and ending no later than March 13,
2010.
Families eligible for DHAP–Ike are
those identified by FEMA who currently
receive or are eligible to receive initial
and/or continued rental assistance
authorized under section 408 of the
Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C. 5174, pursuant
to the Presidential major disaster
declarations resulting from Hurricane
Ike. FEMA will rely on the eligibility
standards established for its temporary
housing program at 44 CFR 206.113 and
44 CFR 206.114 in determining who is
eligible for referral to DHAP–Ike. All
eligible families wishing to participate
in DHAP–Ike must sign and execute a
HUD-provided DHAP lease or
addendum to their current lease, with
their landlord, which sets forth the new
obligations to receive the rental subsidy.
Similarly, landlords who agree to
participate in DHAP–Ike must sign and
execute a Disaster Rent Subsidy
Contract (DRSC) with the PHA outlining
the new conditions and obligations, in
addition to signing a lease addendum
with the tenant.
On November 1, 2008, HUD assumed
the responsibilities for providing rental
assistance and case management to
families identified by FEMA. Beginning
May 1, 2009, the Incremental Rent
Transition (IRT) will be implemented,
under which HUD will reduce the
amount of rent paid incrementally by
$50 and individuals and families are
required to contribute $50 towards their
rental payment. Every month thereafter,
the individual or family’s rent
contribution will increase in increments
of $50, as HUD’s provision is reduced
by an equal amount, until the program
ends in March 2010. The program
provides a hardship waiver for the IRT
if individuals and families demonstrate
they cannot afford their incremental
rent increase.
No later than August 1, 2009,
individuals and families whose rent
burden is less than 30 percent of their
post-disaster gross income, taking into
account existing mortgages for primary
residences that remain uninhabitable,
will no longer be eligible for DHAP–Ike.
Individuals and families whose rent
burden and mortgage exceed 30 percent
of their post-disaster income will
continue to receive assistance, subject to
the IRT, through March 2010 when the
program ends. Details of the program,
including descriptions of IRT, hardship
provision, and 30 percent post-disaster
income determinations will be spelled
out in the Federal Register Notice and
standard operating procedures
published by HUD.
The designated PHAs will also
provide case management services,

which will include a needs assessment
and individual development plan (IDP)
for each family. The objective of HUD
case management services is to promote
self-sufficiency for the participating
family.
Details about DHAP–Ike will be
published by HUD in a subsequent
Federal Register Notice. In addition, a
copy of the full text of the FEMA–HUD
IAA can be accessed via the FEMA Web
site at http://www.fema.gov. Other
related program information on DHAP–
Ike is available on the HUD Web site at
http://hud.gov/offices/pih/publications/
ike.cfm. Periodic updates on DHAP–Ike
will be posted on FEMA and HUD’s
Web sites.
Authority: Legal authority for DHAP–Ike is
based on the Department of Homeland
Security’s (DHS) general grant authority
under section 102(b)(2) of the Homeland
Security Act, 6 U.S.C. 112, and sections
306(a), 408(b)(1), and 426 of the Robert T.
Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act (Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C.
5149(a), 5174(b)(1), and 5189d, respectively.
As a servicing agency under a grant from
FEMA, and consistent with The Economy
Act (31 U.S.C. 1535), HUD derives all
authority under the program from FEMA and
any and all actions originate from FEMA’s
authority.
