Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 178 / Wednesday, September 15, 2010 / Notices
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: HUD
uses the Housing Discrimination
Information Form HUD–903.1 (Form) to
collect pertinent information from
persons wishing to file housing
discrimination complaints with HUD
under the Fair Housing Act (Act). The
Act makes it unlawful to discriminate in
the sale, rental, occupancy, advertising,
or insuring of residential dwellings; or
to discriminate in residential real estaterelated transactions; or in the provision
of brokerage services, based on race,
color, religion, sex, handicap
[disability], familial status, or national
origin.
Any person who claims to have been
injured by a discriminatory housing
practice, or any person who believes
that he or she will be injured by a
discriminatory housing practice that is
about to occur, may file a complaint
with HUD not later than one year after
the alleged discriminatory housing
practice occurs or terminates. The Form
promotes consistency in the collection
of information necessary to contact
persons who file housing discrimination
complaints with HUD. It also aids in the
collection of information necessary for
initial assessments of HUD’s authority
to investigate alleged discriminatory
housing practices under the Act.
This information may subsequently be
provided to persons against whom
complaints are filed [‘‘respondents’’], as
required under section 810(a)(1)(B)(ii) of
the Act.
Agency form numbers, if applicable:
Form HUD–903.1 (English), Form HUD–
903.1A (Spanish), Form HUD–903–1B
(Chinese), Form HUD–903.1F
(Vietnamese), Form HUD–903.1K
(Korean), Form HUD–903.1AR (Arabic),
Form HUD–903.1CAM (Cambodian),
Form HUD–903.1R (Russian), and Form
HUD–903–1 (Somali).
Members of affected public:
Individuals or households; businesses
or other for-profit, not-for-profit
institutions; State, Local, or Tribal
Governments.
Estimation of the total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection, including the number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of responses: During FY 2009,
HUD staff received approximately
16,740 information submissions from
persons wishing to file housing
discrimination complaints with HUD.
Telephone contacts accounted for 4,200
of this total. The remaining 12,540
complaint submissions were transmitted
to HUD by mail, in-person, and via the
Internet. HUD estimates that an
aggrieved person requires
approximately 45 minutes in which to
VerDate Mar<15>2010
18:57 Sep 14, 2010
Jkt 220001
complete this Form. The Form is
completed once by each aggrieved
person. Therefore, the total number of
annual burden hours for this Form is
9,405 hours.
12,540 × 1 (frequency) × .45 minutes
(.75 hours) = 9,405 hours.
Annualized cost burden to
complainants: HUD does not provide
postage-paid mailers for this
information collection. Accordingly,
persons who choose to submit this Form
to HUD by mail must pay the prevailing
cost of First Class Postage. As of the date
of this Notice, the annualized cost
burden per person, based on a one-time
submission of this Form to HUD via
First Class Postage, is Forty-Four Cents
($0.44) per person. During FY 2009,
FHEO staff received approximately
6,225 submissions of potential
complaint information by mail. Based
on this number, HUD estimates that the
total annualized cost burden for
aggrieved persons who submit this Form
to HUD by mail is $2,739.00. Aggrieved
persons also may submit this Form to
HUD in person, by facsimile, or
electronically via the Internet.
Status of the proposed information
collection: Renewal of a currently
approved collection of pertinent
information from persons wishing to file
Fair Housing Act complaints with HUD.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 [44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended].

individual’s participation in the Section
8 or public housing programs. When an
individual presents a PHA, owner, or
management agency with a claim for
protections under the Violence Against
Women Act (VAWA), the PHA, owner,
or management agency may (but is not
required to) to request that the
individual complete, sign and submit
within 14 business days of the request,
a HUD approved certification form, or
alternate documentation as described on
the certification form, to document the
domestic violence, dating violence, or
stalking. The PHA’s, owner’s, or
management agency’s request for
documentation must be made in
writing. On the certification form, the
individual certifies that he/she is a
victim of domestic violence, dating
violence, or stalking, and that the
incident or incidences in question are
bona fide incidences of such actual or
threatened abuse. On the certification
form, the individual must provide the
name of the perpetrator.
PHAs are instructed that the delivery
of the certification form to the tenant in
response to incident via mail may place
the victim at risk, e.g., the abuser may
monitor the mail; consequently, PHAs,
owners and managers may require that
the tenant come into the office to pick
up the certification form. PHAs and
owners are also encouraged to work
with tenants to make delivery
arrangements that do not place the
tenant at risk.
If the PHA, owner, or management
agent provides the individual with a
written request for documentation of the
abuse, and the individual does not
provide the certification form, or
alternate documentation as described on
the certification form, within 14
business days from the date of receipt of
the PHA’s, owner’s, or management
agent’s written request (or after any
extension of that date provided by the
PHA, owner or management agent),
none of the protections afforded to the
victim of domestic violence, dating
violence or stalking by sections 606 or
607 will apply. The PHA, owner, or
management agent would therefore be
free to evict, or terminate assistance, in
the circumstances authorized by
otherwise applicable law and lease
provisions, without regard to the
amendments made by section 606 and
607.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Introduction
With this notice, we continue the CCP
process for the Pearl Harbor National
Wildlife Refuge. We started this process
by publishing a notice of intent in the
Federal Register on December 1, 2008
(73 FR 72826).
Pearl Harbor Refuge is located on the
southern coast of the island of O‘ahu
and is comprised of three units:
Honouliuli, Waiawa, and Kalaeloa. The
Honouliuli Unit and Waiawa Unit are
wetland units located on the shores of
Pearl Harbor. The 37-acre Honouliuli
Unit and the 25-acre Waiawa Unit were
established in 1972 to protect and
enhance habitat for endangered
Hawaiian waterbirds. Habitats found on
these units include open water,
freshwater marsh, mudflat, grassland,
and shrubland. The units provide
important breeding, feeding, and resting
areas for endangered waterbirds, a
variety of migratory waterfowl,
shorebirds, and other wetland birds.
Common migrants include Northern
pintail and Pacific golden plover.
Neither unit is open to the general
public; however, a grade school wetland
education program is administered
under a special use permit at the
Honouliuli Unit.
The 38-acre Kalaeloa Unit is a coastal
upland unit on O‘ahu’s southwestern
point, and was once part of the Naval
Air Station Barbers Point (NAS). When
the NAS closed in 2001, the unit was
established to protect and enhance
habitat for the endangered ‘Ewa
hinahina plant. The unit contains the
largest remnant stand of ‘Ewa hinahina
and a reintroduced population of
‘akoko, another endangered plant. We
supplement these plant populations
with nursery plantings and exotic plant
control. The unit is located within the
arid ‘Ewa Plains, and encompasses
exposed coral shelf, rocky shoreline,
and sparse vegetation. The unit includes
a unique microhabitat called anchialine
pools. These salt water pools are in the
raised limestone coral reef, and are
connected to the ocean via tiny
subterranean cracks and crevices within
the coralline substrate. The anchialine
pools support unique insects, plants,
and animals, including two imperiled
