§ 221.11 - Relocation assistance.

Relocation assistance will be provided to all displaced persons pursuant to 49 CFR part 24, subpart C. Additional requirements and considerations are:

(a) Those eligible for permanent relocation assistance may be required to vacate their property immediately to a temporary location because of the danger continued occupancy may pose to the health and safety of the occupants or the public.

(b) Pursuant to the requirements of Executive Order 11988 and 44 CFR part 9, persons displaced by a CERCLA action will not be relocated to areas in a floodplain unless there are not practicable alternative housing sites.

(c) Persons displaced by a CERCLA action and who permanently relocate to an area of special hazard (as defined in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, Pub. L. 93-234) will not be eligible for Federal financial assistance for acquisition or construction purposes (pursuant to section 102(a) of the Act) if they do not purchase flood insurance.

(d) Persons displaced are not eligible for assistance to relocate to special flood hazard areas of communities which do not participate in the Flood Insurance Program.
