Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) is conducting an
important national study of the
Neighborhood Stabilization Program
(NSP), with a particular focus on the
round of funding from the American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act
(ARRA), known as ‘‘NSP2.’’ This
information collection will involve site
visits and interviews of NSP2 grantees,
in order to describe the process of
implementing the NSP2 program and to
identify the neighborhoods where NSP2
funding was spent, in order to evaluate
its impact.
Agency Form Numbers: N/A.
Members of the Affected Public:
Approximately 25 NSP2 grantees and 50
partner agencies will be part of the
study. To select the grantees HUD will
conduct brief reconnaissance telephone
calls with up to 40 grantees to ensure
that they have adequate data for
evaluation. Staff of selected grantees
will be asked to participate in more indepth on-site interviews with HUD’s
contractor and to provide HUD’s
contractor with access to their records
for tracking program activity.
Reconnaissance phone calls will take up
to an hour per grantee. On-site
interviews will take approximately 2
hours per person and will be
administered to approximately 4 staff
per NSP2 grantee and 4 additional staff
among partner agencies. Providing
HUD’s contractor with access to records
will require approximately 2 hours from
one person per grantee. Estimation of
the total number of hours needed to
prepare the information collection
