Minimize the burden of the collection of

respond; including through the use of
appropriate automated collection
techniques or other forms of information

This Notice also lists the following
information:
Title of Proposal: Application for
Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard
Control Grant Programs and Quality
Assurance Plans.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2539–0015.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use:
This information collection is
required in conjunction with the
issuance of Notices of Funding
Availability for approximately
$150,000,000 for Healthy Homes and
Lead Hazard Control Programs that are
authorized under Title X of the Housing
and Community Development Act of
1992, Public Law 102–550, section
1011, and other legislation.
After the award of grants, HUD’s
Office of Healthy Homes and Lead
Hazard Control requires its Healthy
Homes Demonstration, Healthy Homes
Technical Studies grantees, and Lead
Technical Studies grantees which are
conducting research or significant
evaluation activities, to submit a Quality
Assurance Plan (QAP) to the Office for
approval before they initiate data
collection. This requirement also
applies to Office of Healthy Homes and
Lead Hazard Control contractors who
conduct such research or evaluation
activities. This requirement has been
established because quality assurance
procedures ensure the accuracy and
validity of data. The use of quality
assurance plan templates helps to
ensure that quality assurance activities
are well planned and thorough, and
standardizes the formatting of the plans,
which aids both the respondents in plan
development and HUD staff in their
review. The use of different templates
for technical studies and demonstration
projects was designed to reduce
respondent burden by requiring more
detailed information only for the
technical studies (research) projects,
consistent with their more rigorous
quality assurance requirements.
