Operative Text
These procedures are subject to Federal Regulations including 24 CFR Part 813.108 and 24 CFR Part 880.610 and 24 CFR Part 883.
Section 8 of 99-346 Code of Maine Rules ch. 5 establishes that the state-level procedures governing this program operate within a broader federal regulatory framework, specifically the requirements set out in 24 CFR Parts 813, 880, and 883. Where federal rules apply, they take precedence over or work alongside the state procedures described elsewhere in this chapter. This means that any action taken under these procedures must be consistent with the applicable federal housing regulations.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating under the procedures described in 99-346 Code of Maine Rules ch. 5 § 8 should be aware that compliance obligations extend beyond state-level rules to include federal regulations such as 24 CFR Parts 813, 880, and 883. Operators generally review both the state procedures and the referenced federal regulations together to ensure their practices align with all applicable requirements. Familiarity with the federal framework is a standard part of maintaining a compliant operation under this program.

Tenants whose housing is governed by the procedures in 99-346 Code of Maine Rules ch. 5 § 8 have protections that come from both Maine rules and the federal regulations incorporated by reference, including 24 CFR Parts 813, 880, and 883. If a concern arises about how these procedures are being applied, tenants may consider reaching out to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which oversees the federal programs referenced in this provision. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with federally assisted housing programs can also help explain how these layered rules may apply in a given situation.
