I have determined that the damage in
certain areas of the State of Arkansas
resulting from severe storms, tornadoes,
straight-line winds, and flooding during the
period of March 8–13, 2016, is of sufficient
severity and magnitude to warrant a major
disaster declaration under the Robert T.

‘‘Stafford Act’’). Therefore, I declare that such
a major disaster exists in the State of
Arkansas.
In order to provide Federal assistance, you
are hereby authorized to allocate from funds
available for these purposes such amounts as
you find necessary for Federal disaster
assistance and administrative expenses.
You are authorized to provide Public

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in

The Federal Register notice that
solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on March 29, 2016
at 81 FR 17487.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Public
Housing Reform Act: Changes to
Admission and Occupancy
Requirements.
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0230.
Type of Request: Revision of currently
approved collection.
Form Number: None.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
purpose of this information collection
submission is to implement the
requirement that public housing
agencies have available upon request,
their respective admission and
occupancy policies for both the public
and the Department of Housing and
Urban Development. Public Housing
Authorities must have on hand and
available for inspection policies related
to admission and continued occupancy,
so as to respond to inquiries from
tenants, legal-aid services, HUD, and
other interested parties informally or
through the Freedom of Information
Act. Written documentation of policies
relating to Public Housing and Section
8 Assistance Programs implemented
under the Quality Housing and Work
Responsibility Act of 1998, such as
eligibility for admission and continued
occupancy, local preferences, and rent
determination, must be maintained and
made available by Public Housing
Authorities.
The collection of information
implements changes to the admission
and occupancy Requirements for the
Public Housing and Section 8 Assisted
Housing Programs made by the Quality
Housing and Work Responsibility
(QHWRA) Act 1998, (Title V of the FY
1999 HUD appropriations Act, Public
Law 105–276, 112 Stat. 2518, approved
October 21, 1998), which amended the
United States Housing Act of 1937.
QHWRA made comprehensive changes
to HUD’s Public Housing Section 8
Programs. Some of the changes made by
the 1998 Act (i.e., QHWRA) affect public
housing only and others affect the
Section 8 and Public Housing Programs.
