Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: We are estimating 55,674 responses, totaling 47,331 annual burden hours for this collection. This is an increase of 5,764 responses and 3,451 annual burden hours from our previous request. We are reporting 45 responses totaling 104 burden hours as a program change associated with three new applications (3-200-77, 3-200-78, and 3-200-79) and one report (3-202-14). The nonhour cost burden associated with this program change is $2,500. The remaining increase is a result of adjustments to our estimates, based on experience over the past 3 years. The reduction in nonhour burden costs of $273,700 from our previous request is primarily because our previous request erroneously included application processing fees for exempt entities. However, a portion of the decrease in the nonhour cost burden is due to the removal of two forms (3-200-69 and 3-200-70) from this collection and a reduction in the number of Canada goose permits.
