SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in Section A. SUMMARY: A. Overview of Information Collection Title of Information Collection: Elements for the Annual MTW Plan and Annual MTW Report. OMB Approval Number: 2577–0216. Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection. Form Number: 50900. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: All public housing authorities (PHA) are required to submit a five (5) year plan PO 00000 Frm 00051 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 86923 and annual plans as stated in Section 5A of the 1937 Act, as amended, the Moving to Work (MTW) PHAs that are subject to the Standard MTW Agreement, the Annual MTW Plan and Annual MTW Report (also known as the HUD Form 50900) are submitted in lieu of the standard annual and 5 year PHA plans. The Standard MTW Agreement was developed in 2007 and was transmitted to the existing MTW agencies in January 2008. As additional MTW PHAs were selected they too were provided with the Standard MTW Agreement. 39 MTW PHAs (known as the ‘‘Initial’’ MTW PHAs) currently operate under this agreement. In 2016, HUD extended the term of the Standard Agreement to the end of each agency’s 2028 Fiscal Year (FY). The HUD Form 50900 is a required element as part of the Standard MTW Agreement and contains important information regarding the MTW PHA’s upcoming FY activities and a retrospective look back at the MTW PHA’s preceding FY. HUD collects the information in this form in order to evaluate the impacts of MTW activities, accurately and timely respond to congressional and other inquiries regarding outcome measures, and identify promising practices learned through the MTW demonstration. Revisions are being made to the HUD Form 50900 to reduce the reporting and administrative burden on MTW PHAs. All standard metrics within the HUD Form 50900 that were previously required for MTW activities will be eliminated, though they will remain optional for MTW PHAs to report. In addition to eliminating previously required standard metrics, MTW PHAs will now have the option to share an annual narrative, self-reported PHA data, and participant success stories. In lieu of the agency-reported standard metrics, HUD will pull data already reported by the agencies through required HUD systems. This will reduce burden on the agencies. Through the Annual MTW Plan and Report, each MTW PHA will continue to inform HUD, its residents and the public of the PHA’s mission for serving the needs of low-income and very lowincome families, and the PHA’s strategy for addressing those needs. The Annual MTW Plan, like the Annual PHA Plan, provides an easily identifiable source by which residents, participants in tenantbased programs, and other members of the public may locate policies, rules, and requirements concerning the PHA’s operations, programs, and services. The appropriations act in 2016 authorized an additional 100 MTW slots E:\FR\FM\15DEN1.SGM 15DEN1
