SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On March 25, 1999, 64 FR 14572, HUD published an interim rule
revising the warranty requirements applicable to high-ratio FHA-insured
single family mortgages on new homes. Two errors in the preamble for
that interim rule need correction. In explaining the meaning of ``new
construction'' or ``new home'', we inadvertently omitted a ``not''. In
footnote 1, we provided an Internet address that cannot be accessed by
non-HUD servers.
Accordingly, FR Doc. 99-7345, Builder Warranty for High-Ratio FHA-
Insured Single Family Mortgages for New Homes (FR-4288-I-01), published
in the Federal Register on March 25, 1999 (64 FR 14572), is corrected
as follows:
1. On page 14572, second column, the second complete sentence is
revised to read as follows: ``(In this preamble, ``new construction''
or ``new home'' refers to any home that was not completed earlier than
1 year before the date of the application for mortgage insurance).''
2. On page 14572, third column, footnote 1, the Internet address is
amended to read ``http://www.hudclips.org/sub-nonhud/html/forms.htm''.
Dated: March 26, 1999.

Assistant General Counsel for Regulations.
