HUD and the Department of Energy (DOE) have announced an interagency agreement that will help pave the way for the Weatherization of HUD assisted and LIHTC properties. DOE has concluded that existing income verification procedures for HUD assisted, public housing, and LIHTC properties are sufficient for determining eligibility for the Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP). This agreement reduces a significant administrative obstacle to improving the energy efficiency and livability of these homes.
