(a)Notification of finding of substantial default. If the PHA is found in substantial default, the PHA shall be notified of such determination in writing. Except in situations as described in paragraph
(d)of this section, the PHA shall have an opportunity to respond to the written determination, and an opportunity to cure the default, if a cure of the default is determined appropriate by HUD. The determination of substantial default shall be transmitted to the Executive Director of the PHA, the Chairperson of the Board of the PHA, and the appointing authority(ies) of the PHA's Board of Commissioners, and shall:
(1)Identify the specific statute, regulation, covenants, conditions, or agreements of which the PHA is determined to be in violation;
(2)Identify the specific events, occurrences, or conditions that constitute the violation;
(3)Specify the time period, which shall be a period of 10 but not more than 30 days, during which the PHA shall have an opportunity to demonstrate that the determination or finding is not substantively accurate, if required;
(4)If determined by HUD to be appropriate, provide for an opportunity to cure and specify the time period for the cure; and
(5)Notify the PHA that, absent a satisfactory response in accordance with paragraph
(b)of this section, action shall be taken as determined by HUD to be appropriate.
(b)Receipt of notification and response. Upon receipt of the notification described in paragraph
(a)of this section, the PHA may submit a response, in writing and within the specified time period, demonstrating:
(1)The description of events, occurrences, or conditions described in the written determination of substantial default is in error, or establish that the events, occurrences, or conditions described in the written determination of substantial default do not constitute noncompliance with the statute, regulation, covenants, conditions, or agreements that are cited in the notification under paragraph
(a)of this section; or
(2)If any opportunity to cure is provided, that the violations have been cured or will be cured in the time period specified by HUD.
(c)Waiver of notification and the opportunity to respond. A PHA may waive, in writing, receipt of written notification from HUD of a finding of substantial default and the opportunity to respond to such finding. HUD may then immediately proceed with the remedies as provided in § 907.7.
(d)Emergency situations. A PHA shall not be afforded the opportunity to respond to a written determination or to cure a substantial default in any case where:
(1)HUD determines that conditions exist that pose an imminent threat to the life, health, or safety of public housing residents or residents of the surrounding neighborhood; or
(2)The events or conditions precipitating the default are determined to be the result of criminal or fraudulent activity.
