Short Statement:
There is a program change increase of 56 hours - two forms (PPQ 526 and 586) were left out of the previous submission because of program oversight. The response time for PPQ form 368 was re-evaluated affecting the burden hours, and the number of respondents completing forms PPQ 564, 585, 587, and 588 changed because of the accounting for public groups which was counted as a whole preROCIS. This resulted in an adjustment of -209 hours. The overall burden estimate decrease for this collection is 153 hours.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
