compensation paid to the top
management official, the top financial
official, and all employees who are paid
an annual salary over the compensation
cap imposed by Congress in HUD’s
annual appropriations (Level IV of the
Executive Schedule). This reporting is
similar to the information that nonprofit organizations receiving federal tax
exemptions are required to report to the
IRS annually. Because PHAs receive
significant direct federal funds HUD has
been collecting compensation
information to enhance regulatory
oversight by HUD, as well as by state
and local authorities. HUD provides the
information collected to the public. The
compensation data collected includes
base salary, bonus, and incentive and
other compensation, and the extent to
which these payments are made with
any Section 8 and 9 appropriated funds.
Respondents: Public Housing
Agencies.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
Approximately 4,000.
Estimated Number of Responses:
Approximately 4,000.
Frequency of Response: Annual.
Average Hours per Response: 30
minutes.
Total Estimated Burdens: The total
burden hours is estimated to be 2,000
hours annually. The total burden cost is
estimated to be $46,280.
