DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

[Docket No. FR-5281-N-05]


Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards Act Reporting 
Requirements

AGENCY: Office of the Chief Information Officer, HUD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The proposed information collection requirement described 
below has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
for review, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act. The Department 
is soliciting public comments on the subject proposal.
    The Federal Standards and Procedural Regulations require 
manufactured home producers to place labels and notices in and on 
manufactured homes and mandate State and Private agencies participating 
in the Federal program to issue reports. These Standards will protect 
the HUD's interests by requiring certain features of design and 
construction. In addition, some information collected assists both HUD 
and State Agencies in locating manufactured homes with defects, which 
then would create the need for notification and/or correction by the 
manufacturer.

DATES: Comments Due Date: February 25, 2009.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments regarding 
this proposal. Comments should refer to the proposal by name and/or OMB 
approval Number (2502-0253) and should be sent to: HUD Desk Officer, 
Office of Management and Budget, New Executive Office Building, 
Washington, DC 20503; fax: 202-395-6974.
