HUD-2328; Contractor's Certificate of Actual Cost, HUD-92330-A.
    OMB Control Number, if applicable: 2502-0044.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: Form 
HUD-2328 serves to facilitate the advances of mortgage proceeds and 
their monitoring. This form is used by the contractor to establish a 
schedule of values of construction items on which the monthly advances

contractor to convey its actual construction costs in a standardized 
format for cost certification. It uses the Uniform System of Cost 
Accounting to classify construction trade items, and its accounting 
classifications are identical to those in the Contractor's and/or 
Mortgagor's cost Breakdown, HUD-2328.
    Agency form numbers, if applicable: HUD-2328, HUD-92330-A.
    Estimation of the total numbers of hours needed to prepare the 
information collection including number of respondents, frequency of 
response, and hours of response: The estimated number of respondents 
are 850, frequency of responses is 1, and the hours of response is 
estimated to be 8 hours per response for the HUD-2328 and 16 for the 
HUD-92330-A, totaling 9,600 hours.
    Status of the proposed information collection: Reinstatement 
without change.

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