    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of the HOPWA program is to 
    provide States and localities with the resources and incentives to 
    devise long-term comprehensive strategies for meeting the housing needs 
    of low-income persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families.
        The assistance made available for this program is authorized by the 
    AIDS Housing Opportunity Act (42 U.S.C. 12901), as amended by the 
    Housing and Community Development Act of 1992 (Public Law 102-550, 
    approved October 28, 1992) and was appropriated by the HUD 
    Appropriations Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 103-327, approved September 28, 
    1994), as amended by Pub. L. 104-19, approved July 27, 1995. The 
    original allocation to 66 jurisdictions was announced in a Notice of 
    fiscal year 1995 Consolidated Formula Allocations for Community 
    Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), 
    Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG), and Housing Opportunities for Persons 
    with AIDS (HOPWA) Programs published in the Federal Register on January 
    25, 1995 (60 FR 5010).
        At the beginning of Fiscal Year 1995, a total of $167,400,000 was 
    allocated to 66 jurisdictions based on the original appropriation. The 
    HOPWA program is required to allocate ninety percent of program funds 
    based on a statutory formula which uses the reported number and 
    incidence of cases of AIDS in a community. The reduction of $13,500,000 
    in the FY 1995 formula allocations represents ninety percent of 
    $15,000,000 which was rescinded from the original appropriation. The 
    other ten percent of program funds is awarded by competition; in fiscal 
    year 1995, $1,500,000 of competitive funds originally available were 
    rescinded and therefore not awarded under the 1995 HOPWA competition 
    pursuant to a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) published in the 
    Federal Register on February 16, 1995 (60 FR 9260). The announcement of 
    awards under that NOFA was published in the Federal Register on October 
    30, 1995 (60 FR 55277).
        Based on the revised appropriation for the program of $171,000,000, 
    the revised formula provides a total of $153,900,000 in this notice. 
    The following revised allocations for each of the 66 formula grants are 
    a reduction of approximately 8.1 percent each:
