Short Statement:
The FY 2006 Estimated Annual Burden Hours (195,000) was reported incorrectly through an error in calculation. In addition, with the inclusion of the Lessons Learned System, the FY 2003 and FY 2006 data was generated from historic database records. The correct number that should have been reported should have been 170,370 estimated annual burden hours. Despite the discrepancy in reporting on the FY 2006 estimated annual burden hours, it did not have an impact on the estimated annual burden hours for each Collection reported, thus the package has been reduced by 125,440 burden hours. These changes are a result of the implementation of information technology to electronically collect the information. The Office of Health, Safety and Security in response to one of the Presidents Management Agenda items, Expanded Electronic Government, improved the design and capabilities of several systems that collect and report information. In addition, web enabling technology was implemented that permitted improved processing, tighter security, and better integration. A major Department Directive was modified that included reporting threshold changes and elimination of unnecessary approval steps. These changes and improvements significantly reduced the number of annual burden hours.
