Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use This collection of information is required specifically for the application and administration of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Federal Housing Administration Section 242 Hospital Mortgage Insurance Program pursuant to 24 CFR 242, 241, 223(f), and 223(a)(7). The collection is a comprehensive set of HUD documents that are critically needed for processing applications and loan endorsements for FHA mortgage insurance under the Section 242 Hospital Mortgage Insurance Program, for ongoing asset management of such facilities, and other information related to these facilities for loan modifications, construction projects, and physical and environmental reviews. This information is requested and is used by the Office of Healthcare Facilities (OHF) and Office of Architecture and Engineering (OAE) within FHA’s Office of Healthcare Programs (OHP). The purpose for which the information is being collected by HUD is to review Section 242 applications to determine the eligibility of applicant hospitals for FHA mortgage insurance, underwrite insured hospital loans, ensure that the collateral securing each loan is adequate, capture administrative data, process initial/final endorsement, and manage FHA’s hospital portfolio. Additional information related to loan modifications, construction projects, and physical and environmental reviews is collected if applicable. The information being collected consists of various HUD forms that program participants complete with project specifications, technical descriptions, details, and/or signatures that are utilized by HUD during various stages of the application, underwriting, commitment, closing, and asset management processes involved with the administration of FHA’s Section 242 mortgage insurance program. The information is used by HUD staff for internal review of applications to determine if projects qualify for Section 242 hospital mortgage insurance and to manage and monitor the application, E:\FR\FM\24MYN1.SGM 24MYN1 khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES 24168 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 101 / Friday, May 24, 2019 / Notices commitment, initial/final endorsement, asset management, and administration processes needed to support hospital projects insured by FHA. Agreements and legal documents are used by HUD staff, lenders, borrowers, construction managers, and depository institutions, when applicable, to process initial/final endorsement of loans. Information reported for ongoing asset management of FHA-insured facilities will be used by HUD staff to monitor and manage risk within the FHA portfolio and ensure ongoing compliance with HUD Program Obligations. Information is also be used by HUD staff to determine whether the Program meets its stated goals and management objectives. The information is collected from lenders/ mortgage bankers, borrowers/hospital management officials, attorneys, general contractors/construction managers, architects/engineers, agents and others involved in hospital projects, which may, at times include local government entities and other third parties, as well as HUD staff to allow OHF to manage and monitor the application, commitment, initial/final endorsement, asset management, and administration processes needed to support hospital projects insured by FHA. This collection is needed to update and renew the current collection that was approved for a 36-month period by OMB on August 19, 2016, with an expiration date of August 31, 2019. Where changes have been made to existing OHF forms, the proposed versions are also presented in both redline/strikeout and unmarked formats. New or unchanged forms are presented in unmarked format. The revised hospital documents can be viewed at: https://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/ HUD?src=/federal_housing_ administration/healthcare_facilities/ section_242/additional_resources/242_ docs_2019renewal. Two new forms are being added to this collection: HUD–92266–OHF (Application for Transfer of Physical Assets) and HUD–92476B–OHF (Escrow Agreement for Proceeds from Partial Release of Collateral). The HUD–92266– OHF form is based on an existing Office of Multifamily form, modified for Section 242-insured hospitals. The application collects the information required for OHF staff to review requests to transfer insured physical assets to new purchasers that will continue to hold the FHA-insured loan. The HUD–92476B–OHF is being added to provide an escrow agreement template for infrequent instances when a borrower sells and requests to release HUD-insured collateral. Both documents are based on existing VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:10 May 23, 2019 Jkt 247001 versions used by the Office of Housing in other mortgage insurance programs but modified to appropriately reflect Section 242 program needs. HUD–9250–OHF (Funds Authorizations) will be removed from the collection. The document was added to Collection 2502–0602 in a prior submission and was based upon a similar form used for OHP’s residential care facility program. The form has proven to be unnecessary for the Section 242 hospital program and will be removed. Thirty-five of the forty documents within the collection are being renewed with no operational content changes, except for updated burden hour estimates and additional language added to the burden statements to ensure that requirements under 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3) are met. Additional language (specifically, the phrase ‘‘under penalty of perjury’’) was also added to clarify fraud warnings and certification for forms with certifications. Revisions are proposed for the HUD–92466–OHF (Regulatory Agreement), HUD–92422–OHF (Financial and Statistical Data for HUD Reporting), and HUD–94000–OHF (Security Instrument) to include edits that were made to clarify current policies and definitions, reflect updated general accepted accounting standards, or to address minor inconsistencies across documents. A summary of the specific changes made to the revised documents is provided below. Summary of Changes to Documents HUD–92476B–OHF Escrow Agreement for Proceeds From Partial Release of Collateral.

Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use

    This collection of information is required specifically for the 
application and administration of the Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, Federal Housing Administration Section 242 Hospital 
Mortgage Insurance Program pursuant to 24 CFR 242, 241, 223(f), and 
223(a)(7). The collection is a comprehensive set of HUD documents that 
are critically needed for processing applications and loan endorsements 
for FHA mortgage insurance under the Section 242 Hospital Mortgage 
Insurance Program, for ongoing asset management of such facilities, and 
other information related to these facilities for loan modifications, 
construction projects, and physical and environmental reviews. This 
information is requested and is used by the Office of Healthcare 
Facilities (OHF) and Office of Architecture and Engineering (OAE) 
within FHA's Office of Healthcare Programs (OHP).
    The purpose for which the information is being collected by HUD is 
to review Section 242 applications to determine the eligibility of 
applicant hospitals for FHA mortgage insurance, underwrite insured 
hospital loans, ensure that the collateral securing each loan is 
adequate, capture administrative data, process initial/final 
endorsement, and manage FHA's hospital portfolio. Additional 
information related to loan modifications, construction projects, and 
physical and environmental reviews is collected if applicable.
    The information being collected consists of various HUD forms that 
program participants complete with project specifications, technical 
descriptions, details, and/or signatures that are utilized by HUD 
during various stages of the application, underwriting, commitment, 
closing, and asset management processes involved with the 
administration of FHA's Section 242 mortgage insurance program.
    The information is used by HUD staff for internal review of 
applications to determine if projects qualify for Section 242 hospital 
mortgage insurance and to manage and monitor the application,

commitment, initial/final endorsement, asset management, and 
administration processes needed to support hospital projects insured by 
FHA. Agreements and legal documents are used by HUD staff, lenders, 
borrowers, construction managers, and depository institutions, when 
applicable, to process initial/final endorsement of loans. Information 
reported for ongoing asset management of FHA-insured facilities will be 
used by HUD staff to monitor and manage risk within the FHA portfolio 
and ensure ongoing compliance with HUD Program Obligations. Information 
is also be used by HUD staff to determine whether the Program meets its 
stated goals and management objectives. The information is collected 
from lenders/mortgage bankers, borrowers/hospital management officials, 
attorneys, general contractors/construction managers, architects/
engineers, agents and others involved in hospital projects, which may, 
at times include local government entities and other third parties, as 
well as HUD staff to allow OHF to manage and monitor the application, 
commitment, initial/final endorsement, asset management, and 
administration processes needed to support hospital projects insured by 
FHA.
    This collection is needed to update and renew the current 
collection that was approved for a 36-month period by OMB on August 19, 
2016, with an expiration date of August 31, 2019. Where changes have 
been made to existing OHF forms, the proposed versions are also 
presented in both redline/strikeout and unmarked formats. New or 
unchanged forms are presented in unmarked format. The revised hospital 
documents can be viewed at: https://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/federal_housing_administration/healthcare_facilities/section_242/additional_resources/242_docs_2019renewal.
    Two new forms are being added to this collection: HUD-92266-OHF 
(Application for Transfer of Physical Assets) and HUD-92476B-OHF 
(Escrow Agreement for Proceeds from Partial Release of Collateral). The 
HUD-92266-OHF form is based on an existing Office of Multifamily form, 
modified for Section 242-insured hospitals. The application collects 
the information required for OHF staff to review requests to transfer 
insured physical assets to new purchasers that will continue to hold 
the FHA-insured loan. The HUD-92476B-OHF is being added to provide an 
escrow agreement template for infrequent instances when a borrower 
sells and requests to release HUD-insured collateral. Both documents 
are based on existing versions used by the Office of Housing in other 
mortgage insurance programs but modified to appropriately reflect 
Section 242 program needs.
    HUD-9250-OHF (Funds Authorizations) will be removed from the 
collection. The document was added to Collection 2502-0602 in a prior 
submission and was based upon a similar form used for OHP's residential 
care facility program. The form has proven to be unnecessary for the 
Section 242 hospital program and will be removed.
    Thirty-five of the forty documents within the collection are being 
renewed with no operational content changes, except for updated burden 
hour estimates and additional language added to the burden statements 
to ensure that requirements under 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3) are met. 
Additional language (specifically, the phrase ``under penalty of 
perjury'') was also added to clarify fraud warnings and certification 
for forms with certifications. Revisions are proposed for the HUD-
92466-OHF (Regulatory Agreement), HUD-92422-OHF (Financial and 
Statistical Data for HUD Reporting), and HUD-94000-OHF (Security 
Instrument) to include edits that were made to clarify current policies
