Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Regulations

Short Statement: This proposed revision would result in a program change increase of 6,114 average annual burden hours [60,418 proposed average annual burden - 54,304 currently approved annual burden hours = 6,114]. The change in burden hours has occurred to recognize the increase in the number of respondents filing Form BMC-91X that would result from the proposed requirement for private hazmat and exempt for-hire interstate carriers to have their insurers file information on their insurance coverage and the addition of freight forwarders to the BMC-84 and BMC-85 as required by MAP-21. However, respondents costs will decrease from $905,709 to $110. The previous ICR submission incorrectly classified labor costs as a cost to respondents. The costs were adjusted downward to reflect only the operating and maintenance (O&M) costs associated with the rule.
