A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Memorandum of Understanding/
Information Security Agreement Signature page.
    OMB Approval Number: Pending.
    Type of Request: New collection.
    Form Number: HUD-22015.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: 
Federal policy requires agencies to develop Interconnection Security 
Agreements (ISAs) for federal information systems and networks that 
share or exchange information with external information systems and 
networks. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has 
developed its Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)/ISA template in 
accordance with practices outlined in Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) Circular A-130, Managing Information as a Strategic Resource, and 
the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special 
Publication (SP) 800-47, Security Guide for Interconnecting Information 
Technology Systems.
    The information collected through this form is part of the MOU/ISA 
process. This process allows for HUD and external entities (people, 
businesses, PHAs, Tribes, etc.) to build and share application-level 
interfaces allowing for the exchange of data. This collection will 
ensure the privacy and security of data exchanged between HUD and an 
external entity as it will allow HUD to monitor and track who has 
access to HUD's data and ensure that any system requiring HUD data is 
internally authorized by HUD's OCIO and HUD's Office of Information 
Technology (IT) Security (OITS).
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 30-50 per application.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 60-100 per year (2 applications per 
year estimate).
    Frequency of Response: One response every 3 years per respondent, 
per application.
    Average Hours per Response: .5 hours.
    Total Estimated Burdens: 30-50 hours per year.

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.
