Short Statement:
This revised submission of 0581-0125 includes the merging of the DOV-0581-0234 collection reflecting a burden increase of 5,038 hours but a decrease of 15,218 responses as a program change. There is an adjustment decrease in burden and responses for 0581-0125. The overall decrease in responses to both collections is due to a market trend to decentralize from terminal markets offering specialized products to a less costly suburban location where companies can provide a variety of products to customers. Traditional terminal markets have seen a decline in the number of responses. This submission is supported by data in our Fresh Electronic Inspection Resource/Reporting system.
