Title of Proposal(s): Closeout Notice

HUD 7082–Funding Approval Form.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use:
Closeout Notice for CDBG Programs
The closeout instructions apply to
Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) programs (State CDBG Program,
CDBG Disaster Recovery Supplemental
Funding, CDBG–Recovery Act (CDBG–
R)) and Neighborhood Stabilization
Programs (NSP) 1, 2, & 3. Section
570.509 of the CDBG regulations
contains the grant closeout criteria for
Entitlement jurisdictions when HUD
determines, in consultation with the
recipients that a grant can be closed.
The State CDBG program does not have
a regulatory requirement for closeouts
but has relied on administrative
guidance. This is also true for the NSP,
CDBG Disaster Recovery and CDBG–R

34742
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2011 / Notices
programs administrated by the state.
States will use the Notice as a vehicle
to verify that State CDBG funds have
been properly spent before a grant may
be officially closed. The HUD field
office will prepare and send a closeout
package that includes a transmittal
letter, grant closeout agreement, grantee
closeout certification and a closeout
checklist to the grantee via email or
standard mail. The information in the
closeout package will assist the
Department in determining whether all
requirements of the contract between
the Department and the Grantee have
been completed.
The HUD 7082 Funding Approval Form
The Grant Agreement between the
Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) and the Grantee is
made pursuant to the authority of Title
I of the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974, as amended,
(42 USC 5301 et seq.). HUD will make
the funding assistance as specified to
the grantee upon execution of the
Agreement.
Agency for numbers, if applicable:
Not applicable
Members of affected public: This
information collection applies to all
States, Entitlement jurisdictions, Insular
Areas, non-entitlement counties in
Hawaii and those non-entitlement
counties directly funded by NSP 3.
Estimation of the Total Numbers of
Hours Needed To Prepare the
Information Collection Including
Number of Respondent, Frequency of
Response, and Hours of Response: The
estimated combined number of
respondents is 3,077 for the grant
closeout task and for the HUD 7082
funding approval form. The proposed
frequency of the response to the
collection of information is annual to
initiate the grant closeout reporting and
submission of the funding approval
agreement. The total annual reporting
for grant closeout is estimated at
2399.34 hours for 1,621 grant recipients.
The annual submission of the HUD 7082
funding approval form is estimated at
364 hours for 1,456 grant recipients.
