A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: The
Community Choice Demonstration.
OMB Approval Number: 2528–0337.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) has contracted with
Abt Associates to conduct an evaluation
of its Community Choice Demonstration
(formerly Housing Choice Voucher
Mobility Demonstration). This proposed
information collection involves three
instruments that will be administered to
subsets of households participating in
the Demonstration: a Home Assessment,
a Child Assessment, and an Obesity and
Type II Diabetes Risk Assessment.1 The
Home Assessment will assess how
moving to an opportunity area affects
exposure to pest allergens and indoor
pollutants that may impact health
conditions among low-income children.
The Child Assessment will assess how
moving to an opportunity area may
affect children’s conduct problems and
physical and mental health. The Obesity
and Type II Diabetes Risk Assessment
will assess how moving to an
opportunity area affects the risk of
obesity and type II diabetes (primarily
for the head of household and
secondarily for one child in each
household).
The Home and Child Assessments are
funded by HUD and being conducted by
Abt Associates. HUD’s contract with Abt
1 As discussed below, the Obesity and Type II
Diabetes Risk Assessment is also known as the
Mobility Opportunity Vouchers for Eliminating
Disparities (MOVED) study.

Associates provides flexibility to
explore collaborations with other
researchers and funders to support
additional knowledge-building efforts
that build on the foundation laid by the
Demonstration so long as they advance
important research objectives, do not
interfere with the core Demonstration,
and are structured in a way that
minimizes overall respondent burden.
The Obesity and Type II Diabetes Risk
Assessment represents one such
collaboration; it is funded by the
National Institute of Diabetes and
Digestive and Kidney Diseases
(NIDDK) 2 and led by Johns Hopkins
University (JHU) as part of a study
called the Mobility Opportunity
Vouchers for Eliminating Disparities
(MOVED) study. The data collection for
the MOVED study will also be
conducted by Abt. While NIH-funded
studies do not normally require the
submission of an information collection
request for compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act, we are
including the Obesity and Type II
Diabetes Risk Assessment as part of this
information collection request because
it will be administered to a subset of
households participating in the HUDfunded Demonstration. In addition, the
Child Assessment will be administered
during the same visit, to the same
households, and by the same
interviewers as the Obesity and Type II
Diabetes Risk Assessment.
Background on Housing Choice Voucher
Mobility Demonstration
The Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2019 (Pub. L. 116–6) and the Further
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020
(Pub. L. 116–94) authorized the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) to implement and
evaluate the Housing Choice Voucher
(HCV) Mobility Demonstration (now
referred to as the Community Choice
Demonstration or CCD or
‘‘Demonstration’’). The primary purpose
of the Demonstration is to provide
voucher assistance and mobility-related
services to families with children to
encourage families to move to lowerpoverty areas and expand their access to
opportunity areas. The Demonstration
will be evaluated using a mix of
methods, including a random
assignment impact study, a process
study, and a cost analysis. The
Demonstration has two phases: In Phase
1, currently underway, enrolled families
are being assigned to two groups: one
group that is offered Comprehensive
Mobility Related Services (CMRS), and
a control group that is offered usual

PHA services. In Phase 2, scheduled to
begin in the fall of 2024, a second
treatment group will be added that runs
concurrently with the CMRS and
control groups, in which families will
be offered selected mobility-related
services (SMRS). (In Phase 2, families
will be randomly assigned to one of
three groups: CMRS, SMRS, or the
control group.) Phase 1 of the study is
evaluating whether the offer of CMRS
helps families with children access and
remain in opportunity areas and
exploring which services appear to be
most effective and cost-effective. Phase
2 will evaluate the effectiveness of
SMRS and compare the outcomes of
CMRS and SMRS. For more information

demonstration program, see HUD’s

On May 31, 2022 and June 9, 2022,
OMB approved the administration of a
series of data collection instruments as
part of the Demonstration; OMB
approved non-substantive changes to
this information collection in October
2022. The OMB Control # is 2528–0337
and expires June 30, 2025. OMB

Revised Information Collection Request
Through this revised information
collection request, we are seeking
approval for three new assessments: a
Home Assessment, a Child Assessment,
and an Obesity and Type II Diabetes
Risk Assessment. The collection of
information through these three
assessments, and through the
underlying Demonstration, will be
closely coordinated to minimize burden
on families and ensure there is no
duplication in data collection across
each of the assessments and between the
assessments and the Demonstration.
We seek approval for two rounds of
data collection (baseline and follow-up
assessments) for each of these three
assessments, which are described in
more detail below.
Home Assessment
The Home Assessment will be
administered at two of the eight
Demonstration sites and include the
heads of household of an estimated 570
households. Households selected to
participate in the Home Assessment will
be contacted shortly after random
assignment in the Demonstration for a

baseline Home Assessment that will
include three components: direct
measurements of pest allergens and
indoor air quality, a brief survey, and
observations noted by the interviewer.
The same data collection will be
repeated approximately 12 months later.
The direct assessment will measure
(1) temperature and relative humidity,
(2) carbon dioxide, (3) carbon
monoxide, (4) mouse and cockroach
allergens, (5) particulate matter, and (6)
volatile organic compounds (chemicals
that enter the air from paints, cleaners,
etc.). The brief survey will obtain
information from the parent or guardian
on risk factors for asthma and other
respiratory conditions and child health
conditions, such as exposure to cigarette
smoke through smokers in the
household or building. The interviewer
observations will focus on risk factors
for asthma and respiratory conditions
and housing and neighborhood quality.
Child Assessment
The Child Assessment will be
conducted at three Demonstration sites
that are different from those of the
Home Assessment to minimize the
reporting burden on participating
families. The Child Assessment will be
administered to one child and to the
parent or guardian of that child in each
of an estimated 837 households who
have a child between ages 2 and 15. The
study team will conduct in-person visits
over a 3.5-year data collection period, at
two points in time: at baseline and at a
2-year follow up. The Child Assessment
will involve a survey about a
prespecified focal child and a direct
assessment of that child’s executive
functioning. Most of the questions on
the survey will be asked of the parent
or guardian, with some questions being
asked directly of children.
Obesity and Type II Diabetes Risk
Assessment
The Obesity and Type II Diabetes Risk
Assessment will be administered to the
same households that are participating
in the Child Assessment during the
same visit. The Obesity and Type II
Diabetes Risk Assessment will also be
administered to some households that
do not have a child in the age range
specified for the Child Assessment and
to some families that decline to
participate in the Child Assessment. As
with the Child Assessment, the data
collection will focus on one child in
each household along with the parent or
guardian of that child. The Obesity and
Type II Diabetes Risk Assessment,
which is expected to be administered to
a total of 900 households, includes:
• an adult survey

PO 00000

Frm 00069

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

• anthropometric assessments (height,
weight, and waist circumference) of
the adult and one focal child
• blood spot samples to test HbA1c
levels (a measure of diabetes risk) of
the adult
• blood pressure readings
• observations noted by the interviewer,
and
• accelerometer data on a sub-set of 400
adults and 400 children.
At the 2-year follow-up visit, the
study team will conduct a follow-up
Obesity and Type II Diabetes Risk
Assessment that will include the same
components with all households that
can be located and agree to participate.
In addition, semi-structured interviews
will be conducted with a subset of 75
households. The interviews will dive
deeper into the factors explored in the
survey that are potentially associated
with obesity and Type II diabetes risk in
order to better understand the
mechanisms which impact health and
well-being.
Hourly Cost per Response: The
estimated total annual burden of this
information collection is 279,892.89
hours. The estimated total annual cost
for this information collection is
$1,588,630.99. The estimated total
annual cost is calculated by multiplying
the total number of respondent hours for
adults by $11.05. The hourly rate of
$11.05 was calculated using the average
hourly minimum wage rate for
households in the Housing Choice
voucher program living in the 8 study
sites.3 Annualized cost estimates were
not calculated for the child sample. The
child sample eligible to participate in
the study will be under the age of 18.
Most, if not all, will be enrolled in
school and working part-time at the
most. Thus, we did not calculate an
hourly wage for the child sample.
Respondents: Selected adults and
children who have enrolled in the
Demonstration and are either (1) offered
comprehensive mobility-related services
along with their voucher or (2) offered
standard PHA services along with their
voucher.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
The baseline and follow-up assessments
for the Home, Child, and the Obesity
and Type II Diabetes Risk Assessments
will be completed for an estimated
2,370 respondents. This consists of 570
heads of household participating in the
Home Assessment and 900 parents or
guardians and 900 children
3 Hourly minimum wage rates were averaged
across the eight study sites, which include Los
Angeles, Louisiana, Minnesota, New York City,
New York State, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and
Tennessee.

participating in the Obesity and Type II
Diabetes Risk Assessment. We estimate
that the Child Assessment will be
administered to 837 households that
also participate in the Obesity and Type
II Diabetes Risk Assessment, so they are
already included in the estimated
number of respondents above.
Frequency of Response: Twice
(baseline and follow-up).
Average Hours per Response:
• The Home Assessment includes an
advance letter (5 minutes or .08 hours),
an email (1 minute or .02 hours), and a
follow-up call from the research team (8
minutes or .13 hours). It also includes
the consent (10 minutes or .17 hours),
direct measurement (30 minutes or .5
hours), interviewer observations (10
minutes or .17 hours) and a brief survey
(15 minutes or .25 hours) representing a
total respondent burden of 1.32 hours.
The burden table reflects the evaluation
contractor’s estimate that it may need to
conduct initial outreach, via emails,
letters, and phone calls, to up to 814
families in order to recruit 570 families
to participate in the Home Assessment.
• The Child Assessment includes the
consent (8 minutes or .13 hours), survey
about child (asked of parent/guardian)
and parent/guardian’s presence during
direct child assessment (a total of 45
minutes or .75 hours), and the direct
child assessment (22 minutes or .37

mailing it back to the study team. We
have also included the full burden of
participants wearing the accelerometer
for 7 days for a total burden of 169
hours per participant in the
accelerometer sub-group. We expect the
blood pressure reading to take 15
minutes or .25 hours. For the sub-set of
75 adults that are interviewed as part of
the semi-structured interviews, consent
is expected to take 10 minutes (or .17
hours) and the interviews are expected
to take 60–90 minutes, or 1–1.5 hours.
Finally, we have included quarterly
tracking emails/texts or calls between
the baseline survey and the follow-up
survey that remind participants to
confirm or update their name, address,
phone, and email. The tracking also
allows them to provide the name,
address and phone number of someone
who will always know how to reach
them. We estimate the burden to be 8
minutes or .13 hours for tracking
emails/texts and 10 minutes or .17
hours for tracking calls. The burden
table reflects the evaluation contractor’s
estimate that it may need to conduct
initial outreach, via emails, letters, and
phone calls, to up to 1,285 families in
order to recruit 900 families to
participate in the Obesity and Type II
Diabetes Risk Assessment.
Respondents: Public.

hours for the child). This represents a
total respondent burden of 75 minutes
or 1.25 hours. Consent for the Child
Assessment and the Obesity and Type II
Diabetes Risk Assessment will be
obtained at the same time, through the
same instrument; we have apportioned
the total time estimate for the combined
instrument across the two assessments.
The Obesity and Type II Diabetes Risk
Assessment includes an advance letter
(5 minutes or .08 hours), an email (1
minute or .02 hours), and a follow-up
call from the research team (8 minutes
or .13 hours). It also includes the
consent and enrollment (15 minutes or
.25 hours); adult survey (60 minutes or
1 hour); anthropometric assessments for
adults (10 minutes or 0.17 hours) and
children (10 minutes or 0.17 hours and
10 minutes or .17 hours for the parent
or guardian who must also be present);
and blood spot sample of the adult (10
minutes or 0.17 hours). The Home
observations/housing assessment of the
home will take 15 minutes (.25 hours).
For the subset of 400 adults and 400
children selected to wear an
accelerometer, we estimate a total of 1
hour to put on and return the
accelerometer. Returning the
accelerometer will involve the
participant placing the device in the
self-addressed, postpaid return envelope
that the interviewer provided and

We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service),
announce the availability of a draft
general conservation plan (GCP) and the
associated draft categorical exclusion
(CatEx), for development activities in
Santa Cruz County. The draft GCP was
developed by the Service in accordance
with section 10(a)(2)(A) of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (Act; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
The GCP meets the issuance criteria as
required by section 10(a)(2)(B) of the
Act for issuance of a section 10(a)(1)(B)
incidental take permit (ITP). The
Service developed the GCP to provide a
streamlined mechanism for proponents
engaged in activities associated with the
construction and maintenance of
residential dwellings and associated
infrastructure, construction, and
maintenance on public lands, such as
roads, drainages, and parks, and habitat
restoration, to meet statutory and
regulatory requirements while
promoting conservation of the California
red-legged frog (Rana draytonii),
California tiger salamander (Ambystoma
californiense), and Santa Cruz long-toed
salamander (Ambystoma
macrodactylum croceum). Permits
issued under the GCP would authorize
incidental take of the covered species
for up to 5 years after each respective
permit is issued. The GCP would
authorize incidental take of the covered
species, via permanent habitat loss,
within 90 acres (ac) of the approximate
14,314-ac plan area in southern Santa
Cruz County. The Service prepared the
draft CatEx in accordance with the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) to
evaluate the potential effects to the
natural and human environment
resulting from issuing permits under the
GCP. We invite comment on the GCP
