SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3 of the Housing and Urban 
Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701u), as amended, and the 
implementing regulation at 24 CFR part 135 ensures that employment, 
training, and contracting opportunities generated by certain HUD 
financial assistance shall, to the greatest extent feasible, and 
consistent with existing Federal, State and local laws and regulations, 
be directed to low- and very low income persons, particularly those who 
are recipients of government assistance for housing, and to businesses 
that provide economic opportunities to low- and very low-income 
persons.
    The Department published the Section 3 Coordination and 
Implementation Notice of Funding Availability (Section 3 NOFA) on June 
7, 2011 announcing the availability of approximately $600,000 out of 
the Department's FY 2010 appropriation, to be utilized to help agencies 
that receive covered HUD funding build their capacity to meet the 
regulatory requirements of Section 3 by providing funds for the salary, 
fringe benefits, and other expenses associated with hiring one full-
time Section 3 Coordinator for one year. Funding availability for 
discretionary grants included: Approximately 12 qualified applicants to 
receive awards of $50,000 via a lottery by region. Accordingly, HUD was 
able to fund at least one application within each of its ten regional 
offices. This Notice announces grant awards of approximately $600,000 
to 12 grantees.
    For the FY 2010 NOFA, the Department reviewed, evaluated and scored 
the applications received based on the criteria in the FY 2010 NOFA. As 
a result, HUD has funded the applications announced in Appendix A, and 
in accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of Housing 
and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (103 Stat. 1987, 42 U.S.C.
