SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department is submitting the proposed

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended).
    This Notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and 
affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of information to: 
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection 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 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: HUD-Owned Real Estate--Good Neighbor Next Door 
Sales Program.
    OMB Control Number, if applicable: 2502-NEW.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: This 
collection was formerly part of a collection titled Single Family 
Housing Property Disposition and Acquisition (Conveyance) of Mortgaged 
Properties. HUD published a Federal Register notice soliciting public 
comments on April 17, 2006 (Vol. 71, No. 73, pages 19746-19746). No 
comments were received. Since that publication, however, the 
information collection request for the Good Neighbor Next Door Sales 
Program has been disaggregated. This revision now presents only 
documents related to the Good Neighbor Next Door Sales Program.
    Agency form numbers, if applicable: HUD-9548-A, HUD-9549, HUD 9549-
A, HUD 9549-B, HUD 9549-C, HUD 9549-D, 9549-E.
    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 burden hours 
needed to prepare the information collection is 1,249 hours; the number 
of respondents is approximately 13,136, generating approximately 20,282 
annual responses; the frequency of response is ``on occasion''; and the 
estimated time needed to prepare the response varies from 2 minutes to 
30 minutes per response.
    Status of the proposed information collection: This is a request 
for a new collection to disaggregate only those information collection 
requirements of the Good Neighbor Next Door Sales Program.

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

    Dated: October 26, 2006.
Frank L. Davis,
General Deputy Assistant Secretary for Housing--Deputy Federal Housing 
Commissioner.
