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; (2) evaluate the 

accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information; (3) enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and (4) 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. 

This Notice also lists the following 

information: 

Title of Proposal: Loan Guarantees for 

Indian Housing. 

OMB Control Number: 2577–0200. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: The 

information is required by section 184 

of the Housing and Community 

Development Act of 1994, as amended 

by section 701 of the Native American 

Housing Assistance and SelfDetermination Act of 1996 and 

implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 

1005. HUD has the authority to 

guarantee loans for the construction, 

acquisition, rehabilitation or refinance 

of 1- to 4-family homes to be owned by 

Native Americans in restricted Indian 

lands or service areas. Mortgage lenders 

approved by HUD provide borrower and 

lender information to HUD for guarantee 

of the loan. If the information was not 

provided then HUD would be unable to 

guarantee loans and as a result lenders 

would be unable to provide financing to 

Native Americans. 

Members of affected public: 

Businesses or Other For-profit. 

Estimation of the total number of 

hours needed to prepare the information 

collection including number of 

respondents, frequency of response, and 

hours of response: The estimated 

number of respondents is 3000 annually 

with one response per respondents. The 

average number of responses is 58,100, 

for a total reporting burden of 20,805 

hours. 

Status of the proposed information 

collection: Revision of currently 

approved collection. 

Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork 

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

as amended. 

Dated: April 5, 2012.
