SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 8, 2008 (73 FR 7575), this notice informed the public that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) would be soliciting comments from the public on the subject proposal. The Department will submit the proposed information collection to OMB for review, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended). This Notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of information to: (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) evaluate the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (3) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:40 Mar 31, 2008 Jkt 214001 automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. This Notice also lists the following information: Title of Proposal: Management Review of Public Housing Projects. OMB Control Number: 2577— Pending. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: On September 19, 2005 (70 FR 54983), HUD published a final rule amending the regulations of the Public Housing Operating Fund Program at 24 CFR part 990, which was developed through negotiated rulemaking. Part 990 provides a new formula for distributing operating subsidy to public housing agencies (PHAs) and establishes requirements for PHAs to convert to asset management. Subpart H of the part 990 regulations (§§ 990.255 to 990.290) establishes the requirements regarding asset management. Under § 990.260(a), PHAs that own and operate 250 or more dwelling rental units must operate using an asset management model consistent with the subpart H regulations. However, for the current fiscal year, that regulation is superseded by Section 225 of Title II of Division K of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2008, Pub. L. 110–161 (approved December 26, 2007). Under that law, PHAs that own or operate 400 or fewer units may elect to transition to asset management, but they are not required to do so. To support the transition to asset management and align HUD oversight with asset management, a new management review format is required to review PHAs on a project level, rather than PHA-wide. The forms are modeled after the asset management model consistent with the management norms in the broader multifamily industry. Agency form numbers: Forms HUD– 5834, HUD–5834–A, and HUD–5834–B. Members of affected public: Public housing agencies. Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the information collection including number of respondents: For form HUD–5834, Management Review of Public Housing Projects, there are 3,282 respondents annually with one response per respondent. Average time per response is .95 hours and the total burden hours are 3,118 hours. For form HUD–5834–A, Tenant File Review, there are 821 respondents annually with one response per respondent. Average time per response is .50 hours and the total burden hours are 410.50 hours. For form HUD–5834–B, Upfront Income PO 00000 Frm 00079 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Verification Review, there are 821 respondents annually with one response per respondent. Average time per response is .50 hours and the total burden hours are 410.50 hours. Status of the proposed information collection: New collection. Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended. Dated: March 26, 2008.

ACTION: Notice of meetings. mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES AGENCY: SUMMARY: This notice announces that the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) will be conducting tribal consultation meetings to obtain oral and written comments on potential facility management commercial activities and to determine whether these facility management activities should be: provided by a private sector provider through a contract; by government personnel through a letter of obligation; or by a public reimbursable source through a fee-for-service agreement within Indian Country. The proposed topic is the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A–76 standard study on the facilities management within BIA/BIE. The intended effect of the A–76 study is to review and select which facilities management functions will be considered for competition. The intended results are to improve performance, become more efficient through the A–76 process, and reduce overall program cost. The potential issues set forth will be described in a tribal consultation booklet issued prior to the meetings by BIA/BIE. DATES: The tribal consultation meeting dates are scheduled for: 1.
