Amounts made available under the heading Department of Housing and Urban Development—Community Planning and Development—Community Development Fund in chapter 9 of title X of the Disaster Relief Appropriations Act, 2013 ( Public Law 113–2 , division A; 127 Stat. 36) shall remain available through September 30, 2025 for the liquidation of valid obligations of such funding. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, in the case of any grantee of funds referred to in subsection
(a)of this section that provides assistance that duplicates benefits available to a person for the same purpose from another source, the grantee itself shall— be subject to remedies for noncompliance; or bear responsibility for absorbing such cost of duplicative benefits and returning an amount equal to any duplicative benefits paid to the grantee’s funds available for use under such heading, unless the Secretary, upon the request of a grantee issues a public determination by publication in the Federal Register that it is not in the best interest of the Federal Government to pursue such remedies. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any grantee of funds referred to in subsection
(a)of this section may request a waiver from the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development of any recoupment by the Secretary of such funds for amounts owed by persons who have received such assistance from such funds and who have been defrauded, or after receiving assistance, have filed for bankruptcy, gone through a foreclosure procedure on property that received such assistance, or are deceased. If the grantee self-certifies to the Secretary in such request that it has verified that the individual conditions of each person it is requesting a waiver for meets one of the conditions specified in the preceding sentence, the Secretary may grant such waivers on the basis of grantee self-certification, issue a public determination by publication in the Federal Register that it is not in the best interest of the Federal Government to pursue such recoupment, and may conduct oversight to verify grantee self-certification and subject the grantee to remedies for noncompliance for any amounts that have not met such requirements. Amounts repurposed pursuant to this section that were previously designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant to the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 are designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
