Short Statement:
There are no burden changes due to discretionary matters; however the agency notes that a conforming change to the reginfo.gov database was inadvertently overlooked when the supporting statement was revised to account for the full burden imposed by the ICR during the last clearance cycle. The database has now been updated to reflect that activity. In addition, the initial ICR included burden for a one-time reprogramming event that has now occurred. The burden is now removed.
