A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Proposal: Public Housing 

Agency Executive Compensation 

Information. 

OMB Approval Number: 2577–0272. 

Type of Request: Reinstatement, with 

changes, of a previously approved 

collection. 

Form Number: Form HUD–52725. 

Description of the need for the

to PIH Notice 2014–01, HUD collects 

information on the compensation 

provided by public housing agencies 

(PHAs) to the top management official, 

top financial official, and highest 

compensated employee, similar to the 

information that non-profit 

organizations receiving federal tax 

exemptions are required to report to the 

IRS annually. Because PHAs receive 

significant direct federal funds HUD has 

been collecting compensation 

information to enhance regulatory 

oversight by HUD, as well as state and 

local authorities. HUD provides the 

information collected to the public. The 

compensation data collected includes 

base salary and bonus, and incentive 

and other compensation, and the extent 

to which these payments are made with 

federal funds. 

Respondents: Public Housing 

Agencies. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

Approximately 4,000. 

Estimated Number of Responses: 

Approximately 4,000. 

Frequency of Response: Annual. 

Average Hours per Response: 30 

minutes 

Total Estimated Burdens: The total 

burden hours is estimated to be 2,000 

hours annually. The total burden cost is 

estimated to be $44,740. 

B. 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.

unless a Federal permit allows such 

activities. Both the Act and the National 

Environmental Policy Act require that 

we invite public comment before 

issuing these permits.

comments must be received on or before 

April 22, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Act 

(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) prohibits 

activities with endangered and 

threatened species unless a Federal 

permit allows such activities. Along 

with our implementing regulations in 

the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 

50 CFR 17, the Act provides for permits, 

and requires that we invite public 

comment before issuing these permits. 

A permit granted by us under section 

10(a)(1)(A) of the Act authorizes 

applicants to conduct activities with 

U.S. endangered or threatened species 

for scientific purposes, enhancement of 

survival or propagation, or interstate 

commerce. Our regulations regarding 

implementation of section 10(a)(1)(A) 

permits are found at 50 CFR 17.22 for 

endangered wildlife species, 50 CFR

species.
