## Abstract

The Rural Housing Service (RHS) is removing its regulation that contains procedures and requirements for complying with the Davis- Bacon and related Acts. Under the reorganization of the Department of Agriculture, RHS is the successor to the former Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) for the administration of rural housing programs under title V of the Housing Act of 1949. Regulations regarding Planning and Performing Development Work, and Farm Labor Housing Grants are also impacted by this rule. This regulation is being removed since the portions thereof that contain information the public needs to know are published in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5. Therefore, this action will remove duplication of regulations. This rule, however, will not remove or change the requirement for certain RHS-financed construction projects to comply with the Davis-Bacon and related Acts.
