Operating Fund Program; Notice of Intent To Establish a Negotiated RulemakingCommittee and Notice of First Meeting; Correction

AGENCY:

Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing, HUD.

ACTION:

Correction.

SUMMARY:

On January 28, 2004, HUD published a notice announcing its intent to establish a negotiated rulemaking advisory committee under the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The purpose of the Committee is to provide advice and recommendations on developing a rule for effectuating changes to the Public Housing Operating Fund Program in response to the Harvard University Graduate School of Design's "Public Housing Operating Cost Study." Among other information, the January 28, 2004, notice contains a list of the proposed committee members, and solicits public comment on the proposed membership of the committee. The list of committee members contains a typographical error. Specifically, the January 28, 2004, notice incorrectly identifies the location of the Alameda County Housing Authority as Alameda, California. The housing authority is located in the city of Hayward, California. This document makes the necessary correction.
