Form Numbers: 52611, 52614, 52617, 52619, 52620A, 52620B, 52621A, 52624, 52625, 5679, 5977, 5978. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: RAD allows Public Housing, Mod Rehab, Rent Supp, RAP, and 202 PRAC properties to convert to long-term project-based Section 8 rental assistance contracts. Participation in the demonstration is voluntary and HUD approval is discretionary. Participating Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) and Multifamily Owners are required to submit documentation for processing and completing the conversion. Through these documents (collectively, the RAD documents), HUD evaluates whether the PHA or owner has met all of the requirements necessary to complete conversion as outlined in Housing Notice 2019–09/PIH Notice 2019–23 (HA) Rental Assistance Demonstration—Final Implementation Notice (RAD Notice) Revision 4 and Housing/PIH Notice 2016–17—Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Notice PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 29739 Regarding Fair Housing and Civil Rights Requirements and Relocation Requirements Applicable to RAD First Component—Public Housing Conversions or successor notices. The RAD processing request is made through a Web-based portal. Overall, the RAD documents and information requested through such documents allow HUD to determine which applicants continue to meet the eligibility and conversion requirements. Finally, all applicants will be required to sign the appropriate contractual documents to complete conversion and bind both the applicant and HUD, as well as set forth the rights and duties of the applicant and HUD, with respect to the converted project and any payments under that project. This is a revision request of a currently approved collection. Several changes have been made under both components of RAD. The changes under the First Component of RAD are as follows: The inclusion of the RAD Application under this ICR (formerly under OMB Approval Number 2577–0278), the reorganization and streamlining of RAD Fair Housing, Civil Rights, and Relocation Submission Requirements, an update of all forms to reflect programmatic changes and improvements over the past three years, the replacement of a rider to an existing PBV HAP contract with a single contract form that incorporates all requirements into a single form, the creation of a survey of new contract voucher administrators to ensure that the amount of funding provided for converted properties is adequate, and the creation of a Post-Closing Completion Certification form for owners to document compliance with certain requirements. In addition, under the Second Component of RAD, the changes are as follows: The creation of the Submission of Interest for owners to connect with HUD for technical assistance, the creation of HAP contracts for the conversion of Project Rental Assistance Contract (PRAC) to PBRA and PBV as well as the new Elderly Housing Use Agreement to be recorded on PRAC properties that have converted through RAD, an update of all forms to reflect programmatic changes and improvements over the past three years, and the implementation of the Mod Rehab data, a collection of owner information requested. Both Components of RAD will now have the incorporation of a Conversion Plan under the Second Component, modeled after the Financing Plan used in the First Component. Both components will also now include a collection of a postclosing completion certification to monitor compliance with requirements E:\FR\FM\18MYN1.SGM 18MYN1 29740 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 96 / Monday, May 18, 2020 / Notices agreed to, as part of the conversion, and ensuring that any and all record-keeping that PHAs and owners must undertake to comply with requirements under the RAD Notice is acknowledged under this ICR.

    Title of Information Collection: Rental Assistance Demonstration 
(RAD); Supporting Contracts and Processing Requirements.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0612.
    OMB Expiration Date: 04/30/2020.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Form Numbers: 52611, 52614, 52617, 52619, 52620A, 52620B, 52621A, 
52624, 52625, 5679, 5977, 5978.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: RAD 
allows Public Housing, Mod Rehab, Rent Supp, RAP, and 202 PRAC 
properties to convert to long-term project-based Section 8 rental 
assistance contracts. Participation in the demonstration is voluntary 
and HUD approval is discretionary. Participating Public Housing 
Agencies (PHAs) and Multifamily Owners are required to submit 
documentation for processing and completing the conversion. Through 
these documents (collectively, the RAD documents), HUD evaluates 
whether the PHA or owner has met all of the requirements necessary to 
complete conversion as outlined in Housing Notice 2019-09/PIH Notice 
2019-23 (HA) Rental Assistance Demonstration--Final Implementation 
Notice (RAD Notice) Revision 4 and Housing/PIH Notice 2016-17--Rental 
Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Notice Regarding Fair Housing and Civil 
Rights Requirements and Relocation Requirements Applicable to RAD First 
Component--Public Housing Conversions or successor notices. The RAD 
processing request is made through a Web-based portal. Overall, the RAD 
documents and information requested through such documents allow HUD to 
determine which applicants continue to meet the eligibility and 
conversion requirements. Finally, all applicants will be required to 
sign the appropriate contractual documents to complete conversion and 
bind both the applicant and HUD, as well as set forth the rights and 
duties of the applicant and HUD, with respect to the converted project 
and any payments under that project. This is a revision request of a 
currently approved collection. Several changes have been made under 
both components of RAD. The changes under the First Component of RAD 
are as follows: The inclusion of the RAD Application under this ICR 
(formerly under OMB Approval Number 2577-0278), the reorganization and 
streamlining of RAD Fair Housing, Civil Rights, and Relocation 
Submission Requirements, an update of all forms to reflect programmatic 
changes and improvements over the past three years, the replacement of 
a rider to an existing PBV HAP contract with a single contract form 
that incorporates all requirements into a single form, the creation of 
a survey of new contract voucher administrators to ensure that the 
amount of funding provided for converted properties is adequate, and 
the creation of a Post-Closing Completion Certification form for owners 
to document compliance with certain requirements. In addition, under 
the Second Component of RAD, the changes are as follows: The creation 
of the Submission of Interest for owners to connect with HUD for 
technical assistance, the creation of HAP contracts for the conversion 
of Project Rental Assistance Contract (PRAC) to PBRA and PBV as well as 
the new Elderly Housing Use Agreement to be recorded on PRAC properties 
that have converted through RAD, an update of all forms to reflect 
programmatic changes and improvements over the past three years, and 
the implementation of the Mod Rehab data, a collection of owner 
information requested. Both Components of RAD will now have the 
incorporation of a Conversion Plan under the Second Component, modeled 
after the Financing Plan used in the First Component. Both components
