    Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use: 
Certain Federal statutes and regulations require the Department to 
review rents and/or charges for all projects either insured or held by 
HUD, except for specified unsubsidized projects. These regulations also 
require the Department's approval of all principals in HUD insured and 
financed projects. HUD form 92458 serves both of these purposes by 
documenting rents and charges that the Department approves and by 
requiring owners to provide a current listing of their projects' 
principals.
    Agency Form Numbers: HUD 92458.
    Members of Affected Public: Non-Profit Institutions, Business or 
other for profit, Federal agencies or employees.
    An estimation of the total numbers of hours needed to prepare the 
information collection is 22,642, the number of respondents is 3,126, 
frequency of response is 1, and the hours of response is 7,243.
    Status of the Proposed Information Collection: Extension without 
change in the substance or in the method of collection.

    Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 
44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended.

    Dated: July 30, 1996.
Nicolas P. Retsinas,
Assistant Secretary for Housing, Federal Housing Commissioner.
