Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Revisions; Extension of Comment Period

AGENCY:

Department of Housing and Urban Development; Office of General Counsel.

ACTION:

Interim final rule; request for comments; extension of comment period.

SUMMARY:

On March 3, 2025, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published in the Federal Register an interim final rule entitled "Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Revisions." The interim final rule provided for a 60-day comment period, which would have ended May 2, 2025. However, following a technical problem with regulations.gov that appeared to prohibit the electronic submission of comments on this rule beginning on or about April 28, HUD has determined that a seven-day extension of the comment period, until May 9, 2025, is appropriate. This extension will allow interested persons who may have tried unsuccessfully to submit comments additional time to do so.

DATES:

The comment period for the interim final rule published on March 3, 2025, at 90 FR 11020, is extended. Comments should be received on or before May 9, 2025.

ADDRESSES:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On March 3, 2025, at 90 FR 11020, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published in the Federal Register an interim final rule entitled "Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Revisions."

The interim final rule provided for a 60-day comment period, which would have ended May 2, 2025. However, following a migration performed on the Federal eRulemaking Portal at www.regulations.gov on or about April 28, HUD discovered that the public comments were not being updated. HUD subsequently discovered that the ability to submit a public comment at www.regulations.gov did not appear to be operational. HUD informed staff at the Federal eRulemaking Portal and the issue has been resolved. Nevertheless, HUD has determined that a seven-day extension of the comment period, until May 9, 2025, is appropriate. This extension will allow interested persons who may have tried unsuccessfully to submit comments additional time to do so.

Amanda Wahlig,

Acting Associate General Counsel for Legislation and Regulations.
