SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice informs the public that HUD is 

seeking approval from OMB for the 

information collection described in 

section A. 

The Federal Register notice that 

solicited public comment on the 

information collection for a period of 60 

days was published on July 14, 2017 at 

FR 32572. 

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Quality Control Requirements for Direct 

Endorsement Lenders. 

OMB Approval Number: 2502–0600. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Form Number: None. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: Under 

24 CFR 202.8(3), Direct Endorsement 

(DE) lenders which sponsor third-party 

originators (TPOs) are responsible to the 

Secretary for the actions of TPOs or 

mortgagees in originating loans or 

mortgages, unless applicable law or 

regulation requires specific knowledge 

on the part of the party to be held 

responsible. As a result, DE lenders are 

responsible for conducting quality 

control on TPO originations of FHAinsured mortgage loans, and ensuring 

that their quality control plans contain 

appropriate oversight provisions. This 

creates an information collection burden 

on DE lenders, since these institutions 

must conduct quality control on all 

loans they originate and underwrite. 

In addition, under 24 CFR 203.255(c) 

and (e), HUD conducts both pre- and 

post-endorsement reviews of loans 

submitted for FHA insurance by DE 

lenders. As part of those reviews, the 

Secretary is authorized to determine if 

there is any information indicating that 

any certification or required document 

is false, misleading, or constitutes fraud 

or misrepresentation on the part of any 

party, or that the mortgage fails to meet 

a statutory or regulatory requirement. In 

order to assist the Secretary with this 

directive, FHA requires that lenders 

self-report all findings of fraud and 

material misrepresentation, as well any 

material findings concerning the 

origination, underwriting, or servicing 

of the loan that the lender is unable to 

mitigate or otherwise resolve. The 

obligation to self-report these findings 

creates an additional information 

collection burden on DE lenders. 

In accordance with the requirements 

of 5 CFR 1320.8(d), a Notice soliciting

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 186 / Wednesday, September 27, 2017 / Notices 45043 

comments on this collection of 

information was initially published in 

the Federal Register on December 21, 

2010 (Volume 75, Number 244, page 

80066). At that time, FHA still allowed 

for loan correspondents to participate in 

its programs and had not yet 

transitioned to the use of TPOs. 

Therefore, FHA estimated information 

collection burdens based on the 

expected used of TPOs by DE lenders. 

Three years later, FHA has revised these 

estimates with real data, which has 

substantially reduced the information 

collection burden associated with OMB 

Control Number 2502–0600. 

Respondents (i.e., affected public): 

Business or other for-profit. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1,831. 

Estimated Number of Responses: 

135,682. 

Frequency of Response: Annually. 

Average Hours per Response: .52. 

Total Estimated Burdens: 71,017.

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Manufactured Home Construction and 

Safety Standards Act Reporting 

Requirements. 

OMB Approval Number: 2502–0253. 

Type of Request: Revision. 

Form Number: None. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: The 

Federal Standards and Procedural 

Regulations require manufactured home 

producers to place labels and notices in 

and on manufactured homes and 

mandate State and Private agencies 

participating in the Federal program to 

issue reports. Under revisions to the 

current reporting requirements and 

regulations, a streamlined procedure 

was added that will allow 

manufacturers, under certain 

circumstances, to complete construction 

of their homes on-site rather than in the 

factory without first having to obtain 

advance approval from HUD. 

In addition, some information 

collected assists both HUD and State 

Agencies in locating manufactured 

homes with defects, which then would 

create the need for notification and/or 

correction by the manufacturer. 

Respondents (i.e., affected public): 

Business or other for-profit. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

182. 

Estimated Number of Responses: 

105,479. 

Frequency of Response: Monthly. 

Average Hours per Response: 1.5. 

Total Estimated Burdens: 147,515.
