Notice of Submission of Proposed Information Collection to OMB; 
Builder's Certification of Plans, Specifications, and Site

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.
    This is a revision of a current collection and reflects recent 
statutory and policy changes but does not increase the paperwork burden 
previously approved. HUD requires the builder to complete the 
certification (form HUD-92541) noting adverse site/location factor(s) 
of the property, including Floodplains. This certification is necessary 
so that HUD does not

the occupant.
