A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Indian
Community Development Block Grant
Information Collection.
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0191.
Type of Request: Extension of
currently approved collection.
Form Number: SF–425, HUD–2516,
and Annual Status and Evaluation
Report (ASER).
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: Title I of
the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974 authorizes
Indian Community Development Block
Grants (ICDBG) and requires that grants
be awarded annually on a competitive
basis. The purpose of the ICDBG
program is to develop viable Indian and
Alaska Native communities by creating
decent housing, suitable living
environments, and economic
opportunities primarily for low- and
moderate-income persons. Consistent
with this objective, not less than 70
percent of the expenditures are to
benefit low-and moderate-income
persons. Eligible applicants include
Federally recognized tribes, which
includes Alaska Native communities,
and tribally authorized tribal
organizations. Eligible categories of
PO 00000

funding include housing rehabilitation,
land acquisition to support new
housing, homeownership assistance,
public facilities and improvements,
economic development, and
microenterprise programs. For a
complete description of eligible
activities, please refer to 24 CFR part
1003, subpart C.
The ICDBG program regulations are at
24 CFR part 1003. The ICDBG program
requires eligible applicants to submit
information to enable HUD to select the
best projects for funding during annual
competitions. Additionally, the
information submitted is essential for
HUD in monitoring grants to ensure that
grantees are complying with applicable
statutes and regulations and
implementing activities as approved.
ICDBG recipients are required to
submit annually a Federal Financial
Report (SF–425) that describes the use
of grant funds drawn from the
recipient’s line of credit. The reports are
used to monitor cash transfers to the
recipients and obtain expenditure data
from the recipients. (2 CFR 200.327)
The regulations at 24 CFR part 200
require that grantees and sub-grantees
take all necessary affirmative steps to
assure that minority firms, women’s
business enterprises, and labor surplus
area firms are used when possible.
Consistent with these regulations, 24
CFR 1003.506(b) requires that ICDBG
grantees report on these activities on an
annual basis, with Contract and
Subcontract Activity Report being due
to HUD on October 10 of each year
(HUD–2516).
The regulations at 24 CFR 1003.506
instruct recipients to submit to HUD an
Annual Status and Evaluation Report
(ASER) that describes the progress made
in completing approved activities with
a listing of work to be completed; a
breakdown of funds expended; and
when the project is completed, a
program evaluation expressing the
effectiveness of the project in meeting
community development needs. The
ASER is due by November 15 each year
and at grant closeout. The information
collected will allow HUD to accurately
audit the program.
Respondents: Federally recognized
Native American Tribes, Alaska Native
communities and corporations, and
tribal organizations.
