inspection Technical Reviews and Database Adjustments.
    OMB Approval Number: 2577-0257.

    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
collection of this information supports HUD's ongoing mission to 
provide safe, decent and affordable housing to lower income households. 
Accurate assessment information is necessary. PHAs performing poorly 
may be subject to additional reporting requirements, may receive HUD 
assistance, and are subject to possible penalties. For the Office of 
Housing, accurate scores are vital to their monitoring and compliance 
efforts. Unacceptable property scores result in automatic penalties and 
referral for enforcement actions.
    Pursuant to Sec.  6(j)(2)(A)(iii) of the United States Housing Act 
of 1937, as amended, HUD established procedures in the Public Housing 
Assessment System (PHAS) rule for a public housing agencies (PHAs) to 
appeal a troubled assessment designation (Sec.  902.69). The PHAS rule 
in Sec. Sec.  902.24 and 902.68 also provides that under certain 
circumstances PHAs may submit a request for a database adjustment and 
technical review, respectively, of physical condition inspection 
results.
    Pursuant to the Office of Housing Physical Condition of Multifamily 
Properties regulation at Sec.  200.857(d) and (e), multifamily property 
owners also have the right, under certain circumstances, to submit a 
request for a database adjustment and technical review, respectively, 
of physical condition inspection results.
    Appeals, when granted, change assessment scores and designations; 
database adjustments and technical reviews, when granted, change 
property scores. These changes result in more accurate assessments.
    Section 902.60 of the PHAS rule also provides that, in extenuating 
circumstances, PHAs may request an extension of time to submit required 
unaudited financial information. When granted, an extension of time 
postpones the imposition of sanctions for a late submission.
    Respondents (i.e. affected public): Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) 
and Multifamily Housing property owners (MF POs).
