SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Proposal: Public/Private
Partnerships for the Mixed-Finance
Development of Public Housing Units.
OMB Control Number: 2577–0275.
Type of Request: Reinstatement
without Change.
Form Number: HUD–50156; HUD–
50157, HUD–50158, HUD–50159, HUD–
50160, HUD–50161.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Quality Housing and Work
Responsibility Act of 1998 (P.L. 195–
276, approved October 21, 1998), also
known as the Public Housing Reform
Act, created Section 35 of the U.S.
Housing Act of 1937, 42 U.S.C. 1437.
Section 35 allows PHAs to own, operate,
assist or otherwise participate in the
development and operation of mixedfinance projects. Mixed-finance
development refers to the development
or rehabilitation of public housing,
where the public housing units are
owned in whole or in part by an entity
other than a PHA. Prior to this, all
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
public housing had to be developed and
owned by a Public Housing Authority
(PHA). However, Section 35 allowed
PHAs to provide Section 9 capital and
operating assistance to mixed-finance
projects, which are also financially
assisted by private and other resources.
Private and other resources include tax
credit equity, private mortgages and
other federal, state or local funds.
Section 35 also allows non-PHA owner
entities to own and operate mixedfinance projects that contain both public
housing and non-public housing units,
or only public housing units. Along
with public housing unit development,
mixed-finance real estate development
or rehabilitation transactions are used to
extend public housing appropriations in
housing development and to develop
mixed-income housing, where public
housing residents are anonymously
mixed in with affordable and market
rate housing residents.
In order to approve the development
of mixed-finance projects, HUD collects
certain information from each PHA/
Ownership Entity. Under current
regulations, HUD collects and reviews
the essential documents included in this
ICR in order to determine whether or
not approval should be given. After
approval is given and the documents are
recorded by the associated county, HUD
collects the recorded versions of the
documents in this ICR, along with all
financing and legal agreements that the
PHA/owner entity has with HUD and
with third-parties in connection with
that mixed-finance project. This
includes unique legal documents along
with standardized forms and
‘‘Certifications and Assurances,’’ which
are not exempted under PRA.
Regulations for the processing of mixedfinance public housing projects are at 24
CFR part 905 subpart F (§ 905). This
information is collected to ensure that
the mixed-finance development effort
has sufficient funds to reach
completion, remain financially viable,
E:\FR\FM\20DEN1.SGM
20DEN1
65359
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 244 / Thursday, December 20, 2018 / Notices
and follow HUD legal and programmatic
guidelines for housing project
development or rehabilitation,
ownership and use restrictions, as well
as preserving HUD’s rights to the
project.
PHAs must provide information to
HUD before a proposal can be approved
for mixed-finance development.
Information on HUD-prescribed forms
and in HUD-prescribed contracts and
agreements provides HUD with
sufficient information to enable a
determination that funds should or
should not be reserved or a contractual
commitment made. Regulations at 24
CFR part 905.606, ‘‘Development
Proposal’’ states that a Mixed-finance
Development Proposal (Proposal) must
be submitted to HUD in order to
facilitate approval of the development of
public housing. The subpart also lists

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Introduction
On April 20, 2010, the mobile
offshore drilling unit Deepwater
Horizon, which was being used to drill
a well for BP Exploration and
Production, Inc. (BP), in the Macondo
prospect (Mississippi Canyon 252—
MC252), experienced a significant
explosion, fire, and subsequent sinking
in the Gulf of Mexico, resulting in an
unprecedented volume of oil and other
discharges from the rig and from the
wellhead on the seabed. The Deepwater
Horizon oil spill is the largest oil spill
in U.S. history, discharging millions of
barrels of oil over a period of 87 days.
In addition, well over one million
gallons of dispersants were applied to
the waters of the spill area in an attempt
to disperse the spilled oil. An
undetermined amount of natural gas
PO 00000
Frm 00024
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
was also released into the environment
as a result of the spill.
The Trustees conducted the natural
resource damage assessment (NRDA) for
the Deepwater Horizon oil spill under
the Oil Pollution Act 1990 (OPA; 33
U.S.C. 2701 et seq.). Pursuant to OPA,
Federal and State agencies act as
trustees on behalf of the public to assess
natural resource injuries and losses and
to determine the actions required to
compensate the public for those injuries
and losses. The OPA further instructs
the designated trustees to develop and
implement a plan for the restoration,
rehabilitation, replacement, or
acquisition of the equivalent of the
injured natural resources under their
trusteeship, including the loss of use
and services from those resources from
the time of injury until the time of
restoration to baseline (the resource
quality and conditions that would exist
if the spill had not occurred) is
complete.
The Deepwater Horizon Trustees are:
• U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI), as
represented by the National Park Service,
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and Bureau
of Land Management;
• National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA), on behalf of the
U.S. Department of Commerce;
• U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA);
• U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA);
• State of Louisiana Coastal Protection and
Restoration Authority, Oil Spill Coordinator’s
Office, Department of Environmental Quality,
Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, and
Department of Natural Resources;
• State of Mississippi Department of
Environmental Quality;
• State of Alabama Department of
Conservation and Natural Resources and
Geological Survey of Alabama;
• State of Florida Department of
Environmental Protection and Fish and
Wildlife Conservation Commission; and
• State of Texas: Texas Parks and Wildlife
Department, Texas General Land Office, and
Texas Commission on Environmental
Quality.
The Trustees reached and finalized a
settlement of their natural resource
damage claims with BP in an April 4,
2016, Consent Decree approved by the
U.S. District Court for the Eastern
District of Louisiana. Pursuant to that
Consent Decree, restoration projects in
Louisiana are now selected and
implemented by the Louisiana Trustee
Implementation Group (TIG). The
Louisiana TIG is composed of the
following Trustees:
• U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI), as
represented by the National Park Service,

Title of Proposal: Public/Private Partnerships for the Mixed-
Finance Development of Public Housing Units.
OMB Control Number: 2577-0275.
Type of Request: Reinstatement without Change.
Form Number: HUD-50156; HUD-50157, HUD-50158, HUD-50159, HUD-50160,
HUD-50161.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The
Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998 (P.L. 195-276,
approved October 21, 1998), also known as the Public Housing Reform
Act, created Section 35 of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937, 42 U.S.C.
1437. Section 35 allows PHAs to own, operate, assist or otherwise
participate in the development and operation of mixed-finance projects.
Mixed-finance development refers to the development or rehabilitation
of public housing, where the public housing units are owned in whole or
in part by an entity other than a PHA. Prior to this, all public
housing had to be developed and owned by a Public Housing Authority
(PHA). However, Section 35 allowed PHAs to provide Section 9 capital
and operating assistance to mixed-finance projects, which are also
financially assisted by private and other resources. Private and other
resources include tax credit equity, private mortgages and other
federal, state or local funds. Section 35 also allows non-PHA owner
entities to own and operate mixed-finance projects that contain both
public housing and non-public housing units, or only public housing
units. Along with public housing unit development, mixed-finance real
estate development or rehabilitation transactions are used to extend
public housing appropriations in housing development and to develop
mixed-income housing, where public housing residents are anonymously
mixed in with affordable and market rate housing residents.
In order to approve the development of mixed-finance projects, HUD
collects certain information from each PHA/Ownership Entity. Under
current regulations, HUD collects and reviews the essential documents
included in this ICR in order to determine whether or not approval
should be given. After approval is given and the documents are recorded
by the associated county, HUD collects the recorded versions of the
documents in this ICR, along with all financing and legal agreements
that the PHA/owner entity has with HUD and with third-parties in
connection with that mixed-finance project. This includes unique legal
documents along with standardized forms and ``Certifications and
Assurances,'' which are not exempted under PRA. Regulations for the
processing of mixed-finance public housing projects are at 24 CFR part
905 subpart F (Sec. 905). This information is collected to ensure that
the mixed-finance development effort has sufficient funds to reach
completion, remain financially viable,
[[Page 65359]]
and follow HUD legal and programmatic guidelines for housing project
development or rehabilitation, ownership and use restrictions, as well
as preserving HUD's rights to the project.
PHAs must provide information to HUD before a proposal can be
approved for mixed-finance development. Information on HUD-prescribed
forms and in HUD-prescribed contracts and agreements provides HUD with
sufficient information to enable a determination that funds should or
should not be reserved or a contractual commitment made. Regulations at
24 CFR part 905.606, ``Development Proposal'' states that a Mixed-
finance Development Proposal (Proposal) must be submitted to HUD in
order to facilitate approval of the development of public housing. The
subpart also lists the information that is required in the Proposal.
The documentation required is submitted using the collection documents
(ICs) in this ICR.
