II. Public Law 113–2 Statutory
Extensions
Statutory extensions for grants made
available under Public Law 113–2.
Following two short-term statutory
extensions (Pub. L. 116–260 and Pub. L.
117–103), section 420(a) of the
Transportation, Housing and Urban
Development, and Related Agencies
Appropriations Act, 2023 (Pub. L. 117–
328) provided that CDBG–DR grant
obligations made before September 30,
2017 from funds made available under
Public Law 113–2 are to remain
available until expended. The
requirements at 2 CFR 200.211(b)
require all Federal awards to include a
period of performance and budget
period. Therefore, HUD is revising the
period of performance and budget
period for open Federal awards made
under Public Law 113–2 with an end
date of September 30, 2029, when
permissible under other applicable
requirements that govern the use of
funds under Public Law 113–2. The
projections reported by Public Law 113–
2 grantees indicate that this period is
sufficient to allow for the full
expenditure of any remaining grant
funds.
HUD may extend the time period in
this alternative requirement and
associated grant period of performance
and budget period administratively,
when permissible under other
applicable requirements that govern the
use of funds under Public Law 113–2,
if good cause for such an extension
exists at that time, as requested by the
grantee, and approved by HUD. When
the period of performance has ended,
HUD will close out the grant and any
remaining funds not expended by the
grantee for appropriate programmatic
purposes will be recaptured by HUD.
III. Public Law 114–113, 114–254, 115–
31, 115–56, 115–123, 115–254, and 116–
20 Waivers and Alternative
Requirements
Waiver and alternative requirement
modification to allow HUD to extend
certain grantee’s period of performance
administratively.
The Federal Register notices
governing the use of funds for disasters
occurring in 2015 and 2016 under
Public Laws 114–113, 114–254, and
115–31 require each grantee to expend
100 percent of its total allocation of
CDBG–DR funds on eligible activities
within six years of HUD’s execution of
the grant agreement. The provisions

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 259001

governing the timely distribution of
funds for these CDBG–DR
appropriations can be found in the
following Federal Register notices: June
17, 2016 (81 FR 39702) and November
21, 2016 (81 FR 83268).
Additionally, Public Laws 115–56 and
115–123, as amended, require that
CDBG–DR funds for disasters occurring
in 2017, 2018, and 2019 be expended
within two years of the date that HUD
obligates funds to a grantee, but also
authorizes the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) to provide a waiver
of this requirement. OMB has waived
this requirement for a combined total of
$35,390,000,000 of CDBG–DR funds
appropriated under these acts. However,
the Federal Register notices governing
the use of those funds require each
grantee to expend 100 percent of its
total allocation of CDBG–DR funds on
eligible activities within six years of
HUD’s initial obligation of funds. The
provisions governing the timely
distribution of funds for these CDBG–
DR appropriations can be found in the
February 9, 2018 (83 FR 5860) in the
Federal Register notice.
Additionally, the Federal Register
notices governing the use of CDBG–MIT
funds require each grantee to expend
fifty percent of its CDBG–MIT grant on
eligible activities within six years of
HUD’s execution of the grant agreement
and one hundred percent of its grant
within twelve years of HUD’s execution
of the agreement absent a waiver and
alternative requirement as requested by
the grantee and approved by HUD. The
provisions governing the timely
distribution of funds for these CDBG–
MIT funds can be found in the August
30, 2019 (84 FR 45862) Federal Register
notice.
The Federal Register notices
governing the use of CDBG–DR funds
under Public Laws 114–113, 114–254,
115–31, 115–56, 115–123, 115–254, and
116–20 require each grantee to expend
100 percent of its CDBG–DR grant on
eligible activities within 6 years of
HUD’s obligation of funds pursuant to
an executed grant agreement. The
provisions governing the duration of
funding for these CDBG–DR
appropriations can be found in the
following Federal Register notices: June
17, 2016 (81 FR 39708); November 21,
2016 (81 FR 83274); January 18, 2017
(82 FR 5594); August 7, 2017 (82 FR
36815); February 9, 2018 (83 FR 5868);
August 14, 2018 (83 FR 40323); January
27, 2020 (85 FR 4688); January 6, 2021
(86 FR 568); and January 6, 2021 (86 FR
575).
For funds appropriated under these
seven appropriations acts for CDBG–DR
and CDBG–MIT grants, HUD waived the

Fmt 4703

timely distribution of funds
requirements in 24 CFR 570.494 and
570.902 and imposed an alternative
requirement. HUD is now modifying the
waiver and alternative requirement that
replaces 570.494 and 570.902 governing
the timely distribution of CDBG–DR
funds, by adding the following sentence
at the end of the paragraphs at section
VI.A.28. of the June 17, 2016 notice (81
FR 39702); section VI.A.24. of the
November 21, 2016 notice (81 FR
83268); section V.A.28. of the February
9, 2018 notice (83 FR 5860); and section
V.A.26. of the August 30, 2019 notice
(84 FR 45862):
HUD may extend the time period in
this alternative requirement and
associated grant period of performance
administratively, if good cause for such
an extension exists at that time, as
requested by the grantee, and approved
by HUD.
HUD is also adding the following two
sentences to the end of the Duration of
Funding paragraphs at sections VII of
the June 17, 2016 notice (81 FR 39708)
and the November 21, 2016 notice (81
FR 83274); section V of the January 18,
2017 notice (82 FR 5594); section I.E. of
the August 7, 2017 notice (82 FR 36815);
section VII of the February 9, 2018
notice (83 FR 5868); section V of the
August 14, 2018 notice (83 FR 40323);
section VII of the August 30, 2019 notice
(84 FR 45870); and section V of the
January 27, 2020 notice (85 FR 4688):
HUD may extend the period of
performance administratively, in
accordance with the provisions of the
waiver and alternative requirement
governing the timely distribution of
funds. When the period of performance
has ended, HUD will close out the grant
and any remaining funds not expended
by the grantee on appropriate
programmatic purposes will be
recaptured by HUD.
