Abstract This notice is for renewal of information collection. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, which implement the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., require that interested members of the public and affected agencies have an opportunity to comment on information collection and recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR 1320.8 (d)). 5 U.S.C. 5911 authorizes Federal agencies to provide housing for Government employees under specified circumstances. In compliance with OMB Circular A–45 (Revised), Rental and Construction of Government Quarters, a review of private rental market housing rates is required at least once every 5 years to ensure that the rental, utility charges, and charges for related services to occupants of Government Furnished Housing (GFH) are comparable to corresponding charges in the private sector. To avoid unnecessary duplication and inconsistent rental rates, the Department of the Interior, Office of the Secretary, Interior Business Center, conducts rental market surveys as a shared federal service for the Departments of the Interior (DOI), Agriculture, Commerce, Homeland Security, Justice, Transportation, Health and Human Services, and Veterans Affairs. In this survey, two collection forms are used: OS–2000, covering ‘‘Houses— Apartments—Mobile Homes’’ and OS– 2001, covering ‘‘Trailer Spaces.’’ This collection of information provides data that helps DOI and the other Federal agencies to meet the rentsetting requirements of OMB Circular A–45 (Revised). If this information were not collected from the public, DOI and the other Federal agencies with GFH would be required to use professional appraisals of open market rental costs for GFH, again, in accordance with OMB Circular A–45, but at an increased cost to the taxpayer. II. Data (1) Title: Private Rental Survey. OMB Control Number: 1084–0033. PO 00000 Frm 00089 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 27171 Current Expiration Date: September 30, 2016. Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved collection. Affected Entities: Individuals or households, businesses and other for profit institutions. Estimated annual number of respondents: OS–2000: 3,841; OS–2001: 200; Total: 4,041. Frequency of responses: Once per respondent every fourth year. Three or four of 15 total survey regions are surveyed every year. Therefore a respondent may be potentially be surveyed every fourth year, if an individual respondent lives in the same unit and the exact same unit happens to be surveyed again four years later. In addition, if an individual business is a significant rental property owner or rental property manager in the community, they may provide multiple responses in the same survey. Participation is optional. (2) Annual reporting and recordkeeping burden: Estimated burden per response: OS– 2000: 6 minutes; OS–2001: 4 minutes. Estimated average number of annual responses: OS–2000: 3,383; OS–2001: 220 Total estimated average annual reporting: OS–2000: 338 hours; OS– 2001: 15 hours, Total: 353 hours. (3) Description of the need and use of the information. This information collection provides the data for DOI to determine open market rental costs for GFH. These rates, in turn, enable DOI to set GFH rental rates for several agencies, as a shared federal service, in accordance with the requirements of OMB Circular A–45 (Revised). III. Request for Comments The Department invites comments on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agencies, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the agencies’ estimate of the burden of the collection of information and the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other collection techniques or other forms of information technology. ‘‘Burden’’ means the total time, effort, and financial resources expended by E:\FR\FM\05MYN1.SGM 05MYN1 27172 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 87 / Thursday, May 5, 2016 / Notices persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide information to or for a Federal agency.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    This notice is for renewal of information collection.
    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations at 5 CFR part 
1320, which implement the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 
3501 et seq., require that interested members of the public and 
affected agencies have an opportunity to comment on information 
collection and recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR 1320.8 (d)).
    5 U.S.C. 5911 authorizes Federal agencies to provide housing for 
Government employees under specified circumstances. In compliance with 
OMB Circular A-45 (Revised), Rental and Construction of Government 
Quarters, a review of private rental market housing rates is required 
at least once every 5 years to ensure that the rental, utility charges, 
and charges for related services to occupants of Government Furnished 
Housing (GFH) are comparable to corresponding charges in the private 
sector. To avoid unnecessary duplication and inconsistent rental rates, 
the Department of the Interior, Office of the Secretary, Interior 
Business Center, conducts rental market surveys as a shared federal 
service for the Departments of the Interior (DOI), Agriculture, 
Commerce, Homeland Security, Justice, Transportation, Health and Human 
Services, and Veterans Affairs. In this survey, two collection forms 
are used: OS-2000, covering ``Houses--Apartments--Mobile Homes'' and 
OS-2001, covering ``Trailer Spaces.''
    This collection of information provides data that helps DOI and the 
other Federal agencies to meet the rent-setting requirements of OMB 
Circular A-45 (Revised). If this information were not collected from 
the public, DOI and the other Federal agencies with GFH would be 
required to use professional appraisals of open market rental costs for 
GFH, again, in accordance with OMB Circular A-45, but at an increased 
cost to the taxpayer.

II. Data

    OMB Control Number: 1084-0033.

200; Total: 4,041.
    Frequency of responses: Once per respondent every fourth year. 
Three or four of 15 total survey regions are surveyed every year. 
Therefore a respondent may be potentially be surveyed every fourth 
year, if an individual respondent lives in the same unit and the exact 
same unit happens to be surveyed again four years later. In addition, 
if an individual business is a significant rental property owner or 
rental property manager in the community, they may provide multiple 
responses in the same survey. Participation is optional.

    Estimated burden per response: OS-2000: 6 minutes; OS-2001: 4

2001: 15 hours, Total: 353 hours.
    (3) Description of the need and use of the information.
    This information collection provides the data for DOI to determine 
open market rental costs for GFH. These rates, in turn, enable DOI to 
set GFH rental rates for several agencies, as a shared federal service, 
in accordance with the requirements of OMB Circular A-45 (Revised).
