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: May 31, 2020.
Type of Request: Extension 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 (i.e., affected public): Business or other for-profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 22.
Estimated Number of Responses: 4,000 per annum.
Frequency of Response: Approx. 181.
Average Hours per Response: 20 seconds.
Total Estimated Burden: 22 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.
