HUD IS CLEARED
TO COLLECT THE EXISTING INFORMATION COLLECTION REQUIREMENTS
CONTAINED IN THEIR CURRENT RULES THROUGH OCTOBER 1986. ON THE
PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE RULE, THE INFORMATION COLLECTION
REQUIREMENTS CONTAINED IN SECTIONS 24 CFR 905.204 (F) (3) AND (G)
ARE APPROVED. THESE REQUIREMENTS GROW OUT OF A CONSENT DECREE
ENTERED INTO BY HUD EARLIER THIS YEAR AND, AS SUCH, ARE APPROVED.
THE REMAINING INFORMATION COLLECTION REQUIREMENTS APPEAR TO GO
BEYOND THAT REQUIRED BY THE CONSENT DECREE AND DO NOT SEEM THE
LEAST BURDENSOME NECESSARY TO IMPLEMENT THE ACT AND THE CONSENT
DECREE AND A THUS DISAPPROVED. HUD MUST RESUBMIT THIS INFORMATION
COLLECTION REQUEST WHEN THE RULE GOES FINAL, AND ANY CHANGES FROM
THE APPROVED INFORMATION COLLECTION REQUIREMENTS NEED TO BE FULLY
JUSTIFIED. WE ARE CONTINUING THE BURDEN AT ITS CURRENT LEVEL PLUS 1
HOUR FOR THE PROPOSED RULE'S APPROVED INFORMATION COLLECTION
REQUIREMENTS.
