FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY


Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency Management Agency, as part of its 
continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites 
the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity 
to comment on proposed continuing information collections. In 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3506(c)(2)(A)), this notice seeks comments concerning Mobile Homes 
Assistance.

Supplementary Information: Public Law 93-288, as amended by Public Law 
100-707, the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 
Assistance Act, Section 408, authorizes the Federal Emergency 
Management Agency (FEMA) to provide Temporary Housing Assistance. This 
type of assistance could be in the form of mobile homes, travel 
trailers, or other readily fabricated dwelling. This assistance is used 
when required to provide disaster housing for victims of federally 
declared disasters. Accordingly the FEMA Form 90-1, is designed to 
ensure sites for temporary housing units will accommodate the home and 
comply with local, State, and Federal regulations regarding the 
placement of the temporary housing unit; FEMA Form 90-31, ensures the 
landowner (if other than the recipient of the home) will allow the 
temporary housing unit to be placed on the property; and ensure that 
routes on ingress and egress to and from the property are maintained.

Collection of Information

    Title: Request for Site Inspection; Landowner's Authorization/
Ingress/Egress Agreement.
    Type of Information Collection: Reinstatement.
    OMB Number: 3067-0222.

    Abstract: Temporary Housing Assistance (Disaster Housing 
Assistance) uses mobile homes, travel trailers, or other forms of 
readily fabricated housing to provide temporary housing to eligible 
victims of federally declared disasters. The collection of this 
information is required to determine the site feasibility for the 
placement of a temporary housing unit and ensures written permission of 
the property owner to allow the unit on the land, and rights of ingress 
and egress for the unit.
