communications capabilities. The NECP
Performance Report is designed to meet
these statutory requirements.
OEC will use the information gained
through the reports to track progress
that states are making in implementing
milestones and demonstrating goals of
the NECP. Information regarding
demonstration of the NECP will
measure the ability of counties or
county-equivalents to demonstrate
response-level emergency
communications within one hour for
routine events involving multiple
jurisdictions.
Statewide Interoperability
Coordinators or Statewide
Communications Interoperability
Planning points of contact (police, fire,
emergency medical services, emergency
managers, dispatchers, radio operators,
government workers, etc.) will be
responsible for collecting this
information from their respective
counties or county equivalents within
their states. The report will be
submitted electronically via e-mail.
OMB is particularly interested in
comments that:
1. Evaluate 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. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.

DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND
URBAN DEVELOPMENT
[Docket No. FR–5480–N–04]

Notice of Submission of Proposed
Information Collection to OMB;
American Housing Survey
Office of the Chief Information
Officer, HUD.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The proposed information
collection requirement described below
has been submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act. The Department is
soliciting public comments on the
subject proposal.
The American Housing Survey (AHS)
provides a periodic measure of the size
and composition of the country’s
housing inventory. Title 12, United
States Code, Sections 1701Z–1, 1701Z–
2(g), and 1710Z–10a mandate the
collection of this information.
Like the previous surveys, the 2011
AHS collects data on subjects such as
the amount and types of changes in the
inventory, the physical condition of the
inventory, the characteristics of the
occupants, housing costs, the persons
eligible for and beneficiaries of assisted
housing, and the number and
characteristics of vacancies. The 2011
AHS will collect additional data on
potential health and safety hazards in
the home and modifications made to
assist occupants living with disabilities.
Selected neighborhood and journey to
work questions will not be collected in
the 2011 survey and the mortgage
questions will be redesigned. There is
no AHS–Metropolitan Sample in the
2011 survey. But, a supplemental
sample of housing units will be selected
for 30 metropolitan areas. The
supplemental sample will be combined
with existing sample in these areas in
order to produce metropolitan estimates
using the National data.
Policy analysts, program managers,
budget analysts, and Congressional staff
use AHS data to advise executive and
