24 C.F.R. § 1000.534 What constitutes substantial noncompliance?
Title 24 - Housing and Urban Development
HUD will review the circumstances of each noncompliance with NAHASDA and the regulations on a case-by-case basis to determine if the noncompliance is substantial. This review is a two step process. First, there must be a noncompliance with NAHASDA or these regulations. Second, the noncompliance must be substantial. A noncompliance is substantial if: (a) The noncompliance has a material effect on the recipient meeting its major goals and objectives as described in its Indian Housing Plan; (b) The noncompliance represents a material pattern or practice of activities constituting willful noncompliance with a particular provision of NAHASDA or the regulations, even if a single instance of noncompliance would not be substantial; (c) The noncompliance involves the obligation or expenditure of a material amount of the NAHASDA funds budgeted by the recipient for a material activity; or (d) The noncompliance places the housing program at substantial risk of fraud, waste or abuse.
