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 calendar year 2008, that
regulation is superseded by § 225 of
Title II of Division K of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2008, Public Law
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.
The Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2008, Public Law 110–161, also
provided ‘‘ * * * $5,940,000 for
competitive grants and contracts to third
parties for the provision of technical
assistance to public housing agencies

related to the transition and

management in public housing.’’ The
contract now in effect will provide for
web-based training, on-site seminars
and on-site technical assistance to assist
PHAs in implementing asset
management. The Training Evaluation
Form will be used by the Office of
Public and Indian Housing to determine
how the training and technical
assistance can be improved to meet PHA
needs.
Agency form number, if applicable:
Pending.
Members of affected public: Public
housing agencies.
Estimation of the total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents: The estimated number of
respondents is 29,288 annually with one
response per respondent. The average
number for each response is .033 hours,
for a total reporting burden of 966
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,
