Short Statement: We are reporting 227,586 responses totaling 144,021 annual burden hours. This is an adjustment decrease of 200 responses and 50 burden hours from what is currently approved for this information collection. Based on our experience in administering this collection, we made minor adjustments in the number of respondents and completion times. We decreased the completion time for the sandhill crane survey to more accurately reflect the time it takes the average crane hunter to fill out the form based on the number of birds harvested. The original calculation did not include the lower hunting success of Alaskan crane hunters compared to mid-continent sandhill crane hunters.
