To require approval from the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development for any Federal manufactured home and safety standards, and for other purposes.
This bill gives the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) primary authority to set federal safety and construction standards for manufactured homes. Federal agencies seeking to establish new standards must first submit proposals to HUD for approval and cannot implement them without that approval. HUD may reject proposed standards if they would significantly raise production costs, conflict with existing HUD standards, or for other reasons deemed appropriate. The bill directly affects manufactured home manufacturers (due to potential cost impacts) and federal agencies (requiring pre-approval for new standards).
