SUMMARY: The proposed information collection requirement described

for review, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act. The Department

    Section 9(f) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 establishes 

an Operating Fund for the purpose of making assistance available to 

public housing agencies (PHAs) which assistance is determined using a 

formula approach under the Operating Fund Program. PHAs compute their 

operating subsidy eligibility by completing the following HUD 

prescribed forms, as applicable, each fiscal year: Calculation of 

Utilities Expense Level (HUD-52722); Operating Fund Calculation of 

Operating Subsidy (HUD-52723); and Calculation of Subsidies for 

Operations: Non-Rental Housing (HUD-53087). HUD uses the information on 

these forms to determine the operating subsidy obligation and proration 

level for each PHA. The three forms listed in this collection are 

automated in the Subsidy and Grant Information System (SAGIS).
