HUD's Web Publication Schedule

Information by State  Print version

Section 207(f)(2) of the E-Government Act of 2002 requires federal agencies to develop an inventory of information to be published on their websites, establish a schedule for publishing information, make those schedules available for public comment, and post the schedules and priorities on the website.

HUD has a long-standing policy to put as much information as possible and practical on its website, and we believe we already have posted everything that we can. However, HUD web managers surveyed the Freedom of Information Act Officers throughout the Department and HUD staff who routinely respond to customer questions via phone and email, asking them to list any frequently requested information that is not already available on HUD's website. Based on that review, we intend to publish the information listed below.

If new information becomes available at HUD that is important to the public, we are committed to putting it on our website. If you have suggestions for additional information we should have on HUD's website, please let us know.
