SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Department is submitting 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:

Title of Proposal: Notice of Funding

Availability (NOFA) for Research to

Improve the Evaluation and Control of

Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazards.

OMB Control Number: 2539–0010.

Need for the Information and

Proposed Use: This information

collection is required in conjunction

with the issuance of NOFAs announcing

the availability of approximately

$1,500,000 for grants for Lead-Based

Paint Hazard Research. Grants are

authorized under Title X of the Housing

and Community Development Act of

1992, Pub. L. 102–550, Section 1011(g)

and other legislation.
