15. This is a revision of a
previously approved collection implementing requirements under the
Operating Fund Program rule. Revisions have been made to the 83i
and throughout the Supporting Statement to reflect the following:
(1) Beginning in fiscal year 2011, the appeal of formula income for
economic hardship (24 CFR § 990.245(b)) was no longer applicable
due to the expiration of the frozen formula income provision (§
990.195); (2) The expiration in fiscal year 2011 of the 5 year
period under § 990.230 of the regulation during which PHA's could
apply to stop the reduction of their subsidy losses. With the
expiration of the stop loss provisions, the title of this PRA has
been changed from Public Housing Operating Subsidy Stop-Loss and
Appeals to Public Housing Operating Subsidy Appeals; and. (3) The
annualized burden hours and costs associated with appeals based on
the number of appeals received over the past 3 years.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
