                DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
                Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
                December 7, 2021.
                 The Department of Agriculture has submitted the following
                information collection requirement(s) to OMB for review and clearance
                under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. Comments
                are requested regarding: Whether the collection of information is
                necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
                including whether the information will have practical utility; the
                accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of
                the methodology and assumptions used; ways to enhance the quality,
                utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to
                minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
                to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
                electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
                other forms of information technology.
                 Comments regarding this information collection received by January
                10, 2022 will be considered. Written comments and recommendations for
                the proposed information collection should be submitted within 30 days
                of the publication of this notice on the following website https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular information
                collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--Open for
                Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
                 An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information
                unless the collection of information displays a currently valid OMB
                control number and the agency informs potential persons who are to
                respond to the collection of information that such persons are not
                required to respond to the collection of information unless it displays
                a currently valid OMB control number.
                Rural Housing Service
                 Title: 7 CFR 1944-I, ``Self-Help Technical Assistance Grants.''
                 OMB Control Number: 0575-0043.
                 Summary of Collection: Authorized under Public Law 90-448, section
                523 of the Title 5 Housing Act of 1949, this regulation sets forth the
                policies and procedures and delegates the authority for providing
                technical assistance funds to eligible applicants to finance programs
                of technical and supervisory assistance for the Mutual and Self-Help
                Housing (MSH) program. The MSH program affords very low and low-income
                families the opportunity for home ownership by constructing their own
                homes. The MSH program provides funds to non-profit organizations for
                supervisory and technical assistance to the homebuilding families.
                Three types of funds are available under the MSH program: (1) Technical
                assistance grants, (2) Pre-development grants and (3) Site option
                loans.
                 Need and Use of the Information: Rural Housing Service (RHS) will
                collect information from non-profit organizations that want to develop
                a MSH program in their area to increase the availability of affordable
                housing. The information is collected at the local, district and state
                levels. The information requested by RHS includes financial and
                organizational information about the non-profit organization. RHS needs
                this information to determine if the organization is capable of
                successfully carrying out the requirements of the MSH program. The
                information is collected on an as requested or needed basis. RHS has
                reviewed the program's need for the collection of information versus
                the burden placed on the public.
                 Description of Respondents: Not-for-profit institutions; State,
                Local or Tribal Government.
                 Number of Respondents: 70.
                 Frequency of Responses: Recordkeeping; Reporting: Annually.
                 Total Burden Hours: 2,380.
