for emergency processing, a proposed information collection requirement 
as described below. This Notice is soliciting comments from members of 
the public and affecting 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: Grant Application for Housing for People who are 
Homeless and Addicted to Alcohol.
    Description of Information Collection: This is an application for a 
program that will provide supporting housing assistance to chronically 
homeless persons who have been living on the streets for at least three 
hundred sixty-five (365) days over the last five (5) years and have a 
long-term addiction to alcohol. The information to be collected 
includes project information, program component and type, number of 
beds and participants, leasing information and the subpopulations to be 
assisted. We need to collect this information so that we fully 
understand the scope of the project and so that the applicant would be 
eligible to apply for renewal funds through the Continuum of Care 
process once the grant term expires.
    OMB Control Number: To be assigned.
    Agency Form Numbers: HUD-40112. Plus standard grant application 
forms SF 424, HUD-2991, SF-424-SUPP, HUD 27300, HUD-96011, HUD-96010, 
OMB-SF-LLL, SF-424A.
    Members of Affected Public: States, local government, other 
government agencies, and public and private nonprofit agencies.
    Estimation of the total numbers of hours needed to prepare the 
information collection: No more than 100 applicants are expected to 
respond to this NOFA, and this will be a one-time collection effort. 
Program staff determines that it will take approximately ten (10) hours 
to complete this form.
    Status: Proposed new collection.

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

    Dated: March 4, 2005.
Nelson Breg[oacute]n,
General Deputy Assistant Secretary, Community Planning and Development.
