Here, HUD’s determination that Washington’s state-court eviction procedures met HUD’s due process requirements has all the hallmarks of a rule. HUD’s determination had no immediate, concrete effect on anyone, but merely permitted PHAs to evict tenants in the future without providing them with informal grievance hearings. At the same time, the determination affected the rights of a broad category of individuals not yet identified. Before the decision was *449made, all public housing tenants in Washington had a statutory right to a pre-eviction grievance 'hearing. After the decision, no public housing tenant accused of certain criminal activity had such a right. We conclude that HUD’s determination was a rule.
