Abstract:
In Fiscal Year 2018, Congress enacted H.R. 1625- Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018 (P.L. 115-141) (Effective: 3/23/18) that appropriated $99,000,000 for competitive grants under NAHASDA. The Indian Housing Block Grant Competitive (IHBG Competitive) program will give priority to projects that will spur construction and rehabilitation from NAHASDA-eligible recipients while considering need and administrative capacity. Additionally, applicants may apply for other eligible activities under Section 202 of NAHASDA.
Emergency Justfication:
HUD believes that the funding for IHBG Competitive meets the emergency processing criteria of 5 CFR § 1320.13. The appropriations language meets the “unanticipated event” criteria of 5 CFR §1320.13 because this additional funding creates an entirely new competitive grant program to supplement the traditional formula-based block grant program of NAHASDA. Furthermore, the Department believes that the information collection associated with this competitive grant warrants emergency processing because following the regular PRA schedule would impede both the intent of this additional appropriation and HUD’s goal to award funding to Native American communities in an expedited manner.

Short Statement:
On or about July 7, 2018, OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs approved the submission of this request for emergency PRA processing and review. At the time, the program was referred to as the Native American Housing Block Grant program. Subsequent to OMB’s approval, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for HUD’s Office of Native American Programs decided to change the program’s name to the IHBG Competitive program to more accurately reflect the competitive nature of the new program. The rational for the emergency request, as described below, has not changed, only the program name has changed. HUD believes that the funding for IHBG Competitive meets the emergency processing criteria of 5 CFR § 1320.13. The appropriations language meets the “unanticipated event” criteria of 5 CFR §1320.13 because this additional funding creates an entirely new competitive grant program to supplement the traditional formula-based block grant program of NAHASDA. Furthermore, the Department believes that the information collection associated with this competitive grant warrants emergency processing because following the regular PRA schedule would impede both the intent of this additional appropriation and HUD’s goal to award funding to Native American communities in an expedited manner. The “Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2018” also directs the Department to give priority to projects that will “spur construction and rehabilitation for grantees” and the additional amount would “remain available until September 30, 2022.” For example, construction projects in Indian County can take three to five years from start to completion due to remote locations and complex land issues. Following an expedited emergency processing time frame would maximize the limited period of availability given by Congress for recipients to plan and implement projects as soon as possible.
