Summary

On October 5, 2016, HUD published a document in response to a court remand, which was miscategorized and placed in the "proposed rules" section of the Federal Register. See 81 FR 69012 (Oct. 5, 2016). The October 5, 2016, document is neither a proposed rule, nor is it related to a proposed rule. Rather, the October 5, 2016, document responds to a court remand on a final rule by supplementing HUD's responses to certain insurance industry comments that HUD responded to in the preamble to its final rule, entitled "Implementation of the Fair Housing Act's Discriminatory Effects Standard," 78 FR 11460 (Feb. 15, 2013). HUD issues this correction to clarify that the published document was related to a final rule and thus should have been categorized and published in the "rules and regulations" section of the Federal Register.
