Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 180 / Monday, September 19, 2022 / Notices
Type of Information Collection: New
information collection.
OMB Number: 1660–NW153.
FEMA Forms: DCM Federal Award
Application, FF–104–FY–22–204; DCM
Federal Award Modification Request,
FF–104–FY–22–206; DCM Federal
Award Request for Appeal, FF–104–FY–
22–207; DCM Federal Award Monthly
Reporting, FF–104–FY–22–208; and
DCM Federal Award Budget Workbook,
FF–104–FY–22–209.
Abstract: This collection tool will
primarily be used as a guide to support
state, tribal, and territorial governments
(STTs) when applying, requesting a
modification, or appealing a FEMA
determination for Disaster Case
Management Federal funding to
supplement and expand their existing
capacity. In extraordinary
circumstances, the STT may request that
FEMA provide an opportunity for a
local government agency or qualified
private organization to apply for the
DCM Federal Award directly. Once
awarded, the STT will utilize the
monthly reporting form to report
aggregate data about the performance of
their program. All information collected
within these forms will be submitted to
FEMA by the STT.
When applying for the STT DCM
Federal award, the STT will respond to
the questions within the application
form, developing an overall assessment
that details activities that have occurred
since the start of the disaster; what
resources and capabilities are currently
available or anticipated to be available;
and what the estimated population to
serve is. The STT will also outline the
implementation of their program by
detailing their service delivery and work
plans.
If the STT is awarded an STT DCM
Federal award, the STT may need to
modify their initial award. In doing so,
the STT will utilize the Request for
Modification collection instrument to
answer questions that will assist them
in justifying the need to request
additional time or funding to further
support the implementation of their
program.
If the STT chooses to appeal a
determination made by FEMA, the STT
will outline the purpose for their
submission and provide new, justifying
information that was not included in
their initial or modification request by
using the Request to Appeal collection
instrument.
For each of the three forms mentioned
above, the STT may also need to request
initial or supplemental funding by using
the Budget Workbook. This collection
instrument enables the STT to outline
line items that are necessary to
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 256001
implement the program, including
personnel, travel, supplies, and
contractual items among others. The
STT can use this workbook to detail the
request at all levels in program
implementation so that it can calculate
the total amount of funding needed.
Once awarded, the STT will report
aggregate data on all aspects of program
implementation, including staffing,
caseloads, survivor/client needs, and
the types of referrals being made, as
well as challenges faced during the
month and best practices/lessons
learned. This information assists FEMA
in confirming the effectiveness of the
program, providing technical assistance
to ensure all survivors are able to
receive DCM services, and to
continuously evolve programmatic
implementation through the collection
of best practices/lessons learned. For the
purpose of this publication, ‘‘State’’ in
the Affected Public below includes the
fifty States, all Territories, and the
District of Columbia.
Affected Public: State, Local and
Tribal Governments.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
55.

This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
section A.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: 2023
American Housing Survey.
OMB Approval Number: 2528–0017.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use: The
purpose of the American Housing
Survey (AHS) is to supply the public
with detailed and timely information
about housing quality, housing costs,
and neighborhood assets, in support of
effective housing policy, programs, and
markets. Title 12, United States Code,
sections 1701Z–1, 1701Z–2(g), and
1710Z–10a mandates the collection of
this information.
Like the previous surveys, the 2023
AHS will collect ‘‘core’’ data on
subjects, such as the amount and types
of changes in the housing inventory, the
physical condition of the housing
inventory, the characteristics of the
occupants, housing costs for owners and
renters, the persons eligible for and
beneficiaries of assisted housing,
remodeling and repair frequency,
reasons for moving, the number and
characteristics of vacancies, and
characteristics of resident’s
neighborhood. In addition to the ‘‘core’’
data, HUD plans to collect supplemental
data on potential health and safety

private organizations also use AHS data
in efforts of specific interest and
concern to their respective
communities.
The Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) needs the
AHS data for the following two reasons:
1. With the data, policy analysts can
monitor the interaction among housing
needs, demand and supply, as well as
changes in housing conditions and
costs, to aid in the development of
housing policies and the design of
housing programs appropriate for
different target groups, such as first-time
home buyers and the elderly.
2. With the data, HUD can evaluate,
monitor, and design HUD programs to
improve efficiency and effectiveness.
Members of affected public:
Households.
Estimated number of respondents:
137,532.
Estimated time per response: 30.477
minutes.
Frequency of response: One time
every two years.
Estimated total annual burden hours:
69,859.
Estimated total annual cost: The only
cost to respondents is that of their time.
The total estimated cost is $69,000,000.
Respondent’s obligation: Voluntary.
Legal authority: The collection of
information is conducted under title 12,
United States Code, section 1701z and
section 3507 of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 35, as
amended.

affording housing costs, including
forced moves and temporary housing
situations, urbanization of the
neighborhood, sexual orientation and
gender, parent’s country of birth and
previous home ownership, housing
characteristics that increase heat
vulnerability, and experience and
consequences of power outages.
The AHS national longitudinal
sample consists of approximately 96,000
housing units, and includes oversample
from the largest 15 metropolitan areas
and approximately 12,000 HUD-assisted
housing units. In addition to the
national longitudinal sample, HUD
plans to conduct 10 additional
metropolitan area longitudinal samples,
each with approximately 3,000 housing
units (for a total of 32,535 metropolitan
area housing units). The 10 additional
metropolitan area longitudinal samples
were last surveyed in 2019. Around 7
percent of all interviews will be
reinterviewed for the purpose of
interviewer quality control (for a total of
8,997 housing units).
To help reduce respondent burden on
households in the longitudinal sample,
the 2023 AHS will make use of
dependent interviewing techniques,
which will decrease the number of
questions asked. Policy analysts,
program managers, budget analysts, and
Congressional staff use AHS data to
advise executive and legislative
branches about housing conditions and
the suitability of public policy
initiatives. Academic researchers and
