Short Statement:
The burden included in this request based on the average of FY2007, FY2008 and FY2009 reflects l1,916 burden hours. Following is an analysis of the differences: (a) The addition of burden hours for prescreening in 20 new PSUs and rotation in one-sixth projected sample size in 55 continuing PSUs results in (+766 average annual hours (AAH)). (b) The addition of burden hours for screening in three new PSUs, rotation in one-sixth projected sample size in 55 continuing PSUs, and new construction (NC) in the original and augmentation sample results in (+2,659 AAH). (c) The addition of burden hours for initiation in three new PSUs, rotation in one-sixth projected sample size in 55 continuing PSUs, and NC in the original and augmentation sample results in (+1,082 AAH). (d) The small addition of burden hours for long pricing caused by the rotation in one-sixth projected sample size in 55 continuing PSUs, discontinuation of pricing in fifteen PSUs in the existing sample, a small addition of long pricing in 20 new PSUs and NC results in (+3 AAH). (e) The small addition of burden hours for short pricing caused by the rotation in one-sixth projected sample size in 55 continuing PSUs, discontinuation of pricing in fifteen PSUs in the existing sample, a small addition of short pricing in 20 new PSUs and NC results in (+76 AAH).
