B. Solicitation of Public Comment VerDate Sep<11>2014 A. Overview of Information Collection Title of Information Collection: National Standards for the Physical Inspection of Real Estate (NSPIRE) Demonstration. OMB Approval Number: 2577– Pending. Type of Request: New Collection. Form Number: N/A. Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use: HUD’s Real Estate Assessment Center (REAC) has developed a new inspection model entitled the National Standards for the Physical Inspection of Real Estate (NSPIRE). Prior to nationwide implementation, REAC will test NSPIRE through a multistage Demonstration to identify potential adjustments to standards, protocols, and processes. HUD will ask public housing agencies (PHAs), and owners and agents (OA) (collectively referred to as POAs) to participate in this Demonstration through a voluntary application process and plans to test this model with approximately 4,500 properties. HUD is developing a standardized electronic system and data exchange standard for this collection and will distribute self-inspection software for properties to collect and submit this data electronically. Within the scope of this collection, HUD requests the following information from participating POAs: An annual selfinspection report or work order receipts, a property profile, copies of building system certificates, local code violations over the rolling calendar year, and participation in feedback sessions. 1. Many POAs have statutory, regulatory, or housing program contractual requirements to conduct annual self-inspections on all dwelling units. POAs will be provided with selfinspection software that will enable them to easily document and submit deficiencies that are present within dwelling units across the rolling calendar year. In lieu of submitting a self-inspection report, POAs can electronically submit work order receipts from across the rolling calendar Jkt 247001 4,500 Burden hour per response Annual burden hours 2.7 hours/property 12,150 information described in Section A on the following: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 year. This data provides reasonable assurance that every dwelling unit was evaluated for deficiencies and maintenance needs. 2. POAs will submit a property profile documenting the: Owner/company name, physical address, type of housing (e.g., section 8), structure type, number of buildings, number of floors, number of units, existence of an attached garage, types of fuel-burning appliances, and an updated floor plan. 3. POAs will submit an electronic copy of the building system certificates, including elevators, fire alarm systems, sprinkler systems, boilers (HVAC or domestic water), and lead-based paint inspection reports. HUD believes that it is important for POAs to provide this information annually as the inoperability of these systems can have a substantial effect on residents. 4. POAs will submit a list of local code violations for which the property was cited over the rolling calendar year. HUD regulations at 24 CFR 5.703(g), requires HUD housing to adhere to local code. HUD believes that compliance (or non-compliance) with local code can serve as an important indicator as to whether a property is conducting regular maintenance and whether it is providing acceptable basic housing conditions. 5. Finally, HUD will ask 900 POAs to provide Demonstration feedback via one in-person listening session. With this information, HUD will be better able to refine inspection standards and protocols ensuring resident housing is decent, safe, sanitary, and in good repair. Without the information on POAconducted physical inspections, HUD’s interests will not be protected, and HUD will not be able to easily identify risks due to neglected maintenance. Analyzing self-inspection data will allow HUD to better identify these risks and improve the accuracy of property assessments, the consistency of inspections, and ultimately to provide residents with quality affordable housing. Respondents: POAs participating in the NSPIRE Demonstration.
