SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Department will submit the proposed

information collection to OMB for

review, as required by the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.

Chapter 35, as amended).

This Notice is soliciting comments

from members of the public and affected

agencies concerning the proposed

collection of information to: (1) Evaluate

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;

Title of Proposal: Brief Survey of HUD

Lead Hazard Control Grantees

OMB Control Number: Not applicable.

Need For the Information and

Proposed Use: This information

collection is required to assist in the

design of a study to evaluate the

effectiveness of lead hazard control

interventions performed on private

housing by a sample of the recipients of

HUD lead hazard control grants (grant

recipients include state or local

governments). A similar study has been

completed for a sample of 12 recipients

of LHC grants from Rounds 1 and 2 of

the grant program (awards made in 1992

and 1993). A new evaluation study is

needed to assess the effectiveness of

LHC interventions performed by a

sample of LHC grants from Rounds 3

through 7 of the program. The new

evaluation is needed to asses factors or

conditions that could not be assessed in

the completed study (e.g., novel

intervention protocols, communities in

different geographic areas).

A brief survey will be conducted of

potential study participants to provide

information to be used in selecting a

sample of final study participants. This

research should contribute to an

eventual reduction in the national

prevalence of childhood lead poisoning.

Agency Form Numbers: None.

Members of Affected Public: State or

local government recipients of HUD

lead hazard control grants during

Rounds 3–7 of the grant program (1994–

2000).

Total Burden Estimate (first year):

Total Estimated Hours: 375.
