Housing Assistance for Native Hawaiians: Native Hawaiian Housing 
Block Grant Program and Loan Guarantees for Native Hawaiian Housing; 
Correction

AGENCY: Office of the General Counsel, HUD.

ACTION: Interim rule, correction.

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

SUMMARY: On June 13, 2002, HUD published an interim rule to implement 
HUD's Office of Public and Indian Housing (PIH) procedures and 
requirements for two new programs to address the housing needs of 
Native Hawaiians. The preamble did not include the Federalism finding 
that was made for the rule. This notice provides that information.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sherone Ivey, Office of Native 
American Programs, Office of Public and Indian Housing, Department of 
Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 
20410, telephone (202) 401-7914. Persons with hearing or speech 
impairments may access this number via TTY by calling the toll-free 
Federal Information Relay Service at 1-800-877-8339.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HUD published an interim rule on June 13, 
2000 (67 FR 40774) that established two new programs to provide 
affordable housing for Native Hawaiians. The Native Hawaiian Housing 
Block Grant Program will provide housing block grants to fund 
affordable housing activities. The Section 184A Loan Guarantees for 
Native Hawaiian Housing Program will provide Native Hawaiian families 
with greater access to private mortgage resources by guaranteeing loans 
for one- to four-family housing located on Hawaiian Home Lands. The 
preamble of the interim rule inadvertently omitted publication of the 
finding under Executive Order 13132, Federalism, that was made for the 
rule. This notice published today provides that information as follows:

Executive Order 13132, Federalism

    Executive Order 13132 (entitled ``Federalism'') prohibits an agency 
from publishing any rule that has federalism implications if the rule 
either (1) imposes substantial direct compliance costs on State and 
local governments and is not required by statute, or (2) the rule 
preempts State law, unless the agency meets the consultation and 
funding requirements of section 6 of the Executive Order. This rule 
does not have federalism implications and does not impose substantial 
direct compliance costs on State and local governments or preempt State 
law within the meaning of the Executive Order.

    Dated June 17, 2002.
Camille E. Acevedo,
Associate General Counsel for Legislation and Regulations.
