    ACTION: Notice of Correction to the Notice of Funding Availability 
    (NOFA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 1994.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: On April 1, 1994, HUD published a NOFA that announced FY 1994 
    funding of $231,978,631 under the Public and Indian Housing Drug 
    Elimination Program (PHDEP) for use in eliminating drug-related crime. 
    The purpose of this notice is to make corrections to the section 
    specifying eligible applicants for one of the activities under the NOFA 
    and to the number of points in one of the selection criteria.
    
    DATES: The original application deadline date is not changed. 
    Applications must be received at the local HUD Field Office on or 
    before Friday, July 29, 1994, at 3:30 PM, local time. This application 
    deadline is firm as to date and hour. In the interest of fairness to 
    all competing applicants, the Department will treat as ineligible for 
    consideration any application that is received after the deadline. 
    Applicants should take this practice into account and make early 
    submission of their materials to avoid any risk of loss of eligibility 
    brought about by any unanticipated or delivery-related problems. A FAX 
    is not acceptable.

    ELIMINATION PROGRAM, PUBLIC HOUSING, CONTACT: The local HUD Category A 
    or B Field Office, Public Housing Division, or Malcolm E. Main, Drug-

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) 
    announcing HUD's FY 1994 funding of $231,978,631 under the Public and 
    Indian Housing Drug Elimination Program (PHDEP) was published on April 
    1, 1994 (59 FR 15574). Paragraph I.(c)(1)(ii) of the NOFA, under the 
    heading Employment of Housing Authority Police, which listed housing 
    authorities eligible to apply because they have their own housing 
    authority (HA) police department, omitted from the list the HA of the 
    City of Waterbury, Waterbury, CT, and the Buffalo HA, Buffalo, NY, and 
    incorrectly included the Newark Housing Authority, Newark, NJ. In 
    addition, the listing for the New York City Department of Housing 
    Preservation and Development, NYC, NY, should have read: New York City 
    Public Housing Authority, NYC, NY. This notice corrects the April 1, 
    1994 PHDEP NOFA by republishing the entire list of eligible applicants 
    under paragraph I.(c)(1)(ii) to add the two omitted HAs to the list, to 
    delete the one incorrectly listed, and to amend the listing for the New 
    York City Public Housing Authority.
        This notice also corrects the number of points that will be awarded 
    under the first selection criterion of the NOFA. Specifically, five 
    points are added to the subcriteria at sections I.(d)(1) (v) and (vi), 
    raising each to 15 points, and raising the total number of points to 
    130.
        Accordingly, the following technical correction is made in FR Doc. 
    94-7781 to the NOFA titled, ``NOFA for the Public and Indian Housing 
    Drug Elimination Program (PHDEP)--FY-1994'', published on April 1, 1994 
    (59 FR 15574):
        1. On page 15577, the list of eligible applicants in paragraph 
    I.(c)(1)(ii), which appears in the first column, is revised to read as 
    follows:
    
    Baltimore HA and Community Development, Baltimore, MD
    Boston HA, Boston, MA
    Buffalo HA, Buffalo, NY
    Chicago HA, Chicago, IL
    Cuyahoga Metropolitan HA, Cleveland, OH
    HA of the City of Los Angeles, LA, CA
    HA of the City of Waterbury, Waterbury, CT
    HA of the City of Oakland, Oakland, CA
    HA of the City of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA
    New York City Public HA, NYC, NY
    Philadelphia HA, Philadelphia, PA
    
        2. On page 15582, the first full paragraph in the first column, 
    which is a part of paragraph I.(d), is revised to read as follows:
        The number of points that an application receives will depend on 
    the extent to which the application is responsive to the information 
    requested in the selection criteria. An application must receive a 
    score of at least 80 points out of the maximum of 130 points that may 
    be awarded under this competition to be eligible for funding.
        3. On page 15583, paragraph I.(1)(d)(1)(v), which appears in the 
    first column, is revised to read as follows:
        (v) In awarding points, HUD will evaluate and assign points between 
    zero (0) and fifteen (15) according to the per capita incidence of 
    robbery and homicide in their community relative to their per capita 
    incidence on a nationwide basis. Data on robbery and homicide incidence 
    were chosen because of the demonstrated relationship of a substantial 
    portion of these crimes with drug abuse. The community data will be 
    taken from the Uniform Crime Reports (UCRs) of the U. S. Department of 
    Justice (FBI crime data) and will be at the city level, when available, 
    or at the county level. The crime incidence data and the point values 
    will be computed by HUD. (Maximum Points: 15)
        4. On page 15583, paragraph I.(1)(d)(1)(vi), which appears in the 
    first column, is revised to read as follows:
        (vi) In awarding points, HUD will evaluate and assign points 
    between zero (0) and fifteen (15) according to the per capita incidence 
    of drug arrests. In instances where the Department of Justice records 
    do not contain community submission data, points will be assigned based 
    on state metropolitan and nonmetropolitan averages relevant to such 
    areas. (Maximum Points: 15)
    
        Authority: Sec. 5127, Public Housing Drug Elimination Act of 
    1988 (42 U.S.C. 11901 et. seq.); sec. 7(d), Department of Housing 
    and Urban Development Act (42 U.S.C. 3535(d)).
    
        Dated: July 7, 1994.
    Joseph Shuldiner,
    Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.
