SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
1131 of HERA, Division A amended the
Act to add a new section 1337 entitled
‘‘Affordable Housing Allocations’’ and a
new section 1338 entitled ‘‘Housing
Trust Fund.’’ Congress authorized the
Housing Trust Fund (HTF) with the
stated purpose of: (1) Increasing and
preserving the supply of rental housing
for extremely low-income families with
incomes between 0 and 30 percent of
area median income and very lowincome families with incomes between
30 and 50 percent of area median
income, including homeless families,
and (2) increasing homeownership for
extremely low-income and very lowincome families. Section 1337 of the Act
(12 U.S.C. 4567) requires Federal
National Mortgage Association (Fannie
Mae) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation (Freddie Mac) to set-aside
4.2 basis points (.042 percent) of the
unpaid principal of their new mortgage
purchases annually to fund the HTF and
the Capital Magnet Fund. Each year,
65% of the amounts set aside by Fannie
Mae and Freddie Mac are then allocated
to the HTF.
Section 1338 of the Act (12 U.S.C.
4568) directs HUD to establish, through
regulation, the formula for the
distribution of amounts made available
for the HTF. The provisions in section
1338(c)(3) of the Act (12 U.S.C.
4568(c)(3)) specify the factors to be used
for the formula and priority for certain
factors. The HTF implementing
regulations are at 24 CFR part 93. The
factors and methodology HUD uses to
allocate HTF funds among eligible

grantees are established in the HTF
regulation at 24 CFR 93.50, 93.51, and
93.52.
The funding announced for Fiscal
Year 2023 through this notice is
$382,361,726.94. Appendix A to this
notice provides the HTF allocation
amount for each grantee.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
This notice informs the public that
HUD is seeking approval from OMB for
the information collection described in
Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: HUD
CDBG Disaster Recovery Outcomes of
Renter Households and Affordable
Housing.
OMB Approval Number: 2528Pending.
Type of Request: New data collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Office of Policy Development and
Research (PD&R), at the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD), is proposing the
collection of information for the HUDRD
CDBG Disaster Recovery Outcomes of
Renter Households Cooperative
Agreement.
The goal of this research is to improve
disaster recovery effectiveness for renter
households by examining the disaster
recovery outcomes of renter households
and rental housing stock in places that
received Community Development
Block Grant-Disaster Recovery grants
(CDBG–DR). This research is expected
to help the Federal government, states,
and communities throughout the United
States improve disaster recovery
effectiveness for renter households by
providing information about how
disaster recovery programs funded
through CDBG–DR have different
impacts on renters and homeowners,

and how disasters impact affordable
rental housing stock over time. It will
further support HUD in providing data
and information on disaster recovery
outcomes of renter households and
changes in rental housing dynamics in
areas impacted by disasters.
This Federal Register Notice provides
an opportunity to comment on the
information collection for this study
titled HUDRD CDBG Disaster Recovery
Outcomes of Renter Households. The
information collection is designed to
support the study of disaster outcomes
on rental housing, including the impacts
to housing markets and renters; efforts
that have been implemented by federal,
state, and local governments to mitigate
losses to affordable rental housing stock
after disasters; and how CDBG–DR
requirements impact post-disaster
efforts to address rehabilitation,
reconstruction, replacement, and new
construction of rental housing for lowand- moderate income households. The
study includes interviews and focus
groups in three study communities in
jurisdictions that have received CDBG–
DR funding.
Respondents: CDBG–DR grantee
representatives and administrators;
elected and appointed government
officials in CDBG–DR grantee
jurisdictions and municipalities;
representatives from Community
Development Financial Institutions
(CDFI) in CDBG–DR grantee
jurisdictions; representatives from
Public Housing Agencies (PHA) in
CDBG–DR grantee jurisdictions;
landlords and developers in CDBG–DR
grantee jurisdictions; representatives
from housing and tenant advocacy
organizations; and renters living in
CDBG–DR grantee jurisdictions.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
This information collection will affect
approximately 190 respondents. This
includes: (1) up to 20 individual
qualitative interviews in each of three
study communities with CDBG–DR
grantee representatives and
administrators, elected and appointed
officials, CDFI representatives, and PHA

representatives; (2) up to two focus
groups with up to 10 individuals per
focus group with landlords and
developers in each of three study
communities; (3) up to two focus groups
with up to 10 individuals per focus
group with renters in each of three
study communities; (4) and up to 10
qualitative interviews with HUD staff
and other national professionals.
Estimated Time per Response: The
qualitative interviews are expected to
take one hour per interview. The focus
groups are expected to take 1.5 hours
per focus group.
Frequency of Response: One time for
all interviews and focus groups.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 250 hours for all interviews and
focus groups.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$8,335.20 for all qualitative interviews
and focus groups. To arrive at the dollar
cost of the estimated response burden,
we have used estimates from the U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics on average
hourly earnings in January 2023. For
CDBG–DR administrators, HUD staff,
and elected and appointed officials, we
use the overall occupational estimate for
federal, state, and local government
employees ($30.85). For PHA staff and
property owner staff, we use the
estimate for professional and business
services ($39.64). For representatives
from CDFIs, private developers, private
landlords, advocacy organizations,
renters, and other private sector
professionals, we use the estimate for all
private sector employees ($33.03).
Of the up to 60 qualitative interviews
planned in the study communities
described in the Estimated Number of
Respondents section, we assume an
even distribution of subcategory targets;
of the 10 qualitative interviews with
HUD staff and other national
professionals, we assume up to five
from the Federal, state, and local
government BLS category and up to five
from the Private sector employees BLS
category.
