Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 239 / Thursday, December 12, 2019 / Notices
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 (OAs)
(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 an
annual self-inspection of the property,

This notice is soliciting comments
from members of the public and affected
parties concerning the collection of
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
the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) Ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including the use
of appropriate automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology, (e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses).

including all the dwelling units. POAs
will be provided with self-inspection
software that will enable them to easily
document and submit deficiencies
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 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, if there is an attached garage,
types of fuel-burning appliances, and an
updated floor plan.
3. POAs will submit an electronic
copy of all building system certificates.
These certificates include but are not
limited to elevators, fire alarm systems
(including carbon monoxide detectors if
part of the fire alarm system), 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 the resident.

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),
require 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 feedback on the NSPIRE
Demonstration 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 information from the
property’s annual self-inspection,
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.
