Short Statement:
There has been a slight increase in the burden hours due to an adjustment. Previously, the 100 burden hours associated with FTA's use of the Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) Standard Form 424 (grants.gov application form) were reassigned to HHS. Agencies are now required to include any hours associated with the use of a common form, such as HHS's Standard Form 424, in their own burden calculation. As a result, FTA is adding the 100 burden hours from the use of this form to the burden hours previously requested.
