Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Green and Resilient Retrofit Program
(‘‘GRRP’’) is newly funding through
Title III of the Inflation Reduction Act
of 2022, H.R. 5376 (IRA), in section
30002 titled ‘‘Improving Energy
Efficiency or Water Efficiency or
Climate Resilience of Affordable
Housing’’ (the ‘‘IRA’’), authorizing HUD
to make loans, grants to improve energy
or water efficiency; enhance indoor air
quality or sustainability; implement the
use of zero-emission electricity
generation, low-emission building
materials or processes, energy storage,
or building electrification strategies; or
address climate resilience of eligible
HUD-assisted multifamily properties.
The program leverages significant
technological advancements in utility
efficiency and adds a focus on preparing
for climate hazards—both reducing
residents’ and properties’ exposure to
hazards and protecting life, livability,
and property when disaster strikes.
With its dual focus, GRRP is the first
program to consider, at the national
scale, how best to approach both green
and energy efficiency upgrades
simultaneously with investment in
climate resilience strategies in
multifamily housing. HUD is taking a
multi-faceted approach to deploy these
funds multiple funding rounds and for
properties at different development
stages.
Funding under this program will be
made through multiple cohorts under
one or multiple Notices of Funding
Opportunity (NOFOs) that will detail
the application process for eligible
applicants. This collection is necessary
in order to receive applications
requesting funding under this program.
Respondents: HUD-assisted
multifamily owners.
Estimated Number of Respondents:

Description of the need for the

issuing this NOFO under the authority
of the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2023 (Pub. L. 117–328, enacted
December 29, 2022) (Appropriations
Act) for the identification and removal
of barriers to affordable housing
production and preservation. The most
successful proposals in this competition
will demonstrate not only how
applicants identify and remove
affordable housing barriers within their
jurisdiction(s), but also demonstrate: (1)
progress and a commitment to
overcoming local barriers to facilitate
the increase in affordable housing
production and preservation; and (2) an
acute demand for housing affordable to
households with incomes below 100
percent of the area median income.
HUD encourages applicants to also
consider how their proposed activities
PO 00000
Frm 00069

will address issues related to affordable
housing production and preservation,
such as advancing equity, locating
affordable housing near transit and
other services, and developing and
preserving affordable housing in
accordance with input from community
members and other stakeholders.
Respondents: State and local
governments, Metropolitan Planning
Organizations and Multijurisdictional
Entities.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
100.
Estimated Number of Responses: 100.
Frequency of Response: 1.

Total Estimated Burdens: 1100.
The estimated burden for this NOFO
application collection includes HUD’s
Standardized Grant Application forms
which have been reviewed and
approved by OMB under control
number: 2501–0017. Additionally, as
stated above, OMB has reviewed and
approved the post award activity for
CDBG activities under control numbers:
2506–0077, 0085, 0117, and 0165. The
burden hours and requirements under
the above-mentioned approved
collections have not been altered in any
way. Applicants are asked to provide
narrative responses detailing their
proposed activities using PRO Housing
funding. Applicants are also required to
affirmatively acknowledge the
statutorily required certification, located
in Appendix D of the NOFO. HUD is
collecting certifications from all
applicants, and there is a specific
certification form depending on each
applicant type: local governments, state
governments, metropolitan planning
organizations and multijurisdictional
entities. Each applicant is only required
to complete one certification form. The
certification form collects information
related to a variety of laws, including
CDBG requirements and cross-cutting
requirements. The applicant will be
expected to review and sign the form.
If an applicant is proposing a
partnership with one or more entities as
part of their application submission, the
applicant must provide documentation
of that partnership in the form of
partner letters from each partner and a
partnership agreement. The burden
hours include submission of
documentation of partnership, if
required. Optional partnership
templates are included in the
application package, which applicants
may choose to use to satisfy these
requirements.
The burden hours associated with the
above-mentioned forms have been
included in the burden hours list below.
