Title: Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition
Regulations for Federal and Federally Assisted Programs.
Background: This program implements 42 U.S.C. 4602, concerning
acquisition of real property and relocation assistance for persons
displaced by Federal and federally assisted programs. It prohibits the
provision of relocation assistance and payments to persons not legally
present in the United States (with certain exceptions). The information
collected consists of a certification of residency status from affected
persons to establish eligibility for relocation assistance and
payments. Displacing agencies will require each person who is to be
displaced by a Federal or federally assisted project, as a condition of
eligibility for relocation payments or advisory assistance, to certify
they are lawfully present in the United States.
Respondents: Federal agencies, 50 State Transportation Departments,
the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, and the
Virgin Islands, local government agencies, persons administering
projects or programs and airport sponsors receiving financial
assistance for expenditures of Federal funds on acquisition and
relocation payments and required services to displaced persons that are
subject to the Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition
Policies Act of 1970, as amended, for file maintenance and for annual
statistical reports.
Frequency: Annually.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: The estimated average burden
per response varies. For the respondents, it takes 15 minutes to
complete the relocation certification. It takes 1 hour for the file
record keeping.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: The estimated total annual
burden hours are 10,000 hours, including the 2,000 hours for
respondents and 8,000 for the file record keeping.
Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including: (1) Whether the proposed
collection is necessary for the FHWA's performance; (2) the accuracy of
the estimated burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4) ways that
the burden could be minimized, including the use of electronic
technology, without reducing the quality of the collected information.
The agency will summarize and/or include your comments in the request
for OMB's clearance of this information collection.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter
35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1.48.
Issued on: April 26, 2024.
