rehabilitation needs in the MFH survey conducted in October 2002.

for equity loan requests currently on the pending funding list and $1 
million to facilitate the transfer of properties from for-profit owners 
to nonprofit corporations and public bodies. Funds for such transfers 
would be authorized only for for-profit owners who are currently on the 
pending funding list who agree to transfer to nonprofit corporations or 
public bodies rather than to remain on the pending list. If 
insufficient transfer requests are generated to utilize the full $1 
million set aside for nonprofit and public body transfers, the balance 
will revert to the existing pending equity loan funding list.
    G. General Reserve. There is one general reserve fund of 
$25,000,000. Some examples of immediate allowable uses include, but are 
not limited to, hardships and emergencies, RH cooperatives or group

result of a major disaster declared by the President. Section 766, 
Title III of the 2003 Appropriations Act provides that ``after
