    Type of Request: Revision of currently approved collection.
    Form Number: N/A.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: PD&R 
intends to establish cooperative agreements with qualified for-profit 
and nonprofit research organizations and universities to conduct 
research, demonstrations, and data analysis. This information 
collection includes the post-award materials that cooperative agreement 
recipients will be required to submit to PD&R over the course of the 
period of performance of their award. PD&R will use these deliverables 
to monitor the progress of the research being carried out under the 
cooperative agreement and to monitor the use of the funding and

selected to receive an award under HUD's Research, Evaluation, and 
Demonstration Cooperative Agreements.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: HUD anticipates up to 33

over the three years covered by this ICR. Recipients of the cooperative 
agreements will be the sole members of the affected public for the 
reporting requirement.
