SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A. The Federal Register notice
that solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on June 27, 2017 at

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Transfer and Consolidation of Public
Housing Programs and Public Housing
Agencies.
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0280.
Type of Request: Reinstatement,
without change, of a previously
approved collection for which approval
has expired.
Form Number: No form is used to
collect this information. Forms collected
with information incidental to this
collection are: HUD–52190–A, HUD–
53012–A, HUD 53012–B, HUD–52722,
HUD–52723, HUD–51999, SF–1199A,
HUD–27056, HUD–27054A, HUD–
52540.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use: State
legislatures or other local governing
bodies may from time to time direct or
agree that the public interest is best
served if one Public Housing Agency
(PHA) cedes its public housing program
to another PHA, or that two or more
PHAs should be combined into one
multijurisdictional PHA. This proposed
information collection serves to protect
HUD’s several interests in either
transaction: (1) Insuring the continued
use of the property as Public Housing;
(2) that HUD’s interests are secured; and
(3) that the Operating and Capital
subsidies that HUD pays to support the
operation and maintenance of Public
Housing is properly paid to the correct
PHA on behalf of the correct properties.
In addition to submitting
documentation to HUD, PHAs are
required to make conforming changes to
HUD’s Public Housing Information
Center (PIC).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A.
The Federal Register notice that
solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Housing Opportunities for Persons With
AIDS (HOPWA) Program.
OMB Approval Number: 2506–0133.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Form Number: HUD–40110–B, HUD–
40110–C, HUD–40110–D, SF–424, SF–
LLL, and HUD–2991.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
current paperwork reduction act
approval under OMB Control No. 2506–
0133 covers both the HOPWA formula
and competitive grant programs. The
competitive grant program includes new
competitive grants and renewal grants.
The information collection requirements
pertain to grant application submission
requirements which will be used to rate
applications, determine eligibility, and
establish grant amounts. HOPWA plans
to continue using form HUD–40110–B,
HOPWA Competitive Application &
Renewal of Permanent Supportive
Housing Project Budget Summary, as a
component of determining applicant

eligibility and establishing grant
amounts for competitive grants. Limited
technical edits are proposed for form
HUD–40110–B. HOPWA competitive
and renewal application submission
also require submission of the following
forms: SF424; SFLLL; and HUD–2991.
Form HUD–2991 is currently covered
under OMB approval number 2506–
0112.
The addition of narratives to address
the five HUD standard rating factors will
allow HUD to rate application and
further determine eligibility and
establish grant amounts. Applicants
applying for HUD competitive funds are
required to respond to these five rating
factors in narrative form. These
narratives will complement the
currently approved budget summary
form, and allow HUD to determine if
applicants are proposing projects within
statutory and regulatory limitations. The
five HUD standard rating factors
include: Factor 1: Capacity of the
Applicant and Relevant Organizational
Staff; Factor 2: Need/Extent of the
Problem; Factor 3: Soundness of
Approach; Factor 4: Leveraging
Resources; and Factor 5: Achieving
Results and Program Evaluation. New
HOPWA competitive applicants will be
required to respond to each rating factor
within the page limits establish in the
grant solicitation. HOPWA renewal
applicants will also be required to
respond with narratives, but the
information will be more limited and
focused on continued compliance with
the HOPWA program activities
originally awarded until their initial
grant application.
The reporting and recordkeeping for
both HOPWA formula and competitive
grant programs are also included in this
approval. Technical edits are proposed
for forms HUD–40110–C and HUD–
40110–D, and are limited to updating
outdated references and information
currently contained in the forms.
Grantees provide annual information on
program accomplishments that supports
program evaluation and the ability to
measure program beneficiary outcomes
related to: maintaining housing stability;
preventing homelessness; and
improving access to care and support.
Competitive grantees report through
HUD–40110–C, the HOPWA Annual
Performance Report (APR); Formula
grantees report through HUD–40110–D,
the HOPWA Consolidated Annual
Performance and Evaluation Report
(CAPER). Grantees are required to report
on the activities undertaken only. HUD
systematically reviews and conducts
data analysis in order to prepare
national and individual grantee
performance profiles that are not only

but also to communicate the program’s
