantees that would require the most 
immediate and highest level of increased attention and technical 
assistance. Poor performance and decreasing crime rates would identify 
a second tier of attention and assistance, but would also call into 
question the necessity of continued funding.
    Any record of performance on this basis would have to be considered 
and analyzed over a period of several funding cycles before it could 
identify factors that would validly serve for adjusting funding levels. 
HUD believes, however, that such factors will emerge, and they will be 
the subject of future rulemaking.

Eligibility for Funding

    Comment: Using ``prior funding status'' as a threshold of 
eligibility does not support a pragmatic needs-based interpretation of 
QHWRA. HUD only considers PHAs who actually received PHDEP funding 
versus all agencies that were eligible (based on need in past years) 
but did not receive funding. Support increasing the threshold to 
include as many agencies as are eligible and for whom funds are 
available.
    HUD response: HUD agrees to expand the ``needs'' category of 
eligible applicants to include those PHAs that applied under the PHDEP 
competitive NOFAs for Fiscal Years (FYs) 1996, 1997, or 1998 and 
received scores above the threshold to qualify for funding (70 points), 
but were not funded because of lack of available funds. The 
participation of this category of PHAs in the complex and difficult 
process of preparing applications under the NOFAs, which would not be 
undertaken but for the urgency of these PHA's need for assistance, and 
the finding that these applications were meritorious, provide a 
sufficient showing to prevent them from being excluded from funding 
under the new process.
    Comment: Several comments suggested additional or different factors 
to consider to determine ``needs'' eligibility for funding: use 
percentage of victimization of residents by Part I and II crimes; 
include assumption that family developments have higher crime rates and 
should receive a higher rate of funding; compare the public housing 
crime rates in each community to the larger community's rate, and 
select PHAs with rates 10% or more higher than the community's; require 
that crime levels within the city in which the PHA is located must 
exceed the state crime levels by 20% and the national crime levels by 
50%; determine whether the PHA has established a self-

[[Page 49902]]

sufficiency program to assist in creating jobs and preventing crime; 
determine whether the PHA has additional unique characteristics (such 
as cultural demographic shifts or additional expenses); look at the 
changes in a community's crime statistics over a given period of time; 
consider that the FBI's violent crime rates are not a highly reliable 
measurement for making funding eligibility distinctions between cities. 
In addition, applicants in the ``preference'' category should be 
eligible for additional funding under the ``needs'' category.
    HUD response: While acknowledging that the FBI statistics used in 
the eligibility determination formula have flaws, HUD also acknowledges 
them to be the only source of verified, nationwide (and therefore 
fairly comparable) data available. As discussed above, this rule 
expands the ``needs'' category of eligible applicants to include 
applicants that would have qualified for funding in FYs 1996, 1997 or 
1998, but were not funded because of the unavailability of funds. HUD 
declines at this time to further refine or complicate the process for 
identifying eligible applicants. HUD believes that the eligible 
applicants included by the funding categories under this rule--the 
previously funded ``preference'' category, and the ``formula'' and 
``previously qualified but not funded'' needs categories--constitute 
virtually every PHA with a serious need for this program funding.

Scope of Activities

    Comment: Supports the expansion of the program scope to include 
violent crime. HUD should also publish a list of eligible activities 
that specifically meet criteria for addressing violent crime.
    HUD response: Although the section 586 of the Public Housing Reform 
Act expanded the scope of PHDEP to specifically include a focus on 
violent crime, HUD has always encouraged grantees to take a broader 
approach to address drug-related crime and related problems under 
PHDEP. The current guidance, accordingly, is broad enough to provide 
initial guidance for addressing violent crime. As HUD and its grantees 
develop their expertise in this specific area, additional guidance will 
be developed.
    Comment: The proposed rule does not take into account the 
additional cost of law enforcement services and accreditation for PHAs 
with their own police departments.
    Those PHAs with police departments need additional funding to 
accredit and maintain this needed resource. Large PHAs spend upwards of 
6 times as much per unit on security than small PHAs.
    HUD response: The rule does not allocate funds on the basis of the 
activities an applicant chooses to undertake. Any funding system 
established on such a basis would soon have to be revised to prevent 
all of the funding from going to the applicants that proposed the most 
costly activities.

Set-asides

    Comment: Several comments opposed the set-aside of funds 
appropriated for PHDEP for other programs, pointing out, for example, 
that set-asides decrease the amount of money available to PHAs who have 
consistently demonstrated need and implemented successful local 
programs.
    HUD response: The Department is required to follow the mandates 
established by Congress, and where legislation directs HUD to use funds 
for a particular purpose, HUD must comply.

Plan Submission

    Comment: Some Moving To Work (MTW) agencies were exempt from the 
Public Housing Assessment System (PHAS) under 24 CFR part 901 and 
submission of a PHA plan--this rule requires a DEP plan to be submitted 
with the Agency plan--need for clarification of process.
    HUD response: While some (not all) MTW agencies are exempt from the 
PHA plan, they must submit an MTW plan that is comparable to the PHA 
Plan. Such agencies should submit the DEP plan required information 
with their MTW plan, and this rule is amended to so provide. HUD will 
also clarify this requirement directly with the affected agencies.

Compliance with MTCS

    Comment: Until HUD fixes its internal (MTCS) data collection and 
reporting problems, HUD should not threaten the funding of agencies, 
which the Department assumes have not correctly submitted their data. 
The requirement that PHAs ``maintain a level of compliance with MTCS 
reporting that is satisfactory to HUD'' is arbitrary and not specific 
enough. It also overlooks the flaws in the MTCS reporting system.
    HUD response: MTCS is a fully functional system. It is HUD's 
primary data system for information on public housing and Section 8 
family characteristics and occupancy events. PHAs are required to 
submit Forms HUD-50058 for every public housing and Section 8 tenant-
based assistance family. HUD issued Notice PIH 99-2 on January 28, 
1999, to clarify the minimum reporting requirements and to establish a 
system of monitoring and technical assistance, semi-annual assessment, 
and formal review and sanctions. Under the Notice, HUD may impose 
sanctions on PHAs that do not meet the minimum 85 percent reporting 
level, which is determined at the semi-annual assessments (following 
the June and December MTCS Delinquency reports). PHAs may request 
forbearance from sanctions in writing. The request must include an 
explanation of why the PHA has not attained the minimum reporting 
level, steps that it plans to take to improve reporting, and monthly 
milestones. PHAs that do not meet the minimum reporting level and do 
not obtain forbearance are subject to sanction. For PHDEP, the relevant 
reporting rate is for public housing only. PHDEP grantees that do not 
meet the minimum reporting level and do not obtain forbearance from 
sanctions are subject to a review of their operations that would affect 
MTCS reporting, as well as sanctions, which may include the PHA's 
inability to draw down grant funds. HUD will work with PHAs to help 
them meet the minimum reporting rate.

Resident Survey

    Comment: Formula funding was intended to reduce the cost incurred 
by agencies for grant writing and data gathering--however, the required 
(resident) survey will increase costs to agencies. Agencies in wide 
geographic areas will have difficulty administering and processing the 
survey. Housing Authorities with 400 or fewer eligible units do not 
have the resources to conduct the required 400-interview resident 
survey. They should be allowed to survey 20-30 percent of their 
population.
    HUD response: HUD will modify the reporting requirement to require 
a percent, rather than an absolute number, that smaller PHAs will be 
responsible for surveying.

Clarification of Unit Count

    Comment: The rule implies that an approved demolition/disposition 
unit is excluded as a source of crime. In fact, the complex process 
that precedes the actual removal of these units from a PHA's 
responsibility can take months. During this time the partially or fully 
vacated buildings are at greater risk.
    HUD response: The final rule clarifies the unit count process by 
specifically stating what units will be counted and by providing that 
units approved for demolition/disposition continue to be counted for 
funding purposes until actual demolition/disposition of the unit.

[[Page 49903]]

Financial Incentive for Consortia

    Comment: Providing a financial incentive only for consortia ignores 
agencies that serve broad geographic areas with diverse population and 
demographic needs.
    HUD response: Because there were no additional comments or 
recommendations pertaining to consortia, this rule makes no changes 
from the proposed rule on this issue.

III. Separate Issues and Funding for NAHASDA Recipients

    The May 12, 1999, proposed rule specifically invited comment on 
separate funding options for NAHASDA recipients, including the 
establishment of a separate funding pool to address the particular 
circumstances of Indian country. As a result, a substantial percentage 
of the comments received on the proposed rule were from Indian Tribes 
or Tribal Organizations. These comments unanimously supported a 
separate pool for Indian Country, stating such an approach was 
warranted because of the differences in PHAs and Indian Country. The 
lack of FBI data on Indian Country, for example, would penalize NAHASDA 
recipients because the formula uses crime statistics to determine 
eligibility for funding.
    The comments include a number of recommendations for administering 
a separate funding pool, including that unit counts should reflect 
current unit counts under the NAHASDA funds plan, including 1937 Act 
units and additional units added to the inventory; that HUD apply the 
requirements in 24 CFR 1000.317 and 1000.327 of the NAHASDA regulations 
to the Indian set-aside; and that NAHASDA recipients should be allowed 
to use Tribal police data, court data, child welfare data, educational 
attainment indicators, or other comparable data when reporting 
activities.
    HUD is conducting an ongoing consultation with the Tribes on the 
particulars of an appropriate DEP funding process and has forwarded 
information on a number of proposals for comment to each Tribe. HUD 
expects to implement a Drug Elimination Program with requirements that 
specifically address Tribal concerns and issues through a rule to be 
published separately in the near future.

IV. Changes in This Final Rule

    As discussed below in this section and in sections II. and III., 
above, of this preamble, only a limited number of changes are made to 
the proposed rule by this final rule, as follows:
    The references to NAHASDA recipients are taken out, except where 
they would be applicable in any subsequent rule, such as retaining the 
definition of ``NAHASDA recipient'' in Sec. 761.10. DEP funding for 
NAHASDA recipients will be added by a separate rule as discussed above 
in section III. of this preamble.
    Section 761.13(a)(1) is amended to include the cap of $500 per unit 
for PHAs with less than 50 units and to specifically state what units 
are counted, including providing that units approved for demolition/
disposition continue to be counted for funding purposes until actual 
demolition/disposition of the unit.
    Section 761.13(a)(3) is amended to make explicit the link between 
funding adjustments and sanctions by adding language that funding and 
meeting performance requirements are subject to the existing sanctions 
in Sec. 761.30(f).
    Section 761.15(a)(3) is amended to include the new needs funding 
category of PHAs that submitted FY 1996, 1997 or 1998 applications that 
qualified for funding but were not funded because of the unavailability 
of funds.
    Section 761.15(a)(5) is amended to require MTW agencies to submit 
the DEP plan required information with their MTW plan.

V. Distribution of FY 1999 PHDEP Funding and List of PHAs Eligible 
for Funding

    The following tables lists all of the PHAs determined to be 
currently eligible for PHDEP funding in accordance with this final 
rule. The third column, ``Eligibility,'' gives the basis on which the 
PHA is eligible for funding. A designation of ``N1'' in the first 
column means the PHA was designated eligible on the basis of need as 
determined under the formula in Sec. 761.15(a)(3). A designation of 
``N2'' means the PHA is eligible on the basis of need as a PHA that 
qualified for funding under FYs 1996, 1997 or 1998, but was not funded 
because of the unavailability of funds, in accordance with 
Sec. 761.15(a)(4). A designation of ``R'' means the PHA is eligible for 
funding as a ``preference PHA'' under Sec. 761.15(a)(2).
    An ``X'' in the fourth column, ``Application Received,'' identifies 
PHAs that have submitted their PHDEP applications in response to the 
May 12, 1999, Notice Withdrawing and Reissuing the FY 1999 PHDEP NOFA 
(64 FR 25746). These PHAs are not required to make any additional 
submissions to receive FY 1999 PHDEP funding. Any PHA included in the 
list that has not yet submitted an application in accordance with the 
May 12, 1999 notice must do so within the next 30 days, up to and 
including the effective date of this final rule, or it will not receive 
FY 1999 PHDEP funding.
    The total amount to be distributed is approximately $231,750,000 in 
FY 1999 funding. The amount to be distributed to each listed PHA that 
has applied or will apply within the next 30 days will be computed in 
accordance with the formula in Sec. 761.13 of this final rule.

    3. In Sec. 761.1, the introductory text is revised to read as 
follows:

[[Page 49918]]

involvement and commitment of public housing residents and their 
organizations. To enhance the ability of PHAs to combat drug-related 
and violent crime within their developments, Resident Councils (RCs),

this part, notwithstanding the otherwise applicable requirements of 
part 964 of this title.
    5. In Sec. 761.10, the introductory text is revised, the definition

* * * * *
    6. The heading of subpart B is revised to read as follows:

Subpart B--Grant Funding

    7. A new Sec. 761.13 is added to read as follows:


Sec. 761.13  Amount of funding.

    (a) PHDEP formula funding. (1) Funding share formula. (i) Per unit 
amount. Subject to the availability of funding, the amount of funding 
made available each FFY to an applicant that qualifies for funding in 
accordance with Sec. 761.15(a) is based upon the applicant's share of 
the total number of units of all applicants that qualify for funding, 
with a maximum award of $35 million and a minimum award of $25,000, 
except that qualified applicants with less than 50 units will not 
receive more than $500 per unit.
    (ii) Calculation of number of units. For purposes of determining 
the number of units counted for purposes of the PHDEP formula, HUD 
shall count as one unit each existing rental and Section 23 bond-
financed unit under the ACC. Units that are added to a PHA's inventory 
will be added to the overall unit count so long as the units are under 
ACC amendment and have reached DOFA by the date HUD establishes for the 
Federal Fiscal Year in which the PHDEP formula is being run (hereafter 
called the ``reporting date''). Any such increase in units shall result 
in an adjustment upwards in the number of units under the PHDEP 
formula. New units reaching DOFA after this date will be counted for 
PHDEP formula purposes as of the following Federal Fiscal Year. 
Federalized units that are eligible for operating subsidy will be 
counted for PHDEP formula purposes based on the unit count reflected on 
the PHA's most recently approved Operating Budget (Form HUD-52564) and/
or subsidy calculation (Form HUD-52723), or successor form submitted 
for that program. Units approved for demolition/disposition continue to 
be counted for PHDEP formula funding purposes until actual demolition/
disposition of the unit.
    (2) Consortium funding. The amount of funding made available to a 
consortium will be the total of the amounts that each individual member 
would otherwise qualify to receive under the PHDEP funding formula in 
accordance with paragraph (a)(1) of this section.
    (3) Adjustments to funding. The amount of funding made available 
each FFY to an applicant in accordance with paragraphs (a)(1) and 
(a)(2) of this section may be adjusted as follows:
    (i) An applicant must submit a PHDEP plan that meets the 
requirements of Sec. 761.21, as required by Sec. 761.15(a)(5), each FFY 
year to receive that FFY's funding. An applicant that does not submit a 
PHDEP plan for a FFY as required will not receive that FFY's funding.
    (ii) Ineligible activities, described at Sec. 761.17(b), are not 
eligible for funding. Activities proposed for funding in an applicant's 
PHDEP plan that are determined to be ineligible will not be funded, and 
the applicant's funding for that FFY may be reduced accordingly.
    (iii) In accordance with Sec. 761.15(a)(6), an applicant that does 
not meet the performance requirements of Sec. 761.23 will be subject to 
the sanctions listed in Sec. 761.30(f)(2).
    (iv) Both the amount of and continuing eligibility for funding is 
subject to the sanctions in Sec. 761.30(f).
    (v) Any amounts that become available because of adjustments to an 
applicant's funding will be distributed to every other applicant that 
qualifies for funding in accordance with paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) 
of this section.
    (b) AHDEP funding. Information concerning funding made available 
under AHDEP for a given FFY will be contained in Notices of Funding 
Availability (NOFAs) published in the Federal Register.
    8. Section 761.15 is revised to read as follows:


Sec. 761.15  Qualifying for funding.

    (a) Qualifications for PHDEP funding. (1) Eligible applicants. The 
following are eligible applicants for PHDEP funding:
    (i) A PHA;
    (ii) An RMC; and
    (iii) A consortium of PHAs.
    (2) Preference PHAs. A PHA that successfully competed for PHDEP 
funding under at least one of the PHDEP NOFAs for FFY 1996, FFY 1997 or 
FFY 1998 qualifies to receive PHDEP funding.
    (3) Needs qualification for funding. An eligible applicant that 
does not qualify to receive PHDEP funding under paragraph (a)(2) of 
this section must be in one of the following needs categories to 
qualify for funding:
    (i) The eligible applicant must be in the top 50% of the unit-
weighted distribution of an index of a rolling average rate of violent 
crimes of the community, as computed for each Federal Fiscal Year 
(FFY). The crime rate used in this needs determination formula is the 
rate, from the most recent years feasible, of FBI violent crimes per 
10,000 residents of the community (or communities). If this information 
is not available for a particular applicant's community, HUD will use 
the average of data from recipients of a comparable State and size 
category of PHA (less than 500 units, 500 to 1249 units, and more than 
1250 units). If fewer than five PHAs have data for a given size 
category within a State, then the average of PHAs for a given size 
category within the census region will be used; or
    (ii) The eligible applicant must have qualified for PHDEP funding, 
by receiving an application score of 70 or more points under any one of 
the PHDEP NOFAs for FFY 1996, FFY 1997 or FFY 1998, but not have 
received an award because of the unavailability of funds.

[[Page 49919]]

    (4) Consortium of eligible applicants. Eligible applicants may join 
together and form a consortium to apply for funding, whether or not 
each member would individually qualify for PHDEP funding under 
paragraphs (a)(2) or (a)(3) of this section. The act of two or more 
eligible applicants joining together to form a consortium, and 
identifying related crime problems and eligible activities to address 
those problems pursuant to a consortium PHDEP plan, qualifies the 
consortium for PHDEP funding of an amount as determined under 
Sec. 761.13(a)(2).
    (5) PHDEP plan requirement. (i) PHAs. Except as provided in 
paragraph (a)(5)(ii), below, of this section, to receive PHDEP funding, 
a PHA that qualifies to receive PHDEP funding for Federal Fiscal Year 
2000 and beyond must include a PHDEP plan that meets the requirements 
of Sec. 761.21 with its PHA Plan submitted pursuant to part 903 of this 
title for each Federal Fiscal Year for which it qualifies for funding.
    (ii) To receive PHDEP funding, a PHA that qualifies to receive 
PHDEP funding and is operating under an executed Moving To Work (MTW) 
agreement with HUD must submit a PHDEP plan that meets the requirements 
of Sec. 761.21 with its required MTW plan for each Federal Fiscal Year 
for which it qualifies for funding.
    (iii) RMCs. To receive PHDEP funding, an RMC operating in an PHA 
that qualifies to receive PHDEP funding must submit a PHDEP plan for 
the units managed by the RMC that meets the requirements of Sec. 761.21 
to its PHA. Upon agreement between the RMC and PHA, the PHA must submit 
to HUD, with its PHA Plan submitted pursuant to part 903 of this title, 
the RMC's PHDEP plan. The RMC will implement its plan as a subrecipient 
of the PHA.
    (iv) Consortia. To receive PHDEP funding, the consortium members 
must prepare and submit a consortium PHDEP plan that meets the 
requirements of Sec. 761.21, including the additional requirements that 
apply to consortia. Each member must submit the consortium plan with 
its PHA plan, submitted pursuant to part 903 of this title, or IHP, 
submitted pursuant to subpart C of part 1000 of this title, as 
appropriate.
    (6) An otherwise qualified recipient PHA, RMC or consortium may not 
be funded if HUD determines, on a case-by-case basis, that it does not 
meet the performance requirements of Sec. 761.23.
    (b) Qualifications for AHDEP funding. Under AHDEP, eligible 
applicants are owners of federally assisted low-income housing, as the 
term Federally assisted low-income housing is defined in Sec. 761.10. 
Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs) published in the Federal 
Register will contain specific information concerning funding 
requirements and eligible and ineligible applicants and activities.
    9. A new Sec. 761.17 is added to subpart B to read as follows:


Sec. 761.17  Eligible and ineligible activities for funding.

    (a) Eligible activities. One or more of the eligible activities 
described in 42 U.S.C. 11903 and in this Sec. 761.17(a) are eligible 
for funding under PHDEP or AHDEP, as further explained or limited in 
paragraph (b) of this section and, for AHDEP, in separate annual 
Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs). All personnel funded by these 
programs in accordance with an eligible activity must meet, and 
demonstrate compliance with, all relevant Federal, State, tribal, or 
local government insurance, licensing, certification, training, 
bonding, or other similar law enforcement requirements.
    (1) Employment of security personnel, as provided in 42 U.S.C. 
11903(a)(1), with the following additional requirements:
    (i) Security guard personnel. (A) Contract security personnel 
funded by this program must perform services not usually performed by 
local law enforcement agencies on a routine basis. The applicant must 
identify the baseline services provided by the local law enforcement 
agency.
    (B) The applicant, the provider (contractor) of the security 
personnel and, only if the local law enforcement agency is receiving 
any PHDEP funds from the applicant, the local law enforcement agency, 
are required, as a part of the security personnel contract, to enter 
into and execute a written agreement that describes the following:
    (1) The activities to be performed by the security personnel, their 
scope of authority, and how they will coordinate their activities with 
the local law enforcement agency;
    (2) The types of activities that the security personnel are 
expressly prohibited from undertaking.
    (ii) Employment of HA police. (A) If additional HA police are to be 
employed for a service that is also provided by a local law enforcement 
agency, the applicant must undertake and retain a cost analysis that 
demonstrates the employment of HA police is more cost efficient than 
obtaining the service from the local law enforcement agency.
    (B) Additional HA police services to be funded under this program 
must be over and above those that the existing HA police, if any, 
provides, and the tribal, State or local government is contractually 
obligated to provide under its Cooperation Agreement with the applying 
HA (as required by the HA's Annual Contributions Contract). An 
applicant seeking funding for this activity must first establish a 
baseline by describing the current level of services provided by both 
the local law enforcement agency and the HA police, if any (in terms of 
the kinds of services provided, the number of officers and equipment 
and the actual percent of their time assigned to the developments 
proposed for funding), and then demonstrate that the funded activity 
will represent an increase over this baseline.
    (C) If the local law enforcement agency is receiving any PHDEP 
funds from the applicant, the applicant and the local law enforcement 
agency are required to enter into and execute a written agreement that 
describes the following:
    (1) The activities to be performed by the HA police, their scope of 
authority, and how they will coordinate their activities with the local 
law enforcement agency;
    (2) The types of activities that the HA police are expressly 
prohibited from undertaking.
    (2) Reimbursement of local law enforcement agencies for additional 
security and protective services, as provided in 42 U.S.C. 11903(a)(2), 
with the following additional requirements:
    (i) Additional security and protective services to be funded must 
be over and above those that the tribal, State, or local government is 
contractually obligated to provide under its Cooperation Agreement with 
the applying HA (as required by the HA's Annual Contributions 
Contract). An application seeking funding for this activity must first 
establish a baseline by describing the current level of services (in 
terms of the kinds of services provided, the number of officers and 
equipment, and the actual percent of their time assigned to the 
developments proposed for funding) and then demonstrate that the funded 
activity will represent an increase over this baseline.
    (ii) Communications and security equipment to improve the 
collection, analysis, and use of information about drug-related or 
violent criminal activities in a public housing community may be 
eligible items if used exclusively in connection with the establishment 
of a law enforcement substation on the funded premises or scattered 
site developments of the applicant. Funds for activities under this 
section may not be drawn until the

[[Page 49920]]

grantee has executed a contract for the additional law enforcement 
services.
    (3) Physical improvements to enhance security, as provided in 42 
U.S.C. 11903(a)(3). For purposes of PHDEP, the following provisions in 
paragraphs (a)(3)(i) through (a)(3)(iv) of this section apply:
    (i) An activity that is funded under any other HUD program shall 
not also be funded by this program.
    (ii) Funding is not permitted for physical improvements that 
involve the demolition of any units in a development.
    (iii) Funding is not permitted for any physical improvements that 
would result in the displacement of persons.
    (iv) Funding is not permitted for the acquisition of real property.
    (4) Employment of investigating individuals, as provided in 42 
U.S.C. 11903(a)(4). For purposes of PHDEP, the following provisions in 
paragraphs (a)(4)(i) and (a)(4)(ii) of this section apply:
    (i) If one or more investigators are to be employed for a service 
that is also provided by a local law enforcement agency, the applicant 
must undertake and retain a cost analysis that demonstrates the 
employment of investigators is more cost efficient than obtaining the 
service from the local law enforcement agency.
    (ii) The applicant, the investigator(s) and, only if the local law 
enforcement agency is receiving any PHDEP funds from the applicant, the 
local law enforcement agency, are required, before any investigators 
are employed, to enter into and execute a written agreement that 
describes the following:
    (A) The nature of the activities to be performed by the 
investigators, their scope of authority, and how they will coordinate 
their activities with the local law enforcement agency;
    (B) The types of activities that the investigators are expressly 
prohibited from undertaking.
    (5) Voluntary tenant patrols, as provided in 42 U.S.C. 11903(a)(5).

through (a)(5)(iv) of this section apply:
    (i) The provision of training, communications equipment, and other 
related equipment (including uniforms), for use by voluntary tenant 
patrols acting in cooperation with officials of local law enforcement 
agencies is permitted. Grantees are required to obtain liability 
insurance to protect themselves and the members of the voluntary tenant 
patrol against potential liability for the activities of the patrol. 
The cost of this insurance will be considered an eligible program 
expense.
    (ii) The applicant, the members of the tenant patrol and, only if 
the local law enforcement agency is receiving any PHDEP funds from the 
applicant, the local law enforcement agency, are required, before 
putting the tenant patrol into effect, to enter into and execute a 
written agreement that describes the following:
    (A) The nature of the activities to be performed by the tenant 
patrol, the patrol's scope of authority, and how the patrol will 
coordinate its activities with the local law enforcement agency;
    (B) The types of activities that a tenant patrol is expressly 
prohibited from undertaking, to include but not limited to, the 
carrying or use of firearms or other weapons, nightsticks, clubs, 
handcuffs, or mace in the course of their duties under this program;
    (C) The type of initial tenant patrol training and continuing 
training the members receive from the local law enforcement agency 
(training by the local law enforcement agency is required before 
putting the tenant patrol into effect).
    (iii) Tenant patrol members must be advised that they may be 
subject to individual or collective liability for any actions 
undertaken outside the scope of their authority and that such acts are 
not covered under a HA's or RMC's liability insurance.
    (iv) Grant funds may not be used for any type of financial 
compensation for voluntary tenant patrol participants. However, the use 
of program funds for a grant coordinator for volunteer tenant foot 
patrols is permitted.

provided in 42 U.S.C. 11903(a)(6).
    (7) Funding resident management corporations (RMCs), resident 
councils (RCs), and resident organizations (ROs). For purposes of the 
Public Housing Program, funding may be provided for PHAs that receive 
grants to contract with RMCs and incorporated RCs and ROs to develop 
security and drug abuse prevention programs involving site residents, 
as provided in 42 U.S.C. 11903(a)(7).
    (8) Youth sports. Sports programs and sports activities that serve 
primarily youths from public or other federally assisted low-income 
housing projects and are operated in conjunction with, or in 
furtherance of, an organized program or plan designed to reduce or 
eliminate drugs and drug-related problems in and around such projects, 
as provided in 42 U.S.C. 11903(a)(8).
    (9) Eliminating drug-related and violent crime in PHA-owned 
housing, under the Public Housing Program, as provided in 42 U.S.C. 
11903(b).
    (b) Ineligible activities. For purposes of PHDEP, funding is not 
permitted:
    (1) For activities not included under paragraph (a) of this 
section;
    (2) For costs incurred before the effective date of the grant 
agreement;
    (3) For the costs related to screening or evicting residents for 
drug-related crime. However, investigators funded under this program 
may participate in judicial and administrative proceedings;
    (4) For previously funded activities determined by HUD on a case-
by-case basis to be unworthy of continuation.
    10. Section 761.20 is revised to read as follows:


Sec. 761.20  Selection requirements.

    (a) PHDEP selection. Every PHA, RMC and consortium that meets the 
requirements of Sec. 761.15 in a FFY will be selected for funding in 
that FFY and, subject to meeting the performance requirements of 
Sec. 761.23, for four additional FFYs.
    (b) AHDEP selection. HUD will publish specific Notices of Funding 
Availability (NOFAs) in the Federal Register to inform the public of 
the availability of AHDEP grant amounts under this part 761. The NOFAs 
will provide specific guidance with respect to the grant process, 
including identifying the eligible applicants; deadlines for the 
submission of grant applications; the limits (if any) on maximum grant 
amounts; the information that must be submitted to permit HUD to score 
each of the selection criteria; the maximum number of points to be 
awarded for each selection criterion; the contents of the plan for 
addressing drug-related and violent crime that must be included with 
the application; the listing of any certifications and assurances that 
must be submitted with the application; and the process for ranking and 
selecting applicants. NOFAs will also include any additional 
information, factors, and requirements that HUD has determined to be 
necessary and appropriate to provide for the implementation and 
administration of AHDEP under this part 761.
    11. A new Sec. 761.21 is added to read as follows:


Sec. 761.21  Plan requirement.

    (a) General requirement. To receive funding under this part, each 
PHDEP qualified recipient or AHDEP applicant must submit to HUD, for 
Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2000 and each following FFY, a plan for 
addressing the problem of drug-related and violent crime in and around 
the housing covered by the plan. If the plan covers more than one 
development, it does not have to

[[Page 49921]]

address each development separately if the same activities will apply 
to each development. The plan must address each development separately 
only where program activities will differ from one development to 
another. The plan must include a description of the planned activity or 
activities, a description of the role of plan partners and their 
contributions to carrying out the plan, a budget and timetable for 
implementation of the activities, and the funding source for each 
activity, identifying in particular all activities to be funded under 
this part. In addition, the plan must set measurable performance goals 
and interim milestones for the PHDEP-supported activities and describe 
the system for monitoring and evaluating these activities. Measurable 
goals must be established for each category of funded activities, 
including drug prevention, drug intervention, drug treatment, tenant 
patrols, and physical improvements. The plan under this section serves 
as the application for PHDEP funding, and an otherwise qualified 
recipient that does not submit a PHDEP plan as required will not be 
funded. For AHDEP funding, NOFAs published in the Federal Register may 
provide additional information on plan requirements for purposes of 
this section. Plans must meet the requirements of this section before 
grant funds are distributed. HUD will review the submitted plans for a 
determination of whether they meet the requirements of this section.
    (b) Additional requirements for consortia. In addition to meeting 
the requirements of paragraph (a) of this section, to receive funding 
under this part, a consortium's plan must include a copy of the 
consortium agreement between the PHAs which are participating in the 
consortium, and a copy of the payment agreement between the consortium 
and HUD.
    12. A new Sec. 761.23 is added to read as follows:


Sec. 761.23  Grantee performance requirements.

    (a) Basic grantee requirements. (1) Compliance with civil rights 
requirements. Grantees must be in compliance with all fair housing and 
civil rights laws, statutes, regulations, and executive orders as 
enumerated in 24 CFR 5.105(a). Federally recognized Indian tribes must 
comply with the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 and the Indian Civil 
Rights Act.
    (2) Adherence to the grant agreement. The grant agreement between 
HUD and the grantee incorporates the grantee's application and plan for 
the implementation of grant-funded activities.
    (3) Compliance with ``baseline'' funding requirement. Grantees may 
not use grant funds to reimburse law enforcement agencies for 
``baseline'' community safety services. Grantees must adhere to 
Sec. 761.17(a)(2)(i), reimbursement of local law enforcement agencies 
for additional security and protective services. In addition, grantees 
must provide to HUD a description of the baseline of services for the 
unit of general local government in which the jurisdiction of the 
agency is located.
    (4) Partnerships. Grantees must provide HUD with evidence of 
partnerships--in particular, firm commitments by organizations 
providing funding, services, or other in-kind resources for PHDEP-
funded activities (e.g., memorandum of agreement, letter of firm 
commitment). The partnership agreement must cover the applicable 
funding period.
    (5) MTCS reporting. Grantees must maintain a level of compliance 
with MTCS reporting requirements that is satisfactory to HUD.
    (b) Planning and reporting requirements. (1) Planning consistency. 
PHDEP funded activities must be consistent with the most recent HUD-
approved PHA Plan or Indian Housing Plan, as appropriate. AHDEP funded 
activities must be consistent with the most recent Consolidated Plan 
under part 91 of this title for the community.
    (2) Demonstration of coordination with other law enforcement 
efforts. Each grantee must consult with local law enforcement 
authorities and other local entities in the preparation of its plan for 
addressing the problem of drug-related and violent crime under 
Sec. 761.21 and must maintain documentation of such consultation. 
Furthermore, a grantee must coordinate its grant-funded activities with 
other anti-crime and anti-drug programs, such as Operation Safe Home, 
Operation Weed and Seed, and the Safe Neighborhoods Action Program 
operating in the community, if applicable and maintain documentation of 
such coordination.
    (3) Compliance with reporting requirements. Grantees must provide 
periodic reports consistent with this part at such times and in such 
form as is required by HUD.
    (4) Reporting on drug-related and violent crime. Grantees must 
report any change or lack of change in crime statistics--especially 
drug-related crime and violent crime--or other relevant indicators 
drawn from the applicant's or grantee's evaluation and monitoring plan, 
IHP or PHA Plan. The grantee must also indicate, if applicable, how it 
is adequately addressing any recommendations emanating from other anti-
crime and anti-drug programs, such as Operation Safe Home, Operation 
Weed and Seed, and the Safe Neighborhoods Action Program, operating in 
the community and is taking appropriate actions, in view of available 
resources, such as post-enforcement measures, to take full advantage of 
these programs.
    (c) Funding and evaluation requirements. (1) Timely obligation and 
expenditure of grant funds. The HA must obligate and expend funds in 
compliance with all funding notifications, regulations, notices, and 
grant agreements. In addition, the HA must obligate at least 50 percent 
of funds under a particular grant within 12 months of the execution of 
the grant agreement, and must expend at least 25 percent of funds under 
a particular grant within 12 months of the execution of the grant 
agreement.
    (2) Operational monitoring and evaluation system. The grantee must 
demonstrate that it has a fully operational system for monitoring and 
evaluating its grant-funded activities. A monitoring and evaluation 
system must collect quantitative evidence of the number of persons and 
units served, including youth served as a separate category, types of 
services provided, and the impact of such services on the persons 
served. Also, the monitoring and evaluation system must collect 
quantitative and qualitative evidence of the impact of grant-funded 
activities on the public housing or other housing, the community and 
the surrounding neighborhood.
    (3) Reduction of violent crime and drug use. The grantee must 
demonstrate that it has established, and is attaining, measurable goals 
including the overall reduction of violent crime and drug use.
    (d) Other requirements. HUD reserves the right to add additional 
performance factors consistent with this rule and other related 
statutes and regulations on a case-by-case basis.
    (e) Sanctions. A grantee that fails to satisfy the performance 
requirements of this section will be subject to the sanctions listed in 
Sec. 761.30(f)(2).
    13. In Sec. 761.40, paragraphs (f) and (g) are revised to read as 
follows:


Sec. 761.40  Other Federal requirements.

* * * * *
    (f) Intergovernmental Review. The requirements of Executive Order 
12372 (3 CFR, 1982 Comp., p. 197) and the regulations issued under the 
Order in part 52 of this title, to the extent provided by Federal 
Register notice in

[[Page 49922]]

accordance with 24 CFR 52.3, apply to these programs.
    (g) Environmental review. Certain eligible activities under this 
part 761 are categorically excluded from review under the National 
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321) and are not subject 
to review under related laws, in accordance with 24 CFR 50.19(b)(4), 
(b)(12), or (b)(13). If the PHDEP plan proposes the use of grant funds 
to assist any non-exempt activities, HUD will perform an environmental 
review to the extent required by 24 CFR part 50, prior to grant award.
