measure the impact of the policy
changes identified; policy changes
adopted by MTW PHAs that have
proven successful and can be applied
more broadly to all PHAs; and statutory
and/or regulatory changes necessary to
implement policy changes for all PHAs.
The Committee shall have no role in
reviewing or selecting the MTW PHAs.
Each year, the Committee shall provide
a report to the HUD Secretary that
describes the activities, status, and
changes in composition of the
Committee since the previous year. A
draft of the Committee’s Charter and
Membership Balance Plan can be found
on HUD’s Web site at www.hud.gov/
mtw.
Structure: The Committee shall
consist of up to fourteen (14) members,
as the Secretary will appoint. Members
will be reappointed at the discretion of
the Secretary. When appropriate, HUD
will provide stipends to members
selected as former or current residents
of MTW PHAs as compensation for their
time. All other members shall serve
without compensation.
Membership of the Committee shall
include program and research experts
from HUD; a fair representation of PHAs
with an MTW designation, including
current and/or former residents; and
independent subject matter experts in
housing policy research. No person who
is a federally-registered lobbyist may
serve on the Committee. Members of the
Committee shall be chosen to ensure
balance, diversity, and a broad
representation of ideas, in accordance
with HUD’s Membership Balance Plan
for the Committee. In general, subject
matter expertise in the programs
operated by HUD’s Office of Public and
Indian Housing, and specifically the
MTW Demonstration Program, is
beneficial in helping the Committee
accomplish its mission. Membership on
the Committee is personal to the
appointee. Committee members
representing MTW agency Executive
Directors may designate an alternate
member of their MTW agency to attend
in their place, should they be unable to
participate in a Committee meeting.
The Committee will meet in person at
least one (1) time per fiscal year and by
conference call up to six (6) times as
needed to render advice to HUD.
Meetings shall be coordinated by a
Designated Federal Officer who shall
approve the agenda and chair
Committee meetings.
Committee members will be required,
as applicable, to provide disclosures
and certifications regarding conflicts of
interest and eligibility for membership
prior to final appointment.

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Core
Performance Reporting for
Competitively-Funded Grants.
OMB Control Number: 2501-New.
Type of Request: New collection.
Form Number: HUD–PRL, HUD–CIRL,
and HUD–GF.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: This
request is for the clearance of data
collection and reporting requirements to
enable the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD) Office of
Strategic Planning and Management
(OSPM) to better assess the effectiveness
of competitively-funded grants included
in this information collection request
(ICR). The competitively–funded grant
programs included in this ICR are:
Community Development Block Grant
Program for Indian Tribes and Alaska
Native Villages (ICDBG), Family SelfSufficiency Program (FSS), Housing
Counseling (HC), Housing Opportunities
for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA),
JobsPlus Program (Jobs+), Juvenile
Reentry Assistance Program (JRAP),
Lead-Based Paint Hazard Control
(LBPHC), Lead Hazard Reduction
Demonstration (LHRD), Multifamily
Housing Service Coordinator Program
(MFSC), Self-Help Homeownership
Opportunity Program (SHOP),
Supportive Services Demonstration
Program (202), and Resident
Opportunity and Self-Sufficiency
Service Coordinators Program (ROSS).
A key component of this proposed
collection is the reporting of
measureable outcomes. Additionally,
the standardization of data collection
and reporting requirements across the
Department will increase data
comparability and utilization.
Consolidation of de-identified data
drawn from pre-existing HUD’s systems
and databases, as applicable, into a
single repository will enhance the
Department’s comprehensive and
comparative analysis of competitivelyfunded HUD programs. Data submission
will be acceptable via Comma Separated
Values (CSV), Extensible Markup
Language (XML), and other file formats
in addition to direct data entry into an
online web form.
The Department has several reporting
models in place for competitive grant
programs, including the eLogic Model.
The reporting models provide
information on a wide variety of outputs
and outcomes and are based on unique
data definitions and outcome measures
in program-specific performance and
progress reports. In Federal Fiscal Year
(FY) 2013, nine program offices at HUD
used six systems and 15 reporting tools
E:\FR\FM\26APN1.SGM
26APN1
24632
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 80 / Tuesday, April 26, 2016 / Notices
to collect over 700 data elements in
support of varied metrics to assess the
performance of competitively-funded
grants. The proposed data collection
and reporting requirements described in
this notice are designed to replace the
use of the eLogic Model and other report
forms and requirements. The lack of
standardized data collection and
reporting requirements imposes an
increased burden on grantees with
multiple grant awards from HUD. The
need for a comprehensive and
standardized reporting approach is
underscored by reviews conducted by
external oversight agencies, including
the Department’s Office of Inspector
General (OIG) and the Government
Accountability Office (GAO). These
oversight agencies have questioned the
validity and comparability of data
reported by the Department. To address
these issues, the Department is using its
statutory and regulatory authority to
redesign and strengthen performance
reporting for many of its competitive
grant programs into a single
comprehensive approach.
The Secretary’s statutory and
regulatory authority to administer HUD
programs include provisions allowing
for the requirement of performance
reporting from grantees. This legal
authority is codified at 42 U.S.C.
3535(r). The individual privacy of
service recipients is of the highest
priority. The reporting repository
established at HUD to receive data
submission from grantees will not
include any personally identifying
information (PII). Additionally, if the
data for a grant has 25 or fewer
individuals served during a FY as
reported in the record-level reports,
then the results for the demographic
data elements for the 25 or fewer
individuals will also be redacted or
removed from the public-use data file
and any publicly available analytical
products in order to ensure the inability
to identify any individual.
Eligible entities awarded grants by the
Department are expected to implement
the proposed recordkeeping and
reporting requirements with available
grant funds. It is important to note that
much of the data to be reported by
grantees under this ICR is already
required and reported to one or more
program offices at HUD. Furthermore,
generally only a subset of the universe
of data elements presented will be
submitted as data collection and
reporting requirements which are
determined by the program office and
include consideration of the type and
level of service provided by the
respective grant programs.
The reporting requirements in this
proposal better organize the data already
being collected, standardize outcomes
and performance measures, and allow
program offices at HUD to select which
data elements and performance
indicators are relevant for their
respective programs. Documents
detailing the data elements,
performance indicators, and draft online
data entry forms are available for review
by request from Thaddeus Wincek
(thaddeus.d.wincek@hud.gov). All
information reported to HUD will be
submitted electronically. Recipients or
grantees may use existing management
information systems provided those
systems collect all of the required data
elements and can be exported for
submission to HUD. Recipients or
grantees that sub-grant funds to other
organizations will need to collect the
required information from their subrecipients or sub-grantees. Information
collected and reported will be used by
recipients or grantees and the
Department for the following purposes:
• To provide program and
performance information to recipients,
general public, Congress, and other
stakeholders;
• To continuously improve the
quality, effectiveness, and efficiency of
grant-funded programs;
• To provide management
information for use by the Department
in program administration and
oversight, including the monitoring of
grant-specific participation, services,
capital investments, and outcomes; and
• To better measure and analyze
performance information to identify
successful practices to be replicated and
prevent or correct problematic practices
and improve outcomes in compliance
with the Government Performance and
Results Act (GPRA) and the GPRA
Modernization Act of 2010.
The data collection and reporting
requirements will be phased in over a
three-year period which includes a
proof of concept pilot in FY16. The
Department will provide technical
assistance to recipients or grantees
throughout the implementation.
Respondents (i.e. affected public):
Organizations awarded competitivelyfunded grants from the following HUD
programs: Community Development
Block Grant Program for Indian Tribes
and Alaska Native Villages (ICDBG),
Family Self-Sufficiency Program (FSS),

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Core Performance Reporting for
Competitively-Funded Grants.
OMB Control Number: 2501-New.
Type of Request: New collection.
Form Number: HUD-PRL, HUD-CIRL, and HUD-GF.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: This
request is for the clearance of data collection and reporting
requirements to enable the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) Office of Strategic Planning and Management (OSPM) to
better assess the effectiveness of competitively-funded grants included
in this information collection request (ICR). The competitively-funded
grant programs included in this ICR are: Community Development Block
Grant Program for Indian Tribes and Alaska Native Villages (ICDBG),
Family Self-Sufficiency Program (FSS), Housing Counseling (HC), Housing
Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA), JobsPlus Program (Jobs+),
Juvenile Reentry Assistance Program (JRAP), Lead-Based Paint Hazard
Control (LBPHC), Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration (LHRD),
Multifamily Housing Service Coordinator Program (MFSC), Self-Help
Homeownership Opportunity Program (SHOP), Supportive Services
Demonstration Program (202), and Resident Opportunity and Self-
Sufficiency Service Coordinators Program (ROSS).
A key component of this proposed collection is the reporting of
measureable outcomes. Additionally, the standardization of data
collection and reporting requirements across the Department will
increase data comparability and utilization. Consolidation of de-
identified data drawn from pre-existing HUD's systems and databases, as
applicable, into a single repository will enhance the Department's
comprehensive and comparative analysis of competitively-funded HUD
programs. Data submission will be acceptable via Comma Separated Values
(CSV), Extensible Markup Language (XML), and other file formats in
addition to direct data entry into an online web form.
The Department has several reporting models in place for
competitive grant programs, including the eLogic Model. The reporting
models provide information on a wide variety of outputs and outcomes
and are based on unique data definitions and outcome measures in
program-specific performance and progress reports. In Federal Fiscal
Year (FY) 2013, nine program offices at HUD used six systems and 15
reporting tools
[[Page 24632]]
to collect over 700 data elements in support of varied metrics to
assess the performance of competitively-funded grants. The proposed
data collection and reporting requirements described in this notice are
designed to replace the use of the eLogic Model and other report forms
and requirements. The lack of standardized data collection and
reporting requirements imposes an increased burden on grantees with
multiple grant awards from HUD. The need for a comprehensive and
standardized reporting approach is underscored by reviews conducted by
external oversight agencies, including the Department's Office of
Inspector General (OIG) and the Government Accountability Office (GAO).
These oversight agencies have questioned the validity and comparability
of data reported by the Department. To address these issues, the
Department is using its statutory and regulatory authority to redesign
and strengthen performance reporting for many of its competitive grant
programs into a single comprehensive approach.
The Secretary's statutory and regulatory authority to administer
HUD programs include provisions allowing for the requirement of
performance reporting from grantees. This legal authority is codified
at 42 U.S.C. 3535(r). The individual privacy of service recipients is
of the highest priority. The reporting repository established at HUD to
receive data submission from grantees will not include any personally
identifying information (PII). Additionally, if the data for a grant
has 25 or fewer individuals served during a FY as reported in the
record-level reports, then the results for the demographic data
elements for the 25 or fewer individuals will also be redacted or
removed from the public-use data file and any publicly available
analytical products in order to ensure the inability to identify any
individual.
Eligible entities awarded grants by the Department are expected to
implement the proposed recordkeeping and reporting requirements with
available grant funds. It is important to note that much of the data to
be reported by grantees under this ICR is already required and reported
to one or more program offices at HUD. Furthermore, generally only a
subset of the universe of data elements presented will be submitted as
data collection and reporting requirements which are determined by the
program office and include consideration of the type and level of
service provided by the respective grant programs.
The reporting requirements in this proposal better organize the
data already being collected, standardize outcomes and performance
measures, and allow program offices at HUD to select which data
elements and performance indicators are relevant for their respective
programs. Documents detailing the data elements, performance
indicators, and draft online data entry forms are available for review
by request from Thaddeus Wincek (thaddeus.d.wincek@hud.gov). All
information reported to HUD will be submitted electronically.
Recipients or grantees may use existing management information systems
provided those systems collect all of the required data elements and
can be exported for submission to HUD. Recipients or grantees that sub-
grant funds to other organizations will need to collect the required
information from their sub-recipients or sub-grantees. Information
collected and reported will be used by recipients or grantees and the
Department for the following purposes:
To provide program and performance information to
recipients, general public, Congress, and other stakeholders;
To continuously improve the quality, effectiveness, and
efficiency of grant-funded programs;
To provide management information for use by the
Department in program administration and oversight, including the
monitoring of grant-specific participation, services, capital
investments, and outcomes; and
To better measure and analyze performance information to
identify successful practices to be replicated and prevent or correct
problematic practices and improve outcomes in compliance with the
Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) and the GPRA
Modernization Act of 2010.
The data collection and reporting requirements will be phased in
over a three-year period which includes a proof of concept pilot in
FY16. The Department will provide technical assistance to recipients or
grantees throughout the implementation. Respondents (i.e. affected
public):
Organizations awarded competitively-funded grants from the
following HUD programs: Community Development Block Grant Program for
Indian Tribes and Alaska Native Villages (ICDBG), Family Self-
Sufficiency Program (FSS), Housing Counseling (HC), Housing

Juvenile Reentry Assistance Program (JRAP), Lead-Based Paint Hazard

Multifamily Housing Service Coordinator Program (MFSC), Self-Help
Homeownership Opportunity Program (SHOP), Supportive Services
Demonstration Program (202), and Resident Opportunity and Self-
