    Title of Information Collection: Data Collection for the HUD 
Secretary's Awards Including The Secretary's Award for Public-
Philanthropic Partnerships, The Secretary's Awards for Healthy Homes, 
The Secretary's Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation, The 
Secretary's Award for Planning, The Secretary's Housing Design Awards, 
and The HUD Innovation in Affordable Housing Student Design and 
Planning Competition.
    OMB Approval Number: 2528-0324.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Form Number: TBD.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: HUD 
seeks to collect information that will be used to implement the 
following HUD Secretary's Awards: (1) the Secretary's Award for Public-
Philanthropic Partnerships, (2) the Secretary's Awards for Healthy 
Homes, (3) the Secretary's Award for Excellence in Historic

Housing Design Awards, and (6) the HUD Innovation in Affordable Housing

    On an annual basis, HUD accepts nominations for the above listed

information collection across these six award programs. Each award 
recognizes awardees for their innovation and commitment to raising 
industry standards and increasing the quality of life for low- and 
moderate-income households. Below is a brief description of each of the 
six award programs.

The HUD Secretary's Award for Public-Philanthropic Partnerships

    The Public-Philanthropic Partnerships Award recognizes excellence 
in partnerships that have transformed the relationships between the 
public and philanthropic sectors and led to measurable benefits in 
housing and community development for low- and moderate-income 
families. By strengthening the connection between HUD and philanthropy, 
these awards highlight the power of collective impact that can be 
achieved through public-philanthropic partnerships between government 
entities and foundations.

The HUD Secretary's Awards for Healthy Homes

    The Healthy Homes Awards promote the innovation and partnerships 
needed to create healthy homes and communities for low-income residents 
by working across the health, environment, and housing sectors.

HUD Secretary's Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation

    The Secretary's Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation 
recognizes developers, organizations, and agencies for their success in 
advancing the goals of historic preservation while providing affordable 
housing and/or expanded economic opportunities for low-and moderate-
income families and individuals.

HUD Secretary's Planning Award

    The Secretary's Planning Award honors excellence in community 
planning that has led to measurable benefits in economic development, 
employment, education, or housing choice and mobility for low- and 
moderate-income residents. The award stresses that communities 
demonstrate how integrative planning led to tangible results, such as 
expanding the supply of available affordable housing, employment 
opportunities connected by effective transportation systems, or a host 
of community-empowering strategies. The award recognizes the planning 
discipline as an important partner in how creative housing, economic 
development, and private investments are used in--or in tandem with--a 
comprehensive community development plan.

HUD Secretary's Housing Design Awards

    The Secretary's Housing Design Awards recognize excellence in 
affordable housing design, community-based design, participatory 
design, and accessibility. These awards demonstrate that design matters 
and provide examples of important benchmarks in the housing industry.

HUD Innovation in Affordable Housing Student Design and Planning 
Competition

    The Innovation in Affordable Housing Student Design and Planning 
Competition advances design and production of livable and sustainable 
housing for low- and moderate-income people. This competition invites 
teams of graduate students from multiple disciplines to submit plans in 
response to a real-world affordable housing design issue. The 
competition encourages research and innovation in affordable housing, 
increases practitioner capacity to produce more livable and sustainable 
housing for low- and moderate-income communities through best practices 
in building design and construction, and fosters cross-cutting teamwork 
within the design and community development process.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 280.
    Estimated Time per Response: 3 hours.
    Frequency of Response: Once annually.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 840 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: The cost to respondents to complete a 
nomination is estimated at the Social and Human Service Assistant 
median hourly wage rate ($18.08) for 3 hours of work. The total 
estimated cost is $15,187.20.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: The authority to collect information is in 
Sections 501 and 502 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1970 
(Pub. L. 91-609) (12 U.S.C. 1701z-1; 1701z-2(d) and (g)).
    Respondents: Organizations.
