    Information Collection Request Title: Application packets for Real 
Property for Public Health Purposes.
    Abstract: The Office of Assistant Secretary for Administration, 
Program Support Center Federal Property Assistance Program is 
requesting approval by OMB on a revision. Cited, 40 U.S.C. 550, as 
amended, provides authority to the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services to convey or lease surplus real property to States and their 
political subdivisions and instrumentalities, to tax-supported 
institutions, and to nonprofit institutions which (except for 
institutions which lease property to assist the homeless) have been 
held exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the 1954 Internal 
Revenue Code, and 501(c)(19) for veterans organizations, for public 
health purposes. Title V of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act 
(Title V) extended the Secretary's authority to include homeless 
assistance purposes as a permissible use under public health. The 
Federal Asset and Transfer Act of 2016 (Pub. L. 114-287) streamlined 
the Title V process bifurcating the application process. Transfers are 
made to transferees at little or no cost.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: State and local 
governments and non-profit institutions use these applications to apply 
for excess/surplus, underutilized/unutilized and off-site government 
real property. These applications are used to determine if 
institutions/organizations are eligible to purchase, lease or use 
property under the provisions of the surplus real property program.
    The total annual burden hours estimated for this ICR are summarized 
in the table below.
