the basic range of 90 to 110 percent of
the fair market rent (FMR) for the unit
size.
Granted by: Sandra B. Henriquez,
Assistant Secretary for Public and
Indian Housing.
Date Granted: February 23, 2010.
Reason Waived: The applicant, who is
disabled, needs to remain in her current
two-bedroom unit where she has a
rotating caregiver as well as other
support staff. To provide a reasonable
accommodation so that this client could
be assisted in her current unit and pay
no more than 40 percent of her adjusted
income toward the family share, the
HATC was allowed to approve an
exception payment standard that
exceeded the basic range of 90 to 110
percent of the FMR.

• Regulation: 24 CFR 983.51,
983.204(b) and 983.206(b).
Project/Activity: New York City
Housing (NYCHA), New York, NY.
Nature of Requirement: HUD’s
regulation at 24 CFR 983.51 requires
competitive selection of owner
proposals for project-based vouchers
unless the units were competitively
selected under a similar competitive
process as described in the regulation.
HUD’s regulation at 24 CFR 983.204(b)
states that in the case of existing
housing, the housing assistance
payments (HAP) contract must be
executed promptly after PHA selection
of the owner proposal and PHA
inspection of the housing. HUD’s
regulation at 24 CFR 983.206(b) allows
the PHA to add units to an existing PBV
HAP contract only during the three-year
period immediately following the
execution date of that contract.
Granted by: Sandra B. Henriquez,
Assistant Secretary for Public and
Indian Housing
Date Granted: February 25, 2010.
Reason Waived: These waivers were
granted to ensure the preservation of
affordable housing by allowing the
mixed-finance modernization of up to
18,000 units, and by providing a
guarantee that 2,236 units currently
occupied by families with tenant
protection tenant-based vouchers would
remain available for very low income
families upon turnover through the
project-based voucher program.

• Regulation: 24 CFR 984.303(d).
Project/Activity: Cumberland Housing
Authority (CHA), Cumberland, Rhode
Island.
Nature of Requirement: HUD’s
regulation at 24 CFR 984.303(d) limits
the extensions of FSS contracts by a
public housing agency to 2 years beyond
the initial 5-year term of the FSS
contract.
Granted by: Sandra B. Henriquez,
Assistant Secretary for Public and
Indian Housing.
Date Granted: March 30, 2010.
Reason Waived: CHA requested the
waiver extend the FSS contract of an
FSS participant for 1 month beyond the
maximum term to permit him to
complete his final goal of being welfare
free for 12 months. The waiver was
granted because the participant was
impeded by illness, involuntary job loss,
and complications of gaining full
custody of his daughter. Good cause was
found to waive the maximum 2-year
contract extension for this participant.

• Regulation: 24 CFR 984.303(d).
Project/Activity: Sonoma County
Housing Authority (SCHA), Santa Rosa,
CA.
Nature of Requirement: HUD’s
regulation at 24 CFR 984.303(d) limits
the extensions of FSS contracts by a
public housing agency to 2 years beyond
the initial 5-year term of the FSS
contract.
Granted by: Sandra B. Henriquez,
Assistant Secretary for Public and
Indian Housing
Date Granted: February 03, 2010.
Reason Waived: SCHA provided
evidence that the participant worked
diligently against substantial odds to
meet goals of FSS contract. Failure to
complete within contract term was due
to serious illness as well as job market
conditions during severe economic
downturn in California.

Proposed Collection, Comment

ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed revision to the
‘‘American Time Use Survey (ATUS).’’ A
copy of the proposed information
collection request (ICR) can be obtained
by contacting the individual listed
below in the Addresses section of this
notice.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
Addresses section of this notice on or
before August 30, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The ATUS is the Nation’s first
federally administered, continuous
survey on time use in the United States.
It measures, for example, time spent
with children, working, sleeping, or
doing leisure activities. In the United
States, several existing Federal surveys
collect income and wage data for
individuals and families, and analysts
often use such measures of material
prosperity as proxies for quality of life.
Time-use data substantially augment
these quality-of-life measures. The data
also can be used in conjunction with
wage data to evaluate the contribution
of non-market work to national
economies. This enables comparisons of
production between nations that have
different mixes of market and nonmarket activities.
The ATUS develops nationally
representative estimates of how people
spend their time. Respondents also
report who was with them during
activities, where they were, how long
each activity lasted, and if they were
paid. All of this information has
numerous practical applications for
sociologists, economists, educators,
government policymakers,
businesspersons, health researchers, and
others, potentially answering the
following questions:
• Do the ways people use their time
vary across demographic and labor force
characteristics, such as age, sex, race,
ethnicity, employment status, earnings,
and education?
• How much time do parents spend
in the company of their children, either
actively providing care or being with
them while socializing, relaxing, or
doing other things?
• How are earnings related to leisure
time—do those with higher earnings
spend more or less time relaxing and
socializing?
• Where do people work—at a
workplace, in their homes, or someplace
else?
The ATUS data are collected on an
ongoing, monthly basis, so time series
data will eventually become available,
allowing analysts to identify changes in
how people spend their time.
