A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Single Family Mortgage Insurance 
on Hawaiian Home Lands.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0358.
    Type of Request: Extension.
    Form Number: None.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use:
    FHA insures mortgages on single-family dwellings under provisions 
of the National Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1709). The Housing and Urban 
Rural Recovery Act (HURRA), Public Law 98-181, amended the National 
Housing Act to add section 247 (12 U.S.C. 1715z-12) to permit FHA to 
insure mortgages for properties located on Hawaiian Home Lands.
    Section 247 requires that the Department of Hawaiian Homelands 
(DHHL) of the State of Hawaii (a) be a co-mortgagor; (b) guarantees, or 
reimburses the Secretary for any mortgage insurance claim paid in 
connection with a property located on Hawaiian Home Lands; or (c) 
offers other security acceptable to the Secretary. There are no changes 
to the program for this submission. Under the State of Hawaii, the DHHL 
is responsible for management of Hawaiian Home Lands for the benefit of 
native Hawaiians. The DHHL determines that the mortgagor meets its 
eligibility requirement as a native Hawaiian.
    Respondents: Business of other for-profit (FHA-approved lenders).
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 23.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 233.
    Frequency of Response: As needed.
    Average Hours per Response: 0.583.
    Total Estimated Burdens: $2,682.75.

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

    (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the

    (4) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond; including through the use of appropriate
