This collection is reflective of the changes to the Section 3 regulation, published in the **Federal Register** 9/29/2020. The completion and submission of this Section 3 Utilization Plan meets the provisions of Section 3 found in 24 CFR part 75, which is the current regulation published pursuant to requirements in 12 U.S.C. 1701u, for the entities identified within this plan. Grantees of HUD funded projects can use this as a sample tool to document their Section 3 labor hours. This collection is not a requirement but is to be used as a sample if employers do not already have a process in place to document Section 3 labor hours. The Section 3 regulation requires each recipient to maintain adequate records demonstrating compliance with the regulation.
