Background and Authority

    Pursuant to Section 10(a)(2) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act 
(Pub. L. 92-463), HUD is giving notice to reestablish the charter for 
the Housing Counseling Federal Advisory Committee (HCFAC). The HCFAC 
was established to advise HUD's Office of Housing Counseling (OHC) to 
meet its mission to provide individuals and families with the knowledge 
they need to obtain, sustain, and improve their housing through a 
strong national network of HUD-approved housing counseling agencies and 
HUD-certified counselors. The HCFAC, however, shall have no role in 
reviewing or awarding of OHC housing counseling grants and procurement 
contracts. See the HCFAC Web site for details at https://www.hudexchange.info/programs/housing-counseling/federal-advisory-committee/.

    Dated: April 12, 2016.
Edward L. Golding,
Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Housing.
