Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for HUD’s Fiscal Year 2012
Indian Community Development Block Grant Program
AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of Funding Availability for HUD’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2012 Indian Community Development Block Grant (ICDBG) Program.
SUMMARY: Today’s posting provides information and instructions for the FY2012 ICDBG program subject to Congress appropriating funding for this program. This Notice is comprised of both the Notice of HUD’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2012 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA), Policy Requirements and General Section (General Section) to HUD’s FY2012 NOFAs for Discretionary Programs posted on www.Grants.gov on September 19, 2011, and this program section to the NOFA. Because FY2012 funding has not been appropriated for this program, the availability of any such funding for this program is contingent upon future Congressional action. Funds that are carried over from previous fiscal years or are recaptured may also be used for grant awards under this NOFA. HUD’s ICDBG Program is authorized by Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, and the ICDBG program regulations at 24 CFR Part 1003. In addition to the application requirements set forth in this document, applicants must also comply with applicable requirements established in the General Section.
DATES: The application deadline date is 11:59:59 p.m. eastern time on January 4, 2012. Applications must be received by Grants.gov no later than 11:59:59 p.m. on the application deadline date. HUD may modify the due date for this Notice to the extent a final appropriations bill for FY2012 is enacted. HUD will issue a technical correction to this NOFA if appropriations are enacted that require HUD to modify the funding criteria or application requirements, or if HUD determines that adjustments to estimated award amounts or timelines are necessary. Any such technical correction will provide detailed instructions for applicants to permit them to resubmit the application to address the revised NOFA requirements.
