Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 243 / Thursday, December 17, 2020 / Notices
This
notice informs the public that HUD has
submitted to OMB a request for
approval of the information collection
described in Section A. The Federal
Register notice that solicited public
comment on the information collection
for a period of 60 days was published
on September 23, 2020 at 85 FR 59816.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Emergency Waivers Reporting.
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0292.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Form Numbers: HUD–5883, HUD–
5884, HUD–5885.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
purpose of this notice is to solicit public
comment on the proposed Emergency
Waivers Reporting.
In response to the national COVID–19
emergency, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief,
and Economic Security Act (CARES

Act) was enacted on March 27, 2020.
The Act gives the Department the ability
to waive regulatory and statutory
provisions that apply to Public Housing
Agencies (PHAs). Specifically, the
CARES Act allows the Secretary of HUD
to ‘‘waive, or specify alternative
requirements for, any provision of any
statute or regulation (except for
requirements related to fair housing,
nondiscrimination, labor standards, and
the environment) . . . . upon a finding
by the Secretary that any such waivers
or alternative requirements are
necessary for the safe and effective
administration of these funds . . . to
prevent, prepare for, and respond to
coronavirus.’’
HUD issued a notice detailing the
waivers available in response to the
COVID–19 crisis, posted on April 10,
2020, as PIH Notice 2020–05. This
notice states: PHAs are required to keep
written documentation that record
which waivers the PHA applied to their
programs(s) and the effective dates.

In response to presidentially declared
Major Disaster Declarations (MDDs),
FR–6050–N–04 is: Relief from HUD
Public Housing and Section 8
Requirements Available During CY2020
and CY2021 to Public Housing Agencies
to Assist with Recovery and Relief
Efforts. This notice lists the specific
waivers and relief options available for
use by PHAs.
No respondent is mandated to use a
waiver but use of the waivers is
encouraged by HUD in response to
specific emergencies to reduce burdens
and administrative requirements. The
notice announcing the availability of
waivers becomes the checklist which
respondents use to note responses as to
which waivers they elected to use and
their start date.
