Abstract: This ICR covers the information collection activities
associated with the reporting and recordkeeping requirements for
sellers, lessors, and their agents' disclosure activities in target
housing including the allowance of up to ten days for an optional risk
assessment or inspection before being obligated under a purchase or
lease contract.
Form Numbers: 9600-040 and 9600-041.
Respondents/Affected Entities: Persons engaged in selling or
leasing certain residential dwellings built before 1978. The North
American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes associated with
industries most likely affected by the paperwork requirements are
provided in the ICR.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory, 40 CFR part 745.
Estimated number of respondents: 16,793,558 (total).
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated burden: 5,481,069 hours (per year). Burden is
defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $133,320,708 (per year), includes $0
annualized capital or operation and maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 471,275 hours in
the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in
the ICR currently approved by OMB. As explained in more detail in the
ICR, this decrease reflects revisions to the estimated number of
respondents based on updates to data sources, revisions to time burden
estimates due to technological change (e.g., widespread use of
electronic real estate transacting and documentation), and revisions
based on market factors (e.g., declines in the numbers of rentals and
declines in the amount of owner-occupied target housing in the market).

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
