these data to monitor total housing production and its affordability.

institutions.
    Estimation of the total numbers of hours needed to prepare the 
information collection including number of respondents, frequency of 
response, and hours of response:
    Number of respondents: 4,000.

    Status of the proposed information collection: Pending OMB 
approval.

    Authority: Title 42 U.S.C. 5424 note, Title 13 U.S.C. Section 
8(b), and Title 12, U.S.C., Section 1701z-1.
