Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 120 / Friday, June 23, 2023 / Notices
• Upon agreement between OMB and
the agency all or a subset of information
may be released as part of A–11, Section
280 requirements only on
performance.gov. Additionally,
summaries of customer research and
user testing activities may be included
in public-facing customer journey maps
and summaries.
• Additional release of data must be
done coordinated with OMB.
This clearance will help the Agency
to establish a process where customer
experience is regularly monitored and
measured. The results will assist the
Agency in the planning and decisionmaking processes to improve the quality
of the Agency’s products and services.
Results from feedback activities and
surveys will be used to measure against
established baseline standards and for
measuring the Agency’s progress toward
defined goals.
There are neither legal nor technical
obstacles to the use of technology in
these information collection activities.
The determination to use technology,
and which technology to use, will be
based on the type of information
collected and the utility and the
availability of specific technology to
each respondent in a proposed customer
research activity or feedback survey.
The information collected in these
surveys will represent the minimum
burden necessary to evaluate customer
experience with the Agency’s programs
and processes. The Agency will
minimize the burden on respondents by
sampling as appropriate, asking for
readily available information, and using
short, easy-to-complete information
collection instruments.
Without regular mechanisms for
collecting and generating customer
insights, the Agency is not able to
provide the public with the highest
level of service. These activities will be
coordinated to ensure that most
individual respondents will not be
asked to respond to more than one
survey instrument per transaction or to
participate in more than one qualitative
feedback or testing activity.
Activity and survey instructions will
provide all necessary assurances of
confidentiality to the respondents.
Although there is no requirement for
such an assurance in statute, the quality
of this type of information requires
respondent candor and anonymity.
There are no changes to the burden or
information being collected.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
which:
1. Evaluate 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. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.

[Docket No. FR–6401–N–01]
Proposed Changes to the Methodology
Used for Calculating Fair Market Rents
Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Policy Development and
Research, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of proposed changes for
calculating Fair Market Rents (FMRs).
AGENCY:
The United States Housing
Act of 1937 (USHA) requires the
Secretary to publish FMRs periodically,
but not less than annually, adjusted to
be effective on October 1 of each year.
The primary uses of FMRs are to
determine payment standards for the
Housing Choice Voucher (HCV)
program, to determine initial renewal
rents for some expiring project-based
Section 8 contracts, and to serve as rent
ceilings for rental units in both the
HOME Investment Partnerships Program
and the Emergency Solutions Grants
Program and a primary rent standard
option for the Housing for Opportunities
for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA)
program. HUD also uses FMRs in the
calculation of maximum award amounts
for Continuum of Care grantees and in
the calculation of flat rents for Public
Housing units. To better determine
payment standards and related
parameters for HUD programs, HUD
proposes changes in how FMRs are
calculated in this notice and seeks
public comment on the proposed
changes. This notice also responds to
public comments that were submitted
on the publication of Fiscal Year 2023
FMRs.
DATES: Comment Due Date: July 24,
2023.
SUMMARY:
HUD invites interested
persons to submit comments regarding
the proposed changes to the calculation
of the FMRs to the Regulations Division,
Office of General Counsel, Department
of Housing and Urban Development,
451 7th Street SW, Room 10276,
Washington, DC 20410–0001.
Communications must refer to the above
docket number and title and should
contain the information specified in the
‘‘Request for Comments’’ section.
