DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

[Docket No. FR-5683-N-09]


Notice of Proposed Information Collection: Comment Request; 
Multifamily Contractor's Mortgagor's Cost Breakdowns and Certifications

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.
    Contractors use the form HUD-2328 to establish a schedule of values 
of construction items on which the monthly advances or mortgage 
proceeds are based. Contractors use the form HUD-92330-A to convey 
actual construction costs in a standardized format of cost 
certification. In addition to assuring that the mortgage proceeds have 
not been used for purposes other than construction costs, HUD-92330-A 
further protects the interest of the Department by directly monitoring 
the accuracy of the itemized trades on form HUD-2328. This form also 
serves as project data to keep Field Office cost data banks and cost 
estimates current and accurate. HUD-92205A is used to certify the 
actual costs of acquisition or refinancing of projects insured under 
Section 223(f) program.

DATES: Comments Due Date: February 21, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments regarding 
this proposal. Comments should refer to the proposal by name and/or OMB
