    The memorandum from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) addresses the Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) related to the Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program for Fiscal Year 2025. It confirms that updates in the new Notice of Funding Availability (FR-6900-N-13) do not significantly alter the previous notice (FR-6800-N-13), thus negating the need for a new Environmental Impact Statement. The program aims to reduce lead hazards in housing and is funded through appropriations from preceding federal legislation. The memorandum, signed by various HUD officials, attaches the relevant guidance and confirms the ongoing applicability of previous assessments. This document serves to inform stakeholders about funding and environmental considerations for lead hazard reduction efforts, emphasizing the continuity of established environmental evaluations in light of updated funding announcements.

A certification section mandates the signature of an authorized representative, affirming the accuracy of the information under penalty of perjury.
