A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Manufactured Home Construction and 
Safety Standards Program.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0233.
    OMB Expiration Date: November 30, 2022.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Form Numbers: HUD-101, HUD-203, HUD-203B, HUD-301, HUD-302, HUD-
303, HUD-304.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use:
    This information collection is used in conjunction with 
certification labels, which are 2-inch x 4-inch metal tags permanently 
attached to each section of manufactured homes to provide a unique 
identifying number to each section of home produced under 24 CFR 
Chapter XX Part 3280, the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety 
Standards (Standards). Manufacturers are required to affix labels to 
all manufactured homes to be sold or leased in the United States, to 
certify compliance with the Standards in accordance with 24 CFR 
3280.11, 24 CFR 3282.204, and 24 CFR 3282.205.
    Respondents are both approved Production Inspection Primary 
Inspections Agencies (IPIAs) as described in 24 CFR 3282.362, and 
manufacturers, as defined in 24 CFR 3282.7. HUD issues certification 
labels to IPIAs and those certification labels are re-distributed to 
manufacturers in accordance with the rules. Manufacturers pay the fee 
designated in 24 CFR 3284.5. The information collection is necessary to 
ensure label control, production levels, and provide certification 
label association to allow the Department to identify a manufactured 
home after it leaves the plant and to ensure that the certification 
label fee has been paid. The information will also facilitate any 
recall or safety-related defect campaigns and provide the data that is 
needed to pay required fees or credits for program participants in the 
various states where such homes are manufactured and located.
    HUD has updated the number of respondents based on current industry 
characteristics. The number of manufacturing plants has increased and 
the number of burden hours per response on the HUD-302 Monthly 
Production Report has been increased to one hour. Form HUD-203B has 
been revised to include a field for ``Explanation of Damage/Repair.'' 
The forms have also been updated to include more precise burden 
statements.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit; State, Local or Tribal 
Government.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 151.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 5,153.
    Frequency of Response: Monthly.
    Average Hours per Response: 1.0 burden hour for HUD-302; 0.5 burden 
hours for all other forms included with this information collection.
    Total Estimated Burden: 3,410 hours.
