6 come and either homeless, in foster care, involved in
7 the juvenile justice system, unemployed, or not en-

17 that will enter into and administer the particular
18 Performance Partnership Agreement on behalf of that
19 agency and the other participating Federal agencies.

2 nected youth, or designed to prevent youth from dis-
3 connecting from school or work, that provide edu-
4 cation, training, employment, and other related social
5 services.
6 (c) PERFORMANCE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENTS.—
7 Federal agencies may use Federal discretionary funds, as
8 authorized in subsection (b), to participate in a Perform-
9 ance Partnership Pilot only in accordance with the terms
10 of a Performance Partnership Agreement that—
11 (1) is entered into between—
12 (A) the head of the lead Federal admin-
13 istering agency, on behalf of all of the partici-
14 pating Federal agencies (subject to the head of
15 the lead Federal administering agency having re-
16 ceived from the heads of each of the other partici-
17 pating agencies their written concurrence for en-
18 tering into the Agreement), and
19 (B) the respective representatives of all of
20 the State, local, or tribal governments that are
21 participating in the Agreement; and
22 (2) specifies, at a minimum, the following infor-
23 mation:
24 (A) the length of the Agreement (which shall
25 not extend beyond September 30, 2018);
•HR 3547 EAH

973
1 (B) the Federal programs and federally
2 funded services that are involved in the Pilot;
3 (C) the Federal discretionary funds that are
4 being used in the Pilot (by the respective Federal
5 account identifier, and the total amount from
6 such account that is being used in the Pilot),
7 and the period (or periods) of availability for ob-
8 ligation (by the Federal Government) of such
9 funds;
10 (D) the non-Federal funds that are involved
11 in the Pilot, by source (which may include pri-
12 vate funds as well as governmental funds) and
13 by amount;
14 (E) the State, local, or tribal programs that
15 are involved in the Pilot;
16 (F) the populations to be served by the
17 Pilot;
18 (G) the cost-effective Federal oversight pro-
19 cedures that will be used for the purpose of
20 maintaining the necessary level of accountability
21 for the use of the Federal discretionary funds;
22 (H) the cost-effective State, local, or tribal
23 oversight procedures that will be used for the
24 purpose of maintaining the necessary level of ac-
•HR 3547 EAH

974
1 countability for the use of the Federal discre-
2 tionary funds;
3 (I) the outcome (or outcomes) that the Pilot
4 is designed to achieve;
5 (J) the appropriate, reliable, and objective
6 outcome-measurement methodology that the Fed-
7 eral Government and the participating State,
8 local, or tribal governments will use, in carrying
9 out the Pilot, to determine whether the Pilot is
10 achieving, and has achieved, the specified out-
11 comes that the Pilot is designed to achieve;
12 (K) the statutory, regulatory, or adminis-
13 trative requirements related to Federal manda-
14 tory programs that are barriers to achieving im-
15 proved outcomes of the Pilot; and
16 (L) in cases where, during the course of the
17 Pilot, it is determined that the Pilot is not
18 achieving the specified outcomes that it is de-
19 signed to achieve,
20 (i) the consequences that will result
21 from such deficiencies with respect to the
22 Federal discretionary funds that are being
23 used in the Pilot, and
24 (ii) the corrective actions that will be
25 taken in order to increase the likelihood that
•HR 3547 EAH

975
1 the Pilot, upon completion, will have
2 achieved such specified outcomes.
3 (d) AGENCY HEAD DETERMINATIONS.—A Federal
4 agency may participate in a Performance Partnership
5 Pilot (including by providing Federal discretionary funds
6 that have been appropriated to such agency) only upon the
7 written determination by the head of such agency that the
8 agency’s participation in such Pilot—
9 (1) will not result in denying or restricting the
10 eligibility of any individual for any of the services
11 that (in whole or in part) are funded by the agency’s
12 programs and Federal discretionary funds that are
13 involved in the Pilot, and
14 (2) based on the best available information, will
15 not otherwise adversely affect vulnerable populations
16 that are the recipients of such services.
17 In making this determination, the head of the agency may
18 take into consideration the other Federal discretionary
19 funds that will be used in the Pilot as well as any non-
20 Federal funds (including from private sources as well as
21 governmental sources) that will be used in the Pilot.
22 (e) TRANSFER AUTHORITY.—For the purpose of car-
23 rying out the Pilot in accordance with the Performance
24 Partnership Agreement, and subject to the written approval
25 of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget,
•HR 3547 EAH

976
1 the head of each participating Federal agency may transfer
2 Federal discretionary funds that are being used in the Pilot
3 to an account of the lead Federal administering agency that
4 includes Federal discretionary funds that are being used in
5 the Pilot. Subject to the waiver authority under subsection
6 (f), such transferred funds shall remain available for the
7 same purposes for which such funds were originally appro-
8 priated: Provided, That such transferred funds shall remain
9 available for obligation by the Federal Government until
10 the expiration of the period of availability for those Federal
11 discretionary funds (which are being used in the Pilot) that
12 have the longest period of availability, except that any such
13 transferred funds shall not remain available beyond Sep-
14 tember 30, 2018.
15 (f) WAIVER AUTHORITY.—In connection with a Fed-
16 eral agency’s participation in a Performance Partnership
17 Pilot, and subject to the other provisions of this section (in-
18 cluding subsection (e)), the head of the Federal agency to
19 which the Federal discretionary funds were appropriated
20 may waive (in whole or in part) the application, solely to
21 such discretionary funds that are being used in the Pilot,
22 of any statutory, regulatory, or administrative requirement
23 that such agency head—
•HR 3547 EAH

977
1 (1) is otherwise authorized to waive (in accord-
2 ance with the terms and conditions of such other au-
3 thority), and
4 (2) is not otherwise authorized to waive, pro-
5 vided that in such case the agency head shall—
6 (A) not waive any requirement related to
7 nondiscrimination, wage and labor standards, or
8 allocation of funds to State and substate levels;
9 (B) issue a written determination, prior to
10 granting the waiver, with respect to such discre-
11 tionary funds that the granting of such waiver
12 for purposes of the Pilot—
13 (i) is consistent with both—
14 (I) the statutory purposes of the
15 Federal program for which such discre-
16 tionary funds were appropriated, and
17 (II) the other provisions of this
18 section, including the written deter-
19 mination by the agency head issued
20 under subsection (d);
21 (ii) is necessary to achieve the out-
22 comes of the Pilot as specified in the Per-
23 formance Partnership Agreement, and is no
24 broader in scope than is necessary to
25 achieve such outcomes; and
•HR 3547 EAH

978
1 (iii) will result in either—
2 (I) realizing efficiencies by sim-
3 plifying reporting burdens or reducing
4 administrative barriers with respect to
5 such discretionary funds, or
6 (II) increasing the ability of indi-
7 viduals to obtain access to services that
8 are provided by such discretionary
9 funds; and
10 (C) provide at least 60 days advance writ-
11 ten notice to the Committees on Appropriations
12 and other committees of jurisdiction in the
14 SEC. 527. Each Federal agency, or in the case of an
15 agency with multiple bureaus, each bureau (or operating
16 division) funded under this Act that has research and devel-
17 opment expenditures in excess of $100,000,000 per year
18 shall develop a Federal research public access policy that
19 provides for—
20 (1) the submission to the agency, agency bureau,
21 or designated entity acting on behalf of the agency, a
22 machine-readable version of the author’s final peer-re-
23 viewed manuscripts that have been accepted for publi-
24 cation in peer-reviewed journals describing research
•HR 3547 EAH

979
1 supported, in whole or in part, from funding by the
2 Federal Government;
3 (2) free online public access to such final peer-
4 reviewed manuscripts or published versions not later
5 than 12 months after the official date of publication;
6 and
7 (3) compliance with all relevant copyright laws.

12 determined by the NRC based on affordability and the

16 assistance primarily to States and areas with high
17 rates of defaults and foreclosures to help eliminate the
18 default and foreclosure of mortgages of owner-occupied
19 single-family homes that are at risk of such fore-
20 closure. Other than areas with high rates of defaults
21 and foreclosures, grants may also be provided to ap-
22 proved counseling intermediaries based on a geo-
23 graphic analysis of the Nation by the NRC which de-
24 termines where there is a prevalence of mortgages that

15 vided such assistance that shall consist of activities
16 that are likely to prevent foreclosures and result in
17 the long-term affordability of the mortgage retained
18 pursuant to such activity or another positive outcome
19 for the homeowner. No funds made available under
20 this paragraph may be provided directly to lenders or
21 homeowners to discharge outstanding mortgage bal-
22 ances or for any other direct debt reduction payments.
23 (3) The use of mortgage foreclosure mitigation
24 assistance by approved counseling intermediaries and
25 State Housing Finance Agencies shall involve a rea-
•HR 3547 EAH

6 of the mortgage by a non-Federal third party, coun-
7 seling and advice of all likely restructuring and refi-
8 nancing strategies or the approval of a work-out
9 strategy by all interested parties.

11 total funds under this paragraph to its own charter
12 members with expertise in foreclosure prevention
13 counseling, subject to a certification by the NRC that
14 the procedures for selection do not consist of any pro-
15 cedures or activities that could be construed as an un-
16 acceptable conflict of interest or have the appearance
17 of impropriety.
18 (5) HUD-approved counseling entities and State
19 Housing Finance Agencies receiving funds under this
20 paragraph shall have demonstrated experience in suc-
21 cessfully working with financial institutions as well
22 as borrowers facing default, delinquency and fore-
23 closure as well as documented counseling capacity,

25 positive outcomes with documented counseling plans

1 (including post mortgage foreclosure mitigation coun-
2 seling), loan workout agreements and loan modifica-
3 tion agreements. NRC may use other criteria to dem-
4 onstrate capacity in underserved areas.
5 (6) Of the total amount made available under
6 this paragraph, up to $3,000,000 may be made avail-
7 able to build the mortgage foreclosure and default
8 mitigation counseling capacity of counseling inter-
9 mediaries through NRC training courses with HUD-
10 approved counseling intermediaries and their part-
11 ners, except that private financial institutions that
12 participate in NRC training shall pay market rates
13 for such training.
14 (7) Of the total amount made available under
15 this paragraph, up to 5 percent may be used for asso-
16 ciated administrative expenses for the NRC to carry
17 out activities provided under this section.

20 tising, and training, as determined by the NRC.
