A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Public Housing Agency (PHA) 5-Year 
and Annual Plan.
    OMB Approval Number: 2577-0226.
    Type of Request: Revision of currently approved collection.
    Form Number(s): HUD-50075-5Y, HUD-50075-ST, HUD-50075-SM, HUD-
50075-HCV, HUD-50075-HP, HUD-50075-MTW, HUD-50077-CR, HUD-50077-SL, 
HUD-50077-CRT-SM, and HUD-50077-ST-HCV-HP.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: Under 
the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request to 
review and approve the information collection listed below. The Public 
Housing Agency (PHA) Plan was created by section 5A of the United 
States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437c-1). There are two different 
PHA Plans: The Five-Year Plan and the Annual Plan. The Five-Year Plan 
describes the agency's mission, long-range goals and objectives for 
achieving its mission over a five-year period. The Annual PHA Plan is a 
comprehensive guide to PHA policies, programs, operations, and 
strategies for meeting local housing needs and goals. This revision 
integrates the MTW Supplement to the Annual PHA Plan process for PHAs 
that join MTW under the 2016 Appropriations Act (i.e., MTW Expansion).
    The PHA Plans informs HUD, residents, and the public of the PHA's 
mission for serving the needs of low, very low-income, and extremely 
low-income families and its strategy for addressing those needs. This 
information helps provide accountability to the local community for how 
PHAs spend their funding and implement their policies. Also, PHA Plans 
allow HUD to monitor the performance of programs and the performance of 
public housing agencies that administer them.
    This proposed information collection was previously published in 
the Federal Register on October 9, 2018 (FR 83, 50676) and allowed 60-
days for public comment. It should be noted that all forms except for 
the Moving to Work (MTW) Supplement were published in the Federal 
Register on October 30, 2019 (FR 84, 58167) for a 30-day public comment 
period. The four public comments received for the documents included in 
that notice were addressed at that time. The MTW Supplement was not 
included in this publication due to revisions that were needed as part 
of ongoing work on the MTW Operations Notice, which has now been 
published. The purpose of this 30-day notice is to respond to public 
comments received during the 60-day public comment period on the MTW 
Supplement and to allow for the 30-day public comment period for the 
MTW Supplement.
    Respondents (i.e. affected public): Local, Regional and State Body 
Corporate Politic Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) Governments.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,780.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 4,832 (Annual Plan: 1,152 and 5 Year 
Plan: 3,780).
    Frequency of Response: Every five years for all PHAs, annually for 
all PHAs except HERA Qualified PHAs.
    Average Hours per Response: 6.33 hrs.
    Total Estimated Burdens: 14,613.74.

B. Solicitation of Public Comment

    This notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and 
affected parties concerning the collection of information described in 
Section A on the following:
    (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for 
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
    (2) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information;
    (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
    (4) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond; including through the use of appropriate 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.
    (5) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.
    HUD encourages interested parties to submit comment in response to 
these questions.

Authority

    Section 3507 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35.

D. Overview of Significant Changes Made to the HUD-50075-MTW, MTW 
Supplement to the Annual PHA Plan

    The MTW Supplement has been updated to reflect the final MTW 
Operations Notice, which was published in the Federal Register (FR 85, 
53444) on August 28, 2020, and public comments received during the 60-
day Federal Register public comment period. A copy of the draft HUD-
50075 MTW can be obtained per the information provided earlier in this 
notice under ``For further information'', or on the HUD Moving to Work 
website at https://www.hud.gov/mtw.
    The other forms in the PHA Plan data collection were published in 
the Federal Register on October 30, 2019 for the 30-day public comment 
period and, therefore, are not included in this 30-day Federal Register 
notice.
