The following legislatively mandated set-asides of funds are part
of the National office set-aside:
1. Nonprofit Set-aside An amount of $10,288,987 has been set aside

of the underserved 100 most needy counties or colonias as defined in
section 509(f) of the Housing Act of 1949 as amended. Priority will be

aside for matching with projects in which an active State sponsored RA
program is available. The State RA program must be comparable to the
RHS RA program.
E. Repair and Rehabilitation Loans
Tenant health and safety continues to be a top priority. Repair and
rehabilitation funds must be first targeted to RRH facilities that have
physical conditions that effect the health and safety of tenants and
then made available to facilities that have deferred maintenance. All
funds will be held in the National office and will be distributed based
upon indicated rehabilitation needs in the MFH survey conducted in
September 1999.
F. Designated Reserve for Equity Loans
An amount of $5 million has been designated for the equity loan
preservation incentive described in RD Instruction 1965-E. The $5
million will be further divided into $4 million for equity loan
requests currently on the pending funding list and $1 million to
facilitate the transfer of properties from for-profit owners to
nonprofit corporations and public bodies. Funds for such transfers
would be authorized only for for-profit owners who are currently on the
pending funding list who agree to transfer to nonprofit corporations or
public bodies rather than to remain on the pending list. If
insufficient transfer requests are generated to utilize the full $1
million set aside for nonprofit and public body transfers, the balance
will revert to the existing pending equity loan funding list.
