EFFECTIVE DATE: December 4, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 12, 1996 (61 FR 41936), HUD 
published in the Federal Register a Notice of Funding Availability 
(NOFA) for Technical Assistance for the John Heinz Neighborhood 
Development Program. The NOFA announced the availability of $132,978 
for Fiscal Year 1996 under the John Heinz Neighborhood Development 
Program, to eligible technical assistance providers to provide 
technical assistance to eligible neighborhood development 
organizations.
    HUD was unable to select a technical assistance provider from the 
14 applications received due to the fact that the applicants were 
either: (1) ineligible applicants; (2) applicants that did not propose 
to provide technical assistance to eligible neighborhood-based 
organizations; (3) applicants that proposed to serve only a single 
geographic area; or (4) applicants that did not respond to the Factors 
for Award.
    Therefore, no award/awards were made under the August 12, 1996 
NOFA.

    Dated: November 27, 1996.
Andrew Cuomo,
Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development.
