                 TITLE 24--HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
 
  CHAPTER V--OFFICE OF ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR COMMUNITY PLANNING AND 
        DEVELOPMENT, DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
 
PART 574_HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS WITH AIDS--Table of Contents
 
                     Subpart F_Grant Administration
 
Sec. 574.510  Environmental procedures and standards.

    (a) Activities under this part are subject to HUD environmental 
regulations in part 58 of this title, except that HUD will perform an 
environmental review in accordance with part 50 of this title for any 
competitive grant for Fiscal Year 2000.
    (b) The recipient, its project partners and their contractors may 
not acquire, rehabilitate, convert, lease, repair, dispose of, demolish, 
or construct property for a project under this part, or commit or expend 
HUD or local funds for such eligible activities under this part, until 
the responsible entity (as defined in Sec. 58.2 of this title) has 
completed the environmental review procedures required by part 58 and 
the environmental certification and RROF have been approved (or HUD has 
performed an environmental review and the recipient has received HUD 
approval of the property). HUD will not release grant funds if the 
recipient or any other party commits grant funds (i.e., incurs any costs 
or expenditures to be paid or reimbursed with such funds) before the 
recipient submits and HUD approves its RROF (where such submission is 
required).
    (c) For activities under a grant to a nonprofit entity that would 
generally be subject to review under part 58, HUD may make a finding in 
accordance with Sec. 58.11(d) and may itself perform the environmental 
review under the provisions of part 50 of this title if the recipient 
nonprofit entity objects in writing to the responsible entity's 
performing the review under part 58. Irrespective of whether the 
responsible entity in accord with part 58 (or HUD in accord with part 
50) performs the environmental review, the recipient shall supply all 
available, relevant information necessary for the responsible entity (or 
HUD, if applicable) to perform for each property any environmental 
review required by this part. The recipient also shall carry out 
mitigating measures required by the responsible entity (or HUD, if 
applicable) or select alternate eligible property.
