Description of the need for the information and proposed use: Each
year Congress appropriates funds to approximately 3,015 Public Housing
Authorities (PHAs) for modernization, development, financing, and
management improvements. The funds are allocated based on a complex
formula. The forms in this collection are used to appropriately
disburse and utilize the funds provided to PHAs. Additionally, these
forms provide the information necessary to approve a financing
transaction in addition to any Capital Fund Financing transactions.
Respondents include the approximately 3,015 PHA receiving Capital Funds
and any other PHAs wishing to pursue financing.
This proposed information collection has been revised to include
the following changes below:
1. HUD has removed all of the hours for the annual submission of
form HUD-50075.2 and reduced the hours for HUD-50075.1. HUD is now
collecting that information electronically thru the Energy Performance
Information Center (EPIC) system. These hours were transferred to OMB
No. 2577-0274 Energy Performance Information Center (EPIC). HUD will
continue to use the HUD-50075.1 for the Capital Fund set aside grant
programs, Lead Based Paint, Emergency Safety and Security, and
Emergency and Disaster. Only those hours remain in 2577-0157.1. As a
result, the burden hours were decreased 9,260 hours
2. Due to conversion of Public Housing to the Section 8 thru the
Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Program, the number of PHAs
receiving Capital Funds has been reduced from 3,100 to 3,015. This has
reduced the number of hours by 3,774.
3. The total reduction in in burden hours are 13,034.
