## Abstract

This final rule makes technical amendments to several of HUD's regulations that affect its assisted housing programs. These amendments make the following changes: revise language in a rule governing admission preferences in the assisted housing programs to make it more general, to cover all the Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments programs it was intended to cover, as evidenced by the Section 8 regulations that cross-reference the preferences rule; restore language regarding ``total development cost'' that was removed from regulations covering the public housing development program when an interim rule expired on May 29, 1995; restore language stating review criteria for performance under modernization standards; and conform the requirements for paid-off and conveyed Turnkey III units in public housing to those in the Indian housing program. These changes rectify problems that occurred inadvertently in previous rulemakings.
