This Notice also lists the following information: Title of Proposal: Emergency Homeowners’ Loan Program Data Elements. OMB Control Number, if applicable: 2502–0597. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: This information collection is necessary to determine applicant eligibility to receive mortgage relief assistance under the Emergency Homeowners’ Loan Program. This Notice informs the public that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has submitted to OMB, an information collection package with respect to implementing the Emergency Homeowners’ Loan Program targeted to borrowers facing foreclosure. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111–203, approved July 21, 2010, Sec 1496) appropriated $1billion to HUD to establish an Emergency Homeowner’s Relief Fund, pursuant to section 107 of the Emergency Housing Act of 1975, that will provide emergency mortgage assistance to homeowners that are at risk of foreclosure due to involuntary unemployment or underemployment due to an adverse economic or medical condition. Accordingly, HUD is implementing the Emergency Homeowners Loan Program (EHLP) that is designed to offer a declining balance, deferred payment ‘‘bridge loan’’ (nonrecourse, subordinate loan with zero interest) for up to $50,000 to assist eligible homeowners with payments of arrearages, including delinquent taxes and insurance. Additionally, EHLP maybe used to assist eligible homeowners with up to 24 months of monthly payments on their mortgage principal, interest, mortgage insurance premiums, taxes, and hazard insurance. Assistance will not exceed $50,000 per eligible homeowner. PO 00000 Frm 00052 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 22913 HUD will use two approaches to implement EHLP: (1) Provide allocations to States that currently have substantially similar programs to administer their mortgage relief funds directly; and (2) delegate key administrative functions to third party entities that will assist HUD with program implementation. The third party entities will be primarily responsible for application intake, eligibility screening, funds control, payment distribution, and note processing. Homeowners’(borrowers’) participation in the program is voluntary. However, to help determine eligibility for assistance borrowers must submit the required application information and loan documentation to demonstrate that they meet program eligibility guidelines to receive mortgage relief assistance through EHLP. Agency form numbers, if applicable: None. Estimation of the total numbers of hours needed to prepare the information collection including number of respondents, frequency of response, and hours of response: The total number of respondents are estimated to be 36,264; the frequency of response (one time) for initial intake and an on-occasion response to re-certify changes in required eligibility data, the estimated time needed to prepare the response averages 3 hours ; and the total estimated annual burden hours are 108,792. Status of the proposed information collection: This is an extension of a currently approved collection. Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C., Chapter 35, as amended.

and this Ordinance, the Tribal Council shall have the authority to 
issue, suspend and revoke Off-Premise Beer Retail Licenses. All other 
licenses for the sale and/or service of Alcoholic Beverages on Tribal 
Lands must be issued by the State of Utah, with approval by the Tribe

Tribal Law, including this Ordinance.

for consumption off the premises.

eligible to receive an Off-Premise Beer Retail License issued by the 
Tribe.
    B. Application for an Off-Premise Beer Retail License.
    1. Application Process. Applicants meeting the eligibility 
requirements of this Ordinance, as well as applicable federal, state 
and/or Tribal Law, must apply to the Tribal Council for an Off-Premise 
Beer Retail License. The applicant shall file a written application 
with the Tribal Council, in a form prescribed and approved by the 
Tribal Council. The application shall be accompanied by a nonrefundable 
application fee, as set by the Tribal Council, and such other 
information and/or documentation as the Tribal Council may require.
    2. Action on the Application. The Tribal Council shall have the 
authority to deny, approve, or approve with conditions, an application

one or more of the following reasons.

or other tribal or federal law, or with the applicable laws of the 
State of Utah;
    c. The applicant has failed to complete the application properly, 
has failed to provide required information and/or documentation, and/or 
has failed to tender the appropriate fee;
    d. The Tribal Council finds that granting the license (or renewal 
thereof) would create a threat to the peace, safety, morals, health or 
welfare of the Tribe, and/or is otherwise not in the best interest of 
the Tribe or tribal members.
    4. Temporary Denial. If the application is denied solely on the 
basis of Section 10-B-3(c), the Tribal Council shall, within fifteen 
(15) days of receipt of the application, issue a written notice of 
temporary denial to the applicant. Such notice shall set forth the

fifteen (15) days following receipt of the notice.
    5. Cure. If an applicant is denied a license, the applicant may 
cure the deficiency and resubmit the application for consideration. 
Each re-submission will be treated as a new application for license or 
renewal of a license.
    6. Investigation. Upon receipt of an application for the issuance 
or renewal of a license, the Tribal Council shall make a thorough 
investigation to determine whether the applicant and the premises for 
which a license is applied qualify for a license and whether the 
provisions of this Ordinance have been complied with.
    7. Term and Renewal of License. Each license shall be issued for a 
period not to exceed one (1) year from the original date of issuance 
and may be renewed thereafter on a year-to-year basis, in compliance

visibly separate and distinct from the area where non-alcoholic 
beverages are displayed.
    G. Required Signage. A Licensee holding a Off-Premise Beer Retail 
License shall conform with the sign requirements of applicable Utah 
state law, including Utah Code Ann. Sec.  32A10-102(5) and R81-10-1.
    H. Tribe's Right to Inspect. The Tribe shall have the right to
