Title of Proposal: Notice of Proposed 

Information Collection for Public 

Comment; Recovery Act—Native 

American Housing Block Grant 

(NAHBG). 

OMB Control Number: 2577–0262. 

Description of Information Collection: 

The NAHBG Recovery Act competitive 

funding program was adapted from the 

Indian Community Development Block 

Grant (ICDBG) program; an existing 

competitive grant program administered 

by the Department of Housing and 

Urban Development (HUD), Public and 

Indian Housing (PIH), Office of Native 

American Programs (ONAP) for eligible 

Indian tribes. Tribes or their tribally 

designated housing entities (TDHE) 

were required to submit application 

information to provide a description of 

how a tribe or TDHE would use 

Recovery Act funds to provide 

affordable housing and meet the intent 

of the Recovery Act. HUD, PIH, ONAP, 

was directed by the Recovery Act to 

provide $242,250,000 for competitive 

grants to eligible entities that receive 

NAHASDA funds. All awards have been 

made under this program. The 

collection of reporting information is 

now essential for HUD to monitor grants 

and ensure that grantees are making 

proper use of federal funding. The 

NAHBG program requires quarterly 

financial reporting and annual 

performance reporting. 

Agency form number, if applicable: 

SF–272 (to be replaced by the SF–425 as 

of October 1, 2009). HUD–52735–AS, 

Annual Performance Report. 

Members of affected public: State, 

Local or Tribal Government. 

Estimation of the total number of 

hours needed to prepare the information 

collection including number of 

respondents: The estimated total 

number of burden hours needed to 

prepare the information collection is 

17,340. The number of respondents is 

102; the frequency of response for each 

form varies from quarterly and annually. 

Status of the proposed information 

collection: Revision of a Currently 

Approved Collection. 

Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, 

as amended.
