Short Statement:
The current OMB inventory for this collection includes 44,458 burden hours. In this submission, we are requesting a total hour burden of 22,458. This represents an adjustment decrease of -22,000 hours. The adjustment decrease is due to receiving half the number of plans BSEE received from the previous renewal cycle under 250.287; 291; 292. The current OMB non-hour cost burden inventory is $68,381. In this submission, we are requesting a total of $32,391. This represents an adjustment decrease of -$35,990. The decrease is due to receiving half the number of plans BSEE received from the previous renewal cycle under 250.287; 291; 292.
