Short Statement: This request reflects a decrease of 497,229 hours (from 3,809,753 hours to 3,312,524 hours) in the total estimated respondent burden from that currently in the OMB inventory. This decrease reflects: EPA's revisions to the estimated number of respondents based on the number of respondents reporting to the Agency under the prior information collection; EPA's revisions to per-activity burden estimates to simplify some assumptions and to make estimation methods consistent; and characterization as Agency burden some burden elements that had previously been described as respondent burden. The Supporting Statement provides details on the change in burden estimate. The change is an adjustment.
