A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: (1) Section 3 Summary Report for 
Economic Opportunities for Low- and Very Low-Income Persons and (2) 
Section 3 Complaint Register.
    OMB Approval Number: 2529-0043.
    Type of Request: Revision.
    Form Number: Form HUD 60002 and Form HUD 958.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: 
Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 
1701u) (Section 3) mandates recipients of covered HUD financial 
assistance to provide employment, training, and contracting 
opportunities, to the greatest extend feasible, to low- and very low 
income persons, particularly those who are recipients of government 
assistance for housing residing in the community where the funds are 
spent, and to the businesses that substantially employ these persons. 
The implementing regulations are found at 24 CFR part 135.
    The Section 3 Summary Report (Form HUD 60002) is used by recipients 
of HUD financial assistance (i.e., public housing agencies, 
municipalities, and property owners) to report the amount of jobs and 
contracting opportunities that have been generated from their usage of 
covered HUD financial assistance, as required at 24 CFR 135.90. Data 
collected on this form is used to assess the overall effectiveness of 
Section 3 and to make determinations of compliance with regulatory 
requirements.
    The Section 3 Complaint Register (Form HUD 958) is used by 
individuals and business owners that meet the definition of a Section 3 
resident or businesses concern set forth at 24 CFR 135.5, or their 
representatives, to file complaints alleging noncompliance with the 
regulatory requirements of Section 3 against recipients of covered HUD 
financial assistance or their contractors. Information collected on 
this form is used to inform the Department about recipients that 
potentially are not complying with 24 CFR part 135, and to initiate 
subsequent complaint investigations and compliance reviews.
    Respondents:
    A. The Section 3 Summary Report--Form HUD 60002: Staff at public 
housing agencies, municipalities and HUD multi-family property owners.
    B. The Complaint Register Form HUD 958: Low-income residents and 
businesses.
1. How is the information to be used?

A. The Section 3 Summary Report--Form HUD 60002

    The information will be used by the Department to monitor program 
recipients' compliance with requirements of Section 3. HUD headquarters 
will use the information to assess the results of the Department's 
efforts to meet the regulatory objectives; make compliance 
determinations; influence enforcement actions; and formulate policy 
decisions.

B. The Complaint Register Form HUD 958

    The Section 3 Complaint Register (Form HUD 958) is used by 
individuals and business owners that meet the definition of a Section 3 
resident or businesses concern set forth at 24 CFR 135.5, or their 
representatives, to file complaints alleging noncompliance with the 
regulatory requirements of Section 3 against recipients of covered HUD 
financial assistance or their contractors. Information collected on 
this form is used to inform the Department about recipients that 
potentially are not complying with 24 CFR part 135, and to initiate 
subsequent complaint investigations and compliance reviews.
