62Office of Water Project ReviewRelocation Assistance BenefitsConcern: Because the High Hazard Area Risk Reduction Project(HARP) had been described as a “voluntary” buy-out effort,homeowners who sell their property may not be eligible forrelocation assistance benefits under the Uniform RelocationAssistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (Public Law91-646, as amended; URA)Reason: The URA requires payment of relocation assistancebenefits to homeowners that are displaced by the acquisition oftheir property. A homeowner who sells is not a “displaced person”under the Act if the acquiring agency will not acquire the property ifnegotiations fail (and the homeowner is so advised in writing).
63Office of Water Project ReviewRelocation Assistance Benefits (cont.)Resolution: Because the use of eminent domain is not excluded,the project is not considered “voluntary”, residential sellers may beconsidered “displaced persons,” and relocation benefits will bepaid to homeowners (and tenants) where other eligibility criteriaare met. This approach is consistent with our approach in otherCorps non-structural projects with buy-out components.Resolution Impact: Concern resolved
