    (a) PHAs, RMCs, AMEs. (1) Scoring of RMCs and AMEs. This part 

applies to



[[Page 262]]



PHAs, Resident Management Corporations (RMCs) and Alternate Management 

Entities (AMEs), as described in this section. As described in this 

section, this part is also applicable to RMCs that receive direct 

funding from HUD in accordance with section 20 of the 1937 Act (DF-

RMCs).

    (i) RMCs and DF-RMCs will be assessed and issued their own numeric 

scores under the PHAS based on the public housing developments or 

portions of public housing developments that they manage and the 

responsibilities they assume which can be scored under PHAS. References 

in this part to PHAs include RMCs and this part is applicable to RMCs 

unless stated otherwise. References in this part to RMCs include DF-RMCs 

and this part is applicable to DF-RMCs unless otherwise stated.

    (ii) AMEs are not issued PHAS scores. The performance of the AME 

contributes to the PHAS score of the PHA or PHAs for which they assumed 

management responsibilities.

    (2) PHA ultimate responsible entity under ACC, except where DF-RMC 

assumes management operations. (i) Because the PHA and not the RMC/AME 

is ultimately responsible to HUD under the ACC, the PHAS score of a PHA 

will be based on all of the developments covered by the ACC, including 

those with management operations assumed by an RMC or AME (including a 

court ordered receivership agreement, if applicable).

    (ii) A PHA's PHAS score will not be based on developments managed by 

a DF-RMC.

    (b) Implementation of PHAS. The regulations in this part are 

applicable to PHAs with fiscal years ending on and after June 30, 2000, 

unless HUD, through Federal Register, notice revises the implementation 

date to later date.

    (1) For PHAs that are not issued PHAS scores. Under certain 

circumstances, PHAs may not be issued PHAS scores. For these PHAs, in 

lieu of a PHAS score, HUD will issue the following:

    (i) PHAS Advisory Score. A PHA will be issued a PHAS advisory score 

for all PHAS indicators--Indicators 1 (Physical), 2 

(Financial), 3 (Management Operations), and 4 

(Resident Service and Satisfaction). The PHA must comply with the 

requirements of this part so that HUD may issue the advisory score. 

Physical inspections required to be conducted by PHAs under the 

Management Operations Indicator will be conducted using HUD uniform 

physical inspection protocol, unless HUD provides, through Federal 

Register notice, that PHAs may use HUD's Housing Quality Standards.

    (ii) Management Assessment Score. A PHA will receive an assessment 

score on the basis of HUD's assessment of the PHA's management 

operations in accordance with subpart D of this part.
