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 the
information collection for a period of 60 days was published on May 21,
2024 at 89 FR 44698.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Housing Opportunities for Persons
with AIDS (HOPWA): Grant Reporting, Recordkeeping, and Closeout.
OMB Approval Number: 2506-0133.
Type of Request: Revision of currently approved collection.
Form Number: HUD-4153, HUD-4154, HUD-4155, SF-425, HOPWA closeout
certification (HUD-4158).
Description of the need for the information and proposed use:
The current Paperwork Reduction Act approval under OMB Control No.
2506-0133 covers reporting, record keeping, and application
requirements for both the HOPWA formula and competitive grant programs.
The competitive grant program includes new competitive grants and
renewal/replacement grants. This revision applies to reporting and
closeout requirements for all HOPWA grantees.
This submission requests to add additional data elements to form
HUD-4155, remove forms that are no longer needed, remove pre-award
information that will be covered with a child submission through the
HUD generic information collection request under OMB Control Number
2501-0044, adjust language in form HUD-4154, update form HUD-4153 to
reflect published Notices of Funding Opportunity (NOFOs), and add grant
closeout to the paperwork collection package with a new HOPWA grant
closeout form.
The addition of information collection for grant closeout will
apply to all HOPWA grantees. The use of a new HOPWA grant closeout
certification form, the SF425, and all other relevant
[[Page 68920]]
reports to the grant project will ensure grantees are able to close
active grants when the project is complete by determining that all
applicable administrative actions and all required work of the grant
have been completed by the grantee.
HUD systematically reviews and conducts data analysis in order to
prepare national and individual grantee performance profiles that are
not only used to measure program performance against benchmark goals
and objectives, but also to communicate the program's achievement and
contributions towards Departmental strategic goals. HUD plans to
continue using the data elements in this submission for these purposes.
Respondents: HOPWA competitive and renewal grant applicants, and
all HOPWA formula, competitive, and renewal grantees.

HOPWA grantees and applicants may be required to respond to more
than one piece of information collection. All annualized costs reflect
staff time spent on tasks in the table. The hourly rate of $28.73 is
based on a GS-9 for Rest of United States. 10,320 hours * $28.73 =
$296,493.
The estimated costs under this OMB approval number in this request
is lower than previous approval. This accounts for the removal of forms
HUD-40110-C/D, and removal of pre-award information. Updates on the
chart also include the addition of grant closeout, increases for a
larger number of new competitive SPNS grants, and higher hourly wage.
B. Solicitation of Public Comment
