Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Forms

Short Statement: Each person applying for an FSA Farm Loan completes the currently approved forms (referred to below as "the standard application forms"). In this revision request, FPL is adding a new streamlined form FSA-2314. This results in an increase program change of 1,890 hours and 3,781 responses just for the new streamlined form. Use of the new form will reduce responses by -21,679 and burden by -8,161 hours on the other standard forms in this collection. Therefore, the overall information collection is decreased by -6,271 hours (327,162 minus 320,891) and -17,898 responses (685,441 minus 667,543).
