SUBCHAPTER I - GENERAL PROVISIONS

-HEAD-

Sec. 1441. Congressional declaration of national housing policy

-STATUTE-

The Congress declares that the general welfare and security of

the Nation and the health and living standards of its people

require housing production and related community development

sufficient to remedy the serious housing shortage, the elimination

of substandard and other inadequate housing through the clearance

of slums and blighted areas, and the realization as soon as

feasible of the goal of a decent home and a suitable living

environment for every American family, thus contributing to the

development and redevelopment of communities and to the advancement

of the growth, wealth, and security of the Nation. The Congress

further declares that such production is necessary to enable the

housing industry to make its full contribution toward an economy of

maximum employment, production, and purchasing power. The policy to

be followed in attaining the national housing objective established

shall be: (1) private enterprise shall be encouraged to serve as

large a part of the total need as it can; (2) governmental

assistance shall be utilized where feasible to enable private

enterprise to serve more of the total need; (3) appropriate local

public bodies shall be encouraged and assisted to undertake

positive programs of encouraging and assisting the development of

well-planned, integrated residential neighborhoods, the development

and redevelopment of communities, and the production, at lower

costs, of housing of sound standards of design, construction,

livability, and size for adequate family life; (4) governmental

assistance to eliminate substandard and other inadequate housing

through the clearance of slums and blighted areas, to facilitate

community development and redevelopment, and to provide adequate

housing for urban and rural nonfarm families with incomes so low

that they are not being decently housed in new or existing housing

shall be extended to those localities which estimate their own

needs and demonstrate that these needs are not being met through

reliance solely upon private enterprise, and without such aid; and

(5) governmental assistance for decent, safe, and sanitary farm

dwellings and related facilities shall be extended where the farm

owner demonstrates that he lacks sufficient resources to provide

such housing on his own account and is unable to secure necessary

credit for such housing from other sources on terms and conditions

which he could reasonably be expected to fulfill. The Department of

Housing and Urban Development, and any other departments or

agencies of the Federal Government having powers, functions, or

duties with respect to housing, shall exercise their powers,

functions, and duties under this or any other law, consistently

with the national housing policy declared by this Act and in such

manner as will facilitate sustained progress in attaining the

national housing objective hereby established, and in such manner

as will encourage and assist (1) the production of housing of sound

standards of design, construction, livability, and size for

adequate family life; (2) the reduction of the costs of housing

without sacrifice of such sound standards; (3) the use of new

designs, materials, techniques, and methods in residential

construction, the use of standardized dimensions and methods of

assembly of home-building materials and equipment, and the increase

of efficiency in residential construction and maintenance; (4) the

development of well-planned, integrated, residential neighborhoods

and the development and redevelopment of communities; and (5) the

stabilization of the housing industry at a high annual volume of

residential construction.

SUBCHAPTER I - GENERAL PROVISIONS

-HEAD-

Sec. 1441a. National housing goals

-STATUTE-

(a) Congressional findings and reaffirmation of goals

The Congress finds that the supply of the Nation's housing is not

increasing rapidly enough to meet the national housing goal,

established in the Housing Act of 1949 [42 U.S.C. 1441 et seq.], of

the "realization as soon as feasible of the goal of a decent home

and a suitable living environment for every American family". The

Congress reaffirms this national housing goal and determines that

it can be substantially achieved within the next decade by the

construction or rehabilitation of twenty-six million housing units,

six million of these for low and moderate income families.

(b) Additional Congressional findings

The Congress further finds that policies designed to contribute

to the achievement of the national housing goal have not directed

sufficient attention and resources to the preservation of existing

housing and neighborhoods, that the deterioration and abandonment

of housing for the Nation's lower income families has accelerated

over the last decade, and that this acceleration has contributed to

neighborhood disintegration and has partially negated the progress

toward achieving the national housing goal which has been made

primarily through new housing construction.

The Congress declares that if the national housing goal is to be

achieved, a greater effort must be made to encourage the

preservation of existing housing and neighborhoods through such

measures as housing preservation, moderate rehabilitation, and

improvements in housing management and maintenance, in conjunction

with the provision of adequate municipal services. Such an effort

should concentrate, to a greater extent than it has in the past, on

housing and neighborhoods where deterioration is evident but has

not yet become acute.

elimination of all substandard housing and the realization of the

goal referred to in section 1441a of this title. Such plan shall -

(1) indicate the number of new or rehabilitated housing units

which it is anticipated will have to be provided, with or without

Government assistance, during each fiscal year of the ten-year

period, in order to achieve the objectives of the plan, showing

the number of such units which it is anticipated will have to be

provided under each of the various Federal programs designed to

assist in the provision of housing;

(2) indicate the reduction in the number of occupied

substandard housing units which it is anticipated will have to

occur during each fiscal year of the ten-year period in order to

achieve the objectives of the plan;

(3) provide an estimate of the cost of carrying out the plan

for each of the various Federal programs and for each fiscal year

during the ten-year period to the extent that such costs will be

reflected in the Federal budget;

(4) make recommendations with respect to the legislative and

administrative actions necessary or desirable to achieve the

objectives of the plan; and

(5) provide such other pertinent data, estimates, and

recommendations as the President deems advisable.

Such report shall, in addition, contain a projection of the

residential mortgage market needs and prospects during the coming

year, including an estimate of the requirements with respect to the

availability, need, and flow of mortgage funds (particularly in

declining urban and rural areas) during such year, together with

such recommendations as may be deemed appropriate for encouraging

the availability of such funds.

Sec. 1452c. Nullification of right of redemption of single family

mortgagors under rehabilitation loan program

-STATUTE-

(a) In general

Whenever with respect to a single family mortgage securing a loan

under section 1452b (!1) of this title, the Secretary of Housing

and Urban Development or its foreclosure agent forecloses in any

Federal or State court or pursuant to a power of sale in a

mortgage, the purchaser at the foreclosure sale shall be entitled

to receive a conveyance of title to, and possession of, the

property, subject to any interests senior to the interests of the

Secretary. With respect to properties that are vacant and

abandoned, notwithstanding any State law to the contrary, there

shall be no right of redemption (including all instances any right

to possession based upon any right of redemption) in the mortgagor

or any other person subsequent to the foreclosure sale in

connection with such single family mortgage. The appropriate State

official or the trustee, as the case may be, shall execute and

deliver a deed or other appropriate instrument conveying title to

the purchaser at the foreclosure sale, consistent with applicable

procedures in the jurisdiction and without regard to any such right

of redemption.

(b) Foreclosure by others

Whenever with respect to a single family mortgage on a property

that also has a single family mortgage securing a loan under

section 1452b (!1) of this title, a mortgagee forecloses in any

Federal or State court or pursuant to a power of sale in a

mortgage, the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, if the

Secretary is purchaser at the foreclosure sale, shall be entitled

to receive a conveyance of title to, and possession of, the

property, subject to the interests senior to the interests of the

mortgagee. Notwithstanding any State law to the contrary, there

shall be no right of redemption (including in all instances any

right to possession based upon any right of redemption) if the

mortgagor or any other person subsequent to the foreclosure sale to

the Secretary in connection with a property that secured a single

family mortgage for a loan under section 1452b (!1) of this title.

The appropriate State official or the trustee, as the case may be,

shall execute and deliver a deed or other appropriate instrument

conveying title to the Secretary, who is the purchaser at the

foreclosure sale, consistent with applicable procedures in the

jurisdiction and without regard to any such right of redemption.

The following actions shall be taken in order to verify title in

the purchaser at the foreclosure sale:

(1) In the case of a judicial foreclosure in any Federal or

State court, there shall be included in the petition and in the

Sec. 1471. Financial assistance by Secretary of Agriculture

-STATUTE-

(a) Authorization and purposes of assistance

The Secretary of Agriculture (hereinafter referred to as the

"Secretary") is authorized, subject to the terms and conditions of

this subchapter, to extend financial assistance, through the

Farmers Home Administration, (1) to owners of farms in the United

States and in the Territories of Alaska and Hawaii and in the

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, the territories

and possessions of the United States, and the Trust Territory of

the Pacific Islands, to enable them to construct, improve, alter,

repair, or replace dwellings and other farm buildings on their

farms, and to purchase buildings and land constituting a minimum

adequate site, in order to provide them, their tenants, lessees,

sharecroppers, and laborers with decent, safe, and sanitary living

conditions and adequate farm buildings as specified in this

subchapter, and (2) to owners of other real estate in rural areas

for the construction, improvement, alteration, or repair of

dwellings, related facilities, and farm buildings and to rural

residents, including persons who reside in reservations or villages

of Indian tribes, for such purposes and for the purchase of

buildings and the purchase of land constituting a minimum adequate

site, in order to enable them to provide dwellings and related

facilities for their own use and buildings adequate for their

farming operations, and (3) to elderly or handicapped persons or

families who are or will be the owners of land in rural areas for

the construction, improvement, alteration, or repair of dwellings

and related facilities, the purchase of dwellings and related

facilities and the purchase of land constituting a minimum adequate

site, in order to provide them with adequate dwellings and related

facilities for their own use, and (4) to an owner described in

clause (1), (2), or (3) for refinancing indebtedness which -

(A) was incurred for an eligible purpose described in such

clause, and

(B)(i) if not refinanced, is likely to result (because of

circumstances beyond the control of the applicant) at an early

date in the loss of the applicant's necessary dwelling or

essential farm service buildings, or

(ii) if combined (in the case of a dwelling that the Secretary

finds not to be decent, safe, and sanitary) with a loan for

improvement, rehabilitation, or repairs and not refinanced, is

likely to result in the applicant's continuing to be deprived of

a decent, safe, and sanitary dwelling.

(5) (!1) Definitions. - For purposes of this subchapter, the

terms "repair", "repairs", "rehabilitate", and "rehabilitation"

include measures to evaluate and reduce lead-based paint hazards,

as such terms are defined in section 4851b of this title.

(b) Definitions

(1) For the purpose of this subchapter, the term "farm" shall

mean a parcel or parcels of land operated as a single unit which is

used for the production of one or more agricultural commodities and

which customarily produces or is capable of producing such

commodities for sale and for home use of a gross annual value of

not less than the equivalent of a gross annual value of $400 in

1944, as determined by the Secretary. The Secretary shall promptly

determine whether any parcel or parcels of land constitute a farm

for the purposes of this subchapter whenever requested to do so by

any interested Federal, State, or local public agency, and his

determination shall be conclusive.

(2) For the purposes of this subchapter, the terms "owner" and

"mortgage" shall be deemed to include, respectively, the lessee of,

and other security interest in, any leasehold interest which the

Secretary determines has an unexpired term (A) in the case of a

loan, for a period sufficiently beyond the repayment period of the

loan to provide adequate security and a reasonable probability of

accomplishing the objectives for which the loan is made, and (B) in

the case of a grant for a period sufficient to accomplish the

objectives for which the grant is made.

(3) For the purposes of this subchapter, the term "elderly or

handicapped persons or families" means families which consist of

two or more persons, the head of which (or his or her spouse) is at

least sixty-two years of age or is handicapped. Such term also

means a single person who is at least sixty-two years of age or is

handicapped. A person shall be considered handicapped if such

person is determined, pursuant to regulations issued by the

Secretary, to have an impairment which (A) is expected to be of

long-continued and indefinite duration, (B) substantially impedes

his ability to live independently, and (C) is of such a nature that

such ability could be improved by more suitable housing conditions,

or if such person has a developmental disability as defined in

section 15002 of this title. The Secretary shall prescribe such

regulations as may be necessary to prevent abuses in determining,

under the definitions contained in this paragraph, eligibility of

families and persons for admission to and occupancy of housing

constructed with assistance under this subchapter. Notwithstanding

the preceding provisions of this paragraph, such term also includes

two or more elderly (sixty-two years of age or over) or handicapped

persons living together, one or more such persons living with

another person who is determined (under regulations prescribed by

the Secretary) to be essential to the care or well-being of such

persons, and the surviving member or members of any family

described in the first sentence of this paragraph who were living,

in a unit assisted under this subchapter, with the deceased member

of the family at the time of his or her death.

(4) For the purpose of this subchapter, the terms "low income

families or persons" and "very low-income families or persons"

means those families and persons whose incomes do not exceed the

respective levels established for lower income families and very

low-income families under the United States Housing Act of 1937 [42

U.S.C. 1437 et seq.]. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the

maximum income levels established for purposes of this subchapter

for such families and persons in the Virgin Islands shall not be

less than the highest such levels established for purposes of this

subchapter for such families and persons in American Samoa, Guam,

the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Trust Territory of the

Pacific Islands. The temporary absence of a child from the home due

to placement in foster care should not be considered in considering

family composition and family size.

(5)(A) For the purpose of this subchapter, the terms "income" and

"adjusted income" have the meanings given by sections 3(b)(4) and

3(b)(5), respectively, of the United States Housing Act of 1937 [42

U.S.C. 1437a(b)(4), (5)].

(B) For purposes of this subchapter, for fiscal years 2002 and

2003, the term "income" does not include dividends received from

the Alaska Permanent Fund by a person who was under the age of 18

years when that person qualified for the dividend.

(6) For the purposes of this subchapter, the term "Indian tribe"

means any Indian tribe, band, group, and nation, including Alaska

Indians, Aleuts, and Eskimos, and any Alaskan Native Village, of

the United States, which is considered an eligible recipient under

the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (Public

Law 93-638) [25 U.S.C. 450 et seq.] or was considered an eligible

recipient under chapter 67 of title 31 prior to the repeal of such

chapter.

(7) For the purposes of this subchapter, the term "rural

resident" shall include a family or a person who is a renter of a

dwelling unit in a rural area.

(8) For the purposes of this subchapter, the term "adequate

dwelling" means a decent, safe, and sanitary dwelling unit.

In order to be eligible for the assistance authorized by

subsection (a) of this section, the applicant must show (1) that he

is the owner of a farm which is without a decent, safe, and

sanitary dwelling for himself and his family and necessary resident

farm labor, or for the family of the operating tenant, lessee, or

sharecropper, or without other farm buildings adequate for the type

of farming in which he engages or desires to engage, or that he is

the owner of other real estate in a rural area or a rural resident

without an adequate dwelling or related facilities for his own use

or buildings adequate for his farming operations, or that the

applicant is an elderly or handicapped person or family in a rural

area without an adequate dwelling or related facility for its own

use, or that he is the owner of a farm or other real estate in a

rural area who needs refinancing of indebtedness described in

clause (4) of subsection (a) of this section; (2) that he is

without sufficient resources to provide the necessary housing and

buildings on his own account; and (3) that he is unable to secure

the credit necessary for such housing and buildings from other

sources upon terms and conditions which he could reasonably be

expected to fulfill. If an applicant is a State or local public

agency or Indian tribe -

(A) the provisions of clause (3) shall not apply to its

application; and

(B) the applicant shall be eligible to participate in any

program under this subchapter if the persons or families to be

served by the applicant with the assistance being sought would be

eligible to participate in such program.

(d) Additional definitions

As used in this subchapter (except in sections 1473 and 1474(b)

of this title) the terms "farm", "farm dwelling", and "farm

housing" shall include dwellings or other essential buildings of

eligible applicants.

(e) Prepayment of taxes, insurance, and other expenses; advances to

account of borrower: interest, time for repayment

The Secretary shall establish procedures under which borrowers

under this subchapter are required to make periodic payments for

the purpose of taxes, insurance, and other necessary expenses as

the Secretary may deem appropriate. Notwithstanding any other

provision of law, such payments shall not be considered public

funds. The Secretary shall direct the disbursement of the funds at

the appropriate time or times for the purposes for which the funds

were escrowed. The Secretary shall pay the same rate of interest on

escrowed funds as is required to be paid on escrowed funds held by

other lenders in any State where State law requires payment of

interest on escrowed funds, subject to appropriations to the extent

that additional budget authority is necessary to carry out this

sentence. If the prepayments made by the borrower are not

sufficient to pay the amount due, advances may be made by the

Secretary to pay the costs in full, which advances shall be charged

to the account of the borrower, bear interest, and be payable in a

timely fashion as determined by the Secretary. The Secretary shall

notify a borrower in writing when loan payments are delinquent.

(f) Increase in loan limits

With respect to any limitation on the amount of any loan which

may be made, insured, or guaranteed under this subchapter for the

purchase of a dwelling unit, the Secretary may increase such amount

by up to 20 percent if such increase is necessary to account for

the increased cost of the dwelling unit due to the installation of

a solar energy system (as defined in subparagraph (3) of the last

paragraph of section 1703(a) of title 12) therein.

(g) Avoidance of involuntary displacement of families and

businesses

The programs authorized by this subchapter shall be carried out,

consistent with program goals and objectives, so that the

involuntary displacement of families and businesses is avoided.

(h) Eligibility of resident aliens

The Secretary may not restrict the availability of assistance

under this subchapter for any alien for whom assistance may not be

restricted under section 1436a of this title.

(i) Loan packaging by nonprofit organizations as a "development

cost"

For the purposes of this subchapter, the term "development cost"

shall include the packaging of loan and grant applications and

actions related thereto by public and private nonprofit

organizations tax exempt under title 26.

(j) Program transfers

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary shall

not transfer any program authorized by this subchapter to the Rural

Development Administration.

this section if the Secretary determines that such extension is

necessary to permit the making of such loan to any person whose

income does not exceed 60 per centum of the median income for the

area and who would otherwise be denied such loan because the

payments required under a shorter period would exceed the financial

capacity of such person. The aggregate period for which any loan

may be extended under this paragraph may not exceed 5 years.

the farm, that he is able to do so upon reasonable terms and

conditions;

Sec. 1473. Loans for housing and buildings on potentially adequate

farms; conditions and terms

-STATUTE-

If the Secretary determines (a) that, because of the inadequacy

of the income of an eligible applicant from the farm to be improved

and from other sources, said applicant may not reasonably be

expected to make annual repayments of principal and interest in an

amount sufficient to repay the loan in full within the period of

time prescribed by the Secretary as authorized in this subchapter;

(b) that the income of the applicant may be sufficiently increased

within a period of not to exceed five years by improvement or

enlargement of the farm or an adjustment of the farm practices or

methods; and (c) that the applicant has adopted and may reasonably

be expected to put into effect a plan of farm improvement,

enlargement, or adjusted practices or production which, in the

opinion of the Secretary, will increase the applicant's income from

said farm within a period of not to exceed five years to the extent

that the applicant may be expected thereafter to make annual

repayments of principal and interest sufficient to repay the

balance of the indebtedness less payments in cash and credits for

the contributions to be made by the Secretary as hereinafter

provided, the Secretary may make a loan in an amount necessary to

provide adequate farm dwellings and buildings on said farm under

the terms and conditions prescribed in section 1472 of this title.

In addition, the Secretary may agree with the borrower to make

annual contributions during the said five-year period in the form

of credits on the borrower's indebtedness in an amount not to

exceed the annual installment of interest and 50 per centum of the

principal payments accruing during any installment year up to and

including the fifth installment year, subject to the conditions

that the borrower's income is, in fact, insufficient to enable the

borrower to make payments in accordance with the plan or schedule

prescribed by the Secretary and that the borrower pursues his plan

of farm reorganization and improvements or enlargement with due

diligence.

Except as provided in title 11, this agreement with respect to

credits or principal and interest upon the borrower's indebtedness

shall not be assignable nor accrue to the benefit of any third

party without the written consent of the Secretary and the

Secretary shall have the right, at his option, to cancel the

agreement upon the sale of the farm or the execution or creation of

any lien thereon subsequent to the lien given to the Secretary, or

to refuse to release the lien given to the Secretary except upon

payment in cash of the entire original principal plus accrued

interest thereon less actual cash payments of principal and

interest when the Secretary determines that the release of the lien

would permit the benefits of this section to accrue to a person not

eligible to receive such benefits.

Sec. 1474. Loans and grants for repairs or improvements of rural

dwellings

-STATUTE-

(a) Prerequisites; purposes; amounts; terms

The Secretary may make a loan, grant, or combined loan and grant

to an eligible very low-income applicant in order to improve or

modernize a rural dwelling, to make the dwelling safer or more

sanitary, or to remove hazards. The Secretary may make a loan or

grant under this subsection to the applicant to cover the cost of

any or all repairs, improvements, or additions such as repairing

roofs, providing sanitary waste facilities, providing a convenient

and sanitary water supply, repairing or providing structural

supports, or making similar repairs, additions, improvements,

including all preliminary and installation costs in obtaining

central water and sewer service. The maximum amount of a grant, a

loan, or a loan and grant shall not exceed such limitations as the

Secretary determines to be appropriate. Any portion of the sums

advanced to the borrower treated as a loan shall be secured and be

repayable within twenty years in accordance with the principles and

conditions set forth in this subchapter, except that a loan for

less than $7,500 need be evidenced only by a promissory note. Sums

made available by grant may be made subject to the conditions set

forth in this subchapter for the protection of the Government with

respect to contributions made on loans made by the Secretary.

(b) Additional purposes

In order to encourage adequate family-size farms the Secretary

may make loans under this section and section 1473 of this title to

any applicant whose farm needs enlargement or development in order

to provide income sufficient to support decent, safe, and sanitary

housing and other farm buildings, and may use the funds made

available under clause (b) of section 1483 of this title for such

purposes.

(1) In addition to other duties specified in this section, the

Secretary shall develop and conduct a weatherization program for

the purpose of making grants to finance the purchase or

installation, or both, of weatherization materials in dwelling

units occupied by low-income families. Such grants shall be made to

low-income families who own dwelling units or, subject to the

provisions of paragraph (2), to owners of such units for the

benefit of the low-income tenants residing therein. In making

grants under this subsection, the Secretary shall give priority to

the weatherization of dwelling units occupied by low-income elderly

or handicapped persons. The Secretary shall, in carrying out this

section, consult with the Director of the Community Services

Administration and the Secretary of Energy for the purpose of

coordinating the weatherization program under this subsection,

section 2809(a)(12) of this title, and part A of the Energy

Conservation in Existing Buildings Act of 1976 [42 U.S.C. 6861 et

seq.].

(2) In the case of any grant made under this subsection to an

owner of a rental dwelling unit the Secretary shall provide that

(A) the benefits of weatherization assistance in connection with

such unit will accrue primarily to the low-income family residing

therein, (B) the rents on such dwelling unit will not be raised

because of any increase in value thereof due solely to

weatherization assistance provided under this subsection, and (C)

no undue or excessive enhancement will occur to the value of such

unit.

(3) In carrying out this subsection, the Secretary shall (A)

implement the weatherization standards described in paragraphs

(2)(A) and (3) of section 413(b) of the Energy Conservation in

Existing Buildings Act of 1976 [42 U.S.C. 6863(b)], and (B) provide

that, with respect to any dwelling unit, not more than $800 of any

grant made under this section be expended on weatherization

materials and related matters described in section 415(c) of the

Energy Conservation in Existing Buildings Act of 1976 [42 U.S.C.

6865(c)], except that the Secretary shall increase such amount to

not more than $1,500 to cover labor costs in areas where the

Secretary, in consultation with the Secretary of Labor, determines

there is an insufficient number of volunteers and training

participants and public service employment workers, assisted

pursuant to title I of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 [29

U.S.C. 2801 et seq.] or the Older American Community Service

Employment Act [42 U.S.C. 3056 et seq.], available to work on

weatherization projects under the supervision of qualified

supervisors.

(4) For purposes of this subsection, the terms "elderly,"

"handicapped person," "low income," and "weatherization materials"

shall have the same meanings given such terms in paragraphs (3),

(5), (7), and (9), respectively, of section 412 of the Energy

Conservation in Existing Buildings Act of 1976 [42 U.S.C. 6862].

-STATUTE-

(a) Moratorium

During any time that any such loan is outstanding, the Secretary

is authorized under regulations to be prescribed by him to grant a

moratorium upon the payment of interest and principal on such loan

for so long a period as he deems necessary, upon a showing by the

borrower that due to circumstances beyond his control, he is unable

to continue making payments of such principal and interest when due

without unduly impairing his standard of living. In cases of

extreme hardship under the foregoing circumstances, the Secretary

is further authorized to cancel interest due and payable on such

loans during the moratorium. Should any foreclosure of such a

mortgage securing such a loan upon which a moratorium has been

granted occur, no deficiency judgment shall be taken against the

mortgagor if he shall have faithfully tried to meet his obligation.

(b) Foreclosure procedures

In foreclosing on any mortgage held by the Secretary under this

subchapter, the Secretary shall follow the foreclosure procedures

of the State in which the property involved is located to the

extent such procedures are more favorable to the borrower than the

foreclosure procedures that would otherwise be followed by the

Secretary. This subsection shall be subject to the availability of

amounts approved in appropriations Acts, to the extent additional

budget authority is necessary to carry out this subsection.

such activities for the purposes of stimulating construction and

improving the architectural design and utility of dwellings and

buildings. In carrying out this subsection, the Secretary may

regulations, or policies if the Secretary finds that in so doing,

the health and safety of the population of the area in which the

demonstration is carried out will not be adversely affected, except

that the aggregate expenditures for such demonstrations may not

exceed $10,000,000 in any fiscal year.

The Secretary is further authorized to carry out a program of

research, study, and analysis of farm housing in the United States

to develop data and information on -

The Secretary of Agriculture shall prepare and submit to the

President and to the Congress estimates of national rural housing

needs and reports with respect to the progress being made toward

meeting such needs and correlate and recommend proposals for such

furtherance of the national housing objective and policy

established by this Act with respect to rural housing, together

with such other reports or information as may be required of the

Secretary by the President or the Congress.

(f) Study of housing available for migrant and settled farmworkers

(1) The Secretary shall conduct a study of housing which is

available for migrant and settled farmworkers. In conducting such

study, the Secretary shall -

(A) determine the location, number, quality, and condition of

housing units which are available to such farmworkers and the

cost assessed such farmworkers for occupying such units;

(B) recommend legislative, administrative, and other action

(including the need for new authority for such action) which may

be taken for the purpose of improving both the availability and

the condition of such housing units; and

farmworker associations, individual farmers, farmer associations,

and public and private nonprofit agencies can perform in

improving the housing conditions of farmworkers.

(2) The Secretary shall transmit the results of the study

described in paragraph (1) to each House of the Congress within one

Sec. 1479. General powers of Secretary

-STATUTE-

(a) Standards of adequate farm housing and other buildings;

criteria

The Secretary, for the purposes of this subchapter, shall have

the power to determine and prescribe the standards of adequate farm

housing and other buildings, by farms or localities, taking into

consideration, among other factors, the type of housing which will

provide decent, safe, and sanitary dwelling for the needs of the

family using the housing, the type and character of the farming

operations to be conducted, and the size and earning capacity of

the land. The Secretary shall approve a residential building as

meeting such standards if the building is constructed in accordance

with (1) the minimum standards prescribed by the Secretary, (2) the

minimum property standards prescribed by the Secretary of Housing

and Urban Development for mortgages insured under title II of the

National Housing Act [12 U.S.C. 1707 et seq.], (3) the standards

contained in any of the voluntary national model building codes, or

(4) in the case of manufactured housing, the standards referred to

in section 1472(e) of this title. To the maximum extent feasible,

the Secretary shall promote the use of energy saving techniques

through standards established by such Secretary for newly

constructed residential housing assisted under this subchapter.

Such standards shall, insofar as is practicable, be consistent with

the standards established pursuant to section 526 of the National

Housing Act [12 U.S.C. 1735f-4] and shall incorporate the energy

performance requirements developed pursuant to such section.

(b) Terms or conditions of leases or occupancy agreements subject

to change with approval of Secretary

The Secretary may require any recipient of a loan or grant to

agree that the availability of improvements constructed or repaired

with the proceeds of the loan or grant under this subchapter shall

not be a justification for directly or indirectly changing the

terms or conditions of the lease or occupancy agreement with the

occupants of such farms to the latter's disadvantage without the

approval of the Secretary.

respecting construction defects; judicial review prohibition

The Secretary is authorized, after October 1, 1977, with respect

to any unit or dwelling newly constructed during the period

beginning eighteen months prior to October 12, 1977, and purchased

with financial assistance authorized by this subchapter which he

finds to have structural defects to make expenditures for (1)

correcting such defects, (2) paying the claims of the owner of the

property arising from such defects, or (3) acquiring title to the

property, if such assistance is requested by the owner of the

property within thirty-six months after financial assistance under

this subchapter is rendered to the owner of the property or, in the

case of property with respect to which assistance was made

available within eighteen months prior to October 12, 1977, within

thirty-six months after October 12, 1977. Expenditures pursuant to

this subsection may be paid from the Rural Housing Insurance Fund.

Decisions by the Secretary regarding such expenditures or payments

under this subsection, and the terms and conditions under which the

same are approved or disapproved, shall not be subject to judicial

review.

(d) Defaults involving security interest in tribal lands

In the event of default involving a security interest in tribal

allotted or trust land, the Secretary shall only pursue liquidation

after offering to transfer the account to an eligible tribal

member, the tribe, or the Indian housing authority serving the

tribe or tribes. If the Secretary subsequently proceeds to

liquidate the account, the Secretary shall not sell, transfer, or

otherwise dispose of or alienate the property except to one of the

entities described in the preceding sentence.

(e) Terms and conditions; regulations

The Secretary shall, by regulation, prescribe the terms and

conditions under which expenditures and payments may be made under

the provisions of this section.

(f) Housing in underserved areas

(1) Designation of underserved area

The Secretary shall designate as targeted underserved areas 100

counties and communities in each fiscal year that have severe,

unmet housing needs as determined by the Secretary. A county or

community shall be eligible for designation if, during the 5-year

period preceding the year in which the designation is made, it

has received an average annual amount of assistance under this

subchapter that is substantially lower than the average annual

amount of such assistance received during that 5-year period by

other counties and communities in the State that are eligible for

such assistance calculated on a per capita basis, and has -

(A) 20 percent or more of its population at or below the

poverty level; and

(B) 10 percent or more of its population residing in

substandard housing.

As used in this paragraph, the term "poverty level" has the

meaning given the term in section 5302(a)(9) of this title.

(2) Preferences

In selecting projects to receive assistance with amounts set

aside under paragraph (4), the Secretary shall give preference to

any project located in a county or community that has, at the

time of designation and as determined by the Secretary -

(A) 28 percent or more of its population at or below poverty

level; and

(B) 13 percent or more of its population residing in

substandard housing.

In designating underserved areas under paragraph (1), in each

fiscal year the Secretary shall designate not less than 5

counties or communities that contain tribal allotted or Indian

trust land.

(3) Outreach program and review

(A) Outreach

The Secretary shall publicize the availability to targeted

underserved areas of grants and loans under this subchapter and

promote, to the maximum extent feasible, efforts to apply for

those grants and loans for housing in targeted underserved

areas.

(B) Review

Upon the receipt of data from the 1990 decennial census, the

Secretary shall conduct a review of any designations made under

paragraph (1) and preferences given under paragraph (2) and the

eligibility of communities and counties for such designation

and preference, examining the effects of such data on such

eligibility. The Secretary shall submit to the Congress, not

later than 9 months after the availability of the data, a

report regarding the review, which shall include any

recommendations of the Secretary for modifications in the

standards for designation and preference.

(4) Set-aside for targeted underserved areas and colonias

(A) In general

The Secretary shall set aside and reserve for assistance in

targeted underserved areas an amount equal to 5.0 percent in

each fiscal year of the aggregate amount of lending authority

under sections 1472, 1474, 1484, 1485, and 1490d of this title.

During each fiscal year, the Secretary shall set aside from

amounts available for assistance under paragraphs (2) and (5)

of section 1490a(a) of this title, an amount that is

appropriate to provide assistance with respect to the lending

authority under sections 1484 and 1485 of this title that is

set aside for such fiscal year. The Secretary shall establish a

procedure to reallocate any assistance set aside in any fiscal

year for targeted underserved areas that has not been expended

during a reasonable period in such year for use in (i) colonias

that have applied for and are eligible for assistance under

subparagraph (B) or paragraph (7) and did not receive

assistance, and (ii) counties and communities eligible for

designation as targeted underserved areas but which were not so

designated. The procedure shall also provide that any

assistance reallocated under the preceding sentence that has

not been expended by a reasonable date established by the

Secretary (which shall be after the expiration of the period

referred to in the preceding sentence) shall be made available

and allocated under the laws and regulations relating to such

assistance, notwithstanding this subsection.

(B) Priority for colonias

(i) Notwithstanding the designation of counties and

communities as targeted underserved areas under paragraph (1)

and the provisions of section 1490 of this title, colonias

shall be eligible for assistance with amounts reserved under

subparagraph (A), as provided in this subparagraph.

(ii) In providing assistance from amounts reserved under this

paragraph in each fiscal year, the Secretary shall give

priority to any application for assistance to be used in, or in

close proximity to, and serving the residents of, a colonia

located in a State described under clause (iii). After the

Secretary has provided assistance under the priority for

colonias located in a State in an amount equal to 5 percent of

the total amount of assistance allocated under this subchapter

to such State in the fiscal year, the priority shall not apply

to any applications for colonias in such State.

(iii) This paragraph shall apply to any State for any fiscal

year following 2 fiscal years in which the State obligated the

total amount of assistance allocated to it under this

subchapter during each of such 2 fiscal years.

(5) List of underserved areas

The Secretary shall publish annually the current list of

targeted underserved areas in the Federal Register.

(6) Project preparation assistance

(A) In general

The Secretary may make grants to eligible applicants under

subparagraph (D) to promote the development of affordable

housing in targeted underserved areas and colonias.

(B) Use

A grant under this paragraph shall not exceed an amount that

the Secretary determines to equal the customary and reasonable

costs incurred in preparing an application for a loan under

section 1472, 1474, 1484, 1485, or 1490d of this title, or a

grant under section 1490m of this title (including

preapplication planning, site analysis, market analysis, and

other necessary technical assistance). The Secretary shall

adjust the loan or grant amount under such sections to take

account of project preparation costs that have been paid from

grant proceeds under this paragraph and that normally would be

reimbursed with proceeds of the loan or grant.

The Secretary shall approve a properly submitted application

or issue a written statement indicating the reasons for

disapproval not later than 60 days after the receipt of the

application.

(D) Eligibility

For purposes of this paragraph, an eligible applicant may be

a nonprofit organization or corporation, a community housing

development organization, State, unit of general local

government, or agency of a State or unit of general local

government.

(E) Availability of funding

Any amounts appropriated to carry out this paragraph shall

remain available until expended.

(7) Priority for colonias

(A) In general

In providing assistance under this subchapter in any fiscal

year described under subparagraph (B), each State in which

colonias are located shall give priority to any application for

assistance to be used in a colonia. The priority under this

subparagraph shall not apply in such State after 5 percent of

the assistance available in such fiscal year has been allocated

for colonias qualifying for the priority.

(B) Covered years

This paragraph shall apply to any fiscal year following 2

fiscal years in which the State did not obligate the total

amount of assistance allocated it under this subchapter during

each of such 2 fiscal years.

(8) "Colonia" defined

For purposes of this subsection, the term "colonia" means any

identifiable community that -

(A) is in the State of Arizona, California, New Mexico, or

Texas;

(B) is in the area of the United States within 150 miles of

the border between the United States and Mexico, except that

the term does not include any standard metropolitan statistical
