SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is

Section A.

A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Contractor's Requisition-Project 
Mortgages.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0028.
    Type of Request: Reinstatement, with change.
    OMB Expiration Date: September 30, 2018.
    Form Number: HUD-92448.
    Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use: Form 
HUD-92448 is used by Contractors to request insured mortgage proceeds 
for construction costs. The information regarding completed work items 
is used by the Multifamily Hub Centers to ensure that payments from 
mortgage proceeds are made for work completed in a satisfactory manner. 
The work must be inspected and approved by a HUD Field Office inspector 
and an architect not employed by HUD. To ensure compliance with 
prevailing wage rates, the Field Office uses the certification on form 
HUD-92448 regarding prevailing wages. If the collection of information 
was not conducted, disbursement of mortgage proceeds and compliance 
with prevailing wage rates could not be monitored. 29 CFR part 3.3 
requires the contractor to submit an executed document certifying 
adherence to requirements of the Davis Bacon and Related Acts (DBRA) 
and the Copeland ``Anti-Kickback'' Act regarding wages paid to 
employees. The form is completed by the contractor and approved by the 
project architect and a HUD Field Office inspector and must be signed. 
The contractor submits the completed form to HUD for review and 
determination of acceptability/unacceptability. Section 207(b) of the 
National Housing Act (Pub. L. 479, 48 Stat. 1246, 12 U.S.C. 1701 et 
seq.) authorizes the Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban 
Development (HUD) to insure mortgages (including advances on such 
mortgages during construction) for construction of rental housing 
projects. Section 212 of the National Housing Act prevents the 
Secretary of HUD from insuring a project unless the principal 
contractor files a prevailing wage certificate. The requirements are 
set forth in 24 CFR 200.33, Labor Standards, for the insurance of 
advances and certification of compliance with labor standards and 
prevailing wage requirements.
    Respondents: Business or other for profit.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 213.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 2,556.
    Frequency of Response: 12.
    Average Hours per Response: 6.
    Total Estimated Burden: 15,336.

B. Solicitation of Public Comment

    This notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and 
affected parties concerning the collection of information described in 
Section A on the following:
    (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for 
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
    (2) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information;
    (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
    (4) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond; including using appropriate automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., 
permitting electronic submission of responses.
    HUD encourages interested parties to submit comment in response to 
these questions.
