Short Statement: This is a revision of a collection with OMB approval as a result of a program change. The reason for the change is due to the expanded use of the CRIS forms for education and extension programs, particularly for programs that are competitive, project-based, and funded under section 3(d) of the Smith-Lever Act (7 U.S.C. 341). The program change increases the current total annual estimated burden from 64,288 to the requested 68,638 hours.
