Title: The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) Implementing and Conforming Rule for HERA and Related Regulatory Changes to the Section 8 Tenant-Based Voucher and Section 8 Project-Based Voucher  
Abstract: The Housing and Economic Recovery Act, enacted into law on July 30, 2008, made comprehensive and significant reforms to several HUD programs, including HUD's public housing, section 8 tenant-based and project-based voucher programs. On November 24, 2008, HUD published a notice that provided information about the applicability of certain HERA provisions to these programs. This rule provides the regulations to implement those provisions of HERA that require implementing regulations, as well as conforming regulations for the self-executing provisions of HERA. This rule also takes into consideration the two public comments received in response to issuance of the November 2008 notice, and solicits additional public comment. This rule also makes additional changes to the regulations of the Section 8 Tenant-Based Voucher and Section 8 Project-Based Voucher Programs for the purposes of updating certain regulations to reflect current practices, and clarifying other regulations, which based on experience, HUD determined would benefit from clarification.
