# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Department will submit 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 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.

This Notice also lists the following information:

*Title of Proposal:*                     Requirements for Designating Housing Projects.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     2577-0192.                

*Description of the need for the information and proposed use:*                     The information collection burden associated with designated housing is required by statute. Section 10 of the Housing Opportunity and Extension Act of 1996 modified Section 7 of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937 to require Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) to submit to HUD a plan for designation before they designate projects for elderly families only, non-elderly disabled families only, or elderly and disabled families. In this plan, PHAs must document why the designation is needed, information on the proposed designation and the total PHA inventory, and what additional housing resources will be available to the non-designated group.                

*Agency form number:*                     None.                

*Members of affected public:*                     State or Local government.                

*Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the information collection including number of respondents:*                     60 respondents; one response per respondent annually; 15 hours average per response, 900 total reporting burden hours per year.                

*Status of the proposed information collection:*                     Extension of a previously approved collection.
