SOURCE: 44 FR 1606, Jan. 5, 1979, unless oth-erwise noted. Subpart AGeneral 10.1 Policy. It is the policy of the Department of Housing and
5、Urban Development to provide for public participation in rule-making with respect to all HUD pro-grams and functions, including matters that relate to public property, loans, grants, benefits, or contracts even though such matters would not other-wise be subject to rulemaking by law or Executive pol
6、icy. The Department therefore publishes notices of proposed rulemaking in the FEDERAL REGISTER and gives interested persons an oppor-tunity to participate in the rulemaking through submission of written data, views, and arguments with or without opportunity for oral presentation. It is the policy of
7、 the Department that its notices of proposed rulemaking are to afford the public not less than sixty days for submission of comments. For some rules the Secretary will employ additional methods of inviting public participation. These methods include, but are not limited to, publishing Ad-vance Notic
8、es of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR), conducting public surveys, and convening public forums or panels. An ANPR will be used to solicit public comment early in the rulemaking proc-ess for significant rules unless the Sec-retary grants an exception based upon legitimate and pressing time con-straints. Un
9、less required by statute, notice and public procedure will be omitted if the Department determines in a particular case or class of cases that notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary or contrary to the public interest. In a particular case, the reasons for the determination shall
10、be stated in the rulemaking docu-ment. Notice and public procedure may also be omitted with respect to state-ments of policy, interpretative rules, rules governing the Departments orga-nization or its own internal practices or procedures, or if a statute expressly so authorizes. A final substantive
11、rule will be published not less than 30 days before its effective date, unless it grants or recognizes an exemption or relieves a restriction or unless the rule itself states good cause for taking ef-fect upon publication or less than 30 days thereafter. Statements of policy and interpretative rules
12、 will usually be made effective on the date of publica-tion. 44 FR 1606, Jan. 5, 1979, as amended at 47 FR 56625, Dec. 20, 1982 10.2 Definitions. (a) Rule or Regulation means all or part of any Departmental statement of general or particular applicability and future effect designed to: (1) Imple-men
