days with the following conditions. HUD must explain the basis for
this information collection's burden estimate. Although HUD has
extensively modified this information collection (including
increasing the number of questions on the questionnaire), the
information collection's burden estimate has not changed. Also, HUD
must indicate the need to request information regarding the
respondent's position and employment (i.e., questions 1-3). These
questions do not appear relevant given the purpose of thi survey:
to assess the quality of technical assistance provided to the
respondent.
