must submit a substantial amendment to incorporate its FY 21 allocation or any future allocations. The grantee must submit the substantial amendment via the DRGR system by the deadline in section II.A. of this Updated Program Notice. In the DRGR system, grantees must ensure any subsequent allocations are fully budgeted in the amendment to the RHP Action Plan prior to submission to HUD. The process for the substantial amendment to the RHP Action Plan for a subsequent allocation is as follows:
1. The grantee amends its RHP Action Plan to incorporate each substantial amendment. The substantial amendment shall include the HUDapproved RHP Action Plan and the modifications made to it by the substantial amendment. A grantees substantial amendments to its RHP
Action Plan must comply with the requirements in II.H. of the Program Notice, as amended by this Updated Program Notice, and include, at a minimum, the use of the total amount of RHP funds, including prior and new allocations, in the substantial amendment. The grantee may modify existing activities or add new activities to the HUD-approved RHP Action Plan in a substantial amendment.
2. The grantee publishes each substantial amendment to its RHP
Action Plan in accordance with the grantees adopted CPP. The grantee shall provide opportunity for public comment and public hearings, if any, on the substantial amendment and consider and summarize public comments received, in accordance with the requirements described in steps 2 and 3
in section II.H. of the Program Notice.
3. The grantee submits its RHP Action Plan to HUD. A complete action plan submission includes items i through xii in section II.H. of the Program Notice.
4. HUD will review the substantial amendment to the RHP Action Plan in accordance with 24 CFR 91.500 and this Updated Program Notice and the Program Notice.
5. Once HUD accepts the substantial amendment to the RHP Action Plan for the subsequent allocations, HUD and the grantee will enter into a grant agreement for each new allocation described in the substantial amendment.
HUD transmits the RHP grant agreement to the grantee, and the grantee signs and returns the grant agreement for HUDs signature.
6. HUD will establish the grantees lines of credit to reflect the amount of new RHP funds.
7. The grantee may draw down funds from each grants line of credit, consistent with the applicable draw

down requirements, after the Responsible Entity completes applicable environmental reviews pursuant to 24
CFR part 58 and, as applicable, receives from HUD or the State the Authority to Use Grant Funds AUGF form.
C. Timeliness, Period of Performance, and Closeout RHP funds for FY 21 and any subsequent allocations are subject to the same requirements as those for FY 20
allocations provided in the Program Notice, as amended by this Updated Program Notice. Each grant is subject to its RHP expenditure deadline in accordance with the applicable executed grant agreement. Pursuant to the grant agreement, a grantee must expend RHP funds for each RHP grant before the end of the grants period of performance. All RHP funds must be expended before the end of the period of performance on September 1 of the seventh Federal fiscal year from the fiscal year of the appropriation, which is 29 days before the RHP appropriation account is cancelled in accordance with 31 U.S.C. 1552a, 24 CFR 570.200k, and 24 CFR 570.480h. For example, if Congress appropriates funds under Section 8071 of the SUPPORT Act for fiscal year 2022, all FY 22 funds must be expended before the end of the period of performance on September 1, 2029. Grant funds are not available for obligation and expenditure after the period of performance.
HUD, via the DRGR system, will block remaining RHP funds after the grant expenditure deadline to prevent grantees from drawing down funds past the grants period of performance. The grantee will be able to continue drawing down funds from its lines of credit for grants still within their period of performance until the expenditure deadline for each such grant has been reached.
Additionally, section 8071c1 of the SUPPORT Act requires grantees to expend at least 30 percent of such funds within one year of the date funds become available to the grantee for obligation. The date of HUDs execution of the grant agreement is used for this purpose. Pursuant to 24 CFR
570.496b states and 570.910b5
District of Columbia, any amount of funds that exceeds 70% of a grant allocation not expended by such date is subject to cancellation.
Pursuant to section II.P. of the Program Notice, HUD will close out RHP grants in accordance with the 24
CFR 570.489o, which imposes the closeout requirements of 2 CFR part 200. HUD notes that those closeout
