Short Statement: NIOSH submits this revision to improve its description of information collected to ensure that information collected from human participants while testing respirators to the required performance standards is sufficiently described. Previously, NIOSH included its non-research determination, clearly indicating the involvement of human participants. However, past information collection packages did not describe the data being collected from these human participants or the burden to them as individuals.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $6,363,646
