Short Statement: There are adjustments resulting from revisions in estimating the number of responses. Program changes have occurred because of the addition of a program and revisions to UPD content. The cumulative effect has been a reduction on responses and hourly burden. UPD content is being revised by adding a new text option for PROTECTION OF SENSITIVE AND/OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Additionally, the former text option STAFF AND POSITION DATA has now been incorporated into a re-named text option ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY (formerly ORGANIZATIONAL PROFILES). The text option TOTAL DIRECT CHARGES, TOTAL INDIRECT CHARGES, TOTAL PROJECT COSTS was removed in its entirety. Revisions to the UPD are annotated at Attachment B, and the final UPD with internal instructions at Attachment C.
