The
National Flood Insurance Reform Act
(NFIRA) of 1994 (Pub. L. 103–325,
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
section 541) requires that a community
rating system be established. This
ratings system is a voluntary program
for communities and it would provide a
method by which flood mitigation
activities engaged in by these
communities could be measured. The
effect of this mitigation activity would
reduce the exposure of the communities
to damages resulting from flooding and
in turn reducing the loss incurred as a
result of this flooding. To encourage
participation, discounts on flood
insurance are offered within
communities that successfully complete
qualified mitigation actions, and the
community ratings system provides the
ability to measure these actions and to
recertify the communities in successive
years.
Collection of Information
Title: Community Rating System
(CRS) Program—Application
Worksheets and Commentary.
Type of Information Collection:
Revision of a currently approved
information collection.
OMB Number: 1660–0022.
Form Titles and Numbers: FEMA
Form 086–0–23, Community Rating
System Application Form and Manual;
086–0–23A, Community Rating System
Annual Recertification.
Abstract: The CRS Application
Worksheet and Commentary are used by
communities that participate in the
National Flood Insurance Program’s
(NFIP) Community Rating System (CRS)
to document the activities that
communities have undertaken to
mitigate against future flood losses. The
CRS application and activity worksheets
provide a step-by-step process for
communities to follow in their effort to
achieve the maximum amount of
discount on flood insurance premiums.
CRS is a voluntary program where flood
insurance costs are reduced in
communities that implement practices,
such as building codes and public
education activities, that are considered
to reduce risks of flooding and promote
purchase of flood insurance.

OMB Control Number: 2535–0106.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: HUD
assesses all of the management
operations data required under section
6(j) of the Act in a format comprising six
sections or sub-indicators. The PHAS
regulation requires that all management
operations data be submitted
electronically to HUD, in a HUD
prescribed format. HUD uses the
management data it collects from
program participants to evaluate all
major areas of a participant’s
management operations. The
management data are evaluated using
predetermined weights and factors to
compute an indicator score for the
management operations of each
reporting entity. HUD uses this score
with three other PHAS indicator scores
(i.e., physical condition, financial
condition and resident services) to
produce an overall PHAS score for each
PHA. The overall PHAS score
determines if a PHA’s performance is
high, standard, or troubled.
Agency form number, if applicable:
Form HUD–50072.
Members of affected public: PHAs,
State or local government.
Estimation of the total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents: The estimated number of
respondents is an annual average of
3,174 PHAs that submit management
operations certification. The average
number for each PHA response varies by
size of the PHA, with a total reporting
burden of 3,644 hours, or an average of
1.15 hours per respondent.
Status of the proposed information
collection: Extension of a currently
approved collection.
Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35,
as amended.
Dated: April 7, 2010.
