Issued by Housing and Urban Development Department
Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the Department of the Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO), is modifying a system of records titled, "HUD Central Accounting and Program System (HUDCAPS)". HUDCAPS is HUD's subsidiary ledger system, and provides the capability of capturing, recording, and summarizing HUD's financial results of operations across all business areas. The Department proposes to update the system of records to reflect current program needs and operational practices. This system of records allows HUD to collect and maintain records on Public Indian Housing (PIH) Section 8 recipients and grantees for the Section 8 Voucher program. The updates revise system elements to improve accuracy, transparency, and alignment with current systems. Changes are being made to: System Name and Number, Purpose of the System, Categories of Records in the System, System Manager, Record Source Categories, Routine Uses, Policies and Practices for Storage of Records, Policies and Practices for Retrieval of Records, Administrative/Physical/Technical Safeguards, Record Access Procedures, Contesting Record Procedures, and Notification Procedures. All modifications are outlined in the Supplementary Information section below.
