SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On October 28, 2002 (67 FR 65864), HUD published an interim rule 
establishing the eligibility of units owned or substantially controlled 
by a public housing agency (PHA) for purchase under the Housing Choice 
Voucher Program homeownership option. The interim rule, which will 
become effective on November 27, 2002, inadvertently provided an 
incorrect designation for the paragraph being added to the voucher 
program regulations. Specifically, the interim rule provides that a new 
paragraph (c) is being added to Sec.  982.628. The correct designation 
is Sec.  982.628(d). This document makes the necessary technical 
correction to the October 28, 2002 interim rule.

PART 982--[CORRECTED]

    Accordingly, the interim rule FR Doc. 02-27310, published on 
October 28, 2002, (67 FR 65864) is corrected as follows:
    1. On page 65865, in the third column, correct amendatory 
instruction 2. and the paragraph heading to read as follows:

    2. Add Sec.  982.628(d) to read as follows:


Sec.  982. 628  Homeownership option: Eligible units.

* * * * *
    (d) PHA-owned units. * * *
* * * * *

    Dated: October 31, 2002.
