Notice of Submission of Proposed Information Collection to OMB; Builder's Certification/Guarantee and New Construction Subterranean Termite Soil Treatment Record

Zusammenfassung

The proposed information collection requirement described below has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act. The Department is soliciting public comments on the subject proposal. Builders must certify HUD insured structures to be free of termite hazards. Authorized pest control companies must perform treatments for termites. The builder guarantees the treated area against infestation for one year. A reassessment of the burden has led to the determination that the information collected is a standard and usual business practice. The collection of this information is an industry wide standard; not solely an FHA requirement.
