Sensor data is kept until the Secretary says the program and its evaluation are done
The document says “shall”Who acts: public housing agencies, owners of covered federally assisted rental dwelling unitsHow: statuteSec. 106 in the PDF
What the document says
“Data collected from temperature sensors acquired and installed by public housing agencies and owners of covered federally assisted rental dwelling units under this section shall be retained until the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development notifies the public housing agency or owner that the pilot program and the evaluation of the pilot program are complete.”
The section requires that data from sensors bought and installed under it be kept until the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development tells the agency or owner that the pilot program and its evaluation are finished.
What the document actually says
“Data collected from temperature sensors acquired and installed by public housing agencies and owners of covered federally assisted rental dwelling units under this section shall be retained until the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development notifies the public housing agency or owner that the pilot program and the evaluation of the pilot program are complete.”
That sentence, in plain words
The readings from the sensors must be kept. They are kept until the housing agency says the test and the study of it are done.
What this is about
Data is the record of what the sensors measured. The study needs it, so it cannot be thrown out early. The housing agency decides when that time comes.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
