A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Manufactured Home Construction and 
Safety Standards Act Park Model RV Exemption Notice.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0616.
    OMB Expiration Date: May 31, 2020.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Form Number: None.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: For 
recreational vehicles that are exempt from HUD regulation as 
manufactured homes, HUD requires certification with either the American 
National Standards Institute's (ANSI) standard for Park Model 
Recreational Vehicles (PMRV), A119.5-15 or the National Fire Protection 
Association's NFPA 1192, Standard on Recreational Vehicles, 2015 
Edition. PMRVs built to ANSI A119.5-15 may exceed the RV exemption's 
400 square foot threshold, a manufacturer must post notice in the home 
that the structure is only designed for recreational purposes and is 
not designed as a primary residence or for permanent occupancy.
    The Recreation Vehicle Industry Association's (RVIA) current seal 
does not satisfy HUD's standard for the manufacturer's notice. HUD 
requirements provide specifics regarding the content and prominence of 
the notice and which requires the notice to be prominently displayed in 
the unit and delivered to the consumer before the sale transaction is 
complete, regardless of whether the transaction occurs online or in-
person. PMRV manufacturers will satisfy this requirement with two 
printed sheets of paper per PMRV: One in the kitchen, and one delivered 
to the consumer before the transaction.
    Respondents (i.e., affected public): Business or other for-profit.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 22.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 4,000 per annum.
    Frequency of Response: Approx. 181.
    Average Hours per Response: 20 seconds.
    Total Estimated Burden: 22 hours.

B. Solicitation of Public Comment

    This notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and 
affected parties concerning the collection of information described in 
Section A on the following:
    (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for 
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
    (2) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information;
    (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
    (4) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond; including through the use of appropriate 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.
    HUD encourages interested parties to submit comment in response to 
these questions.
    C. Authority: Section 3507 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 
44 U.S.C. Chapter 35.
