SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in
Section A. The Federal Register notice that solicited public comment on

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Proposal: Inspector Candidate Assessment Questionnaire.
OMB Approval Number: 2577-0243.
Type of Request: Reinstatement with change of a previously approved
collection.
Form Number: Form HUD 50002A and Form HUD 50002B--HFA.
Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use: To
meet the requirements of HUD's Uniform Physical Condition Standards
(UPCS), the Physical Condition of Multifamily Properties and the Public
Housing Assessment System (PHAS) regulations, the Department conducts
physical condition inspections of approximately 14,000 multifamily and
public housing properties annually. HUD uses contract inspectors that
are trained and certified in the UPCS protocol by HUD to conduct UPCS
inspections. Individuals who wish to be trained and certified UPCS by
HUD are requested to electronically submit the questionnaire via the
internet. The questionnaire provides HUD with basic knowledge of an
individual's inspection skills and abilities.
As part of aligning REAC UPCS inspections with those conducted by
state Housing Finance Agencies, state HFA staff also may fill out a
form for information purposes only prior to attending the UPCS
training.
Respondents: Applicants to the UPCS inspector certification program
and state HFA staff.
