HUD Seeks Public Comment on Builders’ Certification Information Collection

HUD is seeking public input on a housing-safety information collection, not soliciting products or services for purchase. - Government buyer: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of the Assistant Secretary for Housing–FHA Commissioner. - Purpose: Reinstate with changes the information collection for Form HUD-92541, Builders Certification of Plans, Specifications, and Site. The form helps HUD assess whether sites for newly built homes financed with FHA mortgage insurance have conditions or foreseeable hazards that could threaten occupant health or safety or make a property ineligible for FHA insurance. - Estimated information-collection burden: 260,742 respondents, 130,371 responses, 0.15 hours per response, and 19,556 total burden hours. - Public input sought: Comments on whether the collection is necessary and useful, the accuracy of HUD’s burden estimates, ways to improve the collected information, and options such as electronic submission to reduce respondent burden. - OEMs and vendors: None identified. This is an information-collection notice, not a procurement.
