adjustments for increased costs due to

expiration of real property tax

exemption. Section 8(c)(2)(B) of the

United States Housing Act allows

HUD to make special rent adjustments

for ‘‘similar costs,’’ other than those

enumerated, to the extent HUD

determines such adjustments are

necessary to reflect increase expenses

of owning and maintaining the units.

Notice of Submission of Proposed

Information Collection to OMB

Proposal: Information Collection

Associated with the ‘‘Impact of Disaster

on Low-Income Rental Housing: Lessons

from the Northridge Earthquake’’.

Office: Office of Police Development

and Research

Description of the need for proposed

information and its proposed use: On

January 17, 1994, a severe earthquake

struck the Los Angeles metropolitan

area, causing considerable damage to

area housing. Reconstruction presented

a major challenge for local, state and

federal housing officials, especially

reconstruction of low-income rental

housing, a segment of the market

particularly vulnerable to loss. The

study will provide systematic

information about the impact of the

Northridge earthquake on low-income

rental housing. Four data collection

instruments will be used: (1) the

Property-Owner Survey will be used to

address a number issue, including the

extent of earthquake damage, the

physical and financial characteristics of

damaged properties, owner

reconstruction plans and financing, and

recommended improvements to public

assistance programs; (2) the Sample

Monitoring Survey will explore major

changes in reconstruction plans stated

during the initial data collection effort;

(3) the Follow-up Surveys will

determine progress of reconstruction

efforts, and identify major changes in

stated reconstruction plans; and (4) the

case study interview guide will detail

the resources being used for

reconstruction and problems being

encountered by owners as well as

detailed characteristics of the projects

before and after the quake.

Earthquake
