    Title of the Collection: Application packets for Real Property for 
Public Health Purposes.
    Type of Collection: Revision.
    OMB No.: 0937-0191-30D--Office within OS--Office of Assistant 
Secretary for Administration, Program Support Center, Real Estate, 
Logistics and Operations Support, Federal Property Assistance Program.
    Abstract: The Office of Assistant Secretary for Administration, 
Program Support Center Federal Property Assistance Program is 
requesting approval by OMB on a revision. Cited, 40 U.S.C. 550, as 
amended, provides authority to the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services to convey or lease surplus real property to States and their 
political subdivisions and instrumentalities, to tax-supported 
institutions, and to nonprofit institutions which, (except for 
institutions which lease property to assist the homeless) have been 
held exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the 1954 Internal 
Revenue Code, and 501(c)(19) for veterans organizations, for public 
health purposes. Title V of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act 
(Title V) extended the Secretary's authority to

[[Page 5635]]

include homeless assistance purposes as a permissible use under public 
health. The Federal Asset and Transfer Act of 2016 (Pub. L. 114-287) 
streamlined the Title V process bifurcating the application process. 
Transfers are made to transferees at little or no cost.
    We are requesting that the collection be valid for three years.
    Type of respondent: State and local governments and non-profit 
institutions use these applications to apply for excess/surplus, 
underutilized/unutilized and off-site government real property. These 
applications are used to determine if institutions/organizations are 
eligible to purchase, lease or use property under the provisions of the 
surplus real property program. Responds are intermittent--only when an 
eligible organization requests acquisition of identified Federal 
surplus real property.
