Notice of Submission of Proposed 

Information Collection to OMB; 

Emergency Comment Request; Indian 

Housing Block Grant (IHBG) Program 

(Combined and Simplified Indian 

Housing Plan and Annual Performance 

Reporting Requirements) 

AGENCY: Office of the Chief Information 

Officer. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed information 

collection. 

SUMMARY: The proposed information 

collection requirement described below 

has been submitted to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

emergency review and approval, as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act. The Department is soliciting public 

comments on the subject proposal, to 

assure better understanding of the 

reporting requirements and consistency 

in the submission of data. 

DATES: June 4, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are 

invited to submit comments regarding 

this proposal. Comments must be 

received within seven (14) days from 

the date of this Notice. Comments 

should refer to the proposal by name/or 

OMB approval number and should be 

sent to: HUD Desk Officer, Office of 

Management and Budget, New 

Executive Office Building, Washington, 

DC 20503; e-mail: OIRA_Submission 

@omb.eop.gov; fax: (202) 395–5806. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Leroy McKinney, Jr., Departmental 

Reports Management Officer, QDAM, 

Department of Housing and Urban 

Development, 451 7th Street, SW., 

Room 4178, Washington, DC 20410– 

5000; telephone 202–402–8048, (this is 

not a toll-free number) or e-mail Mr. 

McKinney at 

Leroy.McKinneyJr@hud.gov for a copy of 

the proposed forms, or other available 

information. Copies of available 

documents submitted to OMB may be 

obtained from Mr. McKinney. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

Notice informs the public that the U.S. 

Department of Housing and Urban 

Development (HUD) has submitted to 

OMB, for emergency processing, a 

proposed information collection that 

combines and simplifies reporting for 

the Indian Housing Plan and Annual 

Performance Report and reduces the 

estimated annual burden hours for 

preparing the combined report. 

Recipients of IHBG funds are required 

to submit an annual Indian Housing 

Plan (IHP) (HUD–52735) that provides a 

series of goals and objectives for the 

recipient to accomplish with the IHBG 

funds to provide affordable housing for 

its low- to moderate-income tribal 

members (Native American Housing 

Assistance and Self-Determination Act 

(NAHASDA), § 102). 

At the end of each 1-year period the 

recipient is to submit an Annual 

Performance Report (APR) (HUD– 

52735–AS) to (1) Describe the use of 

grant funds; (2) compare relationship of 

grant fund use to the IHP goals and 

objectives; (3) discuss program 

accomplishments; and (4) describe how 

the recipient would change its program 

delivery and implementation based 

upon the recipient’s experience 

(NAHASDA § 404). 

IHBG recipients (tribes and tribally 

designated housing entities) are 

required to submit information annually 

to demonstrate compliance with 

eligibility and other requirements of 

NAHASDA and for HUD’s annual report 

to Congress. The information collected 

enables HUD to maintain its databases 

in order to monitor a recipient’s 

performance and determine program 

compliance. 

The proposal to create a combined 

IHP/APR reporting form is necessary for 

improving the quality of reported data 

and reducing the burden hours to 

complete the forms. HUD anticipates 

that the simplification of the IHP will 

reduce the average estimated hours to 

complete the IHP section of the IHP/ 

APR. The simplification of the APR and 

combining it with the IHP enables 

recipients to avoid unnecessary data 

entry while eliminating the need to
