ANNOUNCEMENT 2
Subject: ENERGY/Efficiency - PR. DOE/Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. Weatherization Assistance Program for Low-Income Persons
[Federal Register: May 21, 2009 (Volume 74, Number 97)]
[Proposed Rules]

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
10 CFR Part 440
[Docket No. EEWAP0515]
RIN 1904-AB-97
Weatherization Assistance Program for Low-Income Persons
AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of
Energy.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking, request for comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to amend the
eligibility provisions applicable to multi-unit buildings under the
Weatherization Assistance Program for Low-Income Persons. As proposed,
if a multi-unit building is under an assisted or public housing program
and is identified by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD), and included on a list published by DOE, that
building would meet certain income eligibility requirements, and the
procedural requirements to protect against rent increases and undue
enhancement of the weatherized building would be satisfied, under the
Weatherization Assistance Program without the need for further
evaluation or verification. If a multi-unit building includes units
that participate in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program,
identified by HUD, and included on a list published by DOE, that
building would meet the income eligibility requirements of the
Weatherization Assistance Program without the need for further
evaluation or verification. DOE believes that the proposed rule would
reduce the procedural burdens on evaluating applications from buildings
that are part of HUD assisted and public housing programs, and the
Federal low-income housing tax credit programs.
DATES: Public comments on this proposed rule will be accepted until
June 22, 2009.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by the RIN number
specified in the heading of this notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR),
