receive CDBG funding to submit a Performance Assessment information 
Report (PAR) on an annual basis to report on program progress; and such 
records as may be necessary to facilitate review and audit by HUD of 
the state's administration of CDBG funds (section 104(e)(2)).
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities--Grant 
recipients participating in the State-administered CDBG program.
    Frequency of Submission: Annually.
