SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A.
The Federal Register notice that
solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on September 18,
2024 at 89 FR 76498.
This notice informs the public that
HUD is seeking approval from OMB for
the information collection described in
Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Requirements for Designating Housing
Projects.
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0192.
Type of Request: Revision of currently
approved collection.
Form Number: None.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
information collection burden
associated with designated housing is
required by statute. Section 10 of the
Housing Opportunity and Extension Act
of 1996 modified Section 7 of the U.S.
Housing Act of 1937 to require Public
Housing Agencies (PHAs) to submit a
plan for HUD approval before a
project(s) can be designated as either
elderly only, disabled only, or elderly
and disabled. In this plan, PHAs must
document why the designation is
needed and provide the following
information:
1. Description of the designated
housing plan;
2. Justification for the designation;
3. Availability of alternative housing
resources for the non-designated
population(s);

policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/pay-
PO 00000
Frm 00127
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
4. Impact on the availability of
accessible housing;
5. A statement that existing tenants in
good standing will not be evicted;
6. A statement of the resources that
will be made available if the PHA offers
voluntary relocation benefits; and
7. Information describing how the
DHP is consistent with any outstanding
court orders, lawsuits, investigations,
Voluntary Compliance Agreements
(VCAs), Conciliation Agreements, or
Letters of Findings or Determinations,
etc., including for example, actions
under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act,
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act,
the Age Discrimination Act, the Fair
Housing Act, or the Americans with
Disabilities Act.
Respondents (i.e. affected public):
State, or Local Government.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 21
for New and Amendment DHPs and 22
for DHP Renewals.
Estimated Number of Responses: 1
per request.
Frequency of Response: As needed for
New/Amendment DHPs and every two
years for renewals.
Average Hours per Response: 15
hours for New and Amendment DHPs
and 3 hours for DHP Renewals.
Total Estimated Burdens: 315 hours
for New and Amendment DHPs and 66
for DHP Renewals.
The previous estimation of 270
annual burden hours has been increased
to 315 for New and Amendment DHPs
and 66 for DHP Renewals. This change
is based on the average number of Plans
submitted between Calendar Years 2022
and 2023. In FY22 and FY23, several
Public Housing Authorities (PHAs)
failed to renew their DHP in a timely
manner, leading to a slight uptick in the
number of respondents, as these PHAs
were required to submit new plans for
approval. Furthermore, HUD anticipates
a continued decline in the number of
respondents due to the ongoing trend in
PHAs repositioning their developments
and exiting the public housing program.
The national average PHA staff salary
= $64,590 1 per year or $31.00 per hour.
The calculation for costs is as follows:
• New and Amendment DHPs: 21
PHAs × 15 hours = 315 hours × $31 2 =
$9,765.
• DHP Renewals: 22 PHAs × 3 hours
= 66 hours × $31 = $2,046.
