Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 238 / Wednesday, December 11, 2024 / Notices
FEMA will review the information
provided to ensure proper
documentation of each activity.
The Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) adopted in its entirety
the Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and
Audit Requirements for Federal Awards
(2 CFR part 200) on December 26, 2014.
This rule eliminates overlapping and
duplicative requirements for
stakeholders, including States,
territories and Indian Tribal
governments, by using general terms
such as ‘‘recipient’’ or ‘‘pass-through
entity.’’ FEMA is also avoiding
unnecessary duplication, overlap and
the demand for maintenance of
requirements under HMGP in two
documents, the State Administrative
Plan, and the Tribal Administrative
Plan. FEMA instead is offering and
referring to one common set of
requirements in an ‘‘Administrative
Plan.’’ The term ‘‘State Administrative
Plan’’ is now referred to
‘‘Administrative Plan for the Hazard
Mitigation Grant Program.’’
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on August 19, 2024, at 89 FR
67101 with a 60-day public comment
period. Three public comments were
received. Two of the comments discuss
policy concerns with the HMGP and are
not germane to this information
collection. The third public comment is
a statement of support from a private
non-profit organization and FEMA
thanks them for their comment.
The purpose of this notice is to notify
the public that FEMA will submit the
information collection abstracted below
to the Office of Management and Budget
for review and clearance.

Title: Administrative Plan for the
Hazard Mitigation Grant Program.
Type of Information Collection:
Extension of a currently approved
information collection.
OMB Number: 1660–0026.
FEMA Forms: Not applicable.
Abstract: The State Administrative
Plan for the Hazard Mitigation Grant
Program (HMGP) is a procedural guide
that details how the State, territory, or
Tribal government will administer the
HMGP. The State, territory, or Tribal
government (who acts as a recipient)
must have a current administrative plan
approved by the appropriate FEMA
Regional Administrator before receiving
HMGP funds. The administrative plan
may take any form including a chapter
within a comprehensive State, territory,
or Tribal mitigation program strategy.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: 2025
American Housing Survey.
MB 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
E:\FR\FM\11DEN1.SGM
11DEN1
99892
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 238 / Wednesday, December 11, 2024 / Notices
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.
Increasing field costs and declining
response rates have led HUD to adopt a
continuous data collection model as
opposed to the periodic 5-month data
collection every other year. HUD
believes continuous data collection will
be more effective, primarily because: (1)
it eliminates the expensive, timeconsuming Regional Office AHS rampup costs every two years, and (2) it puts
in place a more experienced AHS
workforce with a constant workload. An
added benefit is that we will be able to
increase the frequency of national and
metro AHS estimates, allowing for more
current estimates and better
comparability to other data sources
which collect annual data (surveys such
as the American Community Survey and
key estimates such as homeownership/
vacancy rates).
The survey will continue to be
longitudinal, interviewing the same
housing unit every two years. The
sample will be divided into 12 cohorts
where each cohort has a 2-month data
collection period. Data collection will
begin May 2025.
In addition to the ‘‘core’’ data, HUD
plans to collect supplemental data on
climate risk and insurance, arts and
culture, home accessibility, accessory
dwelling units, and housing costs roster.
Additionally wording variations related
to sexual orientation and gender will be
tested in support of the American
Community Survey Content Test.
The 2025 survey will begin a new
longitudinal sample consisting of
approximately 175,000 housing units.
The sample is designed to provide

different target groups, such as first-time

2. With the data, HUD can evaluate,
monitor, and design HUD programs to
improve efficiency and effectiveness.
HUD received two comments.
The first, from the Pine Street Inn, a
nonprofit organization that provides
resources and support to the homeless
population in the greater Boston area.
The organization expressed strong
support for the proposed changes to the
American Housing Survey data
collection process and commented that
‘‘data regarding the country’s current
housing crisis, including the physical
condition of homes and neighborhoods,
the cost of financing and maintaining
homes, and the characteristics of
households, is of great importance to
our organization.’’ HUD appreciates the
Pine Street Inn’s comments and support
of the proposed changes for the 2025
AHS.
The second, from Manufactured
Housing Institute (MHI), expressed
support for the change to continuous
data collection, stating ‘‘MHI collects
and analyzes information to produce
research publications on a near realtime basis. MHI relies on reliable up-todate information to do so. Therefore, a
continuous data collection process
would be more accurate and improve
MHI’s capabilities in this area.’’ MHI
also asked for clarification on the
intervals for release of data and if the
releases would be annual or even
monthly. HUD appreciates the
Manufactured Housing Institute’s
comments and support of the proposed
changes for the 2025 AHS. Currently,
HUD plans to release annual and
biennial PUF data products. The
biennial file will produce two-year
estimates, similar to an average of two
consecutive annual estimates.

estimates twenty metropolitan areas and
at least seventeen states. An oversample
of HUD-assisted housing units is
included in the sample design. For the
first survey cycle (2025–26) a bridge
sample will be fielded. The bridge
sample will be drawn from housing
units that were successfully interviewed
in 2023.
The bridge sample serves as an
evaluation tool. If something unforeseen
were to happen with the 2025 sample,
the estimates from the bridge sample
can measure what the 2025 estimates
would have looked like if we had not
redesigned the AHS sample. The bridge
sample size will be 8,500.
Approximately seven percent of all
interviews will be reinterviewed for the
purpose of interviewer quality control
(an estimated total of 12,845 housing
units).
To help reduce respondent burden on
households in the longitudinal sample,
the 2025 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
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

The Federal Register notice that solicited public comment on the

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: 2025 American Housing Survey.
MB 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
[[Page 99892]]
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.
Increasing field costs and declining response rates have led HUD to
adopt a continuous data collection model as opposed to the periodic 5-
month data collection every other year. HUD believes continuous data
collection will be more effective, primarily because: (1) it eliminates
the expensive, time-consuming Regional Office AHS ramp-up costs every

rates).
The survey will continue to be longitudinal, interviewing the same
housing unit every two years. The sample will be divided into 12
cohorts where each cohort has a 2-month data collection period. Data
collection will begin May 2025.
In addition to the ``core'' data, HUD plans to collect supplemental
data on climate risk and insurance, arts and culture, home
accessibility, accessory dwelling units, and housing costs roster.
Additionally wording variations related to sexual orientation and
gender will be tested in support of the American Community Survey
Content Test.
The 2025 survey will begin a new longitudinal sample consisting of
approximately 175,000 housing units. The sample is designed to provide
estimates twenty metropolitan areas and at least seventeen states. An
oversample of HUD-assisted housing units is included in the sample
