A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Standardized Form for Collecting 

Information Regarding Race and Ethnic 

Data. 

OMB Approval Number: 2535–0113. 

Type of Request: Reinstatement with 

change of a previously approved 

collection. 

Form Numbers: HUD–27061. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: HUD’s 

standardized form for the Collection of 

Race and Ethnic Data complies with 

OMB’s revised standards for Federal 

Agencies issued, October 30, 1997. 

These standards apply to HUD Program 

Office and partners that collect, 

maintain, and report Federal Data on 

race and ethnicity for program 

administrative reporting. 

Members of Affected Public: 

Individuals or Households, Business or 

other-for-profit, Not-for-profit 

institutions, State, Local or Tribal 

Government. 

Estimation of the total number of 

hours needed to prepare the information 

collection including number of 

responses, frequency of responses, and 

hours of responses: This proposal will 

result in no significant increase in the 

current information collection burden. 

An estimation of the total number of 

hours needed to provide the information 

for each grant application is 1 hour; 

however, the burden will be assessed 

against each individual grant program 

submission under the Paperwork 

Reduction Act; number of respondents 

is an estimated 11,000; 60% of 

responses will be quarterly and 40% 

annually. 

Status of the Proposed Information 

Collection: Extension of a currently 

approved collection. 

Solicitation of Public Comment 

This notice is soliciting comments 

from members of the public and affected 

parties concerning the collection of 

information described in Section A on 

the following: 

(1) 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) The accuracy of the agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information; 

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(4) Ways to 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. 

HUD encourages interested parties to 

submit comment in response to these 

questions.
