SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is

Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Manufactured Home Construction and
Safety Standards Act Park Model RV Exemption Notice.
OMB Approval Number: 2502-0616.
OMB Expiration Date: January 31, 2024.
Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Form Number: None.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: For
recreational vehicles that are exempt from HUD regulation as
manufactured homes, HUD requires certification with either the American
National Standards Institute's (ANSI) standard for Park Model
Recreational Vehicles (PMRV), A119.5-15 or the National Fire Protection
Association's NFPA 1192, Standard on Recreational Vehicles, 2015
Edition. PMRVs built to ANSI A119.5-15 may exceed the RV exemption's
400 square foot threshold; a manufacturer must post notice in the home
that the structure is only designed for recreational purposes and is
not designed as a primary residence or for permanent occupancy. The
Recreation Vehicle Industry Association's (RVIA) current seal does not
satisfy HUD's standard for the manufacturer's notice. HUD requirements
provide specifics regarding the content and prominence of the notice
and which requires the notice to be prominently displayed in the unit
and delivered to the consumer before the sale transaction is complete,
regardless of whether the transaction occurs online or in-person. PMRV
manufacturers will satisfy this requirement with two printed sheets of
paper per PMRV: One in the kitchen, and one delivered to the consumer
before the transaction.
Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 25.
Estimated Number of Responses: 4,480 per annum.
Frequency of Response: Approximately 179.
Average Hours per Response: 20 seconds.
Total Estimated Burden: 25 hours.
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 through the use of 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.
