Description of the need for the

The information is needed to ensure

that HUD’s recipients comply with the

Section 504 reporting requirements at:

• 24 CFR 8.21(c)(4) and 24 CFR 8.24

(d)—Transition Plans. Recipients must

develop transition plans setting forth

the steps necessary to complete

structural changes that would make

their programs and activities accessible

to persons with disabilities;

• 24 CFR 8.51—Self Evaluation.

Recipients must evaluate their current

policies and practices to determine

whether, in whole or in part, they do

not or may not meet the requirements of

Section 504;

• 24 CFR 8.25(c)—Needs Assessment

and Transition Plan. Public/Indian

housing authorities must assess the

needs of current tenants and applicants

on waiting lists for accessible units and

assess the extent to which such needs

have not been met or cannot reasonably

be met. PHAs must develop transition

plans setting forth steps necessary to

complete structural changes, revealed

by the needs assessment, to make their

programs and activities accessible to

persons with disabilities.

Agency Form Numbers: None.

recipients of Federal financial assistance

from this Department, including public

and private non-profit organizations and

qualified persons with disabilities.

Estimation of the total number of

hours needed to prepare the information

collection including number of

respondents, frequency of response, and

hours of response. On an annual basis,

200 respondents (HUD recipients) will

submit two (2) report(s) to HUD. It is

estimated that four (4) hours per annual

reporting period will be required of a

recipient to prepare either of the

reporting requirements for a total of

1600.

Status of the proposed information

collection: Revision of a currently

approved collection to reflect the

collection of information from HUD

recipients only.

Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork
