Sec. 58.33  Emergencies.

    (a) In the cases of emergency, disaster or imminent threat to health 
and safety which warrant the taking of an action with significant 
environmental impact, the provisions of 40 CFR 1506.11 shall apply.
    (b) If funds are needed on an emergency basis and adherence to 
separate comment periods would prevent the giving of assistance during a 
Presidentially declared disaster, or during a local emergency that has 
been declared by the chief elected official of the responsible entity 
who has proclaimed that there is an immediate need for public action to 
protect the public safety, the combined Notice of FONSI and Notice of 
Intent to Request Release of Funds (NOI/RROF) may be disseminated and/or 
published simultaneously with the submission of the RROF. The combined 
Notice of FONSI and NOI/RROF shall state that the funds are needed on an 
emergency basis due to a declared disaster and that the comment periods 
have been combined. The Notice shall also invite commenters to submit 
their comments to both HUD and the responsible entity issuing the notice 
to ensure that these comments will receive full consideration.
