agencies regarding unutilized and underutilized buildings and real 
property controlled

[[Page 72097]]

by such agencies or by GSA regarding its inventory of excess or surplus 
Federal property. This Notice is also published in order to comply with 
the December 12, 1988 Court Order in National Coalition for the 
Homeless v. Veterans Administration, No. 88-2503-OG (D.D.C.).

    Properties reviewed are listed in this Notice according to the 
following categories: Suitable/available, suitable/unavailable, 
suitable/to be excess, and unsuitable. The properties listed in the 
three suitable categories have been reviewed by the landholding 
agencies, and each agency has transmitted to HUD: (1) Its intention to 
make the property available for use to assist the homeless, (2) Its 
intention to declare the property excess to the agency's needs, or (3) 
A statement of the reasons that the property cannot be declared excess 
or made available for use as facilities to assist the homeless.
    Properties listed as suitable/available will be available 
exclusively for homeless use for a period of 60 days from the date of 
this Notice. Homeless assistance providers interested in any such 
property should send a written expression of interest to HHS, addressed 
to Brian Rooney, Division of Property Management, Program Support 
Center, HHS, room 5B-41, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857; (301) 
443-2265. (This is not a toll-free number.) HHS will mail to the 
interested provider an application packet, which will include 
instructions for completing the application. In order to maximize the 
opportunity to utilize a suitable property, providers should submit 
their written expressions of interest as soon as possible. For complete 
details concerning the processing of applications, the reader is 
encouraged to refer to the interim rule governing this program, 24 CFR 
part 581.
    For properties listed as suitable/to be excess, that property may, 
if subsequently accepted as excess by GSA, be made available for use by 
the homeless in accordance with applicable law, subject to screening 
for other Federal use. At the appropriate time, HUD will publish the 
property in a Notice showing it as either suitable/available or 
suitable/unavailable.
    For properties listed as suitable/unavailable, the landholding 
agency has decided that the property cannot be declared excess or made 
available for use to assist the homeless, and the property will not be 
available.
    Properties listed as unsuitable will not be made available for any 
other purpose for 20 days from the date of this Notice. Homeless 
assistance providers interested in a review by HUD of the determination 
of unsuitability should call the toll free information line at 1-800-
927-7588 for detailed instructions or write a letter to Clifford Taffet 
at the address listed at the beginning of this Notice. Included in the 
request for review should be the property address (including zip code), 
the date of publication in the Federal Register, the landholding 
agency, and the property number.
    For more information regarding particular properties identified in 
this Notice (i.e., acreage, floor plan, existing sanitary facilities, 
exact street address), providers should contact the appropriate 
landholding agencies at the following addresses: GSA: Mr. Brian K. 
Polly, Assistant Commissioner, General Services Administration, Office 
of Property Disposal, 18th and F Streets, NW, Washington, DC 20405;
